Maybe because I'm used to the things the way they are here.

Well, boring isn't the correct word. It's the attitude of a lot of people (not all, thank god) here that I'm starting to dislike. It's all me me me, almost never taking responsibility for their actions. That's what I don't like about my little country. And the fact that there are no mountains !

Luckily there are other, nice things here that make life fun : )

you're kidding!! wow those are some small towns...i live in a rather big town...state capital. i like it, but ive always thought it would be cool to live in a small town. be able to know most people around, walk over to your friends house instead of driving over...it'd be nice. my mom grew up in such a small town that when she took her driver's test for the first time she failed because she had never encountered a stoplight before! she didn't know how to turn left lol. :lol:

As this site is mainly Americans most of you won't of heard of my home, in fact many in England deny it's existance. It's a city built on the American grid system and famous for it's roundabouts and concrete cows, that's right: Milton Keynes.

Incidently a few scenes in one of the Superman films used MK as metropolis because it looks like a futuristic city, or it did at the time. I believe it was #3
