hahahaha! I live in Hawai'i and you're totally right about iceheads. I work in Kalihi, which is icehead central and I work for welfare/food stamps which has the iceheads come into my building. My coworker actually saw a guy lighting his pipe on the way to the coffee shop one day (day, not night!).

But you know what? I wouldn't trade it for the world. I grew up here and it's so homey (not the icehead part, the place where I live in Aiea) and it's just so easy for me to do my thing and not worry about anything. I think because I was born and grew up here that I relate better here than little teaser. I have to admit though-- I did live on the mainland for awhile and it drove me bonkers. My BF on the other hand, is comfortable anywhere (he's lived in San Jose, Philly, Taiwan-- military brat).

If I had to pick one of the continental, I'd go with San Fran. I like the hustle and bustle of the place and there's druggies there too (woo, did I see some when I went clubbing!!), so I'll have lots of work

It's only redeeming quality- amazing shopping and architecture like you wouldn't even believe. Drawbacks- 9% tax on MAC (well, and everything else too)! Sad thing is, I'm a midwestern Chicago girl through and through. The thought of living somewhere else frightens me, haha. I need the dirt and noise and gross a@$ black snow, or else it's not home! And- if I went anywhere else, people would make fun of me for my accent! I say melk! I'm moving to Taos, NM.

Oh my god! I completely disagree! I think Chicago is beautiful. The lakeshore, the skyline, the architechture, the neighboorhoods. I love it. I grew up in Chicago, moved and now I'm back. I appreciate it more now than ever.

Austin, TX. Definitely. I'm in love with that city, I'm a Texas girl. I'll live there eventually!

I'm definatley a Florida girl.. I can't imagine leaving here.. Though I would like to get out of Palm Beach.. I'm moving to Ft Lauderdale in September, but if I had the funds I'd live on South Beach.

California, in the Santa Barbara area i just think its so pretty their and Hawaii

 

[NaturallyME]

I LOVE FLORIDA and its practically PARADISE

i live not even 10 mins from the beach.... hurricanes are ridiculous here i must admit but I wouldnt trade it for anything
I love in the panhandle and I would love to live farther south maybe orlando, ft lauderdale, MIAMI= TOO EXPENSIVE
I love ATL too but tooo much goin on too fast for me
Been to Chicage but it was X mas time so it probably seemed more glamorous
I would LOVE to visit NYC maybe after I graduate

I guess the grass is always greener. This is where I live and I hate it.people here are RUDE. Santa Barbara is the WORST , people honking at you all the time, Its like being in the city of L.A.

TX is overrated. I <3 San Diego!!!

I am born and raised from the city of Chicago. I didnt realize how awesome it was until I moved to Houston. Houston SUCKS!!! Its so hot, humid, scary highway drivers, no good shops (rice village doesnt cut it really)...I could do on and on. BUT i try to make the best of it because I am here for my Fiance's job at NASA and want to stay positive. lol
