I moved to St.
Petersburg, Florida about 6 months ago.
I used to live in a small town in nebraska. I told my parents that I wanted to move to Florida to go to college. They thought that I was crazy. I applied to six different schools in Florida and only one school in nebraska. Of course my parents were very happy when I got accepted to the hometown school, but I was even happier when I was accepted to the school close to St. Petersburg, florida. I absolutely love living close to the nightlife, bars, and restaurants. There was nothing to do in my old hometown, and now I am surrounded by lots of things to do at night. There are places in St. Petersburg that stay open until 3:00 in the morning. In my old hometown, the gas station closed at 9:00 p.m. and that was the place that was open the latest. If you got hungry at midnight and you didn’t have any food in the house, there were no stores or restaurants open. St. Petersburg is a lot different and I like that a lot. One thing that I don’t like is the heat and humidity. The temperatures during the summer are a lot warmer here than they were at home. I never used to complain about the summer temperatures, but it feels sticky and wet as soon as I walk outside. I’m thankful the dormitory has a great air conditioner. My roommate and I have a thermostat in our room for the air conditioner and he likes the temperatures just as cold as I do.
