I had an internship out there in Southern California 2011-2012 that was supposed to last for a year but I bailed out after 5 months

Sounds like you're more of a quitter than anything else. No place is miserable enough where you would absolutely have to leave five months in. You have barely scratched the surface of a city in only five months.

Internship started at 7:30am but I had to leave my housing at 5:30am because it was about 1.5-2 hours of traffic each morning, same with going back, traffic

Don't know where you lived but this sounds like a mistake on your part. I live in LA and it takes me 15 minutes to get to and from work.

if you want to use a debit or credit card there is a fee.

Not true at all.

1 bedroom 750 sq feet apartment will run you $1500,

Again don't know where you lived but you got screwed. Especially if you weren't exaggerating about your commute to work which would place you in the cheaper suburbs. My house is $1700 a month and I'm in LA. That's two bedrooms and 1800 square feet.

Weather sucks. In California its pretty much the same weather every day and it gets boring

Okay, yeah you are either trolling or a miserable person.
quote:

Mexicans... EVERYWHERE. Whites are a minority for sure.

And racist too. You said you lived in Texas. There are plenty there also.
quote:

The people who live there are pretty arrogant too. I didn't get along with a lot of the people at my internship.

Hmmm... I wonder why?

I love quite a bit about California. San Diego, Orange County, the central coast, Monterrey, certain parts of San Francisco, most of the bay area, Napa/Sonoma...love all of it. I was really blown away by how much I liked Orange County. I expected to completely hate it and ended up really liking it. San Diego and Monterrey are incredible.

Los Angeles, though, sucks donkey balls. If you took Los Angeles out of California, I don't know if I could find fault in the state.
