OMG UPDATE: Some changes are coming to OMGUW very soon, stay tuned!

#13382 Wednesday, August 29

OMG:
I've broken up with my best friend by circumstance. If I were dating her, I'd go out to find all those other fish in the sea--it'd be easy. But she was my best friend.

#13381

OMG:
Mixed signals are the worst. Guys, don't blow hot and cold. If you like someone don't play games.

#13380

OMG:
So many chicks on this campus are so RATCHET! Seriously, the geese have better style

#13379

OMG:
Move in day is fast approaching! I missed you, Waterloo!

#13378

OMG:
Now that I genuinely like a girl, I stopped masturbating. I just don't have the drive for it. The only problem is I can't ask her out :(

#13377

OMG:
I am really unimpressed that the welcome week website still has the 2011 banner on it.

#13376

OMG:
Just let a fart slip on the job, probably the loudest fart of my life... Super embarrassing.

#13375

OMG:
Why do I have so much stuff??? I hate packing so much.

#13374

OMG:
Let me get this straight, we're getting rid of FEDS HALL and building a NEW student building? Well that's a damn good way to spend my tuition...

#13373 Saturday, August 25

OMG:
This past term was a strong reminder of how unwilling students in my program (AFM), and the SAF in general, are in trying to work together on challenging topics. When I came to this school, it was with the hope of collaborating with other students who shared similar views and goals. Now it's beginning to feel like no one cares about working together; it's more about serving self-interest. When did we start turning into such pompous pr*cks??!

#13372

OMG:
Even as a non-engineer student at UW, this is hilarious. I wish I had the brains to be an engineer student though! (anything math related is rocket science to me).

#13371

OMG:
I might have fallen for my roommate....

#13370

OMG:
Getting my first home, so exciited!!!

#13369

OMG:
NOOOOOOOOOOOO! Ish and Chips burned down.

#13368

OMG:
Ever since OMGASK started, people have stopped putting in effort to google things. Come on people, our school is getting so lazy!

#13367

OMG:
I am tired of being whistled at! I will admit that it boosts my self esteem, especially with a new look that I am unsure about, but if would make me feel a bajillion times better if someone actually came up to me and said "Hey, you know what, you're really pretty" and then went on their way.

#13366

OMG:
Lets go Waterloo! Another busy fall is almost upon us again! Show your true colours!

#13365

OMG:
Dear boys at UW, please get hotter, cause I'm significantly running out of girl options...

#13364 Wednesday, August 22

OMG:
I feel like I can identify certain comments in comment sections with certain types of people I meet on campus.

#13363

OMG:
My ex broke my heart and I want to stay away from him so badly that I almost dont want to return to UW after my co-op term ends this summer. This fear I will hide though, I'll act as if nothing's bothering me, nothing at all.

#13362

OMG:
If I ever hear a university student say this guy/girl is out of my league I'll slap them. Seriously, this is not high school anymore! I'm tired of hearing my friends telling me this or that is out of my league. Grow up. You wanna know why that guy/girl wont go out with you? Its not because they're out of your league, its because you're an unconfident person! How do you expect someone to love you when you don't love yourself?!

#13361

OMG:
WHY is this DE course taking so long to post the marks? Any one still waiting for their marks?

#13360

OMG:
I've been living in a developing country until I got here at UW just 48 hours earlier. I feel so ashamed that I can't resist to drink the raw tap water here, because you know, in my country, this kind of behavior might get you killed so I've rarely done that before. I find myself astonishingly cheap.

#13359

OMG:
After requiring to withdrawal after one year at Waterloo due to some really bad habits I had taken up I decided to take a year off to collect myself. Now as I see it I simply dont have it in me to go back. I commend all of you who stay vigilant in your studies.

#13358

OMG:
For those still contemplating grad school, let this be a reminder if you haven't seen it yet.

#13357 Friday, August 17

OMG: 
Mods: What's the most awkward OMG you've rejected?

MOD'S Note: I'll give you sort of an example below.

#13356

OMG:
I am turned on. And I won't hump anybody unless I'm in a serious relationship. I lost my vibrator. And I don't like touching myself, it doesn't work for me. BUT IM SO TURNED ON.

MOD'S Note: Indeed.

#13355

OMG:
I am so bad with men. I'm beautiful. That gets men talking to me for a minute or two. But after that, its the personality that matters. And I have no clue how to flirt, how to remain interesting, etc.

#13354

OMG: 
 Well at least we're not Kinesiology students at Laurier...

#13353

OMG:
More guys should ask girls out. Don't let it be an MC. If you see a girl you think is attractive, just ask her out, even if you think she's out of your league. Chances are she'll respect you for having guts. And girls, give the guy a chance, its just a date not a commitment.

