The simple life

City life is easy.
You're bored. So you go out and pay someone to entertain you.
You're ticked off. So you blow off some steam by going for a long walk and lose your troubles in a sea of humanity.
After supper you realize that you've run out of milk for breakfast. So you shop at your local convenience store.
You finally received that cheque in the mail. So you make plans to stop at the bank tomorrow.
You're throwing a dinner party. So you make a mental note to avoid sensitive topics like politics.

On Mayne Island life is sometimes a challenge.
You're bored. So you are forced to tax your brain attempting to find a way to entertain yourself.
You're ticked off. So you know not to go for a walk chances are you'll run into someone who'll want to talk.
After supper you realize that you've run out of milk for breakfast. Well you'll just have to make eggs and hash browns because the grocery store won't open until 9 am.
You received a cheque in the mail. You look at the calendar: just when can you make an off-island run to the bank?
You're throwing a dinner party. So you make a mental note to avoid sensitive topics like politics, blackberry bushes, and talking about this guy...
...which life would you choose?
