I have never wanted to live in California. Then I started to come around to the idea of living in SanFran. I'm trying to be open minded about LA but I can't picture myself there. At all. Ever. As Alvie Singer (Woody Allen, Annie Hall) once said “I don’t want to move to a city where the only cultural advantage is being able to make a right turn on a red light”. Great role model, right? And you can also turn on a red light in Chicago. So I guess this would be more appropriate if I was debating leaving New York.
This is what I think of when I think about LA:
A culture utterly obsessed with celebrity and media attention and plastic surgery.
And gangs and drugs (because obviously I would live n the hood)
I'm sure normal people live in LA too. I wish I could think of things like this instead:
Sitting in a park while Joseph Gordon Levitt talks to me about architecture and how much he loves me. Sigh.
