Buffalo! 15 minutes from the Honeymoon Capital of the World.

Nice! You are a true upstate girl, not like me. I only say upstate to indicate I'm not from NYC, in truth I am pretty damn close to Pennsylvania. xD

I am a Western New Yorker born and raised. My parents are from the Finger Lakes. New York is in my bones. Also Michigan and Florida, but mostly New York. I have never been to NYC though.

ROFL. I live right on the PA/NY border and the people from NY say they are upstate.

the whole damn world assumes the city when you say you're from NY! and when you're from a tiny-ass town, you can't really say, "Oh, I'm from Jeffersonville!" like people from, idk, Albany or Rochester might. :(

I have this conversation a lot:

Me: I am from New York.
Person: OOH! Awesome!
Me: Buffalo, New York
Person: .....Oh.
Me: Right near Niagara Falls.
Person: OOH!
Me: Yeah, I've never actually been to New York City.
Person: Wtf is wrong with you?
