San Diego is more than just a residence.
It’s a way of life.
A true paradise.
I adore the San Diego/Encanitas/Hillcrest area more than any other place in America. I visit there at LEAST 10-12 times a year. Sometimes with extended stays. It's just an unmatched atmosphere, and it's pretty much my second home. I took some site summaries and personal reviews to map my place. San Diego is so much that you can't even begin to describe all its glory in 300-500 words. I also look to work for MacBeth, Glamour Kills, or any of the alternative/punk/skater based apparel stores when I finish with school.
My character's name is Atom, because he is a former member of Angels & Airwaves. They are an alternative band from San Diego, and I just chose one of their members to base this off of.

For me, growing up in a small town all my life, I can't imagine living in a place like you describe. I bet you think this is silly but to me Lexington is a "big" city! I love the small towns and farms, but I enjoy visiting the city for short periods of times. I would love to travel to the west coast at some time in my life. I think it is awesome that you get to go there so often. And I really like how you described it in your personification. You did a good job, and liked the lists at the beginning! Your formatting was different than most peoples, but I liked that it was different and unique. Again, good job!
ReplyDeleteThis post is much different from the rest, which I really like. I like that you take it from the point of view of an actual person that lives there. Since I come from quite a small town (well maybe not extremely small but you know, it's a boring place) I could never imagine visiting San Diego, or imaging what on earth I'd do there since it's such a huge place. I also like how you added the line of the LGBT in there which really gives it a personal touch, and overall I really enjoy this post! San Diego sure sounds nice. Great job Leon!
