Anybody going to the good ol' UBC this fall? Current summer courses?
nah, the commute would be too long.. just a few thousand miles
what are you studying at UBC?
Since it's closer to the school year. I'm bumping this :P
wewt!
I am =p
In Food and Nutritional sciences double major, 2 more years left.. 5 courses to go x_x
No way I could get into UBC, I'm an art student, not some kind of science/math genius :P I had some pretty unhappy marks in both those classes in High school.
I am, however, going to VIU. That's the other reason why not UBC, I'd have to move and I don't wanna! :-3
However, I am totally in full support of people going to school!
Terutt, what are you taking in school?
z00p: Awesome classes, I think everyone likes food, but you have to like it especially more (yay, grammar) to take classes like that! You're so close, too! :birdy:
I'm in Mathematics. It's more fun than it sounds. Seriously.
Lol.. I don't really like it too much, but whatev's!
What year are you in, turett? (and ew, math)
Year 2.5-ish. Long story.
Yeah, no worries, I've been in ubc for 6 years now myself -_-
Sweet, I've always wondered if there were other UBC students in the fandom.
Second year, faculty of arts over here.
we should like, find other ubc furs and have a ubc furmeet or something.. lol
I'm game for that idea. A UBC furmeet, sweet
I am so up for this. Days/times?
I live near 41st and Dunbar, but I'm going to VFS for school :P

Someone set it up, I'm too lazy to! xD

Laaaaazy. 3pm next monday at Boulevard coffee? Jesus, there has to be more than 3 furries on the entire goddamn campus.
There must be...
Maybe we should put up some ads on various bulletin boards. "You furry? WE WANT YOU!"
But, seriously, any other suggestions for meetups?
I dunno, probably on tuesdays or thursdays cause that's when I go to school.
what about the other guy?
Such a tough school to get into. DX
Which other guy are you referring to? I'm taking a month off starting Oct 3rd, so I'm game anytime :D
that would be LupinRager =p
It's my first year at UBC and I was wondering how the fur community is like there. Are there a few scattered here and there? Or are our numbers legion? I haven't checked yet if there is an actual furry club, but of there was, that would be sick!
Some people that go to UBC can be found in this thread (http://www.bcfurries.com/forum/index.php?topic=2121.0).
yeah, I think they scheduled a tiny meet last year, but I was stupid and forgot to check up on the topic so it was I missed it, or it never happened. The thread stopped updating in Sept last year, but so far the names are there.
but yeah, there's a fair dozen or so in UBC
as far as I know, there's no Furry club, I don't think we have enough to constitute a club, but I've only been in UBC for two years, and exposed to BC furries for a lot less, so I don't know what's the atmosphere or makeup here.
I'm not attending but I live near there, in the Dunbar/Kerrisdale area. So yeah there are a few around.
My last year in ubc comin' up... THEN FREEDOM!
I'm studying and living in UBC for my third year. :P
(did they merge the two threads together?)
yeah, 3rd year in UBC.
Hope to meet up one of these days
Well that merger left me profoundly confused and disoriented >.>
*cough* first year in Arts >.>
Get together sometime, jah?
Going in to first year Computer Science :3 I'll be living in Kits. while I go to school.
so how about a meetup in the near future? maybe after the term's started or something
That would be nice.
3rd Year Math :D
I'd be absolutely open to a meet.
Sounds good o:
I guess once the term starts, and it's likely most furs in UBC are here then we could set something up. Then again, if everyone going to UBC, in UBC is already here then we could discuss it now.
^^ That confused me so much for some reason @.@
Well, alright, I'd say we start throwing ideas out for us to meet BEFORE the term starts. Maybe lunch/dinner somewhere? I live far from UBC, so if anyone of you have a suggestion to a place closer to the majority of us, out with it :3

sorry, I tend to ramble and go around in circles.
I was saying if we should set up a meeting now, or wait until the term starts to insure that everyone is in town.
Ah. I see.
Well.... ummm.... I 'unno?
who says we can't have two?
: JazzyLament August 21, 2011, 12:18:01 -06:00
Ah. I see.
Well.... ummm.... I 'unno?

