You were busy this year, UW.

The past 12 months have been a steady stream of commentary from you all. Sometimes you’re hilarious, sometimes you’re serious, and sometimes you’re trollin’. Most times, we love you. Without you, the submitters and the daily visitors, we wouldn’t be doing this. Your support during 2010 was amazing, and we can only hope it continues to grow as we approach 2011. In the New Year, you can expect some awesome new additions and changes to the site that we think you’re going to love.

Here are the things you talked about the most this year.

• Who could forget the epic, very racist “so, what” meme?
• Or when Mel's Diner and other UW Plaza businesses burned to the ground?
• Our campus was terrorized by geese (as usual), and by a man in a chicken suit.
• The anonymous Chevron started appearing around campus.
• We used to have a club called CASA?
• Our football team took drugs.
• The president of our school became the Governor General of our country.
• Mother Nature gave us a smack-down.
• Macleans proposed the idea that universities were "too Asian."
• A few people may have had something to say about "Bathtub Girl."
• There are criminals at our school, stealing laptops and holding people up at gunpoint.
• mathNEWS was threatened with a lawsuit.
• Construction is still annoying, but at least we'll get a Starbucks out of it.
• Christie Blatchford came to campus, shit went down.
• As always, some of you have offensive odours.

And here are the Mod's 10 favourite OMGs of the year! (in chronological order)

OMG #2809:
Someone went into one of the washroom stalls I had just come out of and asked if I had used that stall. Immediately I said no thinking that I had stunk up the stall, but apparently I had just left my phone in it and they wanted to give it back. I had to get my phone back from lost and found.

OMG:
11 days for a break, where half of it is spent worrying about my marks. Worst break evar.

OMG:
I haven't been outside in 4 days. Thanks World of Warcraft.

OMG:
Word of advice. Dating someone a second time after it didn't work out once.
bad idea.

OMG:
I'm so happy to be on break - being lazy and doing nothing but hanging out and catching up with friends. However, I have my moments, wandering around the house thinking i'm gonna go insane if I don't do something productive with my life :| oh university, what have you done to me? :(

OMG:
I haven't touched a penis in 15 days!

OMG:
I cannot believe this is a real thing

Why is Star Wars on television during the Christmas holiday and not classic seasonal videos such as A Christmas Story, Griswald's Family Christmas, Rudolph, or anything remotely interesting?

I just realized we go back to UW in five days. =/

OMG:
Whenever I think of not using a condom, I just watch '16 and Pregnant' and logic comes back to me.

I have a serious lack of trust in the education people get in schools other than UW. But I've also met a bunch of people here that are too stupid for words.

OMG:
It is my birthday and I am watching Fresh Prince alone after a nice family dinner and I couldn't be happier.

OMG:
What do a Christmas tree and the Pope have in common? Their balls are just for decoration!

OMG:
Bieber was on UW campus on the 26th, checking it out apparently.

OMG:
As much as it bums me out that the site hasn't been updated a lot recently, I'm glad the MODS are having a nice break! Hope your holidays are going great!

MOD'S NOTE: Thanks, we are! There hasn't a lot of submission either tho :(.

OMG:
I haven't seen my girlfriend in nearly a year and I'm starting to get tempted :(

OMG:
There are non-extremist Muslims! :O

OMG:
I read the posts, and I feel closer to people at the school. I read the comments, and I want to transfer.

OMG:
I'm afraid that guys won't want to date me when they find out I'm a virgin and that I don't plan on losing it before at least a year of dating.

OMG:
Apparently Justin Beiber was seen at Fairview Mall in Cambridge! Wow, Cambridge is the last place I would imagine Justin Beiber to be at.

On the 12 days of Christmas, UW gave to me.:
12 10-page essays
11 tuition emails
10 lab projects
9 heavy textbooks
8 months of stress
7 ace outages
6 minutes before my deadline
5 9am exams!!
4 research papers
3 study days
2 failed classes
and a debt that will take years to pay off!

OMG:
Some people wonder why engineers have such big egos, its because we are awesome.

OMG:
3pm on Christmas eve and I'm just starting to clear my desk for the term. People complaining about 22nd exams really don't have it that bad.

OMG:
Your job: call Turnkey on Christmas and wish them a happy holidays. I know I'd hate working on Christmas, and while a bunch of nice phone calls wouldn't make up for it, it might make things a bit easier.

OMG:
I was back in my hometown the other day and I was doing something embarrassing and I was thinking 'oh no, I hope no one posts this on-' Then I realized there is no OMGUW like system in my hometown. Same thing happened when I had a MC with a guy, and then I realized it was truely a MC cause neither of us can write about it. OMGUW has officially become a legitimate part of my life. :|

OMG:
Brilliant

OMG:
Sometimes sucks to be an international student cause you don't get to go home. :(.

OMG:
I just realized the pew pew gun in OMGUW logo, lets not make the artsies happy.

OMG:
I'm alone on christmas, have no friends or family besides my parents back home, and have no friends in Waterloo. No matter what I try its been the same shit for 8 months and isnt getting better.

OMG:
I received a Christmas card from WATPD Engineering...Oh UW how you surprise me!

OMG:
UW Film Club Holiday Special :) Happy holidays from us to you :)

OMG:
Bye Dana Porter, I'll miss you!

