New Jersey was fun, but…

Earlier this week my sister asked me whether or not I enjoyed my time in New Jersey. Until that point, I hadn't really quantified my time there; it was fun, but I don't think I'll miss it. It was really nice to live with my girlfriend, and b near her family. And the close proximity to the city was nice too. Oh, and I'll miss the mandatory full service gas stations. Not having to pump your own gas is awesome (unless of course you're in a hurry). But New Jersey does have it's bad points, enough for me to not ever want to return for more than a visit.

For one thing, I was always getting lost. Road signs in New Jersey are the worst. If they were existant at all, they were far from intuitive. Oh, and the people really drive like they have nothing to loose; a near accident was a daily occurrence. Although, I must admit, it was kind of nice to learn stick on the streets of NJ. If you can drive there, you can drive anywhere. I've had to pull some ill maneuvers since being back in Cali, maneuvers some might deem reckless, but that were actually survival techniques on NJ streets. It's nice to have those kind of moves in my arsenal.
