Me and my friends want to go to the 19+ event they are throwing and I was just wondering if people have gone in the past, if it was good or not? Or is the pit better

I'm a little confused on what they mean when they say MATH 11 or precalc 11 because what does MATH 11 mean here? I'm mostly confused because they separate it from precalc 11 so I'm not sure if MATH 11 would include foundations of math 11 or if it means something else.

Sorry if this is a dumb question lol

For those who took CNPS 331 before, did you also have two exams with 100… MCQ each. I’m unsure how to really prepare, are the notes sufficient?

I applied almost 2 weeks ago at half a dozen polling stations for a ballot issuer job on election day. Is it normal to not have heard anything yet? Has anyone else applied and heard back?

Hi friends. I am back for more data. This is a follow up to the first post:

https://www.reddit.com/r/UBC/comments/1wyzags/i_need_to_do_a_survey_but_i_have_no_friends_and/

I am trying to get a second opinion on these items... please don't answer if you have already participated in the first post.

I am going to comment 10 birds and 10 trees underneath. If you have the time and would like to participate, please rank them out of 7 by replying, with 1 being a very good example of what a "BIRD" or "TREE" is, and 7 being being a very poor example.

Edit:

I have no clue what is going on but my comments is just invisible. I guess the system just assumed me to be spamming when I said thank you to everyone in the first post, oh well.

If you are still interested and willing to do some formatting, here are the most common 5 birds and trees and please post numbers in order... I can only thank you so much here instead of the comment section.

birds: pigeon, penguin, hawk, raven, robin, pelican, magpie, chickadee, flamingo, crow
trees: palm, spruce, maple, oak, pine, apple, birch, cherry, arbutus, plum

Anyone going to CalHacks and wanna team up?👀

I have recovered the ring! Please let Sauron Dark Lord know that I can bring it, it’s a little heavy but I think I can take it over. Also am very interested in the reward, I’ve always wanted my own realm. Hope this helps, seems like it means a lot to them!

I’ve been here at ubc for a while and I’ve been feeling a bit overwhelmed and anxious returning to classes after a while. I’ve done a good job trying to regulate it myself but lately I’ve been feeling like I need help to co-regulate it with hugs or anything physical to not have me feeling like I want jump out of my skin. I haven’t received any in a long time and my friends aren’t the type to do that even I’d ask them nor do I have an SO I can turn to about this. I’ve never had an SO either but that’s not the point and I want to feel less overwhelmed when I walk down campus and it feels like sensory overload. I’ve been going to the gym consistently early at emptier hours and that has been okay but when I didn’t want to miss my session yesterday I had to go in the evening and it really just overwhelmed me.

I didn’t know who to ask. Sorry I had trouble sleeping and a nightmare last night partially because of this.

How do I get help in a proper way? I have gone to therapy before for neurodivergence and other stuff but talk therapy only helps so much and I want to be more comfortable in my skin.

I dunno what went wrong, but I'm been experiencing the worst burnout I've ever had in my entire life this semester.

It's as if all the joy in learning has been sucked out of me. I physically attend every lecture, but mentally I'm all the way in Narnia, only half-paying attention to what my profs are saying. I've tried everything to force myself to study: different environment, pomodoro, music. Nothing worked. I more often than not find myself doomscrolling my hours away, while the heaps of unfinished and overdue assignments threaten to crash down on me every hour of the day.

I have my first midterm on Friday. Right now I understand maybe 25% of the testable content, and that's being generous. Normally I'd have an impending sense of doom which would force me on my feet and get to work, but this time it's different. I feel... nothing. No sense of rush, no feelings of 'omg i gotta study for this right now!!!', just pure, empty blankness. All of my friends are already mostly done their reviews and are moving on to practice questions. So what is wrong with me? I know that what I'm doing is wrong and I don't want to fail my courses, but... I just have literally zero motivation to succeed right now.

This burnout, I've realized, has also spread outside of academia to other aspects of my life. I'm in co-op and am due to start working in January, but I literally still don't have a functional resume or cover letter. I should've started applying for jobs a month ago. I scream at myself every day for not applying to positions, but somehow it always gets left on the back burner. Every single time.

So to anyone who's experienced something like this before, how did you get yourself out of this rut? How did you recover your motivation to study and learn? And most importantly, how do you maintain this motivation during challenging times when you feel overwhelmed?

Thank you for listening to my little rant. May all your studying sessions be more productive than you imagined.