hmm, i guess nothing really. How's everyone's schedules?
*sighs* alright ya bunch of lazy furs : p
Is everyone free on the afternoon of the 31st of august? That's next Wednesday. And I trust you all like Japanese food, yes? Let me know who is in favor of this plan for a before term start meet and I'll make a proper topic and work out the details. The majority of you live downtown/have access to the skytrain, yeah?
Hell, I'm down for it, though I may have to go to work before you all disperse :/
*shrugs* I'm game. so around the 31st downtown I hear ya.
Well we are going to need more interest than just two people...
I'd go, I should be in town in time. :3
Bah, the merger got me for a moment. Well, I'm done with my third year summer school classes for a while. I'm going to be open for a meet, but only when the term starts, though I'll try pulling a few strings. Heck, my uPass' last day exists on Aug 31, so I guess it'll work to squeeze every last opportunity out of it. In addition, I spend too much time in my dorm room for the first two years - I'm so slow to socializing with a crowd. xD
TL;DR : Yes, in advance, for during-the-term meet.
P.S. I guess it's time to think of a "UBC Meet Event" topic or somewhat sooner or later to be posted in the Lower Mainland Events section of the forum. :P
So, is this happening or what? Because I really do want to meet all of you people.
Bumping this up for the people who are moving in during the weekend and starting class this upcoming Wednesday. ^-^
Not to mention that IMAGINE UBC is a blast for first years. What better way to start off your university years with a raving party in the War Memorial Gym?
Edit: Imagine Day is a Tuesday.
okay, i think I'll make a date in the events board. Well, August 31st was nice, but people were still moving in. How's the 10th or 17th of September? They're both Saturdays, and a week or so after school starts, a bit of time to get adjusted.
How's this? I'll set a time slot if people are interested in those days, but hopefully something on campus a little after noon.
How's that?
I'll just say here then that I won't be able to make it if it's on the 10th o:
I'll just say this in advance. I might be unavailable on some weekends in the future, but don't worry, for now I'm free for the first two Saturdays of September.
I can pull some strings to make it but for the love of all that is good, please pick a place downtown that is close to the Vancouver waterfront >.<
It's already and hour and 15 minutes to commute to UBC for me >.<
okay then...I was hoping to make it on campus, but I can see that it's not fair to you...
hmmm....aside from actual Waterfront station I can't really think of anything
Any suggestions? At this point, it may have to be the 17th.
Then again, does anyone have a general idea of how many furs are here now?
I'm drawing a blank. Though I do know several places where UBC students like to hang out, such as Calhoun's, which is outside of UBC. Nevertheless it's still quite a distance from downtown, and I have no idea regarding the places where we could meet up there...other than, uh...UBC Robson Square?
Robson square sounds great, under the shade near the dried up ice rink (at least I think it's an ice rink)
it might have to be the 17th though.
I don't think a lot of people are keen on it being this Saturday afternoon.
I'm thinking around 12 or 1 pm?
Well are we planning on eating together? If not then 1 would be better...robson is 45 minutes away for me.
So....have we made an event day yet?
Also! I have an idea. Why don't we make it at the evening on Friday! Then we can all have dinner together and nobody will have to travel far since most of us are there, or can simply wait on campus ^.^
that'll work! I guess I'll post something on the events page?
Would you kindly?~<3 ^.^

I might as well holler! I'm a 4th year Biochem at UBC, but I'm stupid busy for the next month with the store I'm working at closing down and the free agent thing happening all next week at school, so I just can't hit up the Saturday get-together.
If anyone wants to chill during class break or something though just shout :3
My lunch break times this term are either between 1100/1200 hours and 1300/1400 hours. ;)
Hm, since you are in Biochem, I'd assume you'd be around the Woodward Building area, right?
Holy that was quick, haha. That works well for me actually, in a couple days when things die down I'll DM you bud, or vice versa :3
Oh I spend most of my time nowadays around Wesbrook and the Chem building. I'm all done my Biochems (thank god), just got a couple chems, some psychs and a couple biols to wrap up the undergrad next year. So close, yet man so far~
Superb. I'll usually be hanging around three places in UBC, all three of 'em in close proximity to Main Mall: Ike's, Buchanan Complex, or the Tim Horton's near Sauders.
Like you said, one more year to wrap up the undergraduate years.
Damn you Northern UBC'ers!
I haven't been to the SUB in a lonnnngggg time just cause it's too much walking for my lazy legs >:|

:o
Northern UBCers? where do you live? at the farm? Thunderbird?
I'm everywheeeeeeere!!! XD
No seriously I have a class in Buchanan followed by a class in ICCS followed by a class in hennings on monday. it's ridiculous...
And sometimes i like visiting nitobe garden during my breaks! Yay! MORE WALKING! :3
Better make the most of your time at Nitobe before the winter spell kicks in. ;)
Mew...yeah...I dun like cold...
But! If it snows it's gonna be pretty!!!!!!! Yaaaaaaaay ^.^
Almost all of my classes would be at Macmillan, and mebbe some at the FNH building.
I always hate Autumn at ubc.. that's when those dangly inchworms come out.......
THEY'RE EVERYWHERE!
Aw...I can't get enough of the golden leaves on Main Street, I'm glad that autumn is coming over.
You're talking about those little green worms dangling by invisible threads?

YUS. THOSE. ARGH.
Heads up, furs.
I will not be able to partake in any UBC meets for these two weeks due to midterms.
Who's in for making a UBC Furs "Rollcall" of sorts?
Given that we're close to exam periods and all that, perhaps it may help for furs who are studying in similar courses in similar majors and faculties and all that to form a study group of sorts.
Or if you guys want to, like say, hang out at the SUB or the IBLC, or somewhat.
