Summer Post #8: Comparisons Part 2

Okay, so now that I've told Washingtonians about Connecticut. Now it's time for me to tell Connecticutians about Washington (really, what the hell do you call someone from Connecticut?)

There's not much to say really. Washington is pretty cool place. but here are some things I thought to tell you:

  • The weather is way more mild here. Well, where I live anyway. It stays pretty comfortable year round. No crazy blizzards, and no blistering heat. but I also miss it a bit.
  • And you hear it rains a lot here, and it does. theres some crazy flooding and stuff that you wouldn't be used to, but as far as storms go, CT rain is way more intense. Like in Wa, it may rain every day for a while, and you may forget what the sun looks like, but in Ct, it rains, and it pours, and the lightning can really freak you out. I prefer the latter, actually.
  • The people, in general, are just...different. In a pretty cool way.
  • The space needle is really not that cool. but the view is nice. I prefer the view from a plane leaving sea-tac though.
  • This state is really big. Anyone in Seymour would take a while to adjust to how you're not related to everyone in the area.
  • The beaches are really rocky.
  • We do have a ton of nice lakes though, and I think I'd rather have a few of them around.
  • (haha. distraction...cute guy on tv...)
  • There's a lot of diversity.
  • oh, and pike place market. pretty cool place.
  • COFFEE. nuff said. but there are little cappuchino huts everywhere. I was afarid of them at first
  • Everyone turns orange near the time that prom is.
  • there are a hell of a lot of trees
  • The scenery is gorgeous. Eastern, Central, and Western WA are just so different.
  • The speed limit on some roads is 70 haha.
  • We have this center left turn lane thing on the road. Its a bit confusing at first, but really useful.
  • Casinos are everywhere. CT is home to the 2 biggest casinos, but we have tons that are just wherever.

I can't really think of much else to say...hmm.

It's hard to really compare them effectively without you being here. Yall need to come out to visit sometime, and you can meet all of my friends. It'd be fun. You can stay in my house. haha.

I GOT MY LICENCE!
