I wasn’t born here, but I was raised here & I used to resent that about my upbringing. I didn’t understand why I had to be raised away from my culture in a place that only made me feel alien but now that I’m older I’m finally beginning to appreciate it.
I was raised here but I’m seeing this city in a way that I never have before. It’s so serene & quaint. I love how many local coffee shops we have & how rich we are in grass & trees. I love that my identity makes me unique, & it’s refreshing to meet other people like me in this southern, suburban city. It’s lovely here.

i was born here but haven’t lived here since i was a few months, before moving back for university. i’ve always wanted to live in an urban area with a lot of young, college aged people, and this is the perfect place for that. there are always festivals, thrift pop ups, art gallery openings, historical buildings and events to go to which i love. i enjoy meeting strange people who are part of various scenes, going to the goth club and spending time with my interesting friends. the public transportation is also great, since i don’t have a car and don’t plan on getting one either.
there is however a very large homeless issue that has been going on for years, and a housing crisis, and even my favourite cheap sandwich place has had to jack up their prices, but what can you do.
i plan on staying here for university and possibly moving away for post-grad, but this place will hold a very special place in my heart forever

This might not be possible for everything! But when I moved from a small town to an even smaller town for college instead of going to the big city school I’d wanted to, I was really disappointed and sad for the first few months. But then I realized we had some live music every so often and going out to the bars with friends scratched a similar itch to going to a city club without being overwhelming for me. Of course it’s not quite the same, but it’s something! I’m happier in a city now, but I do find myself missing my college town often. I think it was a blend of appreciating what I could get in that town that‘s harder to find in a city (like my friends being guaranteed to be close to me and not 3 neighborhoods away), and finding what I could that can somewhat compare to city stuff, that made most of my time there enjoyable :)

i don’t watch movies often. but when i do, its usually horror or a romance movie of some sort. something about the way the movie gets stuck in my head after tickling my amygdala.
movies like “Us” i thoroughly enjoy. Smile was okay. but i need to rewatch it.
I also enjoy watching horror game playthrus
