Why I Love LA
okay so recently, I’ve talked with a couple of my friends and we were talking about our home towns. So basically, long story short everyone agreed that Los Angeles was a terrible place to live. Of course, I disagreed, but I had nothing really spectacular about Los Angeles. There’s smog everyone, it’s dirty, expensive, crowded, the people are mean, its dangerous, and the list just grows. It really made me depressed. If you compared lists, LA seemed like a terrible place to live.
So I was pretty depressed, because I felt like I let down LA. And then, I began thinking, I mean, really thinking about why LA is the greatest city in the world. I thought maybe, Hollywod. But is Hollywood really why it’s the best? Personally, I don’t like that. Hollywood is a land where everyone thinks they’re better than each other, and you’re not yourself. So many people there have different facets of themselves that they show and don’t show to you.
So what makes LA great? Why do all the tourist want to visit LA? The giant Hollywood sign? Roscoe’s Chicken n’ Waffles? Pink’s hotdog? Disneyland? I mean, if you stay in LA for about a month, you’ll be done with all the touristy part of Los Angeles. So why is everyone spending so much money living in Los Angeles? At least in New York, there are business men who need to be to close to the action.
The beauty of Los Angeles is because of all those flaws. It has so much problems. I admit, San Fransico is an amazing place. It’s an amazing place to be, great food, beautiful city, nice people, etc. but that’s it. It’s such a great place to be, but that’s about it. I feel like there’s not depth. Los Angeles is filled with problems because of the all the people in this city. The greatness of Los Angeles is the problems themselves. We have so potential, and there’s so much work here left undone.
Even though we hate each other, we all group together, as one city, to rep LA with our life. That’s what makes Los Angeles the greatest city out there. No matter where you may be, no matter how comfortable you are, if you lived in Los Angeles, you’ll always miss this great city, wishing to be back, and excited to come back.
Also, the weather can be a variable. xP
For all of you people who are not from LA, don’t judge us just from what you see. We know we’re still a young city. We don’t have much history, and if anything, the biggest historical event about LA is the LA riot. woot. that’s great. Before you convince yourself that LA is not a place you want to live, look around. See all the people who live here, content. There’s so much out there for us, and like a child, we’re still growing, experiencing life. To live and die in LA, everyone.
it’s san FRANCISCO, DANG IT DAVID! and san franciscans have problems too.