OMG:
I'm 6748 miles away from Waterloo and I'm OMGUWing from here !
I miss you lovely people of UW.

OMG:
Just found out I got a 24 on my calc exam, and 46 on my chem exam... Goodbye Sciences! Hello Arts :D

OMG:
My neighbors appear to be having a really loud Backstreet Boys karaoke sing along. I am not annoyed that it is keeping me from sleeping, just sad that I don't know them and wasn't invited.

Guys who just walked through DC in the body suits: you just made my day

OMG:
#6151 said homophobia, like homosexuality, is not a choice. DUMBEST. LOGIC. EVER. Be honest, you go to Laurier, right?

OMG:
Rec & Leisure 100 course had a written answer question about ways to get fit. Win.

OMG:
This is for the people writing on the 22nd!

OMG:
Dear lunar eclipse that I didn't see: I'm sad you didn't come out from behind the clouds. However, I did enjoy the sense of community and fun or whatever with other groups of people out wandering the snow at 3am looking for the moon. It's been a while.

OMG:
The amazingly fast updates from the Mods is the only thing making my lonely, studycentric life bearable until I finish on the 22nd. I love you.

MOD'S NOTE: Love you too! :)

OMG:
I really hate when I'm forcing myself to study for my last exam, and I get texts saying "Why aren't you coming tobogganing with us?".
Well, I'm not bloodywell at home cause I have an exam tomorrow.

OMG:
Near the end of the CS 350 exam, one of the proctors put on a fake moustache.

OMG:
Everytime i see the girls engineering jackets I get a little jealous. Then i remember i'm in environment and own a pair of those super cool frosh pants and i'm okay with not owning one of those jackets.

OMG:
I haven't had sex in two weeks, and tomorrow will be my last exam. All night monkey sex session with the GF afterwards!

OMG:
I might have to repeat first semester. Atleast that means frosh round two.

OMG:
Anyone need some paper for a holiday fire(place)? I'm throwing out a 3 terms worth of paper right now!

OMG:
Interracial couples are cute and I saw a ton on campus this term :)

OMG:
For those who also have exams till the damn 22nd: don`t give up, we can do it!

OMG:
If people don't always choose to be gay or non gay I believe the same has to be said about homophobia. Some people can't help being homophobic, it is awful to have to deal with them but just remember it might not be their fault anymore than being gay is yours.

OMG:
I love my don. He's a strict but rule biding but he's just does his job. Those of you assholes on our floor who cant seem to seem to show him any respect should not expect the same from him. You're just gonna make the next 4 months living here a terrible experience and you have no one to blame but yourselves.

OMG:
What could be better than Christmas and Zombies :D

Happy Holidays!

OMG:
Everytime I try to study, I check this site to see if there are new omgs. I wish exams didn't run so late, everyone else is chillin and I'm pretending to study :(

OMG:
I can't remember how much I paid for my british lit anthology but I remember it was a lot. Then I realized that every single text we read was out of copyright and available online for free. Why is waterloo constantly fucking us?

OMG:
My very first term of university's coming to an end. Hard to believe. Hey fellow first years, we can actually do it! :)

OMG:
Plain and simple. Homophobia is disgusting and ignorant. Those who hate simply because the person is homosexual are missing out on getting to know a lot of amazing and funny people.

OMG:
A few nights ago I was supposed to go out with this guy, and I was really excited about it. I ended up waiting for him for an hour and a half, convinced that he would eventually show up. He never came and is now avoiding me.

OMG:
Many of my Korean friends are back in Korea serving in the military...a bad time to be drafted eh?

OMG:
Whenever I see university/college hippies, this song starts playing in my head.

OMG:
For all those who needs a quick, immature study break!

OMG:
Mothers aren't meant to die. They're suppose to live forever. I love you mom.

OMG:
FaceTime is saving me a lot of money. Thank you Apple!

OMG:
Seriously waterloo exam schedulers, the last exam day should be about the 17th, not the 22nd.

OMG:
To the person who wrote "Happy Holidays" with the little Christmas tree in the snow outside of SCH ... you made my day :)

OMG:
Why do Arts kids find it necessary to spam my UW-ACE inbox about things that were covered in class and also in the course outline? Are you that incompetent?
And we all know you were not sick that day and you wanted to skip class so stop asking me for my notes. I skipped class too.

OMG:
I've been addicted to this site since day 1; can't believe it's almost been 2 years!

OMG:
PDA should be illegal on campus. Or at least in the library, it's very very disgusting.

OMG:
To all the swingers!

OMG:
Bought a $1500 ticket to go back home and surprise my girlfriend, And now the London airport's stopped working because of 5cm of snow. :-( I'm so sad that I can't study at all, I think I'm going to fail CS135 and I don't even care anymore.

OMG:
I feel old. Why? Because I have 3 Watcards that are different.

OMG:
I have learned my lesson: never sit beside a group of brown person or super fobbie asians in a library

OMG:
I still don't have any Asian friends whatsoever.

OMG:
This is probably both racist and sexist, but I was wondering if anyone else feels the way I do.
I find it very hard to comprehend when I see a somkin' hot girl working at a place like subway. Like the short blonde that works at the subway or those white chicks with their nose piercings at Pita Factory.