#13352

OMG:
uwaterloo.ca has been redone! 

#13351

OMG:
TIL: Apparently male athletes are called 'Warriors' and female athletes are called 'Athenas' at Waterloo.

#13350

OMG:
Getting real tired of the engineering elitists.

#13449

OMG:
I can't find any info about welcome week. No free concert this year?

#13348 Wednesday, August 15

OMG:
Why doesn't Waterloo have a track? Why is the pool only 25m instead of the real size of 50m? Our athletic facilities are the equivalent of a high school in Kansas, meanwhile other schools get funding up the wazoo to improve theirs.

#13447

OMG:
Holy shit. I got my first 90 in university... never thought this would happen. My hard work has paid off.

#13446

OMG:
My TA came up on Grindr. Awkward.

#13445

OMG:
Thanks a lot, Ministry of the Attorney General. The last thing I wanted to get three weeks before I leave for my Fall work term is a goddamn Jury Summons.

#13444

OMG:
Seriously, how long does it take to fix a bank of lights? I can't stand the PAC pool being closed :(

#13443 Tuesday, August 14

OMG:
Dear Food Services: believe it or not people still work on this campus and would like to buy from the SLC Tim Horton's before they go to their jobs. I know money is very tough for the university over the next 2 weeks. However, if you could somehow absorb the $76 in wages it costs to open at 6:30 am instead of 7:30 am, it would be much appreciated by the customers. I am sure the costs will be recovered when the campus returns to full swing.

#13442 Monday, August 13

OMG:

Here comes the end of another co-op term. Remember to rate your co-op job.

#13441

OMG:
I love that feeling of passing a course you weren't sure if you were going to pass or not!

#13440

OMG:
Thanks waterloo! I appreciate that you waited all this time to tell me I owe you 50 dollars. I also really REALLY appreciate that you will likely withhold my exam results, thereby leaving me to wonder if I have passed or failed. I hate you. Enjoy your fifty bucks, maybe make another bridge between two buildings with doors ten meters apart with it.

#13439

OMG:
I like to call Waterloo "Eau de Toilette" since water = eau, and loo = toilette (in French)

MOD'S NOTE: As in a lightly scented perfume?

#13438

OMG:
Undergraduate 4 months = almost $9000 now. Tuition grew more than four times Consumer Price Index inflation this year. Should I organize a protest?

#13437

OMG:
At UW BYOB means Bring Your Own Books.

#13436 Friday, August 10

OMG:
I like the geese on campus more than the people on campus. 

#13435

OMG:
 Why are all the engineering buildings grey ? Have you heard of primary colors?

#13434

OMG: 
I don't think girls appreciate the fact that they don't get BSTL in hot weather enough. 

#13433

OMG:
With a school filled with top engineering and computer science students, I'm surprised a military technology/weapons manufacturing company isn't located in Waterloo, anyone down to start Stark Industries?

MOD'S Note: Raytheon? 

#13432

OMG:
 It sucks to stay until the last day of exams because of MSCI 261. It's one of the most useless courses I've had the pleasure of being forced to take. 

#13431

OMG:
I wonder if I am the only one who has to drop by all PAC entrances to figure out the correct one to step in for an exam as UW Odyssey instructs. 

#13430 Wednesday, August 8

OMG:
Going commando because I haven't had the time to do my laundry!

#13429

OMG:
I'm waiting until the last day to pay my fall tuition so I can enjoy looking at my co-op money in the bank for a little bit longer.

#13428

OMG:
I don't think that guys appreciate the fact that they don't have a uterus enough.

#13427

OMG:
What's the point of showing the final under grades in Learn, if the grade for your final never actually gets posted to Learn...

#13426

OMG:
If you have a job where you have to clean up after students, this place stops feeling like a university and starts feeling like a glorified day-care.

#13425

OMG:
It's amazing how people try to appease their guilt after hurting someone. If you think you hurt someone, deal with it. If you apologize, do it because you're sorry, not because you want to remove your guilt. If you do something sweet, do it because you care, not because you want to erase the guilt.

#13424

OMG:
What happened to the chat? What's going on Mods? Fix it! Please fix the chat! I demand it. How else will I communicate with fellow chatspeakers, huh? I miss random people who enter it. Will they stay long? Will they say "hi" and then leave? I don't know, because the chat feature isn't working.

MOD'S NOTE: We're looking into the issue and will update when we find out more.

#13423

OMG:
I want the ILU section back, just so I can express my love for Ryan Lochte.

