Lucky number 21

Love and I have always loved the "Rumah Lelong" advertisement on the way back to my house.

Previous two weekends, I saw an advertisement of a house with a very reasonable price. We hadn't really look for a house at that time, as we were waiting for our bonus this year, then only thought of house-hunting. But just out of fun, we decided to look at the house and got up all excited, then the next day, we've almost forgotten about the house.

Last Saturday, we had a tea with Omma (my mum-in-law). I didn't remember how the conversation got there, but we came to the house topic. Then, Omma grab a pencil, a calculator, a laptop and a paper, she said, "Now, serious talk, bukan main2!"

For hours, we calculated on our savings and our salaries and surprisingly, we managed to pay for more than 10% for the deposit of the house, just on our savings.

So, yesterday, after Omma insisted to look at the house, we went to really take a look at the house and thought about all the pros and cons. And we fell in love with the house. So badly that I just have to drop by to look at the house everytime I drove my car out of my home currently.

After a while, we realized that the number of the house is '21'. I've always loved 21. Our anniversary is on 21st. Our previous house number is 21. And you know the kind of feeling when you looked at something and you know that it is gonna be yours so badly that you already feel that it's yours? That's kinda how I felt right now. (Anyway, I thin slice a lot this lately, I trust my instinct and I don't do unnecessary extra thinking. This is what happened when you read too much of Malcolm Gladwell, Blink)

Insya Allah, if this is the best for us, we're gonna have a castle of our own by end of this week. Ameen.

As of now, I feel so grown up already!! :D I mean mentally, not physically. Though I heard some comments on how "grown up" I am (physically) after I got married. Ugh! So depressing! I need a jog!! Or better I need to ganti puasa soon!
