University!!!

What would life be like without applications, homework, tests, labs, grumpy professors, and stress? I just finished my first year at university (the University of Alberta) and I have decided that a web page with helpful hints about how to survive student life (and living away from home) might be useful. If you're already in university and are living away from home, send me your tips! If you are just in the process of applying and are getting ready for the big move, check out these pages:

THE AUTHOR OF THIS PAGE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ACTIONS TAKEN BY PEOPLE WHO VISIT THIS PAGE. IF SOMETHING I HAVE IN THIS PAGE DOES NOT AGREE WITH YOUR EXPERIENCE, DO WHAT SEEMS MOST APPROPRIATE.
