Where are you from?
Yes, another poll. I am about to go to my last two final exams of the term at noon and it seems I like to make polls to distract myself lol...
I'm very slowly forming a hypothesis... So please answer the above poll IF you answered the "how we date" poll I've clumped things together into regions just to not make the poll a bajillion years long. I'd prefer much more detail, but I'm going to do a rough aprox. I know people move around. And loving in new places influences new ways of thinking and viewing. It changes your perspective. However, we also have our place of origin back ground that influences and colours the window we view through. So, please chose the place you spent the first 25 years of life in. If you left before that, choose the place you have lived in the longest. Of course I would add far more options for regions if the board was not primarily american. But it is, soooo.... There are also a huge heap of other family of origin things I have questions about, like which generation you are away from immigrant, parent and grand parent back ground etc. you don't have to answer those but it would be nice if you did, below. |
I can't see a poll!

My safari froze and I lost the will to write the questions. I then had to run out the door to write two final exams. I had no idea it posted this. Someone report this assholery and get it deleted! Bunch of wasting buggery!

And now after 18 days and 16 finals, I'm going to go get drunk and eat poutine with my best mate, Moose Flaps McCunty*

New England born and raised... Massachusetts specifically. Western and central so no accent...
Born to be a Carolina girl. Like I told my mama...just cuz you're born there doesn't mean you gotta stay there. Too many bad winters for my liking. Im not a wuss no matter what my mother says! Why be a martyr and suffer when you have a choice in the matter. New England will always be home and well loved by me...but the world is a big place and I want to experience it :) |
Lets see...
Till I was nine I lived in Massachusetts, first Milton and then a little cute town on the cape called, Osterville. Then my father had the most amazing idea of moving my family to, Oahu. Due to a lot of reasons we moved from, Oahu to Vegas when I was 15. Then when I was 27 I moved to, London England to be with my now husband. I would love to be the last place I ever live! Well as long as my husband can stand me! |
