I recently found out that I got into UBC for business which means I will be moving from Edmonton to Vancouver in the next 2 months. Im stoked as hell, but does anyone have any advice on moving away for school or about vancouver and UBC in general? Thanks guys

Once you leave, and become more self sufficient you will not wanna go back! You'll grow up faster too. All my old mates still live at home and since i moved out 4 years ago they just seem so immature. Enjoy your new found freedom dude!

Bring money. Plan groceries, don't be stupid with money. You're an adult (ish) now, time to take care of yourself. The only problem with living on my own is dinner ideas, which is a universal problem. How old are you?

Also, if you're going into res, I don't suggest bringing all your belongings, just the important stuff, and your favourite stuff. Space gets limited. Also, do your dishes. Don't procrastinate that shit

Crazy. When I lived on res at SAIT, I had the meal plan option, didn't want it. Apartment style rooms were better.

Condoms are easier to change than diapers.
