Serene Saturday


Hello people!! *wink*
It's mellow Saturday, the weather is not as good as it can be. It was supposed to be summer, but somehow it's so gloomy and of course, the coldness is unbeatable! It seems like autumn, instead of beautiful summer day!

Anyway, I am not going to tattle and babble more about the weather, I have a great news to tell!! I got a house!! A house of my own. No sharing. It will be me, and just me!! How ironic?!! *another wink*




I went for the viewing yesterday evening, and to be honest... I am quite nervous. I wonder why. Usually, the advert on the website of home hunting, will show you the picture of the house, but this particularly one is without. And usually, I would be a bit turned off with it, since I can't really see how it looks like, and just depends on the sentence they put in to describe it. But, I went anyway.

It turned out to be such a classy house, an apartment unit, on the fourth floor. A descent one bed apartment, with ample space for one, eh, no no... more people. It's huge for one person to live in. Seriously.

Let me describe it here, anyway. It has quite a big bedroom, then a descent living room, a dining (separated from the living), a compact kitchen, but honestly it's nice... and of course a bathroom with a bath, quite huge. Then, the best bit of it, it has a HUGE balcony from the living room connecting to the bedroom! And every evening, I can see the sun set as the sun shine from the balcony, and it will make the whole house stir with golden shine of the sunshine itself. It's unbelievably beautiful!

I got the house, even though the fact that I can only move in by the end of the month, as I will be going for vacation next week, and by end of the month only I will get paid. Of course I pulled out that Puss in Boots face, and the innocent vibes just spread accross my face, and even though the landlady knows that she will lose about 2 weeks rent, she agreed! I am so happy, beyond excitement!!!

Therefore, I will be moving in on the 27th June!!! Can't wait. Now that the home-hunting is over (and ended up with such a beautiful house), I am beyond happy!! Now I can basically concentrate on my holidays. Aaaah... bliss!!

Happy Saturday, everyone!



P/S: My birthday countdown, 4 more days to go!! (today's included).

Defining Moments


It has been a busy weekends for me. Was too busy looking for a new house, in Dublin. Seriously. Everything here is so expensive, and you have to be as quick and wicked as a squirrel to get a good home to stay. Sigh.


Been looking and viewing few places now. Had few good ones, as well as bad ones too. I could not really choose which one, exactly... as it is confusing. You have to have the money on hand to get grip on the house that you really really like, to book them. And I don't even know and confirm as yet, which one to choose, and when to move out. But definitely either middle or end of July. I think.

It has been a torturing moment.


Been talking to my mom, and she said she would think that a good house with a good space, and not that expensive would be the right choice. It would be. But would be a burden to find one. Mostly, when you called, the answer would be, "... it's gone."


I am thinking about the holiday, as well as when to move out, then... of course of which range of rent would be good. It is all, confusing. And stressful as well. Sigh. Why can't it be as easy as it could?





I have seen this one house, yesterday. That I really, really like. Its a house, with a spiral stairs lead to a mezzanine floor double bedroom. It's class. Posh in a way. But, it is only up to the owner to decide who will be suitable to get the house. I am so devastated. I thought I really want the house, but today... I am thinking about it, and thought that I can have a nice one bed, modern apartment... the same price as that. Speaking of being a Gemini, and a fickle minded girl? Is just making things more difficult.


I'll have a look again these coming few days, I'd say... and only then I will decide. As if I can make the decision. Sigh.


Wish me luck! :)
