10 Things the East Coast Has Taught Me
- Coat hoods are seriously underrated. I remember not wearing one in high school because it wasn't cool. What a dummy.
- Cars are seriously overrated. Public transportation can be the shizzz.
- Big city people don't always live up to their stereotypes - just as Utahns don't always.
- Sometimes big city people totally do live up to their stereotypes. And sometimes I still say 'melk' instead of 'milk.'
- From the awesome energy and endless activity of NYC to the quaintness of New England waterfront towns to the character and history of Boston - never a dull moment.
- I took having a mountainous landscape for granted.
- Humidity = worst invention ever. And the fact that it makes summer and winter more miserable.
- Autumn is my new favorite season.
- New Yorkers and Bostonians are not being snobbish - their pizza really is 10000x better.
- Their pizza gives me heartburn but "the rewards for those who persevere far exceed the pain that must precede the victory."
