I live in Philly, so if there was one in Philly I would definitely go.  If it were in Baltimore or NY, I would also consider going, since they are only a train ride away.

I really want it to be in NYC or Jersey.

If NYC I will take a train over and be at penn station, except I don't want to go to far from the area because I will get lost and shit. NYCNYC PLZ

Johnny: yeah going from philly to NYC is easy. It takes like 2 hours excluding waiting for trains.

if it's philly i can go over to trenton and meet conchfeld there where he can buy me a really expensive fucking $75 round trip amtrack ticket

i expected this exact word-by-word response.

yes. i am on the tightest motherfuckin leash ever. i really should have explained this story earlier. like, my parents didn't let me drive until i was 18 because they decided 16 was way too early. when i'm at school, i get screamed at over the phone in polish if i don't call my mother every single day and tell her what i did that day/how was school. Previous summers i had been barely allowed to go out (going to the MOVIES or GIRLFRIEND'S HOUSE once a week was considered plenty) and if i tried to go out two days later it was considered TOO SOON (dont you have better things to do like clean the house or read some books in polish so you dont lose the language or play with your 8-year-old sister or do some summer studying?????)

i got more if you want

i mean

my parents were pretty overprotective of me as a child (dont leave the street or else you might get kidnapped and raped!!!!!!!!) but i just can't imagine them being like YEAH YOU'RE NOT DOING THAT once you are 20.  asking permission at that age is pretty incomprehensible to me!  i thought there was a universal cutoff between 18 and 19 where they stopped telling you what to do and started accepting it but still complaining/saying you shouldn't.

threats to disconnect my internet (which thankfully have not been realized) occur probably every couple of weeks due to my using the computer too much (my mom insists my bad vision is due to computer use despite the fact that bad eyesight runs in the family and i've had glasses since 5).

oh god this is so embarassing. now that my hair is longer my mother demands that i cut it like every two weeks because OYU CANT LOOK LIKE THAT IN CHURCH (oh yeah, did i mention she is the one who cuts it??? (i have been used to this for the past like 10 years)). every time i leave the house i am told to "behave" (heaven forbid i perform sexual acts!)

a couple months ago my mom asked if any people at work have ever offered me a cigarette or "some sort of grass". thankfully underage drinking is pretty accepted in polish culture, but i can't admit to goin to parties with alcohol because that would get in the way of schoolwork obviously.

edit: oh yeah this one time i put some hip-hop on my stereo in my room and my dad told me shut it off because "blackies listen to that" (not that this has anything to do with ase choking on his dog collar)

I may go if it is in or around Boston, but otherwise I really don't think it's worth the gas money. =[

i dont want to make this topic about ME but to answer your question: yeah.. she does. that probably explains the bad haircuts in the first years when i joined but not really anymore because at school i go to SUPERCUTS and have them do it. When im at home im cheap though, and don't really care, especially since i have longer hair now and she only trims it a little.

OK LETS TALK ABOUT GW MEET NORTHEAST

Yeah man, I feel your pain.  My dad is a pastor and my family is pretty religious and shit so I have to deal with very similar stuff.
