I would eat at about a 500 calorie surplus keeping it clean. Your not going to bulk on a deficit. Lean cuts will help keep you from putting on fat while adding muscle. Keep in mind you'll never pack on as much size as someone eating 1000 calories over but your make some gain and not put on any...
Use protein shakes wisely. There great after a workout to get protein in your system quick and there easy to take anywhere but they should never be your main source of protein.
All this talk about water reminds me that I always. Boost my calorie/ protein in take during a bulk by increasing my milk and shake intake. I'll even do a smoothie with either soy or Pea protein. Get your liquids and calories/protein.

For me a key to getting the calories I need for a serious bulk is getting started early. I can eat none stop after 7 o'clock but i don't have a appetite first thing in the morning. So I have to make my self eat then my appetite takes off for the rest of the day.
