When someone asks you what kind of music you listen to, what do you say? Most of the time, it seems that people respond with an "oh I listen to a little bit of everything." But if you ask a country fan, they declare their love loud and proud, even if they listen to other genres. I'm one of those country fans. Love me some guitar-pickin' twang! I'm from a bit of a smaller town and didn't think it was too hick until I came to Dallas. I thought that I'd be overwhelmed with accents, cowboy hats, and wranglers. This is not the case. My town is so much more "country" than a city in Texas. I was prepared to find the boy with the biggest belt buckle and most cattle, but I know more FFA kids at home. But that's Dallas for ya. I won't be attending too many bonfires out by the creek or ever have a chance to go giggin' (unless it's for some purple horned frogs!). There are advantages to living in a small town, but now that I've experienced a big city with a skyline and 4 lane highways, I don't think I'll ever leave. The opportunities are endless here. If I stayed at home, I'd still be working at a minimum wage job and probably lose all my ambition to be anyone. I'd never end up leaving! The only thing I really miss is that good, country, hometown feel (and of course my mom and dad!). Now Dallas just needs to get a few more country radio stations...
