I'm used to the traffic believe me I live in LA, one thing I'm not used to is the way racial tension works there. Southern Hospitality is awesome, but my father said he was at a bar in Midtown, ATL w/ a friend who happened to be Hispanic and they wouldn't even serve him. They kept asking my dad if his friend wanted drinks ect... pretty much treated like a second class citizen. I'm not racist by any means but that's a trip to me.... guess it's something I'll have to get used to. I'm white so I'll be treated respectfully from what I understand. But what do you Georgia residents do in your spare time...? For instance here in California and when I went to school in CO there was always something to do. Obviously most water-sports and snow-sports are ruled out cause of no ocean and limited mountain access but... any Rockclimbing, Hiking, Camping, Lakes, ect that are around the area? It almost seems as though the ATL offers a whole lotta drinkin', which I don't mind haha! I might have to start playing Hockey again too, I'm hoping they have ice rinks there. |

Well, I'm a high school guy so I can always find something to do. You on the other hand are not. I'm not too sure about water sports but hell, it's Atlanta, you'll find something. I never really see too much racial tension though. Sure it happens occasionally, but where does it not? Also, if you want to talk about shopping. (This is my feminine side speaking) I'd literally go to Atlanta just to shop, they have the nicest mall I've ever been to. A Godiva chocolate store right night to an Apple and Nike store = heaven. I usually take my longboard up to Atlanta, that's a pretty fun and active thing to do. Anyways, there's an endless amount of cool places to visit and you've definitely got a years worth of exploring and excitement ahead of you.
