As much as I want to love being where I am, in a well-ordered, culturally invigorating city with little laneways and everything within walking distance from everything else, I feel claustrophobic.

I shouldn't be saying this as a student architect and/or urbanist but I want my car back. I want to drive aimlessly on elevated highways, gaze upon city skylines, get lost on ring roads and sleep in the backseat while my parents drive like a vehicular lullaby. Give me a gas-guzzler in the place of trams, long winding boulevards in the place of grid city roads, and maybe (just maybe) Manly beach instead of St. Kilda.
