MDW in NJ vs St.Aug

My senior year of high school was one of the best years of my life filled with going out to lunch with friends, skating, partying, and not much stress about school. Our whole grade pretty much got along. There were clicks but I managed to be friends with all of them. I hung out with everyone not staying in one crew. At the beginning of the year we all decided that all the guys in are graduating class should rent out a place in Seaside Height's New Jersey. Now this was way before the show on MTV "Jersey Shore" was ever on. We were just normal kids living in North New Jersey going down the shore for Memorial Day Weekend.
Throughout the year MDW was heard all over the halls. I went to a school with a bunch a tools. They were my friends but they were for sure tools. Going tanning, getting Brooklyn Fade haircut's, getting their eye brows waxed and going to the gym everyday. A bunch of them took steroid's 3 months before MDW just so they look extra jacked down the shore. They would walk around the halls with gallons of un-distilled water because apparently it makes your veins come out. Chugging protein and No-Explode in the middle of class just so their not wasting any time out of the gym.
Once we got down to Seaside we had this huge condo place rented out with almost all the guys in are grade. There were a couple different rooms with the different clicks. The jocks, the guidos, the stoners, the awkward s, and us. Well hey maybe we were the awkward s but who knows. All I know is every day I would wake up surf from 11:00 to 3:00 come back to the place and our room would be packed with girls and beer. I would take my wetsuit off and funnel a few beers. The jocks and guido's had a bench outside and weights and would be working out the whole time talking about how big they are and flex for the women that walked by. This was one of the best weekends of my life, filled with women, best friends and the beach. We all knew this would be one of the last times we were all going to be together so we cherished it. Still to this day we all talk about how good MDW of 2008 was and how it will never be the same.
Now can you picture anyone acting like this in a town like St. Augustine?
