10 differences between the north and the south
1)farm animals in people's yards.
today on my way home from school I noticed that someone had chickens, a goat and some cows all in their yard, maybe its cuz im from NJ but that seemed strange to me.
2) old men in cowboy hats
another thing you don't see much of in NJ. just seeing that today made me giggle i dont know why.
3) The things people say
every place has its own strange things they say, for example in NJ you have "im going down the shore"- translation im going to the beach. or they way people from NJ say water WUTER. However people say such things as "im ganna go make groceries"(food shopping) and "i been knowing him"
4)weather
this is kinda given but still there is a difference there. it is so hot down here and very wet. it sucks i love the cold and here it is January and its like 75.
5)Education
Schools down here suck. i used to complain about when our schools budget wouldnt get approved in NJ but here its pretty bad. We have maybe 100 or 150 books in library. it bothers me.
6)pace
everything is so much slower down here. if people drove the way they do here in the north they would get their ass ran over.
7)friendliness
everyone is friendly here. when i started dating someone here i met his parents and they hugged me. that was very uncomfortable, growing up in the north im not used to people randomly hugging me when i dont know them.
8)NO DINERS
THEY DONT HAVE ANY DINERS HERE WHERE AM I SUPPOSED TO EAT AT 1 AM ENOUGH SAID
9)CARS(or should i say trucks)
In the north most people drive suv or a car but like everywhere you look here you see trucks. i dont like them they make me nervous. i would think they would roll easily.
10)Food
the food is so different i could go on and on about it, but i wont. the main differences is in the south there is a lot of sea food in NJ you had a lot of greasy food like pizza and cheesestakes(by the way its not a Philly cheesestake if it doesnt have cheese wiz and mountains of grease dripping from it and oh yeah it has to be from PHILLY)
