Interesting, your life seems like it was more interesting (but worse 3: ) than mine. Good thing that you're alright now. And really good art. ^^

Interesting really isn't the word for it...the word I choose is probably "Crappy".

Anything different for me is interesting. I just wonder what it must have been like.

wow
that's a pretty alleyway. All my alleys are filled with little bits of broken glass, garbage, and weeds.
This one's not to shabby though.

Usually it's too cold for weeds to grow, and people usually dump all the garbage out at this time of year. But yeah there's generally not too much trash but the buildings are all really old and have weird things attached to them.

huh. Cool, another thing I noticed is that this alleyway seems to be in between houses, while ours are bigger and more open, the kind cars can and do drive through. I guess this is just a different type of alley.

sorry I have no idea why I've taken an interest in alleys all of the sudden.

Aye it's fine, this picture was based on the place I use to live, some slummy part of rural China. Real crappy place, no electricity and only one house had water. People build out their own houses and add extensions so the entire place is an architectural nightmare, there some alleyways so narrow where a slightly overweight person probably can't even walk through. Also in this place any road big enough for a car to go through is referred to as "the big road".

wow, that's an interesting set up. I can imagine how fucked up that'd be.
