Dream house.

This is my idea of a perfect house. (These photos are either from Tumblr or the Ikea website).

I've done a post before on how I want to live when I'm older but not about how I want my house to be like. I've always pictured myself to live in a home with a lot of character but have a really modern inside. I like the idea of living with house mates and I want to live with Millie Jones from millieslittleworld.blogspot.co.uk   We both agreed to use a spare room as one giant wardrobe and buy all the clothes we wanted and live off food from home bargains to pay for clothes :') She also wants a ginger cat called benedict which I'm not too keen on!

 

I have a huge fear of growing old and not having done anything with my life. I want to make sure I take every opportunity I have the chance to. Where I live should be a place you go to die. There is no economy or a chance to build a career. It's a beautiful place and many people would love to live here but it's not for the young and inventive. Its got no nightlife or buzz. I want to go to Cardiff university or somewhere that's in amongst it all. I want to experience so much and that's why my bucket list goes on forever. But more than anything I want to be able to look back on my life and remember some crazy time I went rock jumping or went to the festival of the dead in Mexico, from partying hard at Glastonbury festival to spending weeks of relaxation in Greece with my boyfriend. 

I want my house to be a home and somewhere that's beautiful and everyone envy's. It would be modern but with my own twist of vintage chic. I don't want anything that looks cheap. If it was cheap but doesn't look it then its a bargain other wise in my eyes it's a waste of money on something tacky. I like the idea of my room being black and white like on the fist picture and I've always wanted white bedding with pretty flowery throws. I imagine it to be clean although I will probably have clothes everywhere. I want to be able to make it my home and be able to be proud of it. I'm torn between wanting a house and wanting an apartment. I love the idea of having a house somewhere with a big garden and making it look fantastic but I imagine that it's more likely that I will have a house when I'm ready to settle down. I reckon I will have an apartment first based on the fact I want to focus on my career more. Meaning I won't have time to be able to look after the garden or walk a dog. I want my life to be full if being busy and enjoying everything I do. 

I want my own laundry room and if your reading from America you'll more than likely have them, but we don't have laundry rooms. Also in America you have washing machines and tumble dryers that are super cool and I'd like ones like that. (If you've ever seen The Big Bang Theory, when they do their washing -it's those laundry machines). My other wishes are an en-suite and a walk-in-wardrobe. And if not a walk in wardrobe ill use a spare room as my dressing room/wardrobe. 

The reason I'm thinking about this is because it's not that far away along my journey and I have to make sure my future has been thought about. Even every aspect such as my house. It's come to the point where we are realising what we need to achieve otherwise we will be monumentally fecked. To the point of we argue with our teacher if they don't do what's right for our education and cause havoc in our classrooms until we are able to talk to someone higher that will sort it out. I'm realising that my life is going to start in less than 9 months time when I leave school. Therefore nows the time time I'm going to have to start plucking up courage from somewhere to be able to achieve these things. 

Here are some bigger pictures of how I'd like my house;
