Default Residence Anyone?
Who will be living in residence? Any advice for those who will be?

It'll be the first time for me and I'll be happy...if not cautious. I still have not heard back about who my suite mate will be. (Humber Lakeshore has separate suites for a pair of students, with their own shared washroom and kitchenette but separate bedrooms.) I'm not even sure what gender they will be which makes me a little nervous.

I heard about room checks from some family friends and that's pretty much it...the "no appliances" does sorta suck, though I don't want my things going up in flames cause of some idiot away from home O_O...

Horror stories about roommates? =3 Do tell! Recommendations on cheap food? Anything of note? Constructive comments appreciated!

Jr Chicken at mcdonalds is dirt cheap.

Also, go to costco and get a bag of pancake/waffle mix for $10. It will last you about 2 years, 3 meals a day.

Having waffles every day for 730 days will make you go insane.

Good question... lemme go check my bag...

Nope. No expiry... it has a nice seal on the bag though.

Well, you could alternate between pancakes and waffles (i like waffles more). If you feel less-cheap that day, you could add fresh fruit or whipped cream..

Cereal + Milk is always a cheap meal alternative... good for just about any meal of the day.

Well, I guess that's to be expected with the 75% minimum...

So... can you confirm the steak dinners?
