Walk through campus a few times a day, and you’ll usually hear a the same phrases being thrown about amongst students. Complaints about sleep deprivation, disappointments in grades, and other common student topics of discussions are expected. However, there are a few things you will never hear at the University of Waterloo. Here’s a few we thought of:
No one is ever ready for their exams at the University of Waterloo. Add up the amount of time you actually spent studying, the number of classes you attended, and the amount of course material you truly retained to determine exactly why that is…and get back to us!
I’m not sleeping? Are you sleeping? I love this professor! The way she reads the slides straight off the PowerPoint about grass is so exciting! Wow!
You just had a breakfast sandwich from Tim Horton’s but your friend’s proposal to grab an early lunch from the University Plaza is an offer you just can’t pass. It’s all good, neither could we!
It’s due tomorrow. Don’t ask me if I finished it. Rather, ask me if I started. You know the motto folks, due tomorrow- do tomorrow! No matter how big the assignment.
Despite hitting that snooze button a total of 6 billion times in one morning, it seems that students at the UW never truly get enough sleep. Maybe it’s because of all the late night ‘studying’ (read: Netflix binging) but we can’t be to sure.
Wait, so you didn’t get enough sleep last night and you have a six page paper due tomorrow? And now you want to tell me you ‘don’t drink coffee’? I’m going to go ahead and call bull sh*t on that!
They should have a warning sign about these geese in the application package. I mean, the things don’t even fly south for the winter! What kind of blasphemy…
I don’t need Google to finish my assignments, write my essays, or clear up the concept that my TA spent 30 minutes trying to teach us. I got this! Said no one. Ever.
PAS 3405? Yeah, that’s up the stairs, down the hall, past the thing with the thing on it, and then to the right of that other thing with that bigger thing on it. You’ll find it, no problem! It’s not like the building is shaped like a brain or anything.
Can’t relate, fam. There’s nowhere I’d rather be.
