Re: Off Topic 2013

Saw on espn this morning that the Toomer's Corner Oaks at Auburn are coming down this spring and posted the link to the article about it in the Tommer's Oaks thread in the CFB forum at 11:52 this morning. Still no replies. I thought the Auburn and Bama fans would be all over that.

It's Saturday though, discussion is usually slow. Still kinda surprising

Not sure if you can tell which one the parents of the ladyfriend suggested, so I’ll point it out: The German Boxer names. Clever bunch, those two.

Re: Off Topic 2013

Depends.

What is your budget? Do you have a job lineup? If so then where?

There are some really nice places actually downtown, but might be out of your price range. 55 West, Solaire at the Plaza, Aspire Apartments are all around the Thornton park area, but a little closer to downtown. Very nice, area. Clean and safe and lots of nightlife with in very reasonable walking distance.

Personally, with traffic, and I-4 being a mess, I would stay directly out of downtown. At least I did. I lived in Heathrow, which was about 15 minutes north of Colonial Drive which is the start of Downtown. You would find apartments in a better price range in that area.

College Park is a decent area with a younger demographic. I would stay away from University Park though.

The thing about downtown Orlando is that the Traffic is worse than Miami. (I'm speaking from personal experience from living in both cities.) I-4 is usually bump-to-bumper from about 6am to 9pm. A drive that would normally take you 20 mins, takes about 1hr during 6am-9pm.
if your going to be working around the Disney area, I'd probably suggest looking around the St. Cloud/ Kissimmee area. $1,300 would get you a really nice place in that area and your commute to work would be shorter aswell. Downtown Orlando's nightlife really isnt that great, most people drive to Ybor City(Tampa Area) to go "clubbing".

For the Orlando thing I can't say much other then the traffic downtown is awful, I'm only really familiar with the Disney area

Unless Orlando has done a 180 since I lived in Florida, other then the traffic being terrible which was already mentioned, the crime is pretty bad too.

Hmm. Thanks for the input, guys.

I guess the reason I was thinking about Downtown is that I don't want to feel like I'm isolated with not many options for restaurants, bars, shops, activities, etc. right nearby.

When I was in Kansas City, I lived near a planned area modeled like a downtown called Zona Rosa (http://www.zonarosa.com/) that had shops, restaurants, a couple bars, etc.

Is there any sort of place like that that's about 30 minute drive or less from the ESPN Complex? If so, that kind of place would work too, especially if traffic from Downtown to ESPN is as bad as you guys say.

Honestly, I just don't want to feel isolated, especially as if I do make the move it would be alone without any connections in the area.

Somedays I wish my fiancé wasn't a nurse. Don't get me wrong, it'll pay off big time when I'm older and have health problems, but I don't know if I can handle all the gross stories. It's too much man.

Trust me, I know the feeling. She's on 3 12-hour (7p-7a) shifts scheduled, but she normally ends up picking up at least 2 other days of OT. 60-hour work weeks are quite common for her.

I can't submit that. Max was the stray my mom found in a week long thunderstorm that stood and slept by my crib and was my personal guardian for 12 years of my life, barely letting my parents near me a baby.

Hahahaha archaic laws.

That's why people from Minnesota that lived near the border would drive into Wisconsin on Sundays, actually.