OMG:
It's nice that people's mommy and daddy buy them designer bags that are $500. But why do they try so hard to show that off? Because really, to me, they only end up sounding materialistic.

OMG:
If a hear another person talk negatively about a person with disabilities, I will punch them square in the face, why would anyone say anything to someone who is at a disadvantage. It just doesn't make sense. If your self esteem is that low that picking on someone mentally or physically challenged boosts your confidence, your living a sad sad life. Thats my rant for today

OMG:
To the two assholes that watched me slip on ice, fall, and stopped to stare:
You two are moronic douchebags. It's not hard, nor is it a bad thing to ask "Hey, are you ok?" after someone slips on ice. It's also a GOOD thing to tell someone they dropped something. Especially if the person that slipped has their hands full with bags and luggage. People like you two make me lose faith in humanity.
Assholes.

OMG:
Thank you OMGUW for being the best distraction during exams

OMG:
I get that we need to respect people, but it bothers me when people personally identify with a psychosomatic condition that doesn't actually exist, and then tell you to screw off when you give them the resources that prove it doesn't.

OMG:
Speaking of those tunnels, is it true there used to be an underground tunnel from V1 to SLC but someone got raped there so they closed it? I heard this in first year so I'm not sure I believe it.

OMG:
I opened my new quran to a random page and read a random line. All that paragraph was about was slaughtering people who looked at you funny... I really hope the rest of the book isn't like that.

OMG:
For all those still struggling with finals

OMG:
It's peculiar when I don't get any signal on my Blackberry since I can see RIM from my damn window.

OMG:
I think I'm gonna fail CS 135, I just looked at the fall 08 one and I could only do the stepper and drawing a tree problems. It doesn't help that there's hardly anyway to study for CS other than to study your notes and that will never get you very far.

OMG:
Say you discover an island somewhere out in one of the oceans. This island is in international waters and it has no previous claims to it.

Would you be able to claim the island in your own name (ie. one day being able to make it your own nation) or would the claim automatically fall to the country to which you have a citizenship to?

OMGUW Island, how awesome would that be?

MOD'S NOTE: Can we be king and queen of OMGUW Island?

OMG:
There's finally hot water in res.

OMG:
Please don't expand to other universities. They can make their own sites.

OMG:
When I got home from my last exam of the term today, my neighbours' blinds were open and I could see their decorated Christmas tree. It made my day, considering it's a house of five guys that are all on varsity sports teams. There's a little spirit in all of us, apparently!

OMG:
My prof. used "turnitin" for an essay we did, and it said that my essay (along with a bunch of other students) was plagarized. All because turnitin thought that my quotations, which were properly cited in quotation marks with the proper references, was plagarizing the articles I got them from. Now I am in trouble and may recieve a zero on the essay! What an awful and flawed program. Stop being lazy profs and mark things the normal way!

OMG:
Walking across campus I seen two people wearing shorts.

OMG:
Worried about mediocre/average grades? Fret not, cause apparently "Average is the new exceptional"

OMG:
There is an wireless network in my neighbourhood named China. I know this is a terrible place and all, but I didn't expect people to feel that homesick or heritage-proud.

OMG:
So for a long time I used to think UW was a shitty place to meet new friends and cute girls. Then one night I tried MDMA for the first time and unleashed a tidal wave of compliments on my friends and random girls I met. I finally realized that most girls think I'm cute and I should just talk to them even if I don't have much to say. Being friendly is goddamn attractive, no matter the gender. At the end of the day, antisocial behaviour at UW is effectively an institutionalized policy. But that doesn't mean that one friendly person can't overcome the barriers put up by ten others. You can't count on an institution to socialize for you. It sounds incredibly obvious, but ultimately YOU are the solution to having an awesome social life ;)

OMG:
Why does UW have those tunnels connecting almost every building? I think it's a cool idea, I'm just curious about the thinking behind it. Is it to keep students out of the cold? Make it easier to move stuff between buildings?

OMG:
Fuck stress. I've spent more on pregnancy tests due to missed periods in the last four months than I have on entertainment.

OMG:
I was wondering, say hypothetically a prof is walking towards a final with the exams at hand, and a couple of bandits ran up and stole the exam....would the final be postponed because the exam is fluttering away out and about?

OMG:
MC has the best bathroom graffiti. Men's bathroom beside Mathsoc has a debate over teaching Scheme.

OMG:
Jacking-off is not an exercise. That is all.

OMG:
Hey muslim girl in the library who drinks, smokes, fucks, eats bacon and feels the need to brag/chat about it with her friend, STFU.

OMG:
The truth about finding a significant other.

OMG:
They are repealing DADT in America!

OMG:
I just had the biggest brain fart of all time, and I feel I need to share this with someone so they can laugh with me at my stupidity.
It is now 5:50am. I having a huge and difficult exam coming up next week, an exam I feel in no way prepared to write, so I have been studying hardcore for the past few days.
Tonight I was having a good study session so I lost track of time, and before you know it it's 5:00 am. So after a solid 15 hours of sitting at my desk, I decided to take a quick shower and then hit the sack.
After showering I got back to my room. Deciding to go to bed, I figured it would be a good idea to set my alarm clock for a solid 8 hour sleep, in case I sleep longer and destroy precious study time.Then thanks to a momentary lapse in cognitive brain function, when I reached my bedside table to set my alarm clock, I instead decided to put on deodorant and even a little cologne, then got in my bed. I laid there for about 3 minutes, before the smell of the cologne reached me and before I realized how stupid that was.

