so next year i will be moving to san francisco. it will be such a difference from calistoga, where i'm living right now. calistoga is a F**KING small town, calistoga is like a lake where the water is calm around you and you can make your own waves and they effect things and you can swim the whole curcumference of the lake and you're safe, locked within the land around you. but san francisco is like an ocean where there are these massive waves and it's a task sometimes staying afloat and not drowing, and there's all these dangers like sleeper wave and rip tides. but the thing about lakes is that they are surrounded on all sides by land so you are so limited as to where you can go and you are limited as to what effects you. but the ocean surrounds every piece of land on the planet so you can go wherever you like and things that float by you come from all over the world. so... where would be the best place for a person to center himself, a lake where they have the best vantage point to effect the things around them, or the ocean where they have the best vantage point to be effected by the things around them?

are you in Calistoga, CA? Looks like a peaceful place with reasonable access to the Big City.

(t4e letters t4at 4 and 9 represent are disabled on my keyboard so i 4ave to use t4e numbers instead...)

yes, i am from calisto9a ca. it is a peaceful place wit4 reasonable access to t4e bi9 city (except t4at i dont 4ave a car and t4erefore dont really 4ave reasonable access to anyt4in9). but w4at benefits do you t4ink can be 9ained by livin9 in a peaceful place?

peace is pretty valuable to adults, but as an 'almost adult' I can understand the urge to get the hell out of sleepyville
