If he comes I'll give you all the credit!

Off topic, anyone saw that guy who was extremely under-dressed on Saturday?
What was he thinking coming in jersey and jeans?











Yup, that was me.

Sorry, didn't notice. But remember the P&G girl who got picked on during the Core Faculty lecture? Yeah that one was me.

How did you guys find your housing?

I've been looking at https://www.housingsolutions.com/ but it's not very descriptive.

thanks in advance

Dude, you want my input?
It is on the high side... and I think boilerworks in general lacks natural light.
The plus side is that the place is close to college town & sage hall
But I think you might be able to find some place on the street that's equally desirable for a lower price, or live on the north side.. which is a quieter neighborhood (cayuga height)

But what you really should do is to find a place with me and it should be much cheaper!
It is so much easier for 2 ppl to find something that'll cost $800 or so per person.

I did manage to get my winter coat stolen at a bar on Friday night. That was awesome since the high temp was 40 degrees on Saturday and it rained all day. Apparently the bar we were at is known for coat stealing, so I learned a valuable lesson about Ithaca bars. 4 years in Michigan and never got a coat stolen, 1 day in Ithaca and coat was gone.

Your coat got stolen?! That sucks. I hope the rest of the weekend turned out well though!
