Losing your accent is so easy as a child.
When I was four I moved to San Francisco (briefly) and by the end of my 6 months or what ever it was over there, I had an American / Californian accent. The video of me as a little kid is hilarious. But when I moved back, the English accent came back fairly quickly. Actually, I spent about 4 days in Nottingham recently and I started saying "glass" and "grass" like they do instead of my posh-ish "glarss" and "graarss" type accent. Maybe I'm just malleable?
and Worcester is Center Mass... to bostonians everything west is Western Mass, but like Katy said, to anyone in the real western part of the state, Worcester is Eastern Mass. kind of like how in NY there's a big debate about what counts as upstate.
Got it. Makes perfect sense.
