Although, we had an awesome team, so, it was easy to joke about Jersey Shore \u00a0and be productive at the same time.\r\n\r\n<figure id=\"attachment_23017\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-23017\" style=\"width: 679px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2015\/01\/Screen-Shot-2015-01-26-at-1.41.12-PM.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-23017\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2015\/01\/Screen-Shot-2015-01-26-at-1.41.12-PM.png\" alt=\"A screenshot of a our Facebook group name. &quot;The popular commuter kids.&quot; Very funny.\" width=\"679\" height=\"58\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2015\/01\/Screen-Shot-2015-01-26-at-1.41.12-PM.png 679w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2015\/01\/Screen-Shot-2015-01-26-at-1.41.12-PM-300x25.png 300w, https:\/\/blogs.studentlife.utoronto.ca\/lifeatuoft\/files\/2015\/01\/Screen-Shot-2015-01-26-at-1.41.12-PM-500x42.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 679px) 100vw, 679px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-23017\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">I promise I didn't name the group.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n\r\nI've literally had more meetings scheduled than class hours last week! I take that as a good sign that I'm properly easing my way into my 20s.\r\n\r\nBut it was all worth it because Commuter Appreciation Week starts this week! We have lots of events planned, and more importantly, each event will have food and refreshments. A commuter's second occupation is pretty much being a professional free food scavenger.
