Here are some more information for West Coast:
Contemporary art is perhaps one of the purest art forms, some say it is what art is, and that all other art is mimicking or an abstraction from contemporary art. The art of any particular era or period is indeed unique all to its own. Often, you can note the place and time of a work of art by its tell tale signs, of course it takes a connoisseur of that period to do it.
Some may not agree but the contemporary art of the late 80s was indeed, some of the best art ever produced. Many will point to artisans of Italy back in the day, and yet there was something about the 80s that brought out a new age of art, that has never been seen. Perhaps to best illustrate this observation and to see for yourself, perhaps even become lost in the art of that past period, I would like to recommend a very good art book to you:
"ARTCOAST - Contemporary Art West and East" by Robert D. Cruthers, edited by Kay Larson; Art West Publishers, Santa Monica, CA; 1989. ISBN: 1042-8178.
This book has art from Asia and America, some from Europe too, and it is a mix of all that was available. The Japanese art is finely depicted and the American artists a style all their own. There is something different about the 1980s that allowed artists to create with this style, a style that seemed to become global. Although the art in the book makes it rather obvious which country the art came from, you can see similarities, which is all too intriguing. Of course, you'll have to buy this great art book to understand.

West Coast Rainforest - A Spiritual Ecology
Here on the West Coast, the salt of circumspect washes steadily against the sea of verdure. Greening and etheric expansion prevail, the sprouting, moiling flora thrives and reproduces, roots itself into a constant crescendo. Here, none can turn away, because all directions are exposed. And none can hold in check the wheeling force that rises, anymore than the tidal range of the ocean can cease its endless respiration.
Ashore, as the eye and heart grow sated on outward effulgence, and turn within to look across the forest of soulhood, the seeker encounters a buffeting wind, ceaselessly wailing in sonic silence, blowing against all branching forces, delivering wind-in-bough-songs to a wild and vigilant audience.
In this coastal dominion we find a range of dwellers-in-habitat, from the diminutive wren, mouse-bird, in its fern-frond forest, up to old growth tree giants, who, in this ocean-edge environ, have evolved powerful rooting forces to withstand the great winds that prevail from across the waters.
In the morning light, the sea compels me to open my wings over the tide-flat of vision. By day, I will sing you a tree. I will dance you a stream. And when evening falls, I will orate for you a sunset, warmth and color twining into distant measures.
A small melodic bird spreads its wings by the seaweed leavings of the tidal bore. Song sparrow serenade, dulcet phrasing in the salt air, rises as a green-leafing melody beneath usnea whiskers, wildly bearded lichens draped on the lower reaches of conifer boughs.
And I walk slowly, with deliberation, through the sea-edge forest, where the mouse-wren flits furtive, barely sensed, in an under-story of fern and salal, through a storyline, compelling and intricate.
Here, Grandmother nature unfolds her genesis masterwork by the edge of the riffling, over the surface of the sea of allocation. Grandmother nature, in a spirit of prosperity and layers weaving, serves up an authorship penned in ink of confluence and deeply rooting provision.
And late in the night, by the same rapturous sea, but further down-coast, well beyond sunset’s quiet portal into animal dreamtime, the howling of wolves pierces the veils of primordia arranged to keep human knowing at bay.
For nine years they waited, spanning puppy-hood to elder, down through countless alpha moons. And then, as the calendar of inspiration came to wheel in full circle, now through the rain of night, the creative, wolf-born force holds no longer in abeyance.
Now the howling sings into the stirring of sleepers, into the spaces of wakening. Across the sea of freedom and imagination the wolf pack hurls its healing resonance, sound forming into a vessel that sails over the tumult heaving upon the surface of the feral and shore-less pond.
The moon stimulates the waking of our animal nature. This is why, so often at the time of full moon, insomnia is induced in those sensitive to environmental influence. Within the psyche, the moon enhances those qualities peculiar to this coastal landscape - rooting, sprawling, raining, seeping, dripping, climbing wave on wave, rolling across the soul’s beachhead. . . .
I am driven (by self) to be functional and/or creative. However, at this time I am more in need of centering myself. That is, of asking my deeper core for direction. What am I wanting to engage in, at this moment, from my center?

Anyone know any colleges or universities on the west coast with good music programs?
I love to sing and want to go to a college with a good choir and a good vocal program in general, I want to make a good choice, but I also want it to be on the west coast because I'll be closer to most of my friends. Any advice?
The music department at the University of Southern California is very good. You mentioned a good choir so I'm assuming that you're looking for a classical voice degree. I've worked with several professional singers with degrees from USC, and they were all very good. They also raved about the faculty there. Especially with voice, a great teacher goes a long way. And with USC, there are performance opportunities galore at the school and in Southern California in general. As with any school, talk to faculty members and students as well as taking a tour of the campus.
West Coast wants Delta's yard waste
Delta has tentatively agreed to a partnership with an East Ladner turf farm that had previously been at odds with the municipality. At a workshop last month, West Coast Instant Lawns presented a proposal to civic politicians that will see the 72nd Street company process Delta's organic green waste.