What the fuck was I doing? And no I don't sweat when I sleep.

OMG:
The selection of guys in Waterloo makes me lower my standard significantly. Can't wait to be back in Toronto after exams. So many better gay guys.

OMG:
To the people in the study room opposite of us: we can see you through the windows, moving your hands vigorously within the constraints of your girlfriend's jeans. Way to take PDA to a whole 'nother level.

OMG:
I really think we need a strong animal rights group in this world, but it's hard to support PETA - it seems to get so republican at times.

OMG:
Who in Arts has an average of above 80????? It's supposed to be easy but I can't seem to bring it above 70... I need a really high average to get into grad school but there's always this one course that fucks me over almost every semester!

OMG:
I lost my keys with a Velocity lanyard and a faded-black snap hook. Oh it also has a beer opener (engineering tool :)) please let me know if anyone finds it.

OMG:
The only way I'm able to study for BIOL 350 is by listening to the Pocahontas soundtrack as background music. Totally applicable, whatever.

OMG:
Why must people sing Indian songs in the library?

OMG:
I always find it funny how people all over campus wear Campus Crew clothing that have different Universities like UCLA and Harvard on them.

OMG:
The PHYS 111L exam is designed to have an average of 30%. I don't see the point in even trying.

OMG:
MODSS!!!!!1

MOD'S NOTE: Haha, this is amazing. Well done.

OMG:
I hate how ACE signs me out all the time.

OMG:
Dear people I'm proctoring, you look either sick or about to cry over this 100 level exam. I'm sorry.

OMG:
To every first year engineer celebrating their finals being over, be quiet, the rest of the world still has exams.

OMG:
Turns out the guy assaulting people near UW was from Kitchener. Not surprising.

OMG:
To the girl and guy in the DC basement giving old fashioned HJs to each other under the desk: Get a private study room

OMG:
For the love of god, bring a goddamn kleenex to your exam, because I'm sure everyone would rather hear you blow your nose once or twice than sit there and sniff every 5 seconds for 2.5 hours.

OMG:
For all those who submit an OMG asking why we never post your OMGs, please send us an email at omgsubmit@gmail.com instead! We cannot tell you why if there is no way to reply to you! Thanks guys!

- MODS

OMG:
Everyone's almost done exams, and I haven't done my first one yet. FML

OMG:
For those who are graduating, it puzzles me how you have money to go travelling across Europe for a month while I am left with only $1k in my bank account after next term. And this is using my own money from coop to pay for school and housing.

OMG:
To the idiot that decided to pull the fire alarm at South and East REV at 4:00 am today, I HATE YOU. Thank you for not only ruining my sleep but everyone else's who have an exam in 5 hours.

OMG:
I just let out a silent but very deadly, eggy, raunchy, earthy fart, and now this poor random girl behind me is gagging over and over. Sorry, random girl, I have no idea what I ate that's doing this to me, but it's not showing any signs of letting up soon.

OMG:
For all those who have CS on Tuesday.

OMG:
MLK Jr. 1963
"I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."

A few bad seeds doesn't give anyone the right to characterize a particular race as bad. Can't we all just get along?

OMG:
I swear even the toilet paper in E5 is better than all the other washrooms on campus

OMG:
Happy Holidays, MODS! Thanks for being so awesome! Xoxo

MOD'S NOTE: Thanks! :)

OMG:
It sucks when you realize that all of your "friends" are actually two-faced assholes.

OMG:
I have yellow fever and I'm not ashamed to admit it.

OMG:
Cab fare to K-W Airport is so expensive.

OMG:
Another OMG website. Nostalgic multi-player games!

OMG:
I jerk off as a reward for doing well in an exam...don't judge, I don't have someone to sex me up.

OMG:
Word of advice: Don't drink two extra large coffees before an exam. I had to pee in the middle and the prof had to accompany me INTO the washroom. Reeeeal awkward.

OMG:
For all the engineers out there!

OMG:
"We swear we're not over-compensating".

OMG:
UW needs to have a respect and responsibility portion of the AIF for all incoming students. Weed out the 2% of students who ruin shit for everyone before they can do any damage.

OMG:
PHYS121 Final was so hard i felt like crying in the middle of the exam.

OMG:
I really wish arts students didn't have to complete the BA Breadth requirements. I came to university for social sciences, and electives are bringing my marks down!

OMG:
When a guy in a black ski mask walks onto the bus, or any public place for that matter, you get scared.

OMG:
I was looking through the slides of some student presentations given in class, only to find that they plagiarized word for word from Wikipedia... Academic integrity much?

OMG:
I just woke up to a wonderful dream where I was having a conversation with my grandma about everything, the weather, food, jokingly saying I eat too much and just about how I'm doing in life. Halfway into my dream I realize my grandma died about a year ago. And then she slowly began to fade out of my dream. I woke up crying. I miss you so much grandma, and this is for everyone who misses a loved one.

OMG:
So I watched Sasha Grey for the first time and wow I don't know what the hype is all about, she aint attractive much.

OMG:
I am studying for BIOL302; this is very relevant.

