THE PERFECT WORLD

 Seahaven can be related to New York itself. Of course, we live in a big city with crowded and littered streets not in a suburban area, but we all are followed and watched by hundreds of cameras every day. We don’t think about or realize it, but based on our credit cards, phones and Internet anyone can be capable of interfering with our social and personal life. I once watched a television show where one volunteer agreed to give access to her credit cards and Facebook account. I was surprised on how much information someone can pull out. For example where you were born, how many children do you have, what’s your favorite music, food and many other personal information. The easiest way to track someone down is through a phone. Many don’t notice that communication devices have a location application built in which helps them be located by many individuals. So how is our world different than Cristof’s? The only difference is that my neighbors aren’t so friendly, and we all don’t live in beautiful houses.

If I had the chance to choose between Cristof’s world and the world that I live in now I would choose Cristof’s. I would rather live in a world where people are nice to each other, have jobs and where there is no place for sickness and homelessness, where you don’t have to worry that you are going to loose your job or someone from your family will die of cancer. The Seahaven life can be compared to the American Dream. Everyone is happy and there is no wrong. The actors and actresses appear to lead a perfect life. This is the life I would like to live even though nothing or no one is perfect. Besides what’s wrong with an ideal sunset every day?
