We discovered that it is really annoying when people are scared to tell you how they feel.
We discovered that Miami can be very plastic and fake, and some parts so raw and real.
We discovered that we are glad we are friends.
We met these girls who have decided to move into one of the worst areas in inner-city Miami and work with troubled youth.
We saw some really fine girls.
We fell in love with country music and realized that growing up in liberal Chicago made us miss out on some awesome lyrics.
In Chicago its popular to say, "I like all music... Except for country." Weird how that is... I have a theory its because its so liberal I missed out on country because country is associated with conservatives or something! Country is awesome! You can actually understand what the singers are saying. I got nothing against liberals, flip, I'm a registered democrat, but man they made me miss out on country. I heard a song that you are only a guy if "your hands can pick up a toolbox", thats just cool. I have never actually picked up a toolbox, but guys that have are just more manly for doing it, I don't care what you say.
Any thoughts on why us northerners don't like country?

I once heard the song "she thinks my tractor is sexy" which is a country song, and I loved it. But I pretended it was stupid because everyone hated country music at my conservative private christian school. So for me it wasn't the conservative jargon. I don't know, maybe I will start listening to country. peace.

There is good country music and bad. Just like all other forms/ styles of music.
I happen to like good country music, and I'm a northener! :)