OMG:
I just finished my first term of university and it was great! I just want to thank everyone who made it amazing! I've found a great group of friends in my program and I love everyone in my residence. I'm so excited for next term!
I hope every first year feels this way and isn't too stressed out about exams right now! So Happy Holidays everyone! Good luck on exams!

OMG:
I'm glad final exams are only twice a year. So stressful!

OMG:
As if studying isn't stressful enough, I have to FIGHT for an exam seat because you're too lazy to assign seats? Wtf Waterloo, get your shit together.

OMG:
What with everything about laptops being stolen I was even scared to use my laptop this morning in the SLC. "Atlest we're not York" ... if this keeps up we'll be right down to their level.

OMG:
The closer it is getting to my last exam, the more I am dreading going home.

OMG:
I was waiting to use the Women's washroom downstairs at DC. A guy totally got out, stared at me and walked away. Never have I cleaned a toilet seat so well before.

OMG:
Someone told me that characters in manga spoke "Manganese". He didn't seem too jokingly about it either.

OMG:
I went to the guys washroom in SLC and the was a black dude standing infront of the mirror adjusting his crotch, he even took off his pants.

OMG:
UW should start using sand instead of salt. Salt is bad for the environment and it's wrecking my shoes

OMG:
I have the flu and studying is proving to be impossible when my head is in the toilet!

OMG:
Reason OMGUW bothers me is everyones too serious. Loosen up. A troll's a troll.

OMG:
So I was studying at DC last night around 3-4am and a white dude 2 tables down got up to go somewhere, leaving his belongings behind. A few minutes later, I noticed a dude wearing a dark hoody pace back and forth the aisle and he tried to ninja snatch the laptop on the white dude's table. An asian passerby saw what was going on and football tackled the thief to the ground and the UW police was notified. He was brown and upon inspecting the thief's bag, they found 4 more laptops most likely stolen. Props to the asian dude who actually DID something and not just watch.

OMG:
The new waterloo website looks HIDEOUS. Forget about style, people want aesthetics.

OMG:
12 pairs of boxers, down to the last pair today and no time for laundry.

OMG:
I was having sex with this guy I have been seeing for a while. I was mildly drunk and accidently called him another name (of a friend I had just walked home with... no attraction). He didn't say anything about it, and acted like normal, but I feel majorly awkward. I have never done something like that before. Now I can't stop thinking about that moment.

OMG:
Why are almost all interracial couples on campus between a white male and asian female? We all need to start mixing more

OMG:
If you are worried about your laptop getting stolen, check out Prey. It's a free program that you activate if your laptop gets stolen - it tracks the laptop's location and can even take webcam pictures of the thief!

OMG:
I am nearing the point of starvation, dehydration and sleep deprivation, but it will all be worth it when I pwn the exam? Thank you UW. This will be a Christmas break well deserved.

OMG:
UW Libraries should have a "Pants Free Zone" so that I can get out of these damn things.

OMG:
To the guy in the SLC tonight at 9 pm wearing the sheet while you were on your laptop. I don't know who you're trying to fool, but I could see you. Get a better disguise.

OMG:
Why is our university too cheap to put some salt or sand on the sidewalks? I'm literally slipping and sliding my way to my exams.

OMG:
To the girl studying for optometry tonight at Williams - I thought you were kinda cute until you used a remote car starter to warm - I mean idle your car for 10 minutes before leaving. You lost all hotness credibility right there. Sorry, I'm in the Faculty of Environment...What can I say?? That's so unnecessary.

OMG:
Girls, get it through your head, all a guy wants is get into your pants. This formula works every single time: pretend to care = get laid. It so funny how girls go through this every single time and yet when they meet the next guy still think he's the "sweetest" guy in the world.

OMG:
I saw a study carrel with 24 neatly stacked Tim Hortons cups. Must be exam season.

OMG:
I'm back home for Christmas, many provinces away, working on a paper....and I continue to check OMGUW for updates. I can procrastinate from miles away well still enjoy the benefits of UW!

OMG:
I'm going to withdrawal from engineering, but I really don't know what to do now :(

OMG:
I love you, MODS for taking time out of your exam schedules to help me procrastinate in studying for mine! <3

MOD'S NOTE: :)!

OMG:
Hey Waterloo, spring for more heating in the PAC during exams. It's hard to write an essay when your fingers are numb.

OMG:
Hey First Years!

I hope your exams are going well. Don't get too stressed out, and just do the best you can. You can't expect any more from yourself than that!

Inevitably, there is always a group of students who are having trouble. For you guys, all I have to say is: relax! School isn't easy. Keep the above in mind, and the fact that you're not always going to get everything the first time around, so take it as a learning experience.

If things do go bad, rarely will you not have a second chance. Perhaps you had bad time management skills, or maybe you don't like your program deep down. Changing majors or faculties is quite common. Many, many students mess up their first term but go on to recover and become effective students. Talk to your advisor, figure out what happened! Try study skills/career counselling! It's never the end of the world!

Good luck with the rest of your exams!
-TT

OMG:
Dear students: I urge you to not hesitate to claim a study carrel that's obviously been left for an extended period of time. Just pile all their shit on the top shelf.

OMG:
I'm on the 3rd floor and I just spotted a UW police on patrol. Love you guys for keeping a look-out for thieves!

