How to Make the Most of your City

13 Jul

I was really worried about moving to Ottawa.

Lies People Tell You about Non-Christian Colleges

7 Mar

So is it just me, or are Christian colleges really pushed in the church community, while secular college is shamed?

It’s like people assume that as soon as you leave the little Christian bubble you’ve been raised in, you’re going to jump straight into a life of sex, drugs, and alcohol. Which I think is stupid, actually. I mean, if all the adults in the church think that we have no backbone and can’t stand up for ourselves, why don’t they try to do something about it instead of just tell us about the impending doom that lies ahead as soon as we graduate?

5 Things To Do Before Leaving Home

28 Jan

Transition from life at home to life on your own can be hard. Everything’s different–all of a sudden you’re treated like an adult. You have bills, you have decisions, you have deadlines–everything is different.

To be honest, it can feel like you’re being pushed off the high dive before you’re ready.

But it can be made an easier transition! So now, in January, before you get super busy with the actual “moving out” part of moving out, take these last few months at home and really focus on what’s important. Trust me–do it while you still have time. [Read more…]

Why I Fail at Studying

10 Sep

I have been in university for exactly a week now.

And I figured it was time to actually post again. No, I have not died, I have not given up–just moving is extremely stressful and a lot busier than I thought it would be. So I figured that my first post as a university student would just explain the misadventures I’ve had with studying so far.
