<p>Haha. The funny thing is that I actually come from a high school which only supplies coke products, so I am used to it. Pepsi really is awful. Its too sweet and just plain bad.</p>

<p>of course!!!!!! no one has better applicants than the school in the capital of the dirrty south! lol, our apps kick ass over those hyp skanks lol</p>
<p>the dirrrty dirrrty is right. hotlanta.. welcome to atlanta where the playas play and we ride on them things like everday big beats hit streets see gangstas roamin.. and parties don't stop till 6 in the mornin!</p>
<p>You should look at the Emory thread on the old board. People from the class of 08' were saying how they frequently saw well-known rappers in clubs in Atlanta. Sounds awesome...</p>
<p>i wouldn't doubt it. but those clubs are such a pain to get into, i'm sure they saw them passing from the line that stretched a few blocks down as the stars made their way to V.I.P. Atlanta is home to some of the hottest clubs, namely Club 112, hence the group 112, but not only is that club impossible to get into, but pretty dangerous from what i've heard. but what the hell, i'm sure its amazing so it balances out haha.</p>
<p>Clubs aren't a pain to get into. They actually advertise it to the freshman class by distributing flyers to each room on your floor. Then you go, pay $10 or $20, sometimes differing by gender, and go inside (ID doesn't matter cuz it's 18 and up usually). The rappers have showed I think in three clubs this year. I'm not a big rap fan so I don't know who they were specifically but I remember the guy who sang "Locked Up," missy elliot, some kind of kwon (jay kwon?), and a bunch of others. Plus an MTV dj was at one of the clubs.</p>
<p>"Locked Up" is by Akon. Its J Kwon.. Those are pretty big names actually. Other than clubs, what is the night scene like? I mean, are there a lot of good restaurants nearby (cheap or expensive)? Though I might just be content going to the Buckhead dinner and the Clubhouse. Both very good...</p>