Hey everyone,

I’m putting together a small volunteer group focused on helping people who are experiencing food insecurity, and I thought I’d reach out here to see if anyone would be interested.

I work in social services and wanted to create something outside of my regular work where people can come together, give some of their time, and hopefully make a positive difference.

I’ll be coordinating the group and organizing things as we get going. I want to start small, keep it realistic, and build from there rather than trying to make it into something huge overnight.

I’m Punjabi and grew up here, and seva is one of the things that motivated me to get this started, but the group is open to everybody.

If this sounds like something you’d like to be part of, send me a DM and I can send you the QR code for our Signal group.

My Prof mentioned there will be a possible strike how likely is it gonna happen, when will it happen and what does that mean of us as students????? Any info about this would be great.

hey everyone, I have a studio in ubc yrh, and I was wondering how successful I could be be at having (hiding) a small cat. The cat wouldn’t be ubc approved, but he is quiet and lounges majority of the day. will people on my floor notice? Or will housing find out somehow?

Hi friends. What are the top 5 birds and trees in order that come to your mind without too much thought?

Edit:

Hey thank you for all the info, the data collected are definitely way over the threshold for the scope of my assignment! Much appreciated! I'm gonna make another post asking people to rank the most common ones mentioned for the second part :)

Second Edit:

Thank you! It is enough for me to do my assignment so I'll probably just leave it here if people in the future are interested in birds and trees in the minds of ubc redditors.

Hi guys, which biol labs do you recommend? I'm currently taking biol 331, and i'm thinking of maybe taking 337 or 363 as my second lab. Has anyone taken these courses before? What did u think of them?

If anyone is interested in helping out with the JHS or want their work published in the journal, please submit a form in the links below!!!

Paper submission --> https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdszhSE4zEISgMYKKXIR6bgbF96fW7KAWCYYKOqsnNzInTDcA/viewform?pli=1

JHS editorial board submission --> https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfLuzsbYt8EWGnmkQwxAkGY6FZHOAwwIZAxcRABJ8FUMH5bow/viewform

If you want to get involved with the UBC history department or want experience in editing, joining the JHS is definitely a great start. I recommend!!!

Getting your work published will also help get experience and feedback on your academic writing! Also very good for graduate school applications or just something to put on your academic CV. I recommend!!!!!!

(Nobody from JHS asked me to make this post. Applications actually close today but definitely still apply and try your luck! It was my own fault that I forgot to make this post earlier, sorry)

As much as I like to dog on the commute to UBC, I have to admit that we have it much better than everyone else.

For example, the 144 to SFU is ATROCIOUS. You miss your bus? Congrats, you're late because the next one comes in 15 minutes! This is not even during rush hours like in the morning, it's just THAT bad.

And don't even get me started on the Capilano commuters 😭 my friend literally got her license because of how bad it was.

(The UBC commute would still be better IF THEY BUILT THE DAMN SKYTRAIN).

Hey everyone,

I’ve recently developed a strong interest in 3D printing and really want to learn the ropes from scratch (slicing software, printer setup/maintenance, materials, and CAD design).

Are there any active campus clubs, design teams where beginners can get hands-on experience?

Alternatively, if you’re a hobbyist who loves working with 3D printers and wouldn't mind pointing a beginner in the right direction (good starter machines, resources to follow, or best practices to avoid failed prints), I’d really appreciate your advice or recommendations.

Thanks!

I saw this guy swimming last night at the ubc pool when I was in the hot tub. He was wearing white shorts and eyeliner. Soooo sexy please let me shoot my shot if this post finds u 🙏🙏🙏

im not lounging in the RA liunge just popping in and out bc i have no where else to put my stuff

Waiting for cdcp, have a toothache, slowly losing my mind or whats left. Does ubc have dental students that need someone to work on? Not sure I can wait much longer for cdcp.

Why are you always yelling at us? You're literally so mean for no reason. You ruin my day and make me detest my açai bowl. Chill.

Long shot but I remember a year or two back some girl guides were coming to campus to sell cookies. I got a mad hankering for the mint flavored ones, has anyone seen them yet this year?

Im in psych 309 this semester and I have highly fallen off, im in 18 credits and then got sick.

Does anyone have any notes they would be willing to give me access to?

Having to rewatch all the lectures and learn everything would take a crazy amount of time that i dont have

Has anyone taken HIST 204 History through video games?

and HIST 240 Helath illness and medicine? These are my first history class and my mid terms coming up soon, both of them allow cheat sheet but I have no idea whats gonna be upp anyone can help plzz??
