5 Musts On A Syracuse Bucket List

You are what you orange.

5 Musts On A Syracuse Bucket List

It’s that time again, orange nation. As the class of 2017 comes back to the hill, priorities have to be put in place. We’d like to say we have done it all, but honestly, there are some things that can only be left for senior year. What will be on your bucket list? Here’s a snap shot of mine for your inspiration and pure entertainment

1. Be the first to Chuck’s and the last to leave.

Oh, Hungry Chuck’s. Who are you? Why are you always hungry? These are the questions that haunt me. By getting to Chuck’s first on any given night, but more likely Thursday thru Saturday night, maybe these questions will be answered. Honestly, I can’t think of a better way to spend a night than grabbing the least sticky booth, having a round of Sea Breeze and enjoy some fried mac n’ cheese with my best friends. You’ll find me in that booth when Chuck’s opens and I won’t leave until it closes.

2. Climb the water tower.

If you haven’t already, then you need to get this one done. Climbing the water tower is like a right of passage at Syracuse. Once you have been up there, you will never be the same. Actually, you might be the same, but you will take the one picture that will get you the most likes on Instagram and Facebook. The ladder might not be there anymore, but we’re orange nation. Nothing can stop us.

3. Eat the Infamous James Brownie at Funk 'n Waffles.

The James Brownie. Truly the crowning achievement for anyone at Syracuse is to eat this entire brownie waffle with vanilla ice cream, chocolate sauce and whipped cream. I plan on fasting for two and a half days to build enough hunger for this colossal waffle.

4. Make the campus Snapchat Story.

This may be a tough one, orange nation. Syracuse celebrities have been born because of our campus snap story. Do you have what it takes? My advice: either become really good friends with someone who makes it regularly or just be as original and creative as you can. The first is probably your best choice.

5. Take Otto to formal.

I am convinced there is no better date than the orange himself, Otto. Who wouldn’t want to take Otto to formal? I’m not even talking about the guy in the suit. If you can actually get Otto, in full SU regalia to come to you formal, then you my friend don’t need to complete the rest of the bucket list; you have won the Syracuse experience.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
