If you want to be a bit healthier, you can replace chocolate chips with cranberries or raisins. Also if you have certain dietary restrictions, flour and icing sugar are easily modifiable to gluten or vegan-friendly alternatives.
If the special guests and food aren’t enough to entice you, the party is going to have carnival games, face painting, raffle prizes and its very own Snapchat geotag. UBC, is this where our increased tuition fees are going?
We’re staying up later studying for upcoming exams, cramming for term papers due tomorrow and reading textbooks that haven’t been opened since January. What does this result in you ask? The snooze button being hit several times a morning.
With free-falling elevators in Ponderosa, sinks lacking their sole purpose in the Nest and constant electronic issues in the classroom, it's not surprising that UBC Building Operations receives many complaints from students and faculty every day.
Second, it’s not good to be sitting all day. Even if you’re at home, going outside for a while after a meal decreases blood sugar levels. Go to the grocery store or the drug store and get your errands done — you’ll kill two birds with one stone!

Alcohol-infused foods are actually pretty freaking sneaky. For all you know, that kid that’s always eating watermelon next to you in the library could just be getting a buzz on while he does his biology homework.
As we approach reading week, we approach the midway of the semester — in other words, midterm season is upon us. So while your head is in a pile of books, what better way to fuel yourself than some study food?