OMG:
This website is garbage compared to Likealittle

OMG:
I'm glad we are not York at the moment. Apparently a fire took out there heating on there Keele campus and thus no school until its fixed.

OMG:
There's a mouse in wedge lab!

OMG:
I'm really loving some of the people I've met here! Then there are the idiots... But overall, my first term really made this school worth the while for me!

OMG:
If you get your laptop stolen, you deserve it. People are far too trusting on campus. Some girl the other day asked me to watch her computer while she made a phone call. I could have myself a new MacBook pro now if I was an asshole. Seriously though, how dumb can people be. Shits expensive, buy a ten dollar lock and you won't lose your thousand dollar computer.

OMG:
As someone who has gone through every kind of stress I can imagine over the past term, I realize that shit happens. I also know that when it happens, it affects your grades. I managed to pull off my normal marks, just 1 or 2 percent lower than usual, but I did have to put a lot of work into it. Why are other people in similar situations always complaining that these things will lower their marks enough to destroy their education?

OMG:
I applied for a job where 624 other people have applied to. Current job status - Canceled!
You just wasted the time of 625 people for nothing!

OMG:
PHYS 121 was being taught by two profs this term. One good prof, and one bad prof. And for distance ed...they filmed the bad prof? What the hell, UW?

OMG:
Gangster Tamils in the SLC silent study, I've plotted against your life on so many occasions I feel like we should be on a first name basis.
Love, everyone who's ever tried to study up there.

OMG:
New UW website is slowly being phased in! They have the new wordmark at the top of the screen in place of the crest. The full new look should be here by the new year, and the rest of the University pages should slowly adapt it as 2011 progresses. :)

OMG:
If it's 4:30am and you are in DC library giggling away, go home.

OMG:
Why all the "What race was the guy" who attempts to steal your laptops.
Protect your shit.
I'm brown, I wear a parka and carry a big ass bag, I don't steal. If someone is trying to steal your laptop falcon punch them.

OMG:
As a Canadian grown Chinese, I used to befriend people of all race and background. I treated my peers as they would treat me -- just another person. With each semester spent in UWaterloo, the racial segregation and resentment became increasingly apparent. Everyday, this aura of loathing injects fear into me. Am I being judged? Am I being categorized? Am I another "fuckin' Asian"?

OMG:
Thanks for ruining my chance at professional school, my GPA, and Christmas, BIOL 303!

OMG:
I feel sad that I'm leaving my co-op job to go back to school, even though it's the last time.

OMG:
This morning I found public hair on a desk in TC. Do you people have sex in those study rooms? Frig, some of us actually study you know!

OMG:
While I was in line today at Subway in the SLC, I actually procrastinated on making a decision on what sandwich to buy. When it was my turn to order, I just blurted a "pizza-sub please". I think I need to deal with this procrastination thing.

OMG:
Erections are the worst during finals

OMG:
I love it when ACE conversations do my studying for me!

OMG:
To girls in UW leather jackets: One word, SEXAAAY!

OMG:
I was thinking about teaming up with a friend and have him watch my laptop as I leave it own in the open "to go to the washroom". So that when a laptop thief comes, we can publicly humiliate him and then take his picture for good measure. Maybe they will learn their lesson.

OMG:
Dear People Complaining about how "Leggings aren't Pants":
If they aren't then why did clothing companies create Jeggings (aka Jean Leggings). Care to clarify for me?
Sincerely,
A Girl with a Nice Ass Who Wears Leggings as Pants.

OMG:
I feel sorry for the person delivering food to those idiots beside my room. They got high, and the poor delivery guy is lost somewhere at REV, and all they could say is "Yea... V1... it's right beside it... ask around". I worked in food delivery, the person is probably spitting in their food right now.

OMG:
To all the kids in REV West A and B with Christmas lights up, seeing your windows made my walk home better last night.

OMG:
I had to go the washroom so I took my laptop with me into the washroom. A few guys stared at me as I walked into my stall... Damn you laptop thieves, damn you.

OMG:
With all the laptop stealings on campus lately, you think students would take extra care to watch their stuff, but all I'm seeing here is students complaning about their belongings being stolen! Watch your stuff more carefully!

OMG:
They still haven't taken care of the graffiti all over campus. I know its cold but step it up UW.

OMG:
Since all courses, with the obvious exception of language courses (i.e. French) are in English, you would think that people would understand what silent means.
FYI: Silent: adjective
1. making no sound; quiet; still: a silent motor.
2. refraining from speech.

Silent study does not mean to get a group of people together and have a pow-wow. Please be respectful of others! Much appreciated!

It's hilarious listening to people swear when someone's phone goes off in DP. Twice.

OMG:
This weather is perfect for a snowball fight. Too bad everyone is busy studying

OMG:
Sitting in the study room in DC and every time the washroom door opens there's at least one guy checking himself out in the mirror.

OMG:
I was studying in DC last night, get up to put away a book (like 10 feet away) and see some guy try and take my laptop. I ask him wtf hes doing and hes like "sorry, I thought it was mine". I notify security and they are like "we can't do anything about it as he hadn't taken anything but we will keep an eye on him"

OMG:
Whilst "studying" on the quiet seventh floor of DP, I had the biggest sneeze. Your "bless you" from a couple cubicles down was so cute and made my day!

