I want to live in a house...

I want to live in a house that is white, or colourful with red tiled roof. The house is enclosed in a garden like thing. There are nice, white woody fences around. Vines are tangling the fences, with some nice small purple flowers blossoming.

As we enter the house, the floor is made of some warm wood. In one corner of the house there is a fireplace. There must be a fireplace. The fire is dancing in its small hut, crackling as it consumes the logs. Near the fireplace is a oval carpet. The carpet has some pretty intriguing pattern. We have some comfortable chairs or sofa nearby, and maybe an old bookshelf on the wall with books. Lots and lots of books. The books look thick and old. The pages have started to turn yellow but crispy, and there is a pleasurable feeling when you turn them. The books are kept in place by very heavy, animal head shaped bookends.

I want the house to be permeated with music. Masterpieces by Mozart and Beethoven, no that will be too mainstream, maybe Vivaldi and Strauss, or Shostakovich, and loads of beautiful movie themes.

I want the walls to be lined with torches or oil lamps, but I guess that will be too unrealistic.

Not far from the fireplace is the dining corner, in which there is a long, rectangle table, made of some dark coloured wood. But the top of the table is covered by a brightly coloured tablecloth, like real cloth, it feels like wool. Then you have a vase in the middle of the table, and some nice crystal lights hanging on the ceiling. The entire place is lit by a very warm yellowish light, you know, not that kind of white and cold fluorescent ones.

I haven't really thought of the other rooms in the house yet. But I want to hang paintings all over the walls, okay not really all over, but there must be a lot of paintings hanging around, be it cartoon or surreal. I don't like modern paintings. I don't study art. I'll hang it if I think it looks nice.

Maybe in the ceiling of my bedroom I demand some lighting. It will be ideal if the ceiling is made of glass or open-able so that I can glance at the stars. Oh yeah the house must be in somewhere where I can see stars. If that is too unrealistic I should at least have some sort of dark ceiling with really little light bulbs in it looking like tiny specks of some luminous wonders. That will be awesome.

Ideally, the bedroom is all covered in some fluffy carpet so that I can continue rolling on the floor after I roll down my bed.

The bathroom must have a bathtub. I want a bathtub so badly!!!!! Then some parts of the floor be covered with sand and shells. It make me feels as though I'm swimming in some parts of the ocean. The bathroom walls are covered with tiles of different shades of blue, in random distribution, all the way till the ceiling. The ceiling is light blue, mimicking the sky.

Oh and maybe a yellow rubber duck in the bathtub. Yellow ducks are cool.

Somewhere in the basement of the house is my secret lab. Inside I'll have all sorts of weird things bubbling up awesomeness. Of course I'll ensure it's safe, with adequate fire extinguisher and stuff, so when something explodes it will not burn the entire house down. No, it's such a beautiful house, I won't allow that to happen. But yeah, I may store up some illegal chemicals and heavy metals...oh wait why I'm I posting it here. Silly me ignore this paragraph completely it exist only in my imagination. (But who knows maybe someday I'll be lucky enough...)

Anyway, back to other parts of the house. In my study room I'll have a very big waste paper bin, because I'm too lazy to empty the rubbish frequently. Like really big so I'll only have to clear it once every six months or sth. In my study room I want all the walls to be filled with books, books and more books! Muhahaha! It's like a mini library. I'll have a very big desk so I can put many things on it and none will be pushed down. Here the sound is very well insulated. Or maybe not, I can open my window and still hear the sound of nature. Maybe a twig grows into my room through a window and a bird build a nest on it and, I don't know. Oh and one of the books trigger a door hidden among the bookshelves to open, leading to...oh never mind.

Oh my I'm taking my fantasy too wild. But never mind, it's my dream, dreams can go beyond one's wildest imaginings.

So moving on, let's see we've talked about the living room, my bedroom, the bathroom, my study room, my secret... so what have we left with? Oh right the kitchen, I want the kitchen to look as bright and cheerful as possible. Every morning beams of light should shine in making everything look very happy. The curtains are orange and yellow, there are sunflowers on the table and all the cabinets should be yellow, orange or white, so the room looks like a playroom, but it's not. For the rest, I don't really know, cakes?

Oh and there are many glass jars containing delicious things or materials. I want the cookie jar to be extremely big and look cookie jar-ish. Because cookies are awesome.

What now? Hmm... okay let's move out of the house to the most important part...the garden. I must must have a garden and must must have a dog. It's a must, I don't care. (Btw I also must have the house to be two storeys or more so that I can slide down the handle of the staircase--sounds really fun but never got the chance to try it)

As I've mentioned, the garden must be enclosed by beautiful white fences. I don't really care what type of plants grow in my garden, I want nature to take its course. Maybe growing a few fruit trees, some bushes and the rest be lined with grass. I'll love it if some rabbits or squirrels can make my garden their home. And then like most people I'll put some gardening chairs in my garden, or maybe a coffee table so that I can drink tea in this wonderful setting. And to make my garden the secret garden I'm going to make the only entrance to it in a bookshelf. Nope not the one in my study room, that one links to my... this one
is in the living room, and you can just push one side of the shelf to get through, just like a revolving door.

I want my dog to be fluffy, medium to big size, looking friendly and bark at strangers but not for no reason. Sadly I've never gotten a chance to have a dog, but I swear that once I grow up I'm going to get a dog. Oh yeah and I created that garden partly so that my dog can fool around and play in it :)

I think I've really imagined too much, to the finest detail for some. Those who know me may be shocked by this. I'm always seen as someone logical, serious maybe (but really I'm not serious at all), but hey, as you see me thinking and being oblivious to the world you may think there's some important theories floating up in my mind, however in reality most of the time they are these kind of things. I've more than a gazillion times imagined how my future house will look like and came up with some amusing ideas. It feels good that I can share this. There are many many ways it can become and here is just one. It will take me forever to list all, and new ones will always pop into existence. (But do note that not all the time this happens...there are still times when important things come up in my head okay)

Why would you so randomly post this I hear you ask, well I happen to watch a night movie on channel 5, and as the ending music plays and I stayed curled up in my sofa I start to imagine myself curling up in the sofa near a fireplace, listening to the music. Then suddenly I felt very dreamy and happy, then I start to think of how my house could look like...and it begins.

Yeah I've always been like that, thinking of random things and then allowing it to bring me to random places. Now you know.
