i use to live in the Westwood section of L.A. back in '99..
..then i moved over to Venice in 2000..
...then i got the hell outta' there 6 months later.
"Hell.A." does have some good points to it: the weather, the beaches.
..but everything else about it is bad: the air, the attitude, the people, the club scene, the people, the fact that you need a car to get ANYWHERE around there, the people, the cops, the horrid gang violence, the people....
....did i mention the people??
..everything seems to be based on status, there.
you HAVE to have a car...or some kind of high materialistic possession in order to be recognized out there.
..& i find that greatly disgusting.
i've never seen so many cell phones in my LIFE, 'till i moved out there.
...i'll end it like this: some will like L.A., some will love L.A....
...then there are those - like me - who loathe L.A..
...OH, SWEET JESUS, TAKE ME BACK TO BROOKLYN!!!!!!
...& look at the bitch NOW!
