sticboy says:

where you from? where are you now? what's it like?

Los Angeles/Pasadena:
time moves too fast, weather is perfect, diverse food, nasty traffic. superficial.

currently getting raped at a design school in pasadena... i've met a lot of great people from all over the world here, each come from a world i can barely imagine... I havn't really done much traveling in my life time, mainly up and down the west coast... seattle, sf, vancouver, tj ...

got any rad photos from where you're at? special foods? colors? trends? how are the women?(men?) post'em here!

At work (www.argentnetworks.com) in Auckland, New Zealand. It's a beautiful autumn day... the snowboarding season will soon be upon us and every weekend will then be spent riding down a volcano, wahey!

Heyy, Pasadena, my cousin's there :)

Jakarta, Indonesia / Melbourne, Australia / meh, it's okay.

Jakarta: if it's not hot and humid, its hot and humid and raining.
Melbourne: experience four seasons in one friggin day

just graduated design a few weeks ago, still having a mini-holiday before forcing myself to get a job back home. I like the Chinese food in Melbourne's Chinatown rather than the actual Chinese food in China.

Aphaits... Melbourne sounds like Auckland. Though when I was there I just remember humidity, flies, and a lovely city.

I've lived a few different places in Canada and the US, but now I call Toronto home. According to a new study, it's the 15th best city to live in. Scroll to the bottom of that page for the full listing if you want to find your city...

I was born in New Mexico, and my parents moved us to Michigan before I turned two. I lived the rest of my life in West Michigan, in several towns. Currently, I'm in Southwest Michigan @ Western Michigan University. This town is wild, to say the least. While it can't claim the total craziness of a town with a larger college in it, the 35k students and 60/40 female-male ratio make things interesting enough for me.

I really don't care if I take 8 more years to get through college. As some swift individual once said, youth is wasted on the young, and knowledge is wasted on the old. The whole 'best years of our lives' shit is arbitrary. Everyone enjoys different sections of their lives differently.

I doubt I'll ever go very far from here, but thats only if things get no worse than they already are in this country. Of course, they will, so a country with fewer rules and intrusiveness is probably in my future. Vancouver and Holland come to mind.

i'm from an island in the ocean. i currently live on a hill in seattle and work near the waterfront. it is currently typical spring weather for the region: hailed last night then rained, then was sunny and cloudy today, but is now raining off and on again. perfect weather for a run around the park.

In west Philadelphia born and raised
On the playground was where I spent most of my days
Chillin' out maxin' relaxin' all cool
And all shootin some b-ball outside of the school

Still live in Philly, primarily.

Spent a lot of summers at the beach in Ocean City, MD.

I'm usually out in LA for about a month out of the year.

bombay (born) --> fort worth, tx (now)

it's hot, like bombay, but dry heat is not so bad (except the 2 weeks of straight 100+ degree days in the summer).

i go to medical school here (tcom), and my days are spent reading about diseases i will probably never see in clinic.

oh, and i am approximately 2.3 billion dollars in debt. =/

I was born in the mighty state of Wisconsin and there I did reside until I moved elsewhere and now I'm back again, I don't imagine I'll be going anywhere new for a while and Wisconsin is pretty great, although the winters can get pretty long. In fact the other day I left the house and it started coming down freezing rain pretty hard so whistled for a cab and when it came near The license plate said fresh and it had dice in the mirror If anything I can say this cab is rare But I thought 'Now forget it' - 'Yo homes to Bel Air' I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 And I yelled to the cabbie 'Yo homes smell ya later' I looked at my kingdom I was finally there To sit on my throne as the Prince of Bel Air.

stic: i've only taken a couple drafting and architecture classes -- none that are specifically for design. thing is, i work full-time, so it's hard to find classes at night. and also hard to find the energy to wanna do anything after a day at work. which is why i go home and drown inside photoshop all the time. :)

I'm originally from the Maine. I now go to school in Rochester. I never really appreciated how much I actually liked the space and outdoors until I lived in Rochester for a few years. Definitely a completely different scene.

Rochester is a small city, but has it's share of quiet, interesting places that make it worth spending some time in.

Still prefer the Maine outdoors a bit more however. I've should be uploading a bunch of pics from Acadia Nat'l Park to my flickr pretty soon. It really is a beautiful place...

I'm born and raised in Georgia, and by and large, it's rather boring. It picks up a bit during Masters week, but Augusta is far from interesting 51 weeks of the year. It's hot almost all the time; hit 85 today, with humidity near 80%, before the rain came in. The winters, if you can even call them that, are mostly warm and never conductive to snow. In fact, I haven't so much as seen snow in six years.

I'm in college, right now ... although that's kind of misleading because I rarely actually attend.

As for the women, well, we certainly manage ... and manage well :)
