I also have an auto-immune disease. I dont know many people my age who do. Your attitude and drive is inspirational. Enjoy California! I have heard so many people say, "Your disease does not define you." While this is true, it sure plays a part in every decision that is made, from going to dinner to moving across the country. Take lots of pictures and write about your experiences. You will never regret living!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042684989870334112.post-4981432865503114492011-07-20T22:55:48.689-04:002011-07-20T22:55:48.689-04:00I'm from the SF Bay Area but I moved to LA for...I'm from the SF Bay Area but I moved to LA for a couple of years and LOVED IT. Exactly like you said, I knew I'd end up back in Nor Cal but wanted to experience LA so I went for a time and had the time of my life. And like you alluded to, I always wanted to move to NYC and never did because I was too scared. Now I'm too old and have a (severely underwater)mortgage and a husband and it's just not in the cards. It's my biggest regret. Don't be like me! I'm so happy for you. Enjoy your time there. The next time we head down there I'll let you know. I'd love to have a drink with my bloggity friend.

This is going to be long. ...Hi Kelly, Hailey here. This is going to be long. <br /><br />1. LA is awesome. <br />2. LA is cheap...tequila is cheap because Mexico is three hours away and wine is cheap because Napa is five hours away and rent is cheap because it's not New York.<br />3. LA IS FAR!! I love my family and friends more than anything and that's the hardest part of living out here...I go home once a year...twice if I'm lucky. But I'm always happy to come back to sunny Cali.<br />4. Freelance has it's ups and downs. I will HELP YOU! Working freelance sucks because there is no health insurance/benefits. Working freelance also is awesome because sometimes you can just chill in between jobs.<br />5. Being from the East is a HUGE benefit. Out here they view us as prized employees because we have the proper work ethic and education.<br />6. I've never been more in shape post college. Fruits and vegetables are abundant and fresh. Hiking, running, biking, swimming, volleyball, walks etc will become regular for you since it's so available.<br />7. It really is always sunny in California. It rained 6 days this year and it won't rain again until December. The average temperature between Hollywood and the beach is 75 degrees and sunny.<br />8. NO HUMIDITY!!!!<br />9. Food here is awesome...from sushi to Mexican...to American I can't complain. However oddly enough considering the Jewish population it's hard to find a good bagel place. New York still has that beat. But everything else is top notch. <br />10. Need some snow? Several mountains surround LA and are easy to get to either by car or flight. <br />11. Vegas? San Fran? San Diego? Colorado? Hawaii? You can get to any of these place in 5 hours or less.<br />12. New York/New Jersey aren't moving. If all else fails...you can always go home.<br />13. I'm here and can't wait to have you come!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9042684989870334112.post-49455667997521233142011-07-20T13:43:35.992-04:002011-07-20T13:43:35.992-04:00Girl, you just gotta go if you feel it.
