A Tale of Two Cities

It's no surprise that if you're in you're a recent college grad, in your mid twenties, or simply just have a dream, you usually migrate to either one of two cities: New York or Los Angeles. Both cities are amazing in their own right - Los Angeles being the entertainment capital, and New York, well, pretty much being the capital of basically everything. But no matter what your lifestyle or dream may be, you could most probably find solace in either of these diverse cities.

Like so many fair-weather fans before me, I gave in. I did the worst thing a New Yorker could do. I moved to Los Angeles. They city of dreams. The city of narcissism. But why, you ask? Well, I, like everybody else here in the city of dreams, believe that I will make it. And in the process, I can't help but take notice of the vast differences between the two...

In Los Angeles, people...

are always so busy, yet nobody works

move to LA with nothing, and gain everything. Or so they think!

are eternal optimists and believe that they are the next big thing

can be introduced to you 100 times and still cannot remember your name

wear different colors.

try to be original.

are only friends with you if you are successful

are afraid of bad weather.

go to rehab

are self absorbed

think that they are on Entourage

In New York, people...

work, yet still have free time.

move to NYC with their parents money

are pessimistic and always negative

always wear black

ARE original.

are only friends with you if you are cool

may or may not be nice, but they are real, and most likely you could find a friend or two

think that the worst is always about to happen.

enjoy cloudy, rainy days.

Have ADD

think they are on Sex And The City
