　　Todd: Oh, OK.

　　Rina: And thats, my town is between Regina and Saskatoon., called the midway town.

　　Todd: Whats it like growing up in a very small rural setting?

　　Rina: It was awesome. My parents, because they immigrated from Lebanon were very strict with me so I really wasnt allowed to do very much until I was about in grade 11, when my brother was old enough to come with me, but it was, once I was able to start going out and going to dances and things like that I loved it.

　　Todd: Oh, really, even in your small town?

　　Rina: In my small town, yeah. Cause I had it, I was very close with a lot of, like a very small class, very very close with a lot of people there, yeah.

　　Todd: No.

　　Rina: No, its not, its, Ive developed a lot more since I was that age and its just not the same anymore. Id like a bigger center, preferably Vancouver, or Montreal, on one of the coasts. Yeah. So.

　　Todd: Not Toronto?

　　Rina: No, Im not a big fan of Toronto.

　　Todd: Ah, why?

　　Rina: Because Im a little jaded. When I was, in 94, we went to Niagara Falls, and we drove through Toronto and it was just so, it looked so busy and smoggy and just crazy, and so I never really liked it since then. I have that image in my head still of that.

　　Todd: Yeah, well, thats how I feel about L. A.

　　Rina: Yeah.

　　Todd: Yeah. I dont like Los Angeles. OK, well thanks.
