I dream about writing essays. It’s what happens when you are in a program that is heavy on writing papers. I’ve been writing so many papers, that I’ve been having dreams in semi-lucid states, where I’m convinced that being in…
I have been to a writing centre for every assignment I've had since I began attending U of T. It's November (a.k.a. essay season) and I have six essays due between now and the end of the term. Winter Break,…
Hey U of T!
Recently, I had the phenomenal opportunity to interview Nathan Chan, one of the founders of a group based in Trinity College called PoC@Trin.
Meet Nathan Chan, a third-year physiology specialist and pharmacology major!
I am a lover of food. I tend to be one of those people who scoff when friends stop to take a photo of their food before they eat-- I am too busy lovingly staring at it to ruin the moment with cameras and clever hashtags. This week, I made an exception to my "no-phones-at-the-table" policy to capture my food choices and share them with you.
Given the chance, my food (and the lighting in the room) rose to the occasion. Work it, noodles, work it.

I can’t count the amount of times that I’ve walked by a poster advertising a new play on campus, and said “oh, I’m going to go to that!” If you’ve followed my blog posts for a while now, this won’t…
I'm a pretty big theatre fan so this weekend I caught not one, but two shows on campus. The first one, on Friday night, was the Trinity College Dramatic Society's production of A Midsummer Nights Dream and the second was Hart…
I'm a huge bibliophile so when Victoria College's annual booksale rolled around there was no way that I could resist it. Vic's booksale lasted from September 18-22 and took place in Old Vic, where it's Alumni Hall, second floor, and…
As I type, I am just about to wrap up my third Orientation Week at Trinity College – a lovely place that I call home. Many people still ask me: “Ondiek, why do you do this to yourself?” Well, it’s…
