[quote=Anonymous]I did it in reverse--I was the California kid coming to the east coast for school. It was the best thing I could have done for myself; it really forced independence and was an amazing growth opportunity. When the closest family is a 6 hour flight away, you really have to blossom on your own. It was great. I spent holidays with friends, found internships entirely on my own as opposed to being able to lean on family connections, and truly experienced a new culture that I couldn't have found in California. The downside for my parents is that I met my husband in college, so I became a permanent east coaster...but I am so glad I went far away for school (even if I wish every winter I was still in southern california!)[/quote]
