Home Sweet Home.

It was just yesterday that I first laid eyes on it.

And today I've placed a booking on the biggest purchase in my 24 years of life!! It came all so suddenly, just like the starting point of our plan for marriage. Honestly, these sudden occurences is happening quite frequently lately and its fast becoming a little difficult for me to comprehend. I think its mainly due to ME being the type of person who normally takes much factors into consideration before finally coming to a conclusion or decision. Influence from working as a developer, perhaps. I somehow felt as though I'm losing control of everything, the sense of security and stability in life is slowly lacking. Or maybe its withdrawal symptoms from being pulled out of a safe and comfort zone.

Anyway, let me tell you that this purchase is really, really, really random since we've planned to do it only a few years later, judging from our current financial capabilities. But without realizing it, after a string of unlikely events which just happened yesterday and on this very day itself, we ended up with an official receipt in our hands and much, much poorer. Like how we were looking at unfavourable lots initially, then how a superb lot became available as we got to know that a friend of an individual whom we just met today decided to do a cancellation. At a cheaper price! And also an alternative plan that fitted quite well to a previous constraint. And the encouragement came from our parents (mom was quite apprehensive initially). Anyhow, we've only settled a minor fraction of what's to come and we'll be keeping our fingers crossed. Toes as well.

This is a house. It is quite nice. I like.

This officially marks another new chapter in our life, one that would definitely not be as easy previously planned. Like my parents often tell me, life would not be fulfilling if everything goes on smoothly and its better to struggle when you're still young. To be honest, I'm still a little doubtful over this but since the first step has already been taken, I can only hope that this would not be a decision that I'll not regret for the days to come. I guess I still need some sort of concrete reassurances.
