In Which Life is not SimCity: Washington Square and the Austrian Connection

Good morning, dear friend! Here I return with some more thoughts and ideas about urban planning and so on. I tend to avoid writing so much all at once, but it cannot be helped as I had this idea in mind, I would love to share! Of course, I want first to ask how are you, how are things? As for me, I am a bit fatigued, but not too bad. I pray and hope today can be productive, I want to make some effort and go deliver some documents at the school and hopefully I may find if I can have an internship or not. The weather is miserable, summer ends with a strong and unbearable moist heat, the worst kind. Hope you are havinf a better temperature time today. With that being said, would love to explore this thought I had, as follows: I think I could have mentioned before, I am reading this excellent book by the writer Jane Jacobs, Death and Life of Great American Cities, and it got me thinking that simulation games have really little to do with real life, have they? I say this as a person that lo...

In which we talk about the Empire State Dream

Good morning dear reader and I wish you the best! How are you today and how are things going? Again, I wish you the best, and hope everything is fine with you! As for me, I'm okay, just waking up so far! Drank my daily capuccino, and I am enjoying the colder weather!I mean, just 26C/79F, not too cold though! And how is the weather where you are? Like I said, quite a nice day where I live, clouds and cold wind, I mean, give me some credit, I live in the tropics lol, anyway, let's jump into this crazy dream I had, that happened in New York!


In this very realistic dream, I was in New York City paying a visit, a city I am fond of, because of how beautiful the buildings there are. Or anyway, used to be fond of, it intimidates me for the most part, plus I am not too fond on the mood that the city was ingulfed in on the last years or so.... I went as far as I could on my actual thoughts on my Madonna post, where I rambled about how I have a complicated relationship with her American Life album, I'm afraid I give her too much credit even, I should just ignore those people. Anyway, back to the dream. Very confusing it was, because at one moment I was at the house of my grandparents, eating tasteless cake and dreaming about bombons on the coffee machine, on the other I was visiting the Empire State Building, that was on the wrong place there even, next to the Washington Square Park, in Greenwich Village, not on Midtown as it was supposed to be! And what's worse, there were so many things at that place, it was an apartment building, it was filled with stores, at a point it was the Hotel I was spending my time, even if my actual hotel was right nearby the Empire State, so odd indeed.Also, so many fancy decoration and wonderfully rich and goodly dressed people, I was so happy t be around such splendor! I met some people in my dream, DoorMonster was there via videos on the phone as well, and my former friend Kryssia Appeared too, which was an unwelcomed guest, I have to say. Anyway, and a mall also appeared on the dream, at least its parking lot. It was a dream about locations above all else, as we can see! Anyway, this is it for today, my friend, just sharing this confusing dream with you all! I bid you farewell and I see you on the next post, that will be coming HOPEFULLY very soon!
