San Diego is more of a college town and military barracks. Los Angeles is aight at night but the fake life is not attractive.

OP,

I think you're a prophet. I called my cousin in NY yesterday, complaining to him of how much weight I've lost cos I missed Nigerian foods.

I missed the ladies out there, it's pretty easy to FILE 'em without fear of someone coming to tell you that she's PREG. ( cos dem self no wan shame their fam & friends), but over here you're standing on your toes.

I missed TFC

I missed DESIGNER RICE

I missed YAHOOZA SUYA

I missed JAVENIK

SOMEONE TAKE ME HOME oooooo!!!!

However, I didn't miss that CHAOS

I miss smoking that green straight off the branches at Kuwait in Egbeda, Canal & Abbatoir in Abule-egba, Railway at Agege, Oja & Alaska at Sango-ota, and Evans Square Ebutte-meta

Had the best experiences smoking with my homies at those joints- the camaraderie and banter was fantastic

And the chit was cheap too -