OMG:
They closed E5 because lazy people not throwing their garbage out. Fuck you guys.

OMG:
The day before my AM331 exam the library's online copy of the textbook suddenly doesn't allow me to access more than half the pages!

OMG:
For once, I feel the need to do more than just "mediocre" in my courses. I don't know what caused the change, but I'm now striving for marks in the 70's rather than settling for a 65

OMG:
It hasn't bothered me before but there's something wrong with the GRT bus drivers. The other day I took the GRT and got on the wrong bus, I thought was going to take me to Congestoga. When I was the last person on the bus, the bus driver turned to me and asked if I planned to go back to the University as a round trip. I said I guess, since I had no idea where I was and it was dark. She then starts yelling as me saying to look behind me and figure out what bus was behind us because I was just sitting there wasting my time. I looked behind us, THERE WAS NO BUS THERE. So I was like 'Uh...' She said another bus right behind us was suppose to take me to Conestoga and kept asking if I planned on getting off or not, in quite a rude manner. I was still unsure because here I was talking to a woman who believed there was a bus behind us when it clearly wasn't. She then turned around and said "You know what, you don't deserve to be dropped off" and continued the route. I honestly feel bad for bus drivers most of the time for the crap they get, so when I got off at the next stop, I said thank you to her like I do for all bus drivers. But honestly, I've never in my life met such awful or rude bus drivers before coming to Waterloo. The bus she was talking about came 20 minutes later.

OMG:
Racism isn't funny. Unless you are Ann Coulter.

MOD'S NOTE: In memory of a former MOD who left the team!

OMG:
About the laptop thefts happening in the library... Why don't somebody (UW Police?) set up a booby-trap to lure the thief, and when when the thief grabs the laptop and runs off... People can stop him/her at the door! Thus problem solved!

OMG:
Laurier limits its sublet board to its own students!

OMG:
Is it really necessary that we always mention race in every OMG? Like seriously every OMG about a person either mentions their race in the OP for no particular reason or the first question is "what race were they?"

OMG:
OMGUW should have a "professors" page where people can put their thoughts on UW professors. It would NOT be a place just to bash professors you don't like, but to give students choosing classes a better idea of what to expect from their prospective profs. If I had known about one or two of my professors teaching abilities beforehand, I would have chosen a different section.

OMG:
The wireless connection for UW must be the most horrible internet connection I've ever had to deal with!

OMG:
I'll never understand why people go on facebook and constantly update their statuses about their large percentage final exams, especially when they are the next day... how about studying more?

OMG:
I went home to study for exams because I thought there would be less distractions. I did not consider that being away from my boyfriend would make me drop 5 Freudian slips in one day while talking to my parents.

OMG:
Every strike of the heel sounds like a coffin nail...oh wait, it's just someone showing up late for an exam.

OMG:
I had a moment of bonding with a complete stranger at work today, when an older woman completely understood me when I told her I was spending all my free time with Dana Porter. Thank you for the consolation, U of W Alumni.

OMG:
Everytime I save a pdf from UWAce, my Firefox crashes. Is this a sign that I shouldn't be looking at exam reviews and lecture slides?!

OMG:
Doesn't "open enrollment" mean reserved seating is no longer reserved? Come on, quest!

OMG:
Today outside of residence these group of boys threw snowballs at us from the roof. Who does that kind of shit? I mean its exam time, seriously.

OMG:
ENGL 108F exam...seriously? Why did I even bother studying, it was like I was back in grade 7.

OMG:
Just realized as an international student I'll be paying over 120 grand by the time I graduate. I wonder if its worth it...

OMG:
Anyone else spending Christmas alone?

OMG:
Gotta love how mens washroom stale walls always seem to turn into forums for racial slurs and sexual references.

OMG:
As I handed in my english exam to my professor, I was so happy that I would never have to see her again, I started to cry a little.

OMG:
Some crazy girl in SLC tried to steal my subway sandwich off my table when I looked away. She shoved it into her bag, and I was like "excuse me?" and she's like "oh. I'm sorry", took it out, and ran away. Did she really think I wasn't going to notice that?!

OMG:
Damn it Waterloo, if you're going to be so annoying about the promissory note then make sure it WORKS when I submit it.

OMG:
Today, my roommate and I were so bored we kicked a rock from SCH to REV. It was probably the highlight of my week.

OMG:
Sometimes, I'd like OMGUW to be called WTFUW

MOD'S NOTE: Funny story about that...

OMG:
I wonder if I am the only one who is as excited for the rest of my grades as I am Christmas.

OMG:
I haven't been outside in over a week. I hate exams.

OMG:
Anyone else write the arbus/afm 131 exam and think "holy shit did an illiterate person write these questions?"

OMG:
To the guy in the REV gym around 12 today. I had to turn my iPod up to full volume to drown out the "ssss" sound you make everytime you lift a weight or do a sit up.

OMG:
To the guy in DC cubicles who has been clearing his throat for the past 4 hours, please just GO HOME and do it there!

OMG:
This is a song for the MODs.
"Hey! Here come the MODs! Look out! They're coming for you!"

MOD'S NOTE: Haha! This is amazing. It will accompany us everytime we update! :) Thanks.

