House!
I have finally received the keys to my new house. I find housebuying to be such a strange process. Its probably one of the biggest purchases I will make in my life, but I had to spend less time deciding than I would on a new dress, and then have to spend 2 months working out how to pay for the new dress house before I get to see it again. It feels so bloody strange to finally get a good look around something that is now mine. I have worked out that I probably can afford to put floorboards down (awesome!), so now I just have to work out which ones, and from there the colour of the walls, etc etc.
On one hand I'm really happy, I like the house, I like being able to make it mine, but on the otherhand I feel sad at the prospect of finally leaving home. I'm comfortable here (maybe the comfort of sitting in a rut) but I have it easy and I get on with my parents and I have a nice big garden and cats and people to talk too. I'm concerned that moving out will just result in me becoming lonely rather than resulting in me starting to grow more as an independent person (which is the point).
