Last thread was two years old. Been here for a year now. Although I like Philadelphia, the amount of trash on the streets and sidewalks was a shock after having grown up in Charlotte which has a reputation for being very clean.

I was actually born and raised in Philadephia; west Philadelphia to be exact. It's a great area for chilling out and enjoying outdoor sports, basketball being my favorite after school pastime.

I truly enjoyed my time there, though I eventually settled in Bel Air as I neared adulthood.

5/31/2011 11:33:12 AM

HOLLA! Philly represent.

5/31/2011 3:13:44 PM

I don't really have time to go out during the week. Then I'm in OCMD for the weekend.

What part of Philly are you from?

5/31/2011 3:20:55 PM

outside of Philly, Hatboro, PA

5/31/2011 3:25:48 PM

That's way north of Philly.

Minkagrl01, would you like to hang out and get something to eat in Philly sometime?

5/31/2011 3:29:59 PM

Nevermind. I noticed the picture of your engagement ring.

5/31/2011 3:36:47 PM

Not engaged anymore. PM sent.

Philly fucking rules. I have a blast every time I visit.

8/12/2011 1:05:50 AM

Philly is fun. I go there to visit family once a year. It smells like urine in the summer though.

If you are up for some hipster bowling, Lucky Strike lanes are right around the corner.

12/6/2011 11:27:39 AM

^^I'm thinking of making plans to check that place out this Saturday

12/6/2011 1:08:03 PM

Looks yummy.

12/6/2011 1:09:06 PM

I went to http://www.whitedog.com/ a couple of weekends ago. very yummy!

So around where are most of you from? I was born in Bethlehem, raised in Oaks (Montgomery County), and currently live in Drexel Hill. I actually hadn't heard of NC State until my sister (who goes to Duke for grad school) recommended it, and I loved it more than Penn State and Pitt. And ironically, it is cheaper for me to go to NC State than Pitt or Penn STate.

12/6/2011 1:31:47 PM

I was raised in Hatboro and Fishtown, moved to NC before college, and moved back to PA last year. Right now I'm working out in Exton but I'm looking for a job either in or at least closer to the city. Traveling this far out sucks.

12/6/2011 1:41:31 PM

Visiting the 20-23 this month. Anything fun going on then?

12/6/2011 1:44:29 PM

I grew up in Wynnewood. Went to Lower Merion. Kobe was 2 years older than me. Stayed close. Went to UDel. Nova for grad. Thinking about UPenn for an MBA if I want to do a career change and go the wall street route. GF is pushing me to. Living and working in Wilmington DE right now.

12/7/2011 1:55:42 PM

So just got to Philly. Got dragged to Moore College while my friend takes a class. Then Barbuzzo. Woohoo.

12/8/2011 7:39:13 PM

anyone hanging around the city for new years? we're doing the helium club for some comedy and the countdown.

12/20/2011 6:48:37 PM

On a train from nyc there now.

12/20/2011 9:12:40 PM

That was me on Saturday. Except megabus. $11 and free wifi and power. Might try the train next time.

12/20/2011 11:51:11 PM

NJ transit was only $15 from NYC and about 90 min. Not bad considering I purchased the ticket about 30 min prior to departure.

12/21/2011 1:15:30 AM

I'll be in Philly to see the Phillies vs. Braves game but the NCSU vs. FSU game is earlier that day. Does anyone know of a good bar to watch the game? I'll be with another alum if anyone wants to get together.
