Ideal destinations for post-graduation....
So, findyourspot.com is a cute website that gives people an idea of their 24 most ideal places to live. I shall now list (and agree/disagree) my 24 ideal spots...here goes!
1. Sheboygan, WI (no thanks. next!)
2. Hartford, Connecticut (if I go to the east coast, I'll think about it).
3. Champaign-Urbana, IL (but they have a good music school, umm...maybe grad school)
4. Little Rock, AR (let's think - no).
5. Milwaukee, WI (I KNEW I was a Milwaukee girl! Score!) - described as The American City...which I'm not quite sure about, but then again, there are FESTIVALS there ALL SUMMER! :)
6. Providence, RI (again...east coast, maybe).
7. Madison, WI (um, grad school? maybe?)
8. La Crosse, WI (I've never even been there, but I'll probably go with a big negative)
9. Chicago, IL (The Windy City! Who knew???)
10. Portland, Oregon (hey! Gina! oh wait, you're in Eugene, and you'll be going to Chicago. Conundrum! Next!)
11. New Haven, Connecticut (um...not sure)
12. Honolulu, Hawaii (sign me up - it's warm there!)
13. Kenosha, WI (a suburb of Chicago!)
14. Eau Claire, WI (nope)
15. Corvallis, Oregon (where?)
16. Sacramento, CA (is it warm there?)
17. Frederick, Maryland (um. has the nation's oldest agricultural fairs...i think i shall pass)
18. Eugene, Oregon (Gina, you can't leave)
19. Oshkosh-Appleton-Neenah/Menasha, WI (no, i'm LEAVING this area, thank you)
20. Charleston, WV (hey! maybe...yo, elizabeth?)
21. Fayetteville, AR (um, well aside from the oboe grad school assistantship, NO)
22. Baltimore, MD (um?)
23. Baton Rouge, LA (probably not. i dislike the south)
24. New Orleans, LA (well, except new orleans! boom. i'm there)

So...we shall see. I guess Ohio isn't on my list anywhere. Oh well. I don't think I would want to move there anyway, except maybe to wherever Ohio State is for grad school.
And seriously, is Ripon the ONLY Wisconsin city besides Green Bay not on my list??? Not that I like Green Bay either, it's like, a big spread out farm. Best described by me as a big small town, urban areas interspersed with FARMS. Gah. Help. :)
