I hate house hunting and I hate house hunting for winter term even more.

In spring you can cheap out and get something with no AC a stupid distance from campus because the weather is nice and fans are cheap.

In winter, if you cheap out, you get to walk through SLUSH to school and the heat goes out in the middle of the night and GUESS WHO GETS TO RELIGHT THE PILOT LIGHT

House hunting for two is even tougher. If it was for 1 I would be okay getting something in, like, Kitchener and taking the iExpress to and from school every day. But noooo she wants something "walking distance." Ha ha dude you have a car, and there are half a dozen bus routes that go to campus, and you want to WALK to school in the winter for $100-200 more?
