Driving to Orlando tomorrow, I got accepted into a PHD program down there!
Who's from the area? I heard LA Fitness was the place to train! Any recommendations?

I fucking love Florida, and I can see myself living there someday.
Long Boat Key is the place to be! :)

Siesta Key

I can't even imagine how nice it would be to live within miles of that... :) :) :)
I don't remember the water being that clear though... ;D

Florida is fun! Great beaches and boating (if you are into that) and low cost of living. Unfortunately, the schools in FL are not very good . . . as compared to New England for example. Getting a degree in FL often means staying in FL for your career—which is fine if that is what you plan to do.
My vacation/retirement home is in FL. 8)

Chose wisely. Most of Florida won't exist by the year 2012. "They" are going to be getting rid of many people who collect social security ;)

no clue on florida...been to miami a couple times and it seems weird ghetto/affluent areas all intertwined...
congrats on the phd program ache make getbig proud man

I'm in SW Florida - Estero/Naples.
I lived in Sarasota right off Siesta Key for almost 2 years... it's beautiful.
I spent last weekend in the FL Keys (Islamorada)... it was even better.
I have vacationed in Orlando quite a few times, it's nice.
The everglades might be my favorite spot - just miles of swamp and lots of critters.
I've lived in a few cities here, been to others. Just like anywhere else, the bigger cities (and the smaller ones too) can be pretty ghetto. But the outlying areas as nice. Really depends where you are in Orlando and what you like to do.

i dont know key west... the wifey went there a few years back and from the pics, it was a little trashy... mighta just been where she went tho, I dunno.
The keys are the islands that stretch from miami/homestead down to key west. I stayed at islamorada, kinda in the middle. It was beautiful, way nicer than siesta key, where I used to go every weekend.
that bora bora place sure looks nice!

Florida. My sister lives there.

Live in south Florida (Palm Beach Gardens) love it! ...been to Orlando (wasn't impressed to "touristy")
imo best parts of Florida are The Keys and South Florida (Boca Raton,Juno Beach,Jupiter,Palm Beach Gardens,Delray Beach etc) im close to West Palm Beach but far enough away to enjoy the seclusion and beaches/boating (peanut island) etc
always something fun to do!
-
I got accepted into the University of Central Florida....
PHD in Industrial Engineering
I'm still waiting to hear from University of Miami... But I think I'm still gonna go with UCF unless Miami gives me an awesome scholarship!
Probably just going to stay there 2-3 years just to be done with the PHD, I work for a family business so its all good in regards to work!
-
Love Florida.

You let your wife go to the keys alone? What are you guys, some kind of swingers or something?

Anyone over the age of 30 living in south beach and not making a min/of 6 figures is either retarded or a total unconscious human being. Your not living the lifestyle bro. The lifestyle is laughing at living you ::)
Might I suggest packing it all up and moving to Venice Beach where you would fit in with the rest of the bums. Hell you could live in a van outside Golds and nobody would blink an eye. Stop trying to take the souls of females and just be the bum you are. There's no shame in that as long as you don't hurt another soul ;)

hahahahaahah nah that was like 12 years ago that she went.

And you probably have a post here saying that she went 12 YEARS AGO :D And since when is "a few years back" 12 years?

You left GW for UCF? ???
:'(
Yeah when you see it written like that it sounds odd lol... But...
I got BOTH my undergrad AND Masters from GW... It was time for a change. UCF was a good choice because I know a lot of professors down there and our research will match up. There are a lot of reasons I'm choosing UCF, even if it looks sorta odd, but its for the best!
I already have a job as an executive and have no plans of leaving it, lets just think of the PHD as the icing on the cake, and more money down the line! ;D

There a lot of bodyparts in the Everglade Swamps. A known mobster cemetery. I wouldnt advise swimming there.

I lived in Port St. Lucie for 4 years back in the early/mid nineties............stil l sorry to this day that I moved back up north.
Good luck bro,you`ll love it.

Are you nuts???? UCF over UM is not a wise choice. Please see below:
Orlando is like a third world country compared to Coral Gables.
UCF Football is like watching the special olympics............At Miami you get to watch the most skilled felons on turf.
UM is a private school with great facilities (gym, intramural fields, research facilities, etc).
UM has lots of rich Jew broads...........w/ low self esteem.
Mickey, Minnie & Daffy < Lebron, DWade, Bosh.
It's all about The U

After 13 yrs there, I moved out and moved back to the Northeast
I lived in Miami, Tallahassee and Tampa.
Weather - I missed the 4 seasons......2 seasons in Fl just doesn't cut it
School systems stink (if you have kids) ranked 48 out 50 states
#2 worst housing market behind Cali........
Everytime you hear about abduction, pediphilia etc...9/10 times it comes out of Florida
I hated waking up every morning and having to feed the Gators
Depending on where I was, I felt my IQ dropping by the minute...
Only positive....no state tax!
Shit what am I saying...I'm moving back

UCF is a good school in Orlando. the closest beach to you will be daytona beach, 40 minutes. I love it there back then. you can drive on the beach. the other beach is CoCo beach which is an Hour from Orlando. coco beach is known for it's great surf. watch out for the bull sharks...hahahahaah

This place is bad for sex offenders and i seen one kid that stood outside with his dog for over a hour. I remember eating and chatting with friends and we ended up calling the cops and they forgot their son was outside and it was like 95 degrees. I mean who in the hell leaves their young kid outside while eating inside.

Well I'm not really worried about being sexually assaulted lol... and like I said its only for a few years, I don't have kids so its not an issue

Man all this talk about Florida makes me want to get there right now. My daughter told me her and a couple friends are planning a trip to Disney World in Orlando for next summer to take all the kids. I think I may tag along. I doubt (in fact know) I won't have as fun a time as I did years ago but I am hoping it will still be fun. Ft. Lauderdale was the funniest. Back then they had the Candy Store which had a wet t-shirt contest every night for $500. I judged many of those. They had that belly-flop contest every year too. It was a blast. Shooters and Chrome Parrot and City Limits were awesome. Had a party on a really nice yacht called Monkey Business. We pulled up to Shooters and they valet park your yacht for you. I thought that was cool. Had a cigarette boat at my disposal too. It was called the Green Monster (or Machine). Had a blast in that thing. The weather is awesome too. I really love Florida.

On the plus side, housing and real estate is becoming dirt cheap. More than 50% of homeowners in Florida are underwater on their mortgages.

I was born and raised in north east Florida. Little area a bit north of Jacksonville but right on the border of Georgia. Been all over the world and couldn't wait to get back. Love this place.
