    South Jersey girl here (Mt. Laurel). I have to note that this thread should probably be in chit-chat and not success stories.

    I'm from South Jersey (Lumberton) and went to Rutgers New Brunswick. Then I decided to do something silly and move out of state. But I still visit often-- I'm headed up there this weekend, actually.

    So true! You can take the girl out of Jersey, but you can't take the Jersey out of the girl!
