I'm torn between two states: California, land of sun and bikinis.. New York, land of.. abunch of buildings.. and.. bluetopaz?

Depends on which part of Cali.. it can be really smoggy. =[

haha you said "smoggy"

So I'm in at NYU and I'm in at UC Berkeley.. still waiting to hear back from Chicago(top choice.) Anyway, since I'm indecisive, I want NuTang to help decide my future... if you were me, where would you spend the next three years of your life? NY or California?


Things to consider: NYU's tuition is around 38,000. In state at UC Berkeley is 8.
Jack McCoy, my inspiration to be a lawyer and favorite character from Law and Order, went to NYU.

California weather is better.... not as erratic as weather in New York. Plus we don't have crappy produce here.

On the other hand, NYU would be good if you really like the city.

I agree with random. The weather here in CA is pretty consistent and perpetually warm. You won't have to worry about freezing your butt off :P
Food seems to be abundant at both places...so I won't say much more about that.
Oh yeah, CA has beaches too.

Eh, it's ultimately your choice though...but I hope you get accepted at Chicago too !

I think I'd love both places.. I could reenact scenes from my favorite movies in either.

Think about public transportation... New York definitely has California beat there, but then again it's also more expensive, even if it is more extensive.

Oh yeah, and another thing... William Hung went to Berkeley. That could be either a plus or a minus, depending on how you feel about him.

I thought the bay area had a good metro system.

It's alright, but it's not as good as New York's, of course.

If you have a car then California would be better. If you're going to be using public transit a lot I would go with New York. I don't use the buses a lot at home, but I don't like them much. I like the Metrocard system that New York has... it's a lot more convenient than having to carry change around with you. (Though if you get a bus pass it doesn't make a difference anyway)

Blahhhh, there are so many different factors to consider here. X|

Honestly I like California better for most things, but New York is superior if you like to go out and do stuff a lot. (And spend money, lots of money!)

Yea I have yet to travel over to CA, but yea, depends on what type of environment you wanna be around. New York does have good transit system, that's for sure
