I never knew how small L.A. was until I started to work here.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I work in L.A. from time to time.
There's so much nonsense tossed around about L.A. and how horrible it is and 'don't go out there' and all that stuff. So I went out to L.A. and I was pleasantly surprised.
L.A. is great, but it's a completely different beast. I go back to Minnesota, and I borrow a bike from my neighbor and go around Lake Harriet saying 'Hi' to people. Some of that is missing in L.A.
L.A. is my office. I come here for work and work only.
I live in L.A. and love L.A., and you couldn't drag me out of there kicking and screaming.
I never seem to leave L.A., though I left L.A.
L.A. is such a big city, and there's so much going on. I mean, you know you're in L.A. when you can just hear sirens all the time.
For a foreigner, L.A. is such a big, wonderful and weird place that, until you find your niche, you feel a little bit discombobulated.
L.A. is very special to me, so far away from my world on the East Coast, Europe, Asia. It's a bit of an island for me - less intense, less busy; because of time difference and location, it has a calming effect. At least it used to be all that.
I live in L.A., I grew up here, it's not that crazy for me because it's L.A., you know?