#13422

OMG:
Memorization of formulae is the most useless exercise that this university makes you go through for some of the stupidest courses going. I put it to you OMG who is smarter the person who can recite 100 formulas or the person who can apply 100 formulas after looking at it? It's ridiculous how some courses are treated. I didn't come here to become a parrot.

#13421

OMG:
Sometimes I read the comments on here and wonder if these people got through the same requirements I did.

#13420

OMG:
I need someone to talk to. I just need someone to talk to. I just really really need someone to talk to. How hard can that be? All my friends are busy. And I'm so alone. I feel like I'm going crazy

MOD'S NOTE:  You can always email us at omgsubmit8@gmail.comHang in there, OP!

#13419

OMG:
To the brunette with a bird tattoo on her back who told 4 incredibly noisy guys to quiet down in the lower level of DC: you're a hero :) Thanks! They needed that.

#13418

OMG:
To the person who accidently walked away from the DC ATM without his/her cash... I took the liberty of holding onto it for you and will turn it in at the bank tomorrow. I noted the time and location, so hopefully this will be enough to make it back to you. :)

#13417 Monday, August 6

OMG:
I hate that feeling of not being 100% sure if you passed or failed a course after writing the exam.

#13416

OMG:
To the inconsiderate twats that left a ton of food garbage at the front of MC 4041... Congratulations, you are scumbags. I for one would appreciate these classrooms being left open for us to use, not closed down because of dumbasses.

#13415

OMG:
I'm so scared. I really need a hug. I wish I had a family. Friendship doesn't last.

MOD'S NOTE: *virtual hug* Hang in there, OP!

#13414

OMG:
It's super hypocritical of UW to pretend to support feminism when they still call it woMAN's studies

#13413

OMG:
Why would you take up an entire group study room by yourself to facebook and skype your mom in the dark?

#13412

OMG:
Why don't they cement the diagonal path in DC quad? It's gets all mucky when it rains.

#13411

OMG:
I need to start wearing something to identify myself with at CIF, just so that way I will know if any MCs are written about me

#13410

OMG:
It's been two years since I graduated and I still follow this blog. What the eff is wrong with me?

#13409 Friday, August 3

OMG:
Are they trying to freeze us to death in the PAC?

#13408

OMG:
DP, I am not a contortionist, please move the plug outlets where they are visible!

#13407

OMG:
For students coming to the library early in the morning to save seats for your friends, it's nice, but don't save five seats and leave them unoccupied until 4-5pm in the afternoon. They are not your personal desks, they are there for the students to share. It is completely rude and inconsiderate.

#13406

OMG:
I hate it when people refer to Waterloo as "loo"!

#13405

OMG:
What do you guys think is the most bullshit program offered by Waterloo?

#13404

OMG:
How many boyfriends would expect their girlfriends to be on birth control pill?

#13403

OMG:
Last month, police charged a University of Waterloo copy centre supervisor with fraud totaling $955,000.

#13402 Wednesday, August 1

OMG:
Think I learned now that when the prof says the final exam is cumulative, it usually always means you'll have 1 or 2 questions pre-midterm material.

#13401

OMG:
LEARN trying to log me out every hour wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the 3+ focus-stealing alert boxes I have to dismiss. Why is this even a feature?

#13400

OMG:
GF missed period despite being on birth control. I am scared shitless. I know sex is on everyone's minds all the time, and yeah it is fun, but the repercussions are heavy if you don't take the extra precaution needed. Be careful.

#13399

OMG:
I hate passive aggressive people.

#13398

OMG:
One more cell phone robber is off the streets.

#13397

OMG:
Is it just me or did Fall term tuition increase by about $600? Did I miss something?

#13396

OMG:
The students working the grass crews on campus are so lazy. I watched out my res window as one of them went around the building with a string trimmer. She would shut it off, walk 5 feet, stop, fire it up again, rinse and repeat. I did this shit when I was in like grade 8, several hours a day, and moved way faster than this. I also frequently see them standing around, or hiding in the shed by REV.

#13395

OMG:
It's kind of irritating when profs post old exams and practice problems, and then you realize that all the questions on the sample problems are either also on the assignments from this term, or used as examples in lectures.

#13394

OMG:
I'm sick of people saying the people at this school suck! I've met tons of cool people. You're probably an asshole and/or close minded.

#13393

OMG:
The only reason I haven't switched out of UW at this point is because I'm going into my 4th year. This place is the biggest shithole I've ever been at, it doesn't care about it's students in the least unless you're an engineer.

#13392

OMG:
My skill at rote memorization is failing me as I age. Statistics, it's been a short and painful relationship, and I hope that come Monday morning we can both go our separate ways.
