Growing up we always said we couldn't wait to get out of the valley. But after leaving for college you've probably come to realize just how great the valley really is! You spent your weekends at the Lehigh Valley Mall, the Carmike at the Promenades, the roller rinks, and especially Dorney Park!

Here are 12 signs you grew up in the Lehigh Valley:

1. 50% of your diet consists of Cali Burrito.

You have your order memorized and can eat it in record time. You were also devastated during their fire.

2. You had a Dorney Park season pass during middle school.

What cool person didn't?

3. You go to every night of Musikfest.

It's great but the traffic is horrendous.

4. You hate Parkland.

Even Parkland hates Parkland.

5. You've probably jumped off Peace Rock at least once.

It's iconic for the massive, graffiti-covered cliff.

6. You've also most likely taken a picture in front of Glen Onoko's waterfalls.

It's one of the prettiest hiking trails.

7. Half Apps was the Friday night hot spot.

You couldn't go into an Applebee's without knowing more than half the people there.

8. During the winter you practically live at Bear Creek.

You can see the lights for miles.

9. The Freddy Awards are kind of a big deal.

It's the Tony's for High School. Congratulations to Emmaus on 18 nominations for Miss Siagon!

10. Shankweiler's Drive-In is a popular summertime date.

It's the oldest drive-in movie theater in America.

11. You strongly believe that Wawa is 100% better than Sheetz.

I mean there really isn't an argument, Wawa is better.

12. You always say you hate the valley and can't wait to get out but you secretly love it.

Because the valley really does have everything.
