<p>Ahh, I guess Tsengun and I have to worry about our english!! I hope we don’t have much trouble with classes…
Btw, Friends is the best! I think I’ve seen every episode more than twice.</p>
<p>That includes me too.. >.< I’m still learning..</p>
<p>There are some speaking courses around here. Do you think going there is a good idea? Honestly, I have never talked to any foreigner except Japanese people for more than 10 minutes. But I will be like talking to them for 24/7 once I get there. LOL</p>
<p>I really should be prepping!!! And the others as well if you think you are not good enough.</p>
<p>I have no experience and don’t know anyone who does…but I think anything you can do to work on your english speaking skills will be beneficial for you.</p>
<p>Do we have to remove personal possessions from our room when we leave for the winter break?</p>
<p>nope, just make sure you empty your fridge/freezer (wouldnt want to stink up the room) and unplug your appliances.</p>
<p>So we only have to remove everything for the summer vacation?</p>
<p>yeap, everything must be cleared out by the end of school</p>
<p>Cool. Thanks everyone.</p>
<p>Is there any bus at break time to get students who don’t have a car to an airport?</p>
<p>There is a charter bus service that goes to Syracuse. You can take a cab to the Ithaca airport.</p>
<p>I know I can apply for and obtain a NY driving license when I get to Cornell but, as an international student, can I get an international permit from the US so that I can use my NY license to drive in other countries? I’m not sure about this but I think I read somewhere that they only give international permits to permanent US residents.</p>
<p>I tried emailing the NY DMV but all I got was a link to some FAQ which was not even remotely close to my question and when I tried calling, I couldn’t get through to them. The number I dialed was (001) 518-473-5595 which they’ve listed as the number to use for people from outside New York State; is there another number that people from outside the US should use? Is there any other way to contact them?</p>
<p>a great way to catch up on pop culture would be to watch HBO’s Entourage (cable tv series)</p>
