Watch out So Cal, here i come[IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/IMG] I am finally getting out of this god forsaken city! I am gonna take a little drive down I-10. Its gonna be hard to get lost. I hop on it here and take it all the way down till i hit I-8. I am moving to San Diego for school. I have a friend out there right now. Anyways, if you guys could give me a "whats up?" with San Diego. Where the best places to live are for the most moderate prices etc. I am looking for a place kind of centralized. I really don't know how San diego is set up, but i'm looking for a 1 bedroom apartment kinda close to SDSU, the beaches, and if there is a big restaurant district as I will probably be working as a waiter while i'm in school. Are there any really bad ass restaurants you would suggfest where i'd make a lot of money?
Any info you guys can throw me would be awesome. Thanks alot guys!

What's up dude- I'm in San Diego. Sounds like your in the College Area. It's OK, I live in Pacific Beach, right next to the bay. San Diego has all these "sections" i.e. Pacific Beach, Ocean Beach, college area, Linda Vista, the list goes on and on. Once you get here you'll figure it out. My girlfriend works at a restaurant but had a hard time finding a waitress job at first. It's kinda rough getting a good paying job out here. Everything is pretty expensive, but it's so worth it, this place is the best. So many hot chicks, tons of stuff to do. Let me know when you get here, I'll show ya around. Later-
how spread out is all the areas? i'm just looking for something centralized. 10 min away from sdsu is good. any good apartmnnt complexes? any to stay away from?
Just try not to get in a long lease, or a lease at all. There are so many sections/complexes/prices you'll have to check out in person when you get here. San Diego is really huge, but the "sections" are next to each other. Mexico is only 15 miles from here too. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
Any place by the beach is gonna run u some cash. If ur going to SDSU and want to work in a restaruant I suggest u move into the North Park area its reasonably priced. Not to far from downtown/gas lamp area. U could also work in hillcrest there are a lot of restaruants there. Any where really close SDSU u would probably have to move in with someone who already has a place. There are always people looking for roommates. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
how far is north par area from the coast? what is gas lamp district? is it like the club/bar strip? I'm not looking for too close to sdsu. like i said, 10-15 min. at the most though.. anyone else have any input? oh, and do you know if your girlfriend needed a resume to get a job as a waitress? Some areas are like that, not here though.
North Park 2 coast is about 10 mins, maybe less. The Gaslamp district is downtown, it's the "dress up and go out to eat" section of downtown San Diego. You'll see what gaslamps are when you get here. My GF didn't need a resume to get a waitress job. I don't think you need a resume if your only looking to wait tables. If your not surte where you want to live, there are hotel/apts that charge by the week. You could stay there first, or even in a hostle until you decide where to live. Let me know if you want me to get you some info on them.
i have a friend who's wife is in navy. he is looking for places for me. he stays on base. looks like the plan is going to be to have my stuff shipped to his place and stay there for a couple days till i figure it all out.

Yeah I have thought about moving to SD or LA around there but with this job market right now I can't get a job in my field anywhere. But I hear good things about SD, but the usual expensive, just like California in general. Phoenix is getting about the same way when I moved out of there, but CALI is really nice bet the girls are really good looking and nicer than the AZ girls LOL [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
