Climb up!

From the ongoing RTW trip of
When we climb up a mountain my husband () sings this song, by Vysotski, about how to tell if a person is a real friend by the way they behave in the mountains… You think he is trying to tell me something? In any case it definitely makes [...]

co-op probability – for those of you who live in them now

Currently I’m listed around #10 on the waiting list to get into co-ops for the fall. The ‘the list’ is only one gender, so I guess more like #20.
Should I be madly scrambling to find a place to live for the fall right about now…what are my chances, more or less? Maybe I’m being optimistic, [...]

Resurrection College

Hi everyone,
I just found out a couple days ago that I’m accepted to Waterloo and I’m transfering from the U of C. But, I have no where to stay as I’m a transfer student. I’m really hesitant to live off-campus since I’ve only just finished my first year of uni and I definately don’t feel [...]

Housemate wanted. – Update: Too late, moving on.

Update: It’s now too late to get an extension on the lease on the house. I’m now actively seeking a place of my own.
Thanks to affairs far too complicated to go into I am urgently needing another housemate or slightly less urgently needing a place to live. Ideally I’d like to remain in Oblivion, which [...]

Grad photos?

Hello all, since I am not going to be attending my graduation in November my parents have sternly told me that I need to have grad photos done OR ELSE (whatever that means). Soooo does anyone know anything about getting these taken? The website seems to imply that I need to be at [...]

Room available for the fall

Hello,
My friends have lost a room mate who will not be returning to queens in the fall and there’s now a room available!
It’s a three bedroom apartment with two third year guys living there now and they’re looking for a guy or girl to fill the third room. The guys are really nice and laid [...]

Toronto on the 14th of September?

I know asking about metal, on livejournal, particularly to Queen’s students, is like asking a Stegosaurus about its opinions on bacon vs. ground beef at a BBQ sauce convention, but bear with me. I’m wondering if anyone’s planning on going to the Epica concert on the 14th at the Funhaus in Toronto.
Seems rather silly to [...]

Do not desert the desert !

From the ongoing RTW trip of
I fear and love the desert. Turn away, and all you see in front is yours. Not a soul. Beauty. Fear… I’m I alone here? Where is my sunscreen?! ;)
Below are a few deserts in South America I recommend visiting.
Huakachina (Peru). Oasis town – just like in the movies!
Unbelievable [...]
