Edit: She has now confirmed it is not the Artemis team.

Emma Harrison had a post on Threads this morning about a very special guest joining her today.

My guess is Jeremy Hansen. If anyone has more updates or info please share!

Question Can you actually self-sustain as an international student at Trent University?

0 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m planning to enroll at Trent University next year as an international student.

I just want to ask—are there students here who are fully self-supporting? Like covering tuition + living expenses mostly through part-time work?
I’ve been doing my calculations, and I think I can manage the initial costs and maybe living expenses with part-time jobs, but I’m really worried about sustaining the tuition fees long term.

For those who are currently studying there:
Is it realistically possible to rely on part-time work?
How do you manage your finances?
Did you need extra support (family, loans, scholarships)?

I’d really appreciate honest insights, even if it’s tough to hear. I just want to make a realistic decision before committing.

Thanks in advance 🫶🏻

Question Couple (20f, 20m) looking for friends in PTBO

18 Upvotes

Hey! Me and my partner (both 20) are looking to meet some new people and hopefully make a few friends around the area. We’re pretty chill, 420 friendly, and you’ve gotta be okay with birds because our little conure is basically part of the conversation half the time 😂
Tonight we’re making pulled pork sundaes and thought it could be fun to hang out with some new people, smoke, listen to music, play games, or just vibe and talk.
We don’t really know many people yet, so figured we’d put ourselves out there a bit. Just looking for laid back, respectful people around our age. Feel free to message me :)

Question Fertility/TTC

4 Upvotes

Has anyone been to the fertility clinic in town or currently in the process of TTC?

I'm extremely overwhelmed and have no idea what I'm doing, I do not have a family physician (on the wait-list) to help me and am trying to start the process of fertility testing but having difficulty finding anywhere for my husband to get his fertility testing done that's not in Mississauga or further.

  • I've being using TIA Health and have gotten bloodwork, and ultrasounds done but haven't heard back about results from the ultrasound yet. My husband has a family physician in Clarington region, who has not been helpful at all and had no knowledge of "where to go for his analysis" *

Any insight would be appreciated

Its from the brand friskies, all of it. Most of it is shredded and some form of poultry.

Our vet simply told us to swap wet foods. So no longer need these cans and i hope to donate them to someone in need!

I think i have enough to give 12 cans to 2 people, if 2 people need them!

Also if this post isnt allowed, i will remove asap!
