I am a Jersey girl. Yeah I go down the shore in the summer - pictures of me on those rides as a kid. Parking so far to park for free and schlepping to the sand. We went to the city because we knew we wouldn't get carded and lied our butts off about to our folks - be home late, going to see Rocky Horror. Yeah I have an accent but not Bergen County, Somerset, by way of Hudson-what!
I wear jeans and Chucks, I shop at Old Navy. I don't die for animal print and I'm not tan year round. I don't own hairspray and go with no makeup. I am a Jersey girl.The malls blow, traffic sucks and if you can't drive you don't belong here. I'm not screechy and whinny I'm sassy and sweet.I do not listen to house music or dance at the club, I go to PNC in the summer and Starland year round. I got my hair cut at Gatsby before it was a show. I never drive the turnpike or the parkway - it's 22 and 78. I go rafting down the Delaware, walks through the reservation. don't cause a scene. My friends are true. Yes, this girl's Italian, I'll give you that one, but we don't make sauce every Sunday and my dad doesn't come to the table in a Ginny t to the table. But that's a story all in it's own. I am a Jersey girl and we're not all what it seems. I love being a Jersey girl and work damn hard to afford to live here.
