It is pretty odd, though, that the campus is so "poor", isn't it? Perhaps it is being mismanaged... Have a great week ahead and have fun in class :D!

I don't know if it's gonna be like that the whole year. It was pretty quiet this summer when I took my class, but then, it was summer. I do believe Ottawa U. isn't very well-organized. @Agnes - I perfectly understand, I do the same. And tea is always comforting... @barbara - Oh yes it is so bordélique that I thought the place was ran by French! :lol: @shionge - They should expect it. I think there are 35,000 students in total, but the campus is big. @Bluefish - Oh, so the books things is not just Ottawa U... I wish I could have photocopied the book. Last summer, I bought mine second hand on Kijiji, but this time I need a brand new edition. That said, I may keep the book because it is very good (yes, I know I'm weird!). @Tulsa Getleman - What??? Male don't use toilet paper???? I don't want to know, I don't want to know (running away with my hands on my ears) :lol: :lol: @Final_Transit - Oh, I always ditched a class because of a conflict in my schedule (with work). It was hell... I queued for two hours to be told I should have dropped the class on my intranet. Errr... I wish, but the intranet crashed two days ago... :lol: @silverneurotic - I always check online for books now, especially on Kijiji. @Seraphine - I think you said it! I didn't realize it before because when I went to uni. in France I was straight out of high school. But I get the meaning now! @Seb - Yeah, this manager won't be promoted anytime soon! :lol: @Celine - Always useful, isn't it! @Linguist-in-Waiting — No, the cleaning staff isn’t on strike… at least not that I know of.

'Coffee people' (what else can I call them?) in my class don't even stand in the queues in centralized coffee shops. Now I am hoping that you don't have to book an appointment for career counseling or changing courses or something like that because the last I heard, people were given a date 2 weeks later.

I learned on how to safe money at Uni. I get photocopied textbooks for a very cheap price...I would never buy used or new textbooks anymore. It's a total rip off and they only give you few dollar when you sell them to the bookstore. At the beginning of a new semester the main entrance of the bookstore is blocked so we have to do the line up from another from and wait patiently in line to pay. But we don't have to leave our bags though. I sort of miss University life now... :( It’s weird that coffee shops will run out of things. I learned on how to safe money at Uni.

It always run of toilet paper here Singapore ;) Always carry extra tissue paper. This is so weird, they didn’t expect the high volume of human traffic in the campus?
