I don't think that you should have been ashamed of your accent, and I don't think that any accent is trashy. Nor do I think that efforts should be made to change them. They are interesting and I'm glad they exist. I think it would be pretty boring if we all spoke exactly the same.

I'm from northern New Jersey and I also say coffee as "Cawwwfee". Fifteen years in South Carolina hasn't changed that, and I'm glad.
