Welcome, to the Capital of Capitalism

A Fresh Look At The Big Apple

7/14/2011, Roosevelt Island

It’s my very first time keeping a blog,

Thanks to NY.

4 days after leaving the JFK airport,

I see, I walk, and I eat in the Big Apple.

Frankly speaking, I prefer Paris to Manhattan.

Last Year,

Wandering through the arrondissements of Paris,

I could sense its abundant history and culture.

Walking down the streets of London,

I was stunned by its spirit and cleanness.

Now,

Riding on NYC subways,

I see dirty, danger and coldness.

While promenading on the avenues,

I see extravagance and pressure.

That’s my comment for the City so far.

Honestly, I was depressed.

I dreamed of coming here about a million times.

Friends, Sex and the City, Skyscrapers, Fantastic night views…

Seem to be more wonderful in the movies.

The reality is,

Money counts, talks, and rules all.

Welcome, to the Evil Empire, Capital of Capitalism.
