What do you like? Sports? Art? Clubs? Coffee Houses?

8/25/2011 1:43:29 PM

You can always head to the beach for the weekend. As a matter of fact, I hear it's going to be lovely this weekend

8/25/2011 1:43:36 PM

Go ice skating!

8/25/2011 2:29:05 PM

yes a 26 year old junior... i took some time off of school to go do volunteer work in africa and figure out what i really want to do in my life

8/25/2011 2:30:39 PM

Save your rolled eyes, I wasn't being judgmental.

That's cool. State is fun. Enjoy...

8/25/2011 2:32:48 PM

sorry to jump to conclusions, but this is tww

8/25/2011 2:34:29 PM

8/25/2011 2:37:40 PM

the level of kindness in this thread is astounding

TDUB's getting old

[Edited on August 25, 2011 at 2:46 PM. Reason : age]

8/25/2011 2:45:47 PM

^We so rarely get new users that we don't want to scare anyone off.


(also, I wonder how many PM's she's gotten from creepers telling her they'd be happy to show her around Raleigh)

Yeah TDUB could definitely use some new blood

8/25/2011 2:48:03 PM

i would invite her to hang out with us....


but she was in africa for a while so she might have the AIDS...


i don't need that shit

8/25/2011 2:49:47 PM

[obligatory making out with ___ joke]

8/25/2011 2:51:16 PM

i don't make out with girls....

yuck

8/25/2011 2:52:09 PM

LMAO

8/25/2011 2:52:29 PM

8/25/2011 2:53:05 PM

haha i haven't gotten any creepy pm's and i didn't get aids while in africa... i did get malaria, but i was cured and am very healthy and disease free!

and ps i appreciate the kindness, it's hard enough being the new girl in school, let alone the new girl in the state

Don't skip out on the State Fair in October. I brought my friend from Seattle a couple years ago and he said it was the most amazing thing he's ever seen. He started taking pictures of all the mullets he could see on his phone

8/25/2011 3:07:53 PM

State fair is a MUST.

Also more specifics. do you like bars, dive bars, clubs etc. what are your hobbies. So we can pt. you in the right direction.

8/25/2011 3:09:06 PM

8/25/2011 3:10:40 PM

definitely not a club girl unless its gonna be one of those nights... mostly sports bars and dive bars. i live near the goat so i frequent there on the weekends, but i would like to find an alternative.

8/25/2011 3:10:54 PM

I like Mitch's and used to drink there a lot. Now I go to Mac's since it's closer to where I live (Cary).

8/25/2011 3:12:02 PM

If you were into the outdoorsy stuff in Seattle (which pretty much every friend I have in Seattle is) then be sure to check out Umstead, the greenway, and all of the state parks west of here.

8/25/2011 3:15:27 PM

Ibt turns into a hipster vs mainstream thread

lololololololololol, one of those people

8/25/2011 3:54:07 PM

Hey now, if you live close to the Goat and don't know any better, you can't really fault her

8/25/2011 3:54:52 PM

if you want a chill place in your area to hang out and drink then I would say bada or ruckus in mission valley, both are a step up from the goat with less homeless people and prostitutes

8/25/2011 3:55:25 PM

i don't know any better!! i googled the closest bar to my house and got the goat. i went to ruckus once, but it was right before closing so i wasn't there very long
