I went from a small city to a big city as well. It is quite a culture shock as you say. Don't give up!

Good luck Ix !
SD is a city I enjoyed very much as a tourist (granted, I only stayed there a week). Do you American students use to have summer jobs when you replace vacationers ? If yes, there is a quite dynamic information-economy there, so summer jobs should be quite easy to find for you

Hey, boys, looks like we hooked another! Chalk it up as one for Cali! Now all we need is what, another 125,000 to replace that tech bubble that popped and all the BS Davis is putting us through?

You'll need a car in SD, so forget about that bike and Public Transportation crap. PT in SD is pretty lousy. One person told our friend (who is mixed), "Only homeless and Black people ride the bus."
Consider what JohnT said. It's pretty expensive to live in CA.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment

we have buses?
PT suks in Cali, it is almost non-existance anywhere outside of the Bay Area...
It isn't cheap to live here, what with the democrats running/ruining everything and all...Comment

Well, I made it here safely. I'm quite tired from travelling, though. But things are cool.Comment

SD is nice, as a tourist. But any place is worse when you move to it.So get your Naomi Klein books and move it or I'll seriously bash your faces in! - Supercitizen to stupid students

I don't know about that. I enjoyed both New Orleans and New York more as a resident than as a tourist.Originally posted by Olaf Hårfagre

BTW for your job search:
and don't forget the temp agencies especially since you're only going to be there for a few months. Take your girlfriend to the marine room restaurant, on the prado restaurant, or any of two dozen places downtown. Lastly, pick up a copy of the Free Weekly Reader to get a feel for things to do, places to go, and upcoming events. I only wish I was going back to SD too.Try http://wordforge.net/index.php for discussion and debate.Comment
