You are 25.
Are you married? Do you have kids? Are you going to buy a house? Where would you buy?

I am not married, though I do have a boyfriend, and I don't have kids and we don't plan to have any since I don't want to pass on my asthma and he doesn't want to pass on his Ehlers-Danlos (a genetic connective-tissue disorder) since we have seen how expensive hospital visits due to our conditions can be.

My boyfriend loves California as much as I do and when we move to CA we hope to live in an apartment, maybe somewhere in or around San Diego. I've been looking in L.A. for jobs with no luck, and am now gonna check out S.D.

Born and raised in Taipei, Taiwan.
Moved to Chicago, IL when I was 12.

My father was born in Arroyo Grande, and my Mother's family were living in Lompoc for about 100 years before she was born in 1912. While I am very familar with my fathers family history, I don't know all the details of my Mothers side of the family, and all the old folks are drifting off now. I keep telling myself to get out there and find out more about her history, but I don't know any of the people that well. Of all the shoulda, coulda, wouldas, I wish I would have gotten more of my Mom's history before she passed away. I'm sure it would have been quite interesting.
So while I put down 5th generation, it is at least that, it could be even longer.

I was born and raised in Calif but we moved around a bit, my dad's job always kept us on the go. Came back from Az almost a year ago and IF I move again a few years down the line, as my last, final, permanent move, it'll be somewhere in the midwest. But yes, Im a Calif baby.
