Practice your american vernacular. For example "your mate" is "yo nigga", and so on. Good luck friend :3.

On a serious note, the transition from England to USA shouldn't be too bad, I don't know much about moving countries, much less moving across the ocean, but I'm sure you will adjust fairly easily, good luck my nigga.

Not sure how much yo nigga and sup nigga flies out side of cali's bay and LA. On the bonus side America is tons bigger so there is only like 5 more things to see haha most of it is vast emptiness, but if you're on the coat tons of things to do.


Yeah, I was used to using that word in jest and complete unracistly for a long time, and when I moved to michigan some poeple would flinch when I said it, and one person started hating me for having said it a few times in front of him =O

Dude, many people believe america will be great, but honestly it sucks. I've lived here for 8 years now in Virginia. I don't live in a city or a hill billy town. But most of America is very rural except for some of the big cities. The kids in school, especially high school are racist as fuck. A bunch of kids are on drugs. 75% from my school! And people will make fun of your accent. The only thing u can do to be cool in school is to be athletic. That's the ONLY way seriously. Well gl, but I'm glad I'm getting the out of this shithole the end of August or at least by winter

The amount of women you will get because of your accent will be ridiculous.
You'll be surprised how easy it will be to get them in bed.

youll be going to virginia and then it sounds like youll be going to university based on age/schooling. may i recommend a nice city, like new york or chicago or something? boston has a lotof greast schools. no offense to virginia but spending your college years in virginia sounds eh-eh!

of course, thats totally personal taste. im a big city guy and i prefer it. plenty of people are turned off by them.

He should try to go to university in Cali, I'd rather go to school in good weather for 4+ years than say the cold of Chicago

Definitely consider Cali, too.

I wouldnt spend 4 years in Chicago but it was just an example. I WOULD spend 4 years in NY, though. Or LA or Miami or something. I'm just saying, consider big cities! From Cali to NY, we have some awesome cities to spend time in.

I know that you think America is bad, but drugs at highschool, meh, that is no different from over here. I think what you are describing goes on in most Western Countries.

Every country I've been to is like that... Even a tiny-ass country like Japan has some really really rural parts.

Even motherfuckin Taiwan, which is the size of rhode island and is mostly Taipei and Gao xiong, has a lot of rural space.

Really, your experience in America will vary greatly depending on where you are at the state, county, city, and even subdivision level. My high school was 40% asian and 60% hispanic, most people weren't racist and most people didn't do anything harder than weed. 5 miles away from my high school its 100% hispanic and all gangs and ghetto. So OP, make sure you plunk yourself down in a nice place if you're going to college. Personally I've lived on the west coast, north east, and deep south and each area has its nice aspects and each region has nice schools.

/And yes, take advantage of your British accent, it WILL get you a lot of tail.

So apparently now, Virginia = America?

Oh, and 1 school = every school?

...

Sorry you go to a crappy school, maybe that also explains why they haven't covered the material on 'stereotypes being wrong/dumb.'

I moved to the U.S. when I was 13, pre-9/11, and all my friends from Edinburgh were telling me not to do this, not to do that, don't act like this, Americans like that etc. and nothing they said was true. Can't say for Virginia, because I'm moved to Denver, but it doesn't sound too bad. 13 year old kids could really care less about your accent, some found it cool, others funny, but generally just let it be.

But you're 17 anyways, so pick your university and have fun. There are tons of exchange students everywhere so it won't be a big deal.

Wow your school sucks. Like everyone else said, don't judge America based on one school. You just happened to go to a terrible one.

America is a very very nice place. In general, people are friendly and good-intentioned.
