Actually, I think it's the opposite! lol I just live about twenty minutes away from there, and I went there for a youth options class. =P Plus like, all of my teachers graduated from there or Whitewater, and a good portion of my (former) classmates are going there.

Personally, I enjoy Racine and Action Territory (I just like the Go-Karts =B), and so do my friends, but I don't know everyone else's opinions; I agree though, there isn't much to do in Kenosha. There's the movie theater and the drive-in, some local doodads, and not much else. If all else fails you can go to a corn field. There's enough of those to make the world go 'round.

And hey, I just thought of something else. Since you're close enough, you can suggest a get together with some friends and possibly their friends to go to Six Flags, maybe for Fright Fest. It's in Gurnee, IL, and is only about a twenty minute drive, not even. I have no doubt that would go over well, although some people might not have the money. Obviosuly you can't go there everyday, but it could be a good weekend thing. Unless you don't like rollercoasters. =P

Yeah, the facebook thing was odd to me. In high school, I only added people I actually liked and talked to (crazy concept, I know). Now, everyone and their mother adds you, and it's a good way to start to get to know people, maybe make plans for lunch, exchange a phone number, etc. Just make sure you join the Parkside network, so people don't think some random creep is adding them (although they might approve you anyway). I would definitely get one if you feel it would help you make friends.
