Haha yeah there's also the other little boroughs outside of Center City like Chestnut Hill (where I was born! :D )

It's ashame though, as much as Center City is awesome the city is under such shit now. It really does need a lot of work and yet the mayor allows the construction of casinos and such shit. :dozey:

The Delaware River can be totally revamped into something much welcoming and beautiful. Build some parks and cute little restaurants. God, the money would be put to better use.

sounds wonderful. Sounds a lot like a tiny town my grandparents used to live in that we'd visit every summer. Had 1 store and only like 15 buildings total.

not much comes up when you type in the town i live in/the town i went to school in in connecticut into google. they're basically just suburban, residential towns with not much besides a lot of trees, a lot of white people, and a lot of quiet. it's cliche new england. and basically everything you need is just 5-15 mins away by car, because all the towns are connected by I84, so that's where the movie theaters and malls and shopping centers are.

anyway, this is the town hall of the town i live in (there's a movie theater inside! see a movie for $2...it's wonderful):
http://pics4.city-data.com/cpicv/vfiles16534.jpg

the main feature of town is this humungo flag pole right in the middle of the road on main street. it causes quite a few accidents:

Hey nice pics Chelsea! :D

My town in NY is kind of boring, by the sound of it similar to Chelsea's: lots of land, lots of trees, etc. Don't get me wrong, it's great, but right now I'm living in Eze-sur-mer in France, near Nice (just for the summer):

http://cache.virtualtourist.com/1311194-Panorama_Eze_July_2002-Eze.jpg

This is a picture of Eze-sur-mer (down on the shore) taken from the ancient Eze Village on top of the mountain (like 1300m up I think). It's not my picture but I have some really similar ones cause we went to this same restaurant (where the picture was taken)!

She divides in two part, the old town and the new town. The constructions are very influenced by Belgium.

I want to live in a city :(

Rural life sucks


I'm pretty content with living in a small town. It's quiet here (not during the week though), there are a few nice restaurants and stuff. When I want some action, cinemas, bars and stuff, I go to the city, which is about 18km from me. I think it's good, 'cause if I lived in a city and I'd like to be quiet for a moment, I'd have nowhere to go.

Yeah. Christina is my sister. I know the London thing in my username is a bit confusing. England is the place I've always wanted to go but have never been to.

It is sad isn't it? Almost seems strange to NOT hear of another shooting on the morning news.

Boston, MA!

(I don't actually live IN Boston; I live 7 miles outside the city, but as you get off my exit on the highway, you can see the skyline of the city!)

Shes the one who got me onto this site! It was sad. I hate hearing about stuff like that, especially when it happens to kids or innocent bystanders caught in the middle.

That being said, what an underrated city! Gotta have Philly pride!! :)

I might finally be able to post pics as well towards the end of the month when my camera problem is sorted. I live in the country now and Holland is really pretty. Sometimes like a doll's house. Or from and old fairy tale.
People ask me why I left France, but my heart is really in both.
