<p>how do you activate your netid and stuff? im so out of the loop.</p>
<p>yargg!!!! where the fu/ck have u been!!</p>
<p>I dont know, but i figured out how to register my email, booyah.</p>
<p>its mhboldin@<whatever it="" is..="" i="" guess="" syr.edu="" or="" something=""></whatever></p>
<p>Ya, I visited a friend of a friend up there. She seemed alright with her building "on the mount" (hooray for college lingo). The stairs are rough, but bearable...well maybe not with a load of books or if you're in a hurry.
You said something about a bus- is there a transport system on a schedule or something? Can you/ your sister tell me about it?</p>
<p>woah sorry just realized that I meant to reply to something hailey said a while ago. sry this breaks the flow here, but if you get where this fits in, could you explain the transport from the dorms?</p>
<p>theres a bus schedule on the website. the cuse website has <em>in awe</em> eeeeverythiiiiiiiiiing.........</p>
<p>Well guys I've lived in Syracuse all my life and know the SU campus like the back if my hand (Summer programs and stuff) The campus is very nice and it is near a housing development (ghetto lol) but it is also smack in the middle of one of our busiest areas (businesses, hospital, churches) so the chance of you getting robbed at gunpoint is so small it's crazy. I have tons of friends and family at SU and all of them would laugh if you asked them if they were scared of getting robbed. And in reference to the aforemetioned "ghetto", it's so not dangerous that the other ghettos in Syracuse refer to it as "the nice ghetto" lol If anyone else has questions about the SU campus, don't be scared to ask!</p>
<p>guys, I live on the Mount now, and its honestly not as bad as everyone makes it seem. yeah, the steps do suck after a long day of classes, but you couldnt get any better spot on campus as far as location goes. once you're down the steps, you can walk 2 mins and you're on the quad. I've LOVED my year on the Mount and I would def recommend it more than Shaw or Haven.</p>
<p>So relatively speaking, it's safe enough that I won't have to worry about being not safe, right? Which part of the campus is not so safe? How about the downtown scene at night? Also, places for good/inexpensive food off/on campus. How is Dellplain Hall for dorming?</p>
<p>what about lawrinson??? and what about the mall??</p>
<p>omg syracuse has the CAROUSEL MALL!! IT IS HUGEEEEEE :D
if i remember correctly it was about a 10 minute drive from the campus.. might be a little more but wow that mall has everything.</p>
<p>i can't wait to find out about dorming... i don't mind day or flint. i actually want to walk those stairs because i don't want to gain any weight during college. at least i want to try my best not too :)</p>
<p>There's really no side of campus that is more dangerous than the other, because is pretty much enclosed by the city on all sides...no suburbs on one side and urban on the other...pretty much all urban and business district. There is a little section on the campus called Marshall Square. It has clothing botiques (J. Michaels...nice, trendy clothes but kinda expensive), Follet's bookstore, videogame store, Starbucks...etc. Lot's of good places to eat also. Cosmo's (typical pizza shop, not bad and really cheap), Varsity (good pizza, really packed during basketball season and on weekends) Acropolis (my favorite, really good pizza....alot of Greek food) Panda West (trendy Asian cuisine spot) lots of little good eateries around campus. Like hailey said....Carousel is less than 12 minutes away, has just about everything you should need. And they are starting construction on it, which when finishedm will be the biggest mall in America</p>
<p>OMG ITS GONNA BE BIGGER THAN THE MALL OF AMERICA!!!!!!!!! OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG......SOOOOOO MUCH SHOPPPPPPPPING..............................................................<em>faints</em></p>
<p>the best part of syracuse for me is that little section on eerie road which has this cute little korean restaurant and the korean supermarket/video store next to the restaurant. being korean... i need my korean food/snacks. thank god for that in syracuse :D</p>
<p>and also on eerie road it has like ALL THE RESTAURANTS one can imagine. omg.. just one after another. my sister & her roommate would go out every weekend to carousel and watch a movie, then would go to a restaurant on eerie road. her goal is to go to every single one of them before she graduate.</p>
<p>HAILEY(!!!) does the market have good korean sushi and...chicken....and those frozen yogurt drinks which you peel the plastic to get at if you dont let it melt?</p>
<p>Hows the chinese food/markets?
The taxi driver told me that the chinese markets (like 3?) have "about anything you could want," but then he wasn't Chinese. :p</p>
<p>When I was there I went to a Japanese restraunt called Ichiban and it was very stylish, with bennihana type cooking tables going on, but the miso soup didn't taste like miso soup (And there was noodles in it, which I've never seen before), and thier green tea was Chinese instead of Japanese. So. How're the other asian restraunts? :x</p>
<p>P.S. They also had little clips for your chopsticks! I've never ever seen those before here in SF. Only the one that my dad invented for himself.</p>
<p>OMG AND IS THERE A (nice) DIM SUM RESTRAUNT ANYWHERE? I heart dim sum. <3 Do they serve chicken feet? (The red kind?)</p>
<p>whats dim????????</p>
<p>omg i love asian ****. i wish i was aisan but hey. im studying japanese. ichiban means one long slonder object. hm.</p>
<p>i love hearing about all those restuarants. i wanna eventually go to all of them too!! man. syracuse sounds better and better to me the close the time comes for me to leave and go there. i cant wait!!!!</p>
<p>Hahahha I didn't make the long slender object connection lol. I just figured it meant "Number one!" since it said something along those lines in english under the name... XD. I'm sure there must be another meaning for "ban." X)
What year are you in for Jap and Spanish?
Anyway...are you asking what dim sum is..? :O No way?!</p>
<p>Yeah...the restaraunt is called "Ichiban Steakhouse". It's actually starting to become a real trendy place to eat for young "preppie" kids...they actually wear the shirts that the restaraunt sells lol But in reference to Hailey, the street is Erie Blvd. (not being nit-picky it just sounds funny the way you said it lol) And besides Carousel, it's pretty much the "everything" place in Syracuse. Kinda like our version of the strip in Miami....minus all the dance clubs and supermodels.</p>
<p>ahhahh thefreshprince while i was typing it i wasn't sure if it was erie blvd or road so i just chose road lol wrong choice!</p>
<p>and as for the korean supermarket hmm more like grocery.. i'm not too sure what you're talking about the frozen yogurts.. i think i have an idea but yeaa lol as for korean sushi.. it's actually kimbap because sushi is japanese food :D i don't remember if they sell kimbap there but they do sell everything you need to make one!</p>
<p>yea faleene im asking what a dim is. sue me. ;)</p>
<p>for jap im in first. spanish i took 2nd last yr.</p>
<p>This year=1st year for me as well, and 4th year spanish. And I just realized today in Japanese class, "-ban" isn't "long cylindrical object" afterall! :o it's -hon/bon/pon! :o</p>
<p>Dimsum restraunts basically sit you down and waiters walk around with dimsum type food which is basically dishes of various chinese foods and each dish you choose costs you something and they stamp your card under the right column.</p>
<p>And it's kimbap? I've heard that word before, nice to know what it is finally. I hope i remember. X)</p>
