Home Sweet Home

Finally, I live in my own home. I bought it last year. It was a total short-term investment. Not what I plan for, now I got myself into mortgage and moved into it. Since the original idea is for investment, it is so not my dream home. The location, the size, the view are all not what I can settle for. However, it's not for us to choose most of the time in our life. Now what I do is to enjoy docorating my new home, and to try my very best to agree with it. I have been renting apartment for 6 years. Well, say HK$7000 a month for the rent, I have thrown away HK$504,000. In Hong Kong, purchasing properties is what people do when they have enough down payment. However, a loner as me, I never wanted to get myself tied with bank for the rest of my life. But now that I became one of them, maybe it's a chance to safe money for future. Maybe, I gotta grow up now and be compromised. Maybe, it's time to learn commiment - to human beings and ... to the bank!
