what are the 5 Towns?
They're 5 Towns on Long Island. I'm not sure what the point of grouping them is, but they each have seperate names and the whole area is just called the 5 Towns.

My whole student body is Jewish, Asian, or Italian.
Orangeskittles, I was laughing out loud when I saw your AZN comment.
In my school it's called the Asian Invasion.
Gotta love Long Island.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 2:55pmIt's funny that Long Island is called the Five Towns. The area that I live in is called the Quad Cities, even though it's made up of five cities. How's that for confusing?

I live on Long Island and I haven't heard of 5 towns...hmmmm.
Where I live people refer to the areas as more of South Shore and North Shore.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 3:00pmI live outside of Toronto. We have a large East Indian population. The only people that I know who are Jewish are the people I know on the boards.

64% of Maryland's Asian population lives in my home county (I just learned that the other day). They were the Asian Mafia at my school; my best friend was Chinese and even she was intimidated by them. My other friend was Indian, but didn't like the Indian people, so he decided he was going to be black instead.
I had seriously weird friends.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 3:04pmThat's my university now, the smaller towns have a larger white population.

I live on the East End of Long Island.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 3:15pmIt's a pretty big place!

Posted: 2/24/06 at 3:26pmI'm just going to nod and smile. I don't know anything about the complete geography of New York, I've got a rough estimate, but that's about it.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 3:38pmI don't really know that many places on LI either. I live close to Queens, I know that much.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 3:57pmI know nothing about Long Island, New York, or anyother state. except Nebraska, which sucks. I hardly know anyhting about Nebraska though so yeah. *sigh*
#3645Circuit City
Posted: 2/24/06 at 4:01pmI know probably more than I should about the States. I'm able to retain information that I don't need. If it's going to be important on a test, I can't remember it at all.
tacos are great

I don't mean to sound depressing, but my childhood hasn't rocked that much, so when I'm 18, at least I'll have the option of leaving. I hate saying that because I know millions of kids have it a whole lot worse than me. Still,I can't help but feel that turning 18 is the light at the end of the tunnel.
My state is overall, fairly diverse...I guess...okay, not really. My town isn't at all. It's not even *religiously* diverse. There are two churches and one of them is used as a theater. It's a nice town, just small and conservative.
SARAH! Smooches.
Literal tacos! Sheesh. Y'all are nasty....
#3647Circuit City
Posted: 2/24/06 at 4:09pm*smooches*. You'll have a lot of opportunities when you turn 18 Noah, even if you don't leave that state. Just to get out on your own and have your own little place gives such a feeling of freedom and independence.

Posted: 2/24/06 at 4:11pmI'm scared for when I'm older too. I've grown up with the same people, in the same environment for all of my life, and it'll be a reality shock when I finally live on my own and have to actually worry about money, and getting a job.
#3649Circuit City
Posted: 2/24/06 at 4:14pmI cried the first night on my own. I had never been completely on my own, in a different city. I made good friends quickly, my best friend from that first week I'm still living with. It was nice to gradually break into living on my own. As much as I hated residence, I'm grateful for that experience. It let me live on my own, and the only bills I had to worry about were phone and internet. Which then allowed me to be ready to pay the bills like I am now. It's going to be kinda strange moving back home at the end of the year, and not having all the independence that I have now.
