[Beezy]

Bronx, bitch!

[Himu]

i saw a cheesy home depot bronx ad when driving, beezy. "bronx marks the spot" or some shit and a home depot logo. I just laughed and thought,"hahahaha beezy"

[Beezy]

I'm assuming that was on the I-95?

[Himu]

YES

[Raban]

Bronx, bitch!

Beezy you live in the Bronx? Goddamn.

[Barry Egan]

I dunno, how true is the reputation that Bronx is the most unsafe borough? I'm not usually the one to believe shit like that, but my friend assures me I should never go to the Bronx.

[Eric P]

fuck yes the bronx is the most dangerous neighborhood ever

It's got its good parts and bad parts, like anywhere else in the city...

Figured as much.

Yeah. Brooklyn has been worse with crime for like the past decade I think, but both have good and bad areas.

It was really bad though when I was growing up in the 90s.

So EB has 3 Bronx members? Queens

I never heard of Riverdale until I started high school. During the first week I accidentally got on the 10 bus going into Riverdale (instead of the one that goes to Gunhill Rd) and all the white people and nice homes confused me.

[Raban]

Well it seems like my gay buddy doesn't want to live anywhere but Manhattan, upper east side.

[Beezy]

Then I hope he has the money for it. Anywhere in Manhattan is expensive unless you have roommates.

[BlueTsunami]

Tell him he's been watchin' too much Sex in the City

Well we're moving in together, and we might have a third.

Sometimes it sucks to have such a stereotypically gay friend

[Himu]

Uhh don't do this.

Anyways, New Haven and the Yale campus was beautiful. Gonna staycation the rest of the day and prolly visit NYC tomorrow.

[Beezy]

When are you going back home?

[Himu]

Driving back on Monday.

[Raban]

Care to elaborate?

[Himu]

If you want to pay rent up to 2-3k a month, right out of high school with no college degree go right ahead.

[Raban]

Where do you think I wanna live, in Union Square? There are places in Manhattan that are in the 1k area, split between two/three people, doesn't sound like a huge problem. If it's too much for me to handle I'll bail out to another borough, mother-fucker won't have anybody to blame but himself.

It makes no difference to me, but unfortunately for the moment I'm tied at the ankle to this guy.

[brawndolicious]

what are you going to do in NY startselect?  Going to school there?

[Raban]

what are you going to do in NY startselect?  Going to school there?

Eventually, yes. Work first, then school.

[Eric P]

oh god

[Raban]

Oh god what? What is it with 20 somethings and that unbearable superiority complex? Am I doing something stupid? Do you feel I am blindly making my life decisions? Why do older people always look at the younger with silent judgement?

I'm not quite sure that's what's going on here, but it has in the past and frankly I'm sick of being judged by people who aren't even satisfied with their own, sad lives. And this post is probably getting lumped in with the rest of mine as "typical adolescent shit" by anybody who cares to read it. For the record I'm usually apathetic towards this shit but I just want some kind of answer lacking the unhelpful sarcasm and irony.

not "oh god you're fucking stupid"

Most people fresh out of highschool aren't so sure what they want to be, so having free time and work to figure it out is no big deal.  The problem only comes in when you stay in that waiting period too long, get too comfortable and then have that "ohwait my life sucks" moment. It is not really a progression, but one life ending and then hitting reboot.

[Fresh Prince]

Try and find the job first obviously.

In short it will be a good experience, having a stereotypical gay friend with all sorts of wacky hijinks you'll the realise at the age of say 27 you 'wasted' a lot of money living this lifestyle and then depending on you economic circumstances move to the outer city\suburbs where you want to settle down with you gf, buy a house and talk about replacing the carpet with timbre floors.

I'm fully aware of that and I have a strong desire to be a well-educated adult, however I don't feel prepared for college just yet.

Well duh.

Damn, the Jay Elecetronica show is on Tuesday. Oh well.

Beezy do you ever go to Battlefield Arcadia?

Also can we kick it when I'm in NY?

[Himu]

Gathering pics from my trip to New Haven and what I saw of the Yale campus. Unfortunately, I don't have much as the people I'm with don't really absorb or soak in new places and we were in a rush to get to the "luncheon" after the graduation ceromony. Why we were in a rush I don't know, but almost all of my pictures were taken on the (albeit extremely short) walk through New Haven and the Yale campus.

It's really beautiful.

If these people impede on my journey through the greatest city in the world I'll be mad. I've wanted to visit NYC my whole life and I won't let anyone else ruin it.

It reminds me of the Radiohead song The Tourist.

[Barry Egan]

That's cool Himu, I was just in New Haven the other day on my way back from Halifax.  Did you get a chance to drop by Louis' Lunch?

[Himu]

No. We went to a place called...fuck, I forgot, but I got pics of the food. I didn't know about Louis' Lunch. I'm going to drag the others to go with me there tonight for the historical value alone.

[Barry Egan]

Don't forget the potato salad, it's unreal.

Life failure imminent...

I dunno what that is and sure.

Success/failure are subjective aren't they? As long as I'm happy, I've succeeded in life. Aim your judgement elsewhere

It's a Street Fighter competition held every month somewhere in Brooklyn, most of the streams from FADC are of BA.

[Fresh Prince]

Youf of today- can't tell them nothing.

[Beezy]

I'm not good enough to enter any SF competitions.

[Raban]

I'm not good enough to enter any SF competitions.

Neither am I, but it'd be fun to go.

Youf of today- can't tell them nothing.

I can't really do anything to prevent failure in life and live by my rules at the same time The best I can do is anticipate hardship, handle it with a cool head and learn from it so I don't repeat the mistake(s). All easier said than done, but I have only myself to let down if I royally fuck up.

[Fresh Prince]

Pretty much my philosophy. I  just remind myself it's not always me against the world.

[Ichirou]

I feel sorry for startselect's parents, since they're going to have to bail him out when he's thirty and realizes he may have made a tiny huge mistake.

[Himu]

I wish these were Kosma or BlueTsu quality Unfortunately I'm not as good a photographer as those guys.

Yale campus









Shit I just took because they're cute/interesting








Food Review



Name: Restaurant whose name no one can remember:
Meal: Western Omelette
How was it?: Alright, I regret getting it though, as everything everyone got looked 9999x better. IHOP makes a better omelette but the potatoes owned. The toasted rye bread I ordered kinda sucked. There was hardly any butter on it. The Sumatra French Roast Coffee (funny how I remember the coffee but not the name of the place?) was pretty good. Extremely bitter, though. Funny; over the past few days at all the hotels we've stayed at, their coffee is so delicious black that I never bothered to put any cream in.
Rating *** out of ***** better than Pan's Labyrinth


Unfortunately this is the bulk of what I saw. Or rather, what I took photos of and actually turned out well. I'd like to devote some time just exploring the place and taking photos but honestly I'd rather just head to NYC instead. 

[Ichirou]

Why are there no pics of you?

[Himu]

Why would I want to take pics of myself when I can take pics of places I've never been? Plus, all pics of me are group shots and I'm not going to post people I know personally on EB.

[Raban]

I feel sorry for startselect's parents, since they're going to have to bail him out when he's thirty and realizes he may have made a tiny huge mistake.

My dad is bankrupt, I won't have the luxury of getting bailed out. I'm afraid its the streets for me if I screw this up.

Pretty much my philosophy. I  just remind myself it's not always me against the world.

I am thankful to have friends that remind me of just that.

[Junpei the Tracer!]

It's kinda lame but I've lived in New York my entire life but I've only been to Manhattan like 4 or 5 times. :/ You guys better explore the fuck outta the city.
