Sounds perfect! Around what time?

Free booze starts at 7:30, don't miss it!

ould, but Thorne lobby gets crowded as heck. Presumably you could find each other in the atrium ahead of time if you planned a spot to meet. (I'm also assuming you don't plan on outing yourself to non-thread regulars)[/quote]
Trying to think of an easy landmark in the atrium...how about near the door to the admissions office?[/quote]

On my way to Wigmore

So sad to be on my way out of Chicago right now- but I can't wait to come back in the fall!

I know right! I'm still there, going to look at housing today around the gold coast to see if I can find somethiing cheaper than the onnes they showed us, hopefully I make up my mind and put a waiting list deposit!

See you in the fall!!

ASW was awesome, you guys! Even though a lot of the info was redundant for me, having been here last year, I am so glad I came to meet MY future classmates. Class of 2015 seems like a great group.

Agreed. It was great to meet everybody. I'm even more satisfied with my decision to go to Northwestern now (which is saying something).

I spoke with Tyler, who heads up StudentSpace, during the housing tour; he did say that there was a lesser-known building up on Delaware St. (less than a 5-minute walk to campus) that exclusively rented out studios. Although the view and space is smaller than what we've toured, he mentioned that the cost is substantially lower. I've emailed him to get more info on that and other places.

A couple of you mentioned rent cost as a large concern, so just throwing it out there if anyone wanted me to relay specific information. I live downtown and will be touring apartments frequently, so if someone had specific concerns about if a building was clean or aesthetic (going back to our smoke conversation), I could stop by and take pictures or something.

as promised, new avatar to sum up ASW
*claps* class of 2015!

Literally lol'd.

Looks like I missed out on some cool shit.

At any rate, after you guys deposit, the very next website you must visit is http://www.chicagohalfmarathon.com/

(and no wussying out and signing up for the 5K!)

You're not a Northwestern student unless you're breaking shit.

trying to decide if I could be ready for that by september

the TCR is yes (http://www.marathonrookie.com/support-f ... hedule.pdf)

hmmm. I mean, that certainly would be good motivation...

Um cactuar are you cereal right now? Because if you are, CHALLENGE ACCEPTED! I will have buttloads of free time starting in June.

oooh. will you train with me in Chicago in June if I do it?

i'm as cereal as cereal can be. barring some miracle acceptances, i think i will be in chicago this fall! (and running this race)

Yayyy!!

Also, 100% yes scarlet. I will absolutely train with you.

and Crumps and I will be waiting for you at the finish line with this:

I think if we have this much we won't finish it all...

I think we can handle it all.

I'm actually pretty excited for this- a half marathon was my new years resolution and I've been slacking like mad.

so you guys are going to run carrying what looks like 1,000 cases of beer AND finish before us?! i think you'll definitely get some sick man abs after that...

I'm in. *gulp*

This + tar = you are my fave. <3

woohoo!!! I love this- we can all encourage each other (and certain people can make us feel bad about ourselves).
