Exactly! I had lots of fun partying and going to school there, it was just the whole "living there" part that got to me I guess. Personally I just couldn't live there long term.

One thing I would do differently is live downtown. Or close to downtown. Or somewhere that is on a bus route that runs frequently. After living in residence the first year, I moved off campus with friends and we seriously lived in the worst location ever. It took forever to get anywhere. Mostly due to transit...

One thing I do miss is the Sticky Wicket. I loved that place, many good nights there watching Flames-Canucks games and ripping it up on the dance floor with all the oldies, haha.