OMG:
Ok. So I was on 10th floor of DP close to 3am a little while back. Just leaving. And librarian was talking to a girl who had just had her labtop stolen. Tragic I know. But the librarian stopped me and wanted to search my bag. I think that goes a little beyond their authority. I reluctantly cleared myself by showing the contents of my bag. But I was a little annoyed.

OMG:
You know what's awkward? When a girl is wearing an interesting-seeming shirt, but you can't read half of it because it would mean trying to read the underside of her boobs.

Girl in the SLC on Saturday morning, with the shirt that says "I heart [something]". What's the something? I want to know, but I don't want to be starin' at your breasts for several minutes trying to read it.

OMG:
This is what white people are like deep down folks! P.S. I'm white

OMG:
I just finished 16 hours of marking. I hope you appreciate me undergrads!

OMG:
The only good thing about being fat is that you stay warm in the winter.

OMG:
My parents have been abusing me most of my life, I finally move out and go to a decent school, cut off contact with them, and never go back home. Somehow, they still find ways to abuse me. There's gotta be a better way to do things.

OMG:
I hate the word 'albeit' with a burning passion. I refuse to ever use it in an essay.

OMG:
A bunch of nerdy asian kids freestyle rapping in MC 4th floor and they are actually good.

OMG:
To the man who shouted out "whats up Mr. Manhattan" when he saw the chick with the blue dildo, YOU ARE THE BEST.

OMG:
I just coughed so hard I threw up...in my bed. I hate colds.

OMG:
Dress appropriately UW!

OMG:
I never got an email from the ELPP and apparently I missed the exam? What will happen? Im so scared!

OMG:
To the idiots who stole the pool que at REV...can you bring it downstairs so I can play a quick game of pool with a kid who refuses to share? Thanks!

OMG:
My first time this semester being at DP to study. I didn't understand all that talk about loudness in the before super quiet library...but now I do... Thank god for music.

OMG:
I'm a ryerson student, but I'm SOOOOOO addicted to this awesome site. MODS you should expand this to all universities!

MOD'S NOTE: Give us an email at omgsubmit@gmail.com! We want to talk to you.

OMG:
If you lost your library books on the 29/31 bus today at 6pm, it's been turned into the GRT driver.

OMG:
So exams have me so stressed that I think I'm going to take up smoking.

OMG:
Haters gonna hate, but living with or around different cultures has made me even more intolerant towards them.

OMG:
It sucks when roommates have absolutely no understanding of what 23-hour quiet-hours means. I'm fairly sure it does not mean, "blast music and invite friends over whenever you please" time.

OMG:
Reading journal articles with grammatical errors makes me want to cry. How did they ever get published?

OMG:
Hey! You two lovebirds in the library who took all the good furniture! Take your picnic and go home! Or get a room!

OMG:
This girl is wearing black leggings without a skirt or anything. You see right through them and see her pink underwear.

OMG:
I was selfishly obsessing over how hard my life is having three exams in three days, then I remembered Tori Stafford

OMG:
Why is DC so flipping cold!? I would really like for my fingers to function properly so I can study.

OMG:
I would just like to warn students not to take RS 180 DE. What a nightmare.

OMG:
To whomever left their daily parking slip in the watcard slot in the UWP parking lot today (Dec. 10) around 2:30: Awesome, thanks for making my day.

OMG:
Just saw some kid pick his nose and eat it. Is caf food really that bad that people are resorting to eating things that come out of their body? HE DID IT AGAIN!!

OMG:
To the guy sitting in front of me in DC, I think it's kind of gross that you took off your shoes and your socks. This isn't your house, please put them back on.

OMG:
My friend and I just rewrote "journey to the past" from Anastasia to "journey to the PAC." I'm inspired to write my exams now.

OMG:
Walking through the 2nd floor of DC and looking down through the windows -- half the people at the cubes aren't even studying. Either a game or video or Facebook. Wow.

OMG:
Is it wrong that I check OMGUW on the daily and I don't even go to this school?

OMG:
To the couple sitting in front of the sexuality seminar this morning: its a PROFESSIONAL lecture, not a date. Your behaviour is not professional.
Sincerely, the girls sitting behind you who don't want to be a third, forth, or fifth wheel on your date

OMG:
Taking the last final exam for my Master's has made me nostalgic for exams of yore... in particular, the MUSIC 140 final where incorrect photocopying made it half the length it should be, and the professor couldn't do much except say "OK... do whatever questions are there, and Merry Christmas!"

OMG:
Why don't more people study in empty classrooms on campus? We have so many open at night.

OMG:
When I facecreep high school friends that are not in uni or college, I get immensely jealous, that I am stuck in DP basically crying and they're just running around loving life.

OMG:
To the people smoking inside the SLC: If I ever find you, I will make take your picture and forward it to campus police, as with that, they should be able to fine you, and I know it is at least a $500 fine. That would be the polite thing for me to do after all, rather than breaking your legs like I want to.

OMG:
This takes dedication

OMG:
I don't know what I hate seeing more on the subway: an accordion or a preacher.

OMG:
Instead of being sympathetic to my wrtier's block, my prof only told me to look at the accruing late penalties on my essay as motivation. For some reason, I respect her all the more for telling me this.

OMG:
Is it wrong to think that this thuggish looking guy walking around in DP with a jacket on and no backpack is there to steal laptops?
