residence

a very topical question about the cold

I was just wondering,?? is it cold in residences without air conditioning D: Because I am a total wimp and get colds before the temperature even hits 0?C.

Thank you & have a nice day \ o /

hey there,

i assume you mean heating, not air conditioning. and, well, it does get pretty cold here. i’m not gonna sugar-coat it, man. according to this, Toronto’s coldest weather last year felt like -26 degrees. Today, one year later, it feels about -30.

however, there are things you can do about the cold! I’d recommend bringing a few thick blankets and a comforter with you to residence, as well as a whole bunch of sweaters. Buy some good slippers and lots of woolly socks. Also, you can bring a portable heater with you! I did that last year when i lived in residence, and it worked like a charm. It sat on my desk and could warm my whole bedroom in an hour if i closed the door.

finally, you can always depend on the warmth and kindness of your neighbours, who will, i’m sure, always be up for a group huddle when the going gets tough. that’s what uni residences are all about, as far as i’m concerned.

so as long you make sure to stay one step ahead of the cold, you should be fine 🙂

your metaphorical academic blanket,

aska
