Because books.

Not sure what you mean, Amy. But in my day we went to the bursars office with a check and stood in line.

Sorry, I meant, is it subsidized at all for Canadian citizens?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Or if you meant how do you come up with the money, a few things. Generally costs are much cheaper to begin wiht, especially if you are from w/in the province. (Actually, in Ontario you just had to be Canadian. At the time anyway, Quebec was the only that limited to students from in province.

There are various aid programs similar to the states. In Ontario there was OSAP, Ontario Student Aid Program. Better known as Ontario Stereo Acquisition Program. US students can get the same federal loans they would get to go to uni in the States.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

A sensible person in that situation would stand in the cronut line while using their current iPhone to order a new iPhone from apple.com.

[A sensible person who was in the area anyway and wanted both a fresh cronut and a new iPhone, that is.]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Lalala, biting my tongue because I think my coworker (who I am not actually that close to) just made the totally wrong call with a family issue....

It's 72 and nice here. I think I'm going to walk to therapy later! At least something is under my control.

Oh, I should walk home from work, since I'm wearing sneaks.

ION, ugh! The dentist's office just called, because my insurance wants to know when the crown was originally put in. I have no idea! Literally none. Was I even living in NYC yet? Unsure. If so, what dentist was I seeing? Again, no idea. My only hope is that I have some paperwork at home.

How did you pay for it? Can you go back through your bank/cc statements?

Signed, Just updates my spreadsheet of all dental expenditures since my dumbass HSA is hit or miss as to automatically including them.
