Life in the city is always exciting. There are more than a million people in the city where I live. There are street fairs and sidewalk vendors downtown.

But in the city, there are many more concerts, lectures, theatrical performances, and other kinds of entertainment. Most of those things are expensive, and I can’t afford to go. Because of the curfew, young people aren’t allowed on the streets at night, and I usually have a lot of homework.
