The floorissue

Yes, you may think: floorissue? Whuuutt did I miss?

Well, not much really. Darling boyfriend and I do not live together, nor will we for the next year. But I do love to fantasize over how lover and I will spend the days cuddling in each others arms on the couch while we watch tv/read a book/eat food etc. you know the drill.

Then ofcourse, there's this part of my female brain that has a soft spot for decorating. I didn't think I had that spot, but turns out, I located it (so much easier than that other spot -ha).

And how well boyfriend and I manage to co-excist. Only recently it has come to my attention that we cannot, I repeat, cannot. EVER. live. in. the. same. house.

You see, I have a deep DEEP love for white wooden floors. I'm not sure why, might be something to do with how clean and fresh everything looks. Especially with white walls. I actually feel butterflies looking at white floors. That's how much I dream about them in my future home.

Now darling boyfriend, who is a MAN, just for the record, he does not like white wooden floors. Oh no, he likes them BROWN wooden. And even though I do not hate brown floors, I do dislike them when they discriminate on my white floors! Boyfriend says: 'It's mental, you can't relax, the floor drives you crazy looking at it.' And I say it makes everything looks fresh and clean and light. Then he says it's 'clinical' (a word only used by men, I promise you). And then I beg for him to give in, he says no, and then I say we can't ever live together.

Story of my life.

lol. I'm way too young to care about floors, but I do.

Home inspiration! Part 1

The year 2011 will be a year of growth to me. This year has already been one of growth, and I hope that all the years of the rest of my life will be centered around growth (and love).

In 2011 I will be taking some big steps in growing up! I will be doing my second internship, at (I'm so wishing!!) Cosmopolitan! I still need to apply, but I really want to work there.

I will go on my second holiday with my boyfriend, and we'll be celebrating our 2nd year anniversary (longest serious relationship I've ever had).

I will turn twenty, and will never again be a teenager. O my, twenty sounds so old all of the sudden. When in my twenties, I'll be in the -ties, stuck forever! Or well, untill I turn a hundred :)

I will quite possibly change my job for something new, and MAYBE quit the hockey (for my internship, it's a four hour travel back and forth so..)

And the biggest change is that....


I WILL BE MOVING OUT


Yes, you read that right. I made the decision. It took me some time, but I feel it's time for a new step. I'm quite the people person, so I will be missing my family soooo much, but it's time for me to take care of myself. And I want to live on my own for a while, untill I eventually will live with my boyfriend (but not for another two or three years).

So, naturally, I've been searching for inspiration. What do I like in a home? (especially considering that I will buy pieces that have to be suitable to move in a house with a man eventually). Luckily, I love looking at homes. So this is a joy.

I can't wait for 2011, it will be a GOOD year!

Ps. I will be moving into a house with roommates, so I will only own ONE room. I'm hoping for something affordable in Tilburg, big enough to fit in a two-person bed, and a couch!!! I would LOOOOOVE a couch and a tv!!
