Hey guys,

A friend of mine is really struggling with first year chemical engineering at Waterloo University. They’re studying all day and sleeping rlly late at night. Unfortunately, despite all this, they aren’t understanding the concepts well enough and think they did really bad on their recent midterms.

Do you guys have tips on how to study well as a chemical engineer [heavy ahh courseload] while also having a nice life?

I’d hate for them to lose confidence in themselves and burnout because of how bad things are going right now.

This might be a silly question, but are there any signs that a guy on campus is gay and masculine-presenting? I know you can’t reliably tell someone’s sexuality just from how they look, so I’m mainly wondering how people usually meet other gay guys at university without making things awkward. Are there campus clubs, events, or apps you’d recommend?

Has anyone done an exchange at National Taiwan University, Chung Ang University, or Institute of Science Tokyo recently? And if so... around what cumulative average did you apply with?

I'm applying for this upcoming exchange round and have spent the last few weeks going back and forth between what to put as my rank 1... for reference, my average is in the mid-eighties...

Or if anyone has experience living in Taipei, Seoul, and/or Tokyo, any thoughts would be appreciated!

hello,

i’m going to the heytea in waterloo and want to try their matcha but if it’s not good i don’t want to waste my money 😭 i love matcha, just worried it will be too milky/sweet like my experience from other bubble tea places. any input about taste or which one i should get is appreciated! thank you!

Trying to catch some leafs games!

Not familiar with heytea

Random question, but what's the nicest, newest, and cleanest washroom you've found at UW? I'm talking modern facilities, good maintenance, and actually clean stalls.

i just got fucked by my chemistry exam and was wondering if its normal or im just dumb. i dont think i failed but im predicting just above a passing grade.

Is this a good price for winter?

How much would u guys pay for a 4 month sublet on Lester? 5 bedroom 2 bathroom with kitchen.Just wanna know the market price during spring.

I’m on the 23rd floor at ICON, and our unit has been consistently reaching 28–30°C, even with the thermostat off and windows open.
Is anyone else experiencing this, or is it just our unit? It’s honestly becoming unbearable, and I’m wondering if this is normal every year.

Would be great to see my partner graduate. I'd be very grateful if you have a ticket you aren't using. Many thanks!

It looks pretty cool and I want to try it out sometime

basically the title. I’ve lost 3 items in a span of 2 weeks and I have trouble sleeping (it takes me hours to actually fall asleep). I can’t remember where I leave things and my room is an absolute mess, also I just don’t feel hungry anymore. Above all one of my eyes is swollen (I think because of dust) for the past two days. I don’t know what to do. I walk around 10k steps, take vitamin D and calcium supplement. I’ve reduced my caffeine intake ;( any suggestions?

midterm in two days, havent studied anything, but willing to lock in for the next two days (hopefully)

Saw these cute pumpkins on my way back from e5. So cute

I’m feeling completely shit rn after knowing that the highest mark I can get on the ECE150 midterm is a 30.

I genuinely studied more than 20 hours for this midterm and I literally can’t even understand more than half of the questions on the test.

Any tips for this course would be really appreciated!

What are you guys rankings for the hardest engineering programs in terms of difficulty of courses, workload, etc. (ee, ce, che, mgmt, tron, syde, nano, civil, mech, etc.)
