Nice, how comes Leicester? In all honesty I can't see the appeal, they're one that I rejected for a number of reasons.
I didn't think the campus/area/atmosphere was nice at all.
Really? I'm finding it great - I only know one person other then you at essex and hes one of the few people who prefers being at home xD

Ha. I might be going there next year. Are they seen as obnoxious? Torontonians get a bad rep, often deservedly.
Apparently some are - also I lie, I've met one canadian and hes lovely( although I might be slightly biased since he bought me drinks).

apparently even though west Virginia exists because Virginia seceded and became part of the confederacy during the civil war, and west Virginia stayed part of the united states, there are way more confederate flags in west Virginia.
okay, i get that. and i admit that i haven't really heard too many positive things about that and west virginia (i had to watch "the wide and beautiful whites of west virginia" in a class - kinda scary). also i've been told that morgantown is nothing like WV in general, especially since most of WV is pretty poor and morgantown - not so much...so i might be the wrong person to judge...just wanted to say that there are also some really awesome people there, like everywhere :biggrin:

I feel like West Virginia just exists so states can go "well, we've got problems, but be happy you don't live in West Virginia!"
Geographically speaking it's pretty, but goddamn do the people there suck. Ya should've come North, Pax. Or really anywhere other than WV.

Also, when a friend of mine went to WV she got picked on for being gay to the point where she feared for her life. She also got raped in the bathroom for being gay.

but that's not really the people's fault that live in west virginia...like i said before, there are tons of idiots, but that's at every campus. however, there were also some great people and i met some really good friends :smile: (from WV, as well as from other states and international) so, i'm happy that i went there - i guess exchange semesters are mostly fun, no matter where you end up :wink:  i never really got why WV is considered south, since it's not really - geographically speaking... i chose that university for a variety of different reasons - like public transport to bigger cities. most universities of the exchange program where pretty much in the middle of nowhere, without public transport. of course, there were also some better unis, but the chances of getting there where really small and since i've been to a lot of places in the US i wanted to go somewhere i haven't been yet (and i didn't want to end up in one of those huge cities for a whole semester) :wink: (and i wanted to see a-f in pgh :biggrin: ).

did she go to WVU? that really sucks :( clearly, there are idiots and i heard a lot about rapings going on.

i seriously don't want to live there, but i don't think that i want to live in the US in general, at least not for very very long :wink:
i think i've been to atlanta when i was like 8! is that the place with the coca cola museum?

coca cola factory, but yes. Atlanta has sooo much more to offer than a coca cola factory and an airport though.

Geographically speaking West Virginia is a midwest state, but the culture there is definitely Southern. Honestly, the mid-antlantic is the bestest.
