born in brooklyn in 1981 (long island college hospital, over on atlantic av, by the BQE)

 

raised in wakefield, bronx... ft. greene, brooklyn... and east flatbush, brooklyn....

(majority of my life has been here as a resident in east flatbush; over 25 yrs....)

 

 

to be honest, I'm lookin to move the hell out of here... not b/c it's so dangerous (quote-unquote), it's just time for a change.... I'm quite bored & fed up with the (growing) belligerence of the people here, the lack of variety of eateries (nothin but chinese food & west indian bakeries/restaurants), and a whole host of other things that I don't want to bother marring the thread with....

I was born in The Bronx(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(9) in 1974(not too sure where?) moved to Queens, (7)Jackson Heights when I was a few months old, about six months later moved to (J)Woodhaven where I grew up at. I went to school in Queens from K to 9th Grade finished my 3 years of high school in PA, went on to college in Providence, RI for 2 years, then moved back to PA for a few years, and then moved back to (J)Woodhaven, NY in April of 98 been there since. During the years that I was attending school out of state I did my best to come visit my family, and friends in NY. I remember 20 years ago that the fare to take a (NYCT)bus or train was only $1.00, and it hiked up to $1.15 no such thing as metrocards yet, but tokens at the time.

Lol. I feel you on the chinese food and west indian bakeries/restaurants. Thats all you will ever find in Flatbush/East Flatbush aka "The Carribean Heart & Soul of Brooklyn". Whenever my mom goes to her docter's appointment (which is in a Jewish neighborhood) she buys a few cookies from their bakery. Emmm, emmm, good!

I have always within 2 minutes walking distance of the 145 Street (A) (:((C)(D) Station. From September 1984 to September 1998, I lived close to the north side of the station in an apartment building. Since September 1998, I live close to the south side of the station in a brownstone. This area has changed so much for the better since I moved in 1998. I should get ready to move in September 2012...

 

P.S. If you are wondering how the heck I like the Phillies, click here...

damn, lol it looks sooo much more advanced. but i am surprised to see all those house with solar energy

 

That's a new trend here for 10 years, every new house has a solar cell because the gov gives you a part of the money for it.

 

Oh it's not high advanced, Mönchengladbach has a high unemployment rate;)

I was raised in Osaka, but mostly raised in Miyazaki, with my grandmother.

My grandmother change my last name to Nagayama.
