<ol>
<li><p>Berkeley</p></li>
<li><p>UCLA</p></li>

<p>Just because SoCal > Virginia. I have barely ever been to socal (just LAX) and I lived 50 miles from Virginia....i'd rather be in Cali.</p>

<p>because im consistant and i'm full of undying admiration for all the hotties on CC. I want to flirt with you all. <em>wink wink</em> </p>

<p><3 <3 <3 <3, </p>

<p>Izzie Bear</p>

<p>P.S. DRab, I do see that it was just an obvious typo. I didn't read the above post. Sorry for sounding anal about it. Heh.</p>

<p>It is quite fine. I'm glad you corrected me- i don't want to be giving out some obviously false information, even if in typo form.</p>

<p>Aussie - please keep in mind that three quarters of the CCers on this thread are from California so there is some major bias going on here....</p>

<p>Lets all do the UVA chant:</p>

<p>UVA! UVA! UVA! UVA! UVA! UVA!</p>

<p>I wanna chant too.</p>

<p>Yeah, uh, uh
Longbeach in the house, uh, yeah
Oaktown, Oakland definitely in the house, hahaha
Frisko (yeah) Frisko
Hey, you know L.A. up in this
Pasadena, where you at?
Yeah, Ingelwood, Ingelwood always up to no good
Even Hollywood tryin' to get a piece baby
Sacramento, Sacramento, where you at, yeah (California)
Throw it up y'all, throw it up, throw it up, I can't see ya

Yeah, that's right (California)

Uh, California love, California love, yeah</p>

<p>its 'in tha house'... cali gurls trying to act gangster.. rofl</p>

<p>How about something original izzybear? Or do we have to rip tupac's lyrics all the time?</p>

<p>Bwahaha. I'm not gangster what so ever. Oh man.</p>

<p>It's a song actually, entitled "California Love" by 2Pac and Dr. Dre. I just copied and pasted the ghetto fabulous lyrics for everyone's mutual enjoyment and laughter. </p>

<p><3,</p>

<p>Izzie Bear</p>

<p>How about lyrics to Hotel California? Cept... I don't think it has anything to do with california.</p>

<p>Bah, I can't edit.</p>

<p>Anyway, as far as individuality goes, I suppose you didn't get that my post was supposed to be a very cheesy joke. I'm not like, trying to represent California through a terribly cliche rap song.</p>

<p>Sheesh people, get a darker sense of humor.</p>

<p><3,</p>

<p>Izzie Bear</p>

<p>Unfortunately, I got your cruel humor. </p>

<p>'Ghetto fabulous' and '<3 Izzie Bear'? Who are you? Aussie, another reason why you shouldn't go to berkeley.</p>

<p>UCLA or Berkeley. I've never been to Charlottesville myself but I can't imagine it having better weather, places and people than either Los Angeles or San Francisco. California is the place to be - no wonder we've got more internationals in the UCs, both exchange and full-time, than any other state system.</p>

<p>I wish they all could be California girls...</p>

<p>hahaha...</p>

<p>my goddddddd. you are so very serious confidential. and my humor wasn't cruel, it was sarcastic, in a sense. you really need to calm down and just enjoy these threads when the forums get jokingly catty.</p>

<p>honestly, who cares how i sign my posts? i don't see anyone else getting irriated. i enjoy sanrio stationary, and my signature makes my posts just that more hello kitty. <em>teeheeheepinksparkleteehee</em></p>

<p>ghetto fabulous, ill say it a hundred more times if you'd like. and i'm sure that the fact that i simply don't take these threads seriously, and attempt to be off-beat and laid-back gives berkeley horrible representation. because really, we're all a bunch of fickle nerds who can't make an attempt to be annoyingly humorous. you dont know me or my intelligence, so please.</p>

<p><3,</p>

<p>Izzie Bear</p>

<p>p.s. ghetto fabulous.</p>

<p>GHETTO FABULOUS</p>

<p>i love it.</p>

<p><3 <3 <3 <3,</p>

<p>Izzie Bear a.k.a. Cute Cali Hottie Baby Sweetie Pie Gangsta Star</p>

<p>alright. im from Berkeley,CA and I gotta say that the SF Bay Area is one of the greatest cultural meccas in the world. There are people from all over the world and you will get to experience an atmosphere as dynamic as Los Angeles without getting lost and much more dynamic than Virginia. If you really want to experience American culture (the melting pot) to the fullest, UCLA or Berkeley would definitely be your best bet. </p>

<p>At Berkeley, you are literally in the middle of an urban downtown area. Walk one block west and you will run into a "sprawling" (as much as it gets for a town of 100 thousand) downtown area with TONS of restaurants, movie theaters and other recreation centers. Of course, there is some crime in Berkeley but that is inherent in any urban neighborhood. </p>

<p>So.... choose Berkeley! or UCLA.</p>

<p>The cultural thing is being overblown. UVA is pretty diverse and is in a fairly nice area. If you really want to visit a "urbane" city, you can always just drive up to D.C, Philly, or NYC.</p>

<p>Ps. Nova>Socal =)</p>
