Is she supposed to be really famous in Finland or something? I don't even know why she's on our TV in the first place.
Well anyone can apply to be on X Factor, last year there was a girl group from the Philippines & a guy from Australia & who can forget Gamu, the African contestant who was deported lol

Can you imagine how much attention she will get in Finland if she wins
Oh ****, sorry lol. Admittedly, today I've been a bit on the grumpy side. My apologies.
Honestly, I think Chicago is like your ideal city.....huge metro with four very solid seasons.
Lol no problem. Sarcasm doesn't translate well on the Internet.
Yeah I think I'd be a happy camper in Chicago. I don't know much about it, but it seems like a nice enough city. Problem is, I like to have varied day/weekend trip options nearby without having to hop on a plane. Yeah, being on the shores of lake Michigan is nice, but apart from that Chicago is unfortunately pretty far from other points of interest. Cost issues aside, I think I'd rather live in NYC. Even if its winters leave a lot to be desired, its location would more than make up for this. And the city is even bigger! I've heard Chicagoans are a friendlier crowd overall, but, well, I'm a Parisian.
I think Rozenn would like New York better if only from the higher density & busyness. And as he said, more interesting surroundings. Chicago's definitely nice (and cleaner!), but I like New York better.
The "cool snap" for this weekend and beyond just keeps getting more and more pathetic. At this point I almost don't want to even look at the models any more. Nothing is worse than frigid, well below average temps up north and bull**** above average Atlantic **** here.
I'm sure there are plenty of well-off low-crime areas still there, for now.
Chicago seems nice enough for the most part. I'm guessing 90% of murders there are gang-related and occur in the same areas, so you can easily avoid that.
