Stephanie Sim

Steph is a second-year student at McGill University, who splits her time outside of Montreal equally between the sunshine of Texas and the snow-capped Rockies of Alberta. When not studying or writing blog posts she enjoys making home films of her friends and their adventures, creating a ridiculous amount playlists on Spotify, or binge-watching Jamie Oliver's cooking channel (all with endless cups of coffee in hand). 

Follow her personal blog for sporadic posts and videos about the current state of her life, her Spotify for playlists that can apply to every aspect of life, her Instagram for up-to-date snapshots of what she's doing, and her Twitter for pictures of cute pups and other relevant, overcaffeinated content.

    Thanksgiving Feast: Vegan Edition

    Here’s a list of vegan recipes that have passed the tried and true test, from both the vegans and non-vegans that were at my Thanksgiving feast this year. Even if you’re not celebrating Thanksgiving next week, these recipes are still delicious no matter when you’re craving sweet potatoes, gravy, and all things pumpkin.

  • They Live on Through Our Remembering: The Centenary of WWI

    The red flowers began appearing on lapels last Wednesday, October 25th when the official poppy distribution began. While this annual tradition is nothing out of the ordinary for Canadians it holds even more significance this year with the mark of 100 years since the end of The Great War. As a mark of tribute to honor those involved in the war efforts, many companies and organizations took their recognition efforts a step further this year.

  • Giving Back to Montreal: An Interview with Homework Zone Coordinator Kate Turpie

    Meet Kate Turpie, a third-year McGill student working towards a B.Sc in Microbiology and Immunology, with a minor in Gender, Sexuality, Feminism, and Social Justice. While balancing her busy schedule at school and the tremendous workload that accompanies it, Kate also makes an effort to give back to the Montreal community through the Homework Zone. She was kind enough to lend us some of her precious time to talk about the program and how it benefits both the Montreal community outside of the McGill bubble and the students from McGill who participate in it.
