2:49 NY

Now, i would really like to talk about New York, i´ve almost lived here for 5 months and well...at the begining everything is incredible, everything just fascinates you. For the first time you see new people looking at the sky, the other people and just looking how the buildings fight to conquer the sky, and thinking like...this is huuuuge, somo of my friends were completely tourist in NYC and i started to notice how this city changes a lot because of the different type of people that lives or works or just walks each part of the city. Each part of the town is so different, residential neighborhood that just have that kind of grocery and helpful stores, all opened 24h for the awaked. Then Midtown, full of stores, just complete esence of capitalism, hotels and skycrapers made of glass and steel, NY is so changeful, you can see an artist fascinated with the abstract world drinking a beer next to a finances guy that is hoping to earn more money and spend it all... then walking to the south you can start to see how some newyorkers start to express themselves, the south is where the people have their own little revolution, they do not want to be compared, they do not want to be sold to the public, but at the end, is NewYork and all the world loves it, so they are completely sold to the world, the smartest try to take part in it but they have to fight with new companies that are completely dominating the city.


NewYorkers empiezan a expresarse, all of this is combined with the kind of people that just do not give a shit about this, about the different cultures and religion, i have just been smashed of how many Jewish live in this city...more than a lot, combined with Chinese and with Midle East, and in their own countries some of their "brothers" are fighting betwen'em(American, Jewish, Iranian....) can't believe it. "Crash" is a must film. I just wanted to talk about this because i´ve been walking this week in the street with my eyes openned and also because i talked a lot about USA with some guys of our age or around and their thoughts surprised me a lot. We talked about their culture and country and for Ben, his city. Well, i'll keep talking about this more intensive in another post and other night,im just feelling tired and im going to bed.
