Highs and lows of my neighbourhood

Pollution, accoustic contamination, people, rats, lights, smoke... It's that I feel right now... I'm living in this moment in the center of Santiago. When I came here to Santiago I used to live in Ñuñoa, but I have been living in this place for 3 years.

I never thought that I would really live here, my parents are living in the south, in Angol, a very small city, very quiet and whitout many people, I think that was a very high expectation to come to Santiago, the big city, very fast, with a lot of diverse culture, totally different to the I usually was living, but I'm here... and what I can say... I don't like it. I lost me relaxed life of neighbourhood, the people that live here usually don't greet, I don't know who lives next door, the streets are dirty most of the time, companies are building hight buildings everywhere, the contamination doesn't let me see the beauty of the mountains on the sunny day and the stars at night, I'm stuck! 

But I survive, I take my helmet and I go to the University the fastest that I can in my bike, fortunatelly i don't have to ride a lot, and that is very important point and the best of living here, the proximity to anywhere. I need to eat something and I walk, I need to buy something and I walk again, but i don't know if I really like it or just don't dislike it.

I sound a very negative person, but i'm not, only my neighbourhood isn't like as I dreamed. I'm very happy here in Santiago, because I have the opportunity to made many activities that don't exist in small towns.
