Postcards From Imaginary Cities
Project 1
From Winters
Dear Kelly,
How are you?, I'm okay. It’s been a long time since we’ve talked or even seen each other.
Remember in English class when our teacher told us about that place on the mystery map that someone found 82 years ago. Well I found it and that place is called Winters.
At first I thought it was a joke, then my grandma told me she remember her father coming home and stayed up all hours trying to find something on the place. But then she told me that this was the only map that had Winters on it and nobody had ever heard of a place.
My grandma said her father did not what many people to know about it, and he said 2 generations from now a child who is born will find it, and I found it. It is here, right now, and its the place I am writing you this letter.
I know i should have told you, but I was so happy that I had to leave as soon as possible to see if it’s all real, and it is.
Its kind of like our town, but in a special way. Its totally different; its like I am living a dream.
I went to this store that has all kinds of hats. There were big ones, little ones, some were very bright, and some were shaped like animals.
I guess this is what makes winter so special. Mmmmm.

HYDROPOLIS
Hydropolis is a city which is more civilized and more advanced than any race or civilization that ever existed before it.
Thousands of years ago Hydropolis grew tired of the barbaric ways of the other Nations of Earth. So they built a dome around the City. The dome was made so strong that it could survive a direct hit from any known kind of bomb. It could also protect its inhabitants from any natural disaster.
Then one day Hydropolis dissapeared from the face of the Earth, plunged under the oceans by great floods. It has stayed under water ever since then.
Now The ironic thing is that now, under the water, Hydropolonians are truly living in peace, secretly hidden from the barbaric ways of Earth.
Visions of a Future Earth
Project 2
The
Fate Of
The World
All civilizations have their own theory of what the future holds for this Planet.
The way society is going, I believe we will most likely destroy ourselves. We are giving too much power to computers of our own creation.
Someday ,it may be possible that these computers take control of Humankind. A good argument for this theory is that humans have continually made computers smarter and smarter each day.
Apart from that, there is too much greed in the world, not just for money but also humankind’s lust for power. Eventually this lust may destroy us.
Many countries are always trying to get ahead in the arms race. No matter what new weapons are discoverd, there will allways be a weapon retaliate it. So far we are very fourtunate that there has never been a Nucular Holocaust . Funnily enough, the only thing that has stopped this from happening is the fact that goverments of the World fear retaliation.
Maybe Nature itself will destroy this planet. We are using all of Mother Earth’s resources. Someday, we will not have all the luxeries this planet offers us now.
Maybe we may not destroy ourselves, maybe there will be a revolution, a revolution that will make THIS planet more peaceful, make it a place where you don’t have to worry about being persecuted for what you believe in. That is what I would like to dream about.
Only time will tell If this dream becomes a reality.
