In a way, it's taken me 25 years to acknowledge that I am from the West Coast. I was always sort of pretending I was bicoastal or that I really belonged on the East Coast.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If only I'd stayed on the West Coast, I might have made something of myself.
I was born and raised in Los Angeles. I split my time between the West Coast and the East.
I was born in Riverside and spent my whole growing-up years in Florence, a little township on the Delaware River. I tell people that I'm from the West Coast of New Jersey.
Yes, I guess I am bi-coastal.
I didn't grow up in one place, so I never had a certain mentality. I have some aspects of growing up in Texas, but I also have a lot of East Coast family. I would have loved to grow up on the East Coast.
I did all of California from north to south. I did Florida from north to south. I went to the Midwest. I spent time discovering the culture because I thought I was going to stay in America for only two years. Then I decided to come to New York.
I'm totally an East Coast person, energetic and sarcastic. I'm not a nice L.A. person.
I went to college in Vermont, and then stayed in the East Coast.
I was born in New York and raised in South Florida, so I'm an East Coast girl.
I'm so much more of an East Coast girl than a West Coast girl.
