When your state looks like you

This was awesome! I love the states. Have you read Fifty States of Crazy? I recommend it. Anyways, awesome job!

*impatient Floridian noises*

So does Wisconsin come by arguing sportsball with Illinois or talking environment with Minnesota?

This is a FANTASTIC fic and you could go SO many different places with it. I really like how you've balanced out the number of male and female states, and are perpetuating their stereotypes to the absolute max. XD I've been reading over a few other comments, and they seem to be full of interesting ideas to incorporate (especially the one about Cali. and Texas hating each other, which is genius). I think it would be awesome to have Alabama and Louisiana always arguing about football (Bama v. LSU is a HUGE rivalry) and at each others throats. And Louisiana could definitely have a voodoo doll on them or something, and even slip into Cajun French every now and then. Florida could be teased about, well, you know what many people consider Florida to be on America's body, lol. Nevada could have some connection to casinos, maybe dressing up kind of blingy or always trying to gamble and make bets on things. Hawaii could reference a lot to Polynesian cultures and/or superstitions, and Alaska could be really unused to heat. These are just a few things that popped out my brain, and I look forward to whatever you decide to write no matter what! :)

Cute! Statalia is always awesome :)

Can I give you an idea on how Texas should look? Yes? Okay then! In my mind, Texas should be female, with dark brown hair and blue eyes. The dark brown hair comes from her Spanish/Mexican heritage, and the blue eyes from America. She can be kind of loud, loves beer and football, and overall acts like a boy, despite being a girl. Is that helpful?

bring in washington who i think is a boy with california (girl).
wash is tall levelheaded brown hair with brown eyes
cali is very tall blonde hair blue eyes with a temper that doesnt come quick like Americas
btw where is the dad? late? merica isnt actually late that often

Ms. South Carolina,
I would like to say that 100 heat and 80% is not that bad. Where I live it is 112 heat and 99%. Every day. Except 2 days of winter.

Washington state is girl, in a red flannel long sleeve shirt, with a white undershirt and a large apple over her chest, blue jeans, Apple earrings, straw hat on top of a head of dirty blond hair which has a large braid. Has brown eyes and is an otaku(anime nerd). maybe some apple motifs on her pants, kinda laidback. Sometimes out of it due to being high from marijuana. And is a great cook, but not fancy, loves making apple pie or applesauce for the others. Is best friends with British Columbia and sometimes puts applesauce on the (special) brownies they bake together.

So, by the way, you will be receiving some anonymous reviews on your stories. They're from me. I don't have an account, but I feel the need to review. For the record, I live in Oregon. Some things to know. 1. He/she was probably one of the closest states to Native America. (Since the Oregon trail took place sometime in the 1860s, and was previously mainly inhabited by Native Americans) 2. He/she won't complain about the heat. (We tend to have very high or very low temperatures here in Oregon, nearly always accompanied by some form of moisture, but we Oregonians take it as fact and in stride, although we rarely get snow, at least here in Portland, so that is definitely a cause for celebration if we get it high enough for a snow day.) 3. Mountains. We can see at least one at practically all times, no matter where you are. Not really sure how you'd classify that, except maybe not being scared of or in awe of heights. I hope this helps, and, as ever, update!

Could you do Texas? I imagine her as a girl(I do live there) with blonde hair(from America), green eyes(from Spain) tanned from being in the sun and pretty tall, looking about nineteen, always wears a cowboy hat and boots and jeans.

I love your stories. I can give you some info on Minnesota. We have the highest population of people with a Nordic heritage although we also have a high German one. The Dakota and Ojibwe tribes both we in Minnesota. We are known to be Minnesota nice and that is true. It is normal to strike up a half an hour conversation with a complete stranger. I have heard that we are the most hipster state. We are also very outdoorsy, one of our cites, Duluth, was rated the best outdoor friendly city in the US. We have cold winters -30 with windchill and nice summers that can get up into the high 80s. Our favorite sport is hockey. We say stuff like ya know, uffda, you bettchya. We have a very big rivalry with Wisconsin that stretches from our sports teams, particularly football, to anything. Many Minnesotans have a cabin where we fish, waterski(which was invented in this state) and many other things. I believe MN became a state in 1858 or at least around that time, after Wisconsin and around the same time as California. We also have very close relationships with Canada and its provinces. I hope this helps. I can give more info if you need. Keep up the good work.

next do texas and arizona

Umm I could tell you about Washington (State)...
Washington speciality is apples but has a lot of other fruits like cherries and grapes. Washington also has bipolar weather, one minute being sunny the next rainy. Western Washington is more of the rainy Seattle and city people side while eastern is the farmers/suburb side. Rock/grunge is rather seen here. Washington also is rather close to Alaska, Oregon and BC, Canada, and also close to California and Hawaii. Washington would also be involved in computers/electrionics with Microsoft headquarters being in Washington as well as music and science for te pacific science center and the emp. He/she would also be involved in the West Coast vs East Coast argument. People from Washington are rather cool headed people and stubborn about things they care about. He/She would now many Asian languages (Chinese, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean etc.) as well as a couple Native languages, African, and German.
-Nickname: The evergreen state
-Space Needle
-Cascades (mountains)
-Mount Rainer/Mt. Saint Helens
-A lot of malls (Alderwood, Seattle Outlet mall, etc.)
-Beaches and lakes (Lake Chelan, Long Beach,WA, etc.)
Also if you are 21 you can buy joint legally... and Starbucks is from Washington and anime is rather known here (Sakura con, random festivals from collages.)
Hope these random facts help!
