Go hangout at the Perry projects or the westside on a Friday night. You will be culturized in no time.
My one friend would always bitch about how much B-lo sucks, then he decided to take a semester at Monterey Bay, cali. Turned out the weather was just as warm if not warmer here in the fall and the city/night-life was about the same. After one semester he decided to come back and go back to buff-state.
