Why California Is The Best Place In the World

California is without a doubt one of the most interesting and diverse places to live. The state of California has much more to offer than other states in the US. California has numerous large cities, such as Los Angeles, san Francisco and more. The state is filled with experiences, through traveling the mountains or simply roaming the cities. California teaches people a different sense of lifestyle, whether that means living in the state or just visiting. With all the different atmospheres and diverse regions inside and out of California, that state has become known as one of the most amazing places to live in the world.

Even though California is not Greece or the Caribbean islands, the state has award winning beaches and famous mountains. Because California is located on the western side of the US, geographically, the state has both hot and cold atmospheres. People can develop skills in water sports and snow sports almost parallel to each other. I’ve had friends travel after snowboarding in Tahoe in the early morning to driving four hours and surfing in the late afternoon near the coast. While this seems like a lot of work to me, the point is that its possible to do. California is so well equipped, that someone can bike up and down the coast and never feel lost. California is all around a place for people with all interests, those who love nature, and those who love big city life and more.

California is also a place of diversity within the general population. The state is diverse in color, and diverse in lifestyles as well. California, mostly due to its history, is a place of redemption. Many people have travelled and immigrated to California for numerous reasons, one of them being that the state has so much to offer and so welcoming. Immigrants from all around have traveled to California to make a better life for themselves and have inherently created an amazing diverse public throughout the state. Most California schools, in mostly the larger cities, carry and schools hundreds of children from all walks of life. People of different backgrounds all come together to learn and grow under the same models. This is one of the most amazing things about California, the diversity between the academics. While the state has much more room to grow publicly, so far California has created a place of growth for all people and all ages.

On top of being a place of diversity, the state has also been the birthplace of popular culture and helped develop the film industry. Today, California is known less for its diversity among regions and people, and more about its creation of celebrities and rich culture. This is another reason people admire and inspire to be in California. The opportunities of becoming part of that industry and atmosphere is a very appealing quality. California is an all around amazing and beautiful place to visit and live in. People aspire to come to California for many of the reasons written here. The diversity throughout the state in all aspects, adds to California’s influence on the rest of the world as well.

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
