St. Louis

 Well when it comes to st Louis i used to hate  the place, but i admit i was judging the book by its cover. I had only been really to st Louis  passing through from Chicago or going to Chicago from here. so the idea i got about the city was only from the White castles i stopped at or the gas stations. but i have to say i was completely wrong about the place. i have a friend i went through hair school with who is from st Louis and got us accustomed to going uo there for different events like mardi gras and st Patrick day. when you go to a place or a city with a person who is from there you see a different side of the city. most of my life Ive heard horror stories about east st louis and the crime and such, but as of the last 4 years when we go out, after the club the after set is out there in east saint and we feel the most comfortable there. crazy.. then when you institute the love the people from there have for heir city and the sports clubs and so on. you realize youve been close to a proud majotr city for the last 10 years plus and didnt even batr a eye at it. being from chicahgo i guess has a way of making you snooty lol we have the bulls, deep dish pizza and da bears... but i admit the rams are getting to me starting to appreciate the love for a red bird and i love the night life for young adults in st louis. gets me my fix of the big city life with out having to drive 8 to 9 hours to do so. glad i actually had a chance to see it from a different light, especially since mardi gras is coming up again here ina coupl of weeks. one of the biggest outside celbrations i have ever been to in my life and im from chicago.
