Cosign, there is no need to change the way you talk or what you do. Of course people from other places are going to have their own slang, but all you should do is be yourself. I'm from Cali also and I use hella and hecka and that's not going to change because I'm relocating somewhere else. Only time you need to care about not using your slang is when you're in your English class.
