Research For My Book

So, what do you like about cities?

(If your answer is "nothing", that's fine, but I'll ask what people hate about cities in another entry sometime.)

Also, if you didn't grow up in a city, what was your first impression on the first time you entered one?

Thank'ee . :D

Seconded.
Also, the lights (although that wouldn't really apply much in the time your talking about, in the way I mean when I say that.)
But there is something appealing about feeling like merely one of a multitude, of knowing that behind all those windows, life is going on, even though you are only an observer, if that...it fires the imagination while making me feel part of something much, much greater than myself.
Hee. You'd think I loved cities, the way I'm writing, and you wouldn't be wrong...but I would never, ever live in one. And I'd never go back to the near-suburbs, either, which is where I grew up.
Thinking about going in...it was always the lights and the symmetry that caught me. It still is, actually. :)
