The Haircuts. Go freakin' read! Now.

You know, people have told me to consider Boston as an alternative to NYC as City I Want To Move To. This story is almost convincing me to give it a go.

And argh, this is why I wish there was an Antwerp-based band with a slash fandom. because this is the kind of story I'd love to write abou my city. Gnar.

Isn't it *fabulous*? vegan!justin is my imaginary boyfriend.

Also, you should add Boston as your alternate. A back up or some such. It's quite a lovely little city.

Yeah, but. NYC is like my big dream, man. I'e been dreaming of going there since I was, like, seven. And then last year, I went, and fell in love, and. And I know nothing about Boston, really. I demand any city I live in be close to the sea (and that's close in belgian terms, not US terms), not too American, and big.

Well, see. That's why I say a back up. Because you shouldn't give up your dream. But it's nice.

Boston is less "American" than NY in some ways and more in others.

close in belgian terms, not US terms

I have no clue what that means, really, but Boston is on the ocean. Like Boston Harbor and the boats come in off the Atlantic and there's a navy yard and also beaches right outside the city. Close like NY is close.

It's smaller than NY by quite a bit, though. Of course, what isn't, really?

And really, who cares, but I'm bored enough that answering this comment is my only entertainment so I'm going all out.

But, NY is NY and nothing is like it and certainly not Boston. So, stick with that.

Close in Belgian terms meaning, to me, Antwerp is medium far from the sea. It's about an hour and a half by train, I believe.

And, yeah. My big dream, sticking with it, but if Boston's more likely to get me a job, ... Shouldn't be worrying about this just yet, though.

(Out of curiousity, any idea how likely a 24-yo Belgian chick with a HS diploma, fluent knowledge of Dutch and English and a working skowledge of French would be to get a good job?)

Aww, poor thing, all bored. need entertainment? I can um. Juggle, if you want. =D

Eep! Thanks. :)

Also, being an AU addict, I would just like to say that I strongly encourage the writing of an AU set in Antwerp, because I really don't know much about Antwerp and I think it would be really cool to read Nsync! Meets! Antwerp! or something like that. I mean, everything is very America based in this fandom, which is understandable, but because of that it might be refreshing to stick them someplace else.

So yes, be free! Write Antwerp! Whoot!

Err... too much coffee this morning.

And now you're tempting me to write Baby!Sync in Antwerp. Because dude, Chris would love the club I go to, and they could educate Justin and Lance about all the freak songs played there and stuff.

Dammit, I don't need more plot bunnies!
