Homeeee, 1st one...

I know it sounded as if I am posting daily but something very rare happened and I am extremely happy after so many months. One of the major problems that kept on bothering me recently got solved today. I called the owner of the apartmant and told her that my friend's parent who was supposed to be the cosigner went to a summer holiday and will not come back for few months. This was a white lie that I had to make in order to get the place. I don't like lies because once you lie you have to keep on making more lies to protect your own shame. We are humans capable of lyng and in some situations we have to lie. I guess this was one of these situations. If I hadn't lie than we would still be looking for a place to call home. On the phone we settled and agreed upon the conditions. After talking with my 2 other future rommies we went to make the contract. At first what I cared was getting a place no matter what. So we went to the apartmant on Dundas street and after long application we filled we went up to see the model rooms. The room was better than what we expected. Everything was so good that I thought I am dreaming and felt worried that I may wake up to realise it. We went to the office then paid the deposit fee and reserved are place for the 3 bedroom apartmant. I felt like a big responsibility lifted from my shoulders as I exited the place. What is really weird is I made a lot of research on the 3bedroom townhouse located in 3400 Credit Woodlands and was so sure we will get that place. After realising that it was not inclusive and we would probably get denied since our bank account and the jobs my friends possess are not sufficient enough to persuade the owners. So we ended up not getting the place. The big chaos was we needed a place in no time so that when I come next year I would not face a problem where I have to find a place to live. This place that we rented today, I had no idea what it was and how it would be living there. I only knew the few properties listed on the website... That is where the magic starts... On one side you have a well searched place and on the other hand you have a place where you know nothing about. So when we exited the apartmant happily having the contract made I started to realise we are living probably the best place in Mississauga. There are lots and lots of restaurants around the apartmant. There are 2 pharmacy stores that I saw. One dry cleaner where you can get your things sewed. Some small malls or centers. A dollarama shop. Western union store. KFC. These are all so near that I would not even consider a walking distance. There is where I guess the magic is. The place that I found was probably the best I could ever imagine. The possibility of me getting the contract there, I dunno the chance. The other thing was when I measured the time we spent to travel in mississauga transit it took only 12 mins to UTM. Another awesome fact... Despite all these we finally have a place to call home and most important of all a place where we can call ours... First one... Where we are to decorate completely... Where we are independent from our parents to decide what to get... All these make me so happy and at the same time excited... I feel so positive about this... A home, my home... I feel like I am flyng with the clouds...
