My girlfriend is a California native. O.C., even! She'd never lived outside the state for any great length of time till just recently. She sure is digging the lack of traffic, pollution and conceited people here on the east coast. Hey yo, I admire your gumption and willingness to travel, but you might want to do just that -- travel (extensively) -- before you move there. There are so many fun places to live, I say!

haha People keep telling me to move to Newport Beach. And they don't understand why I laugh.

Newport Beach, the beach itself, is very pretty. The TOWN, on the other hand, man, who would bother? That's where Dennis Rodman lives and hosts his big, famous, shallow parties. The whole scene seems so ugly, H, there's just so much gunk under the glitter. Do you do a lot of coke? Because people in Newport Beach do a lot of coke.

that coke habit I don't have heathersglitter August 24 2005, 19:39:13 UTC
apparently it'll be easy to start a coke habit as soon as I transport myself to any zip code beginning with a 9. then apparently if i transport myself to dallas, i could pick up a coke habit pretty easily, as well. i should mention i'm not so into the celebrities and also bullshit. i'm trying to be extremely practical in the face of this wholly impractical decision.

Word, stay away from the coke! I don't do it either, and I say life is better without it. If you're looking to make an impractical decision practically, though, why consider California? If you're in a position to move, you're at liberty to go wherever you like, right? Were I you, I'd be looking into coastal opps that aren't CA. East! North! Antarctica!

I have several friends also looking to move to California. I've been to NYC and really did not like it. So I'm going to visit LA and see what's what. If I hate it, then I'll try and work something out, but for my creative 'dreams,' such as they are, the fact that I'm even considering an LA move is a big step-up from my usual self-defeatism.
