Good places to go with the family?

MirandaGardens — Mon, 22 Aug 2011 07:55:55 +0000

As a graduation gift, my parents are letting me choose the place that I want to visit.

I’ve been in several states and have seen several "big" tourist attractions.

Currently, I’m thinking about seeing the redwoods in California.

Please give some random tips or recommendations, because I want to make the most of it.

P.s- It has to be in the United States, nowhere outside of them.

my dream college has a stoner reputation?

MirandaGardens — Thu, 14 Oct 2010 08:27:31 +0000

i love Humboldt State University. I cannot imagine myself going anywhere else. I LOVE the Redwood forest. its paradise to me. i love the rain and the community there.
BUT EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE WORLD THINKS I WANT TO GO THERE FOR WEEED!its so frustrating %$#$@@
i dont know what to tell people. i really feel like saying fuck off! but obviously i cant use that language.
everyone thinks that way; my parents, there friends, my friends, teachers, the entire internet!!!

blah idk what to do!??!

should i just not go because everyone is giving me a hard time?
i do smoke. but i would never pick a school based on that.
college of the redwoods doesnt have my major :/

Colleges.ugh.decision time.help!please?

im deciding between sonoma state and humboldt state.
my mom wants me to go to sonoma, mostly because its closer (about an hour away).
*the pros:
close to home
sunny weather
nice dorms
better reputation

*cons:
-Rohnert Park (the town its in) is sooooo boring!it’s deff not a college town. its in the suburbs and all they have is like a bunch of chainstores. i HATE that kind of environment. and i heard the town is full of a bunch of old people who always call the cops
-commuter campus..half the people leave on weekends, which means i probably will. but i want to go to a college that will be my HOME not a home away from home.

Humboldt
pros:
-downright beautiful campus and area. redwood trees everywhere.
-the smell of fresh, clean air (lots of trees=more oxygen)
-people there are SO nice! just a bunch of chill people
-dont need a car because most things are within walking distance
-residential campus–it will be my home. and i hope to live in that area after i graduate.
-the town is very college friendly–its a college town! lots of college-centered things
-in general, i just love the town its in (Arcata, CA)
-the food is mostly organic and fresh (grown right in the area)

cons:
-bad weather–it rains most of the year :/ (although i dont really care)
-when people think humboldt, they think weed

im not too concerned about the reputations because im going into nursing and they dont really care where you graduate from, employers care more about the grades you got.

ugh!!so hard.
do i go to a school i downright love and cant wait to go to even though it rains
or
do i go to a school my parents favor thats closer to home and has nicer weather?

what would you do in my situation?

Going to california for vacation, what are some cool things to do with a family?

MirandaGardens — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 18:19:08 +0000

I’m 14 going on vacation with my parents to California. I have never been before, but my dad lived there so her knows alot, but he wants me to research what I wanna do on the trip. We are going to San Francisco, San Jose area (visiting family), LA Area, Santa Monica, and I’m not sure where else. I am open to going almost anywhere in the state, so if you know of anything cool let me know!

California vacation tips- Disneyland with 4 mo old?

MirandaGardens — Sat, 29 May 2010 15:21:26 +0000

My parents are taking my husband, my baby(who will be just shy of four months), and me to Disneyland and some other CA attractions. I need tips on going with an extremely low budget(they are paying for it, but aren’t very well off, just determined to go!), and making life a little easier being there with a baby. We will be stopping in Las Vegas on the way and probably spending the night. It is about 19 hours in a car both directions. The biggest help I need is with bringing food to prevent eating out. However, any tips would be WONDERFUL!
The family joke is that Disneyland is our "Mecca", we have to go as often as we can. The reason my dad is so determined to go is because he wants to go with the whole family(my brother(16) and sister(15) are going as well) around the time each grandchild is born. We don’t do many family vacations besides camping, but Disneyland is a constant! So I’m not too worried about my baby not remembering this trip because we have always gone at least once every five years or so(once when my brother was only one month old!).
I’m also BFing. And it’s not like we are doing a daytrip to Disneyland. This is going to be like, a ten day vacation involving Disneyland, the beach, Las Vegas, Palm Springs, and I don’t know what else yet.
