I've been thinking about city life. and city people.

What defines as a real city person.
Some people are in the city for merely practical reasons. They live here, the go to school here. It doesn't mean they actually want to be here.

It makes me smile inside when someone says that everyone wants to be somewhere else because I feel like they're missing out on the city.
They don't know how it's like to genuinely like streets, check-points, passports, ID cards - how it's like to own up to that kind of life and connect to the architecture like someone connected to the sea.
