Hahaha...I sadly never think of New York! It's automatically not on my list because I'm too loyal to Chicago. I guess there is a bus system in Raleigh (well Chapel Hill) around where my friend lives and she uses it sometimes so it can't be that terrible. It's also a lovely place to visit. And Florida is horrible year round. There is like one week where it's cool otherwise the temperature is pretty much the same year round.

As for the movies, yeah they are totally expensive! It was really bad when I lived in the UK. Here isn't too terrible. I paid 75hkd as a student and going to an off place. That's like 10USD. So not that bad. I don't spend a lot of money, so it's the one thing I treat myself to!
