You Know You're From Westchester When...
You go to a Dave Matthews Band concert and end up running into people you know from your school.
Half the people in your school mysteriously develop inner-Queens accents during 7th and 8th grade.
Starbucks is a regular stop for you.
You say Abercrombie & Fitch makes you want to puke, yet you sport at least one outfit from the store each week
NYU is your top choice for college.
If you go to Catholic school, you know everyone at all the Catholic schools in Westchester.
If you go to public school you still manage to know everyone at all the Catholic schools in Westchester.
Below 1400 is a "so-so" SAT score
You claim to hate your school, but you go to all the dances and play at least one varsity sport anyway.
Even though your best friend lives a stone's throw away, you have most of your conversations with him/her on AOL or AIM.
You know you have to act tough when going to The Galleria, or else you might get shot.
You know you have to act sophisticated when you go to The Westchester, or else you'll get kicked out.
Your summer vacation is most likely one of the following: LBI, Cape May, Wildwood, Seaside Heights, or, more simply "The Jersey Shore."
You know someone who knows the girl who starred in "The Blair Witch Project."
Your dad works in an office and wears a suit and tie to work every day.
Your mom either works part-time or volunteers, but whatever she does, it's enough to hold a 24-hour a day guilt-trip over you.
If you don't drive, the Metro North train is your best friend, assuming, of course, you're able to avoid the ticket-collector.
A trip into NYC for a day is your idea of "getting away from it all."
It pisses you off that your friends from the Bronx call this area "upstate New York."
You've met Vanessa Williams at least once.
You complain that the Jefferson Valley Mall is trash, but you find yourself hanging out there every weekend anyway.
You think anyone who lives south of New Jersey is a hick.
Everyone winds up spending Spring Break in the Hamptons.
The students in your school drive nicer cars than the teachers.
Your sixteenth birthday present: Jeep, or your mom's old BMW
Your mother went to a great college, and now does nothing
You say that you are "just outside the city" regardless of where you live
Unlike every other area in the New York Metro area, you believe that people from Westchester, "really don't have accents."
Somebody had to teach you to do your laundry when you went away to college
You consider anything North of White Plains, "Upstate"
Your family belongs to a health club, a golf club, and/or a beach club
You actually get these jokes and pass them on to other friends from Westchester.
