Singapore Expats

This is probably a stretch, but are there any Loyola University Chicago Alumni out there? Or any Chicago Universities for that matter? If so, would love to grab drinks and get nostalgic. (Class of 2007 here)

Not from Loyola, but not too far away and knew quite a few friends that attended both the high school and University. Graduated from Marquette in 2010. Would grab a drink or several sometime.

Wow small world. I know a few Marquette folks (other than D-Wade). You from IL or WI? here's my email: rawksteadi [at] gmail [dot] com we should meet up this weekend for several drinks.

Michigan State University here (class of 06) but I hail from Chicago. Just moved out here for a few months but will return to US to get my belongings in June to move here permanently.

Down to get together at some point if anyone wants to. I'll shoot you an email as well..

University of Minnesota here, but I work(ed) in Milwaukee.

Midwest beer session?

I didn't go to LUC, but had a few friends that did, and used to hang around on the beach there a LOT about 10 years ago

got friends went there back in Chicago,though i didnt study there.

Ohio State grad, class of '08. Been here for about 8 months now and would love to grab a drink with some fellow Midwesterners.

would be awesome if you're into indie music like me.

I can't speak for the others, but I listen to it almost exclusively. What specifically are you into?

Haha, what is Laneway? I haven't really heard of any indie bands coming to Singapore (outside of The National in November and Los Campesinos last month). Any future events I should know about or places I should go to find out about them? Or any suggestions for good bars that play indie music?
