Me: "Dad, why don't you sell the house? I thought you were planning to? Don't you want a brand new environment. The house is getting boring."
Dad: "Well, I planned to but only a few attempted to make an offer, and price-wise, they're below what we're setting up. You know, it ain't easy to sell this kind of house. Beside, I think this house is more than enough for living"
Me: "But, don't you feel bored living in the same house for, like, (let me count) 10 years. Geez! It's a long time. Why didn't you buy the next house when it's up for sale so that we could turn it into a swimming pool and the much-needed car park?" You should have followed what mom said. Too bad, it's occupied already. Ugh. Dad, I want a swimming pool. It's so annoying going to public pool and all the chairs are taken. Even if there's a spare lounging chair, i won't be comfortable lying there to tan my skin amid a horde of pool visitors. And also, aesthetically, the pool is a bit 'blah'. I want to have my own where I could co-design it with the architect. It'll be dope, dad!!! Lounging chairs on each side, music in the surrounding, arghhh! It's just gonna be amazinggggg! Could you give me certain tasks and if I can accomplish them, I'll get a pool in return? Or you prolly could give it to me on my birthday?"
Dad: "No, this house is already convenient, and it's still in good condition. Yes, I should have followed your mom because we do need more car park, and you'll able to have a swimming pool in the backyard. We can't build a swimming pool somewhere just for your leisure. The maintenance will cost big bucks! Don't be ridiculous. Unfortunately, I didn't think about these earlier. At that time, I just thought that the price offer for the house was rather high. Had I purchased it, I could have use it as a land for your house as well. Kids these days, they're all about wanting these and that without a hardwill to earn money. If you want a swimming pool, you gotta work hard."
Me: *Sigh* (then walk away...)
Label me all you want (spoiled/snob/immature) but they're honest pieces of conversation that took place in my house yesterday. Yes I've been wanting to have my own house complete with a swimming pool for a long time. I always have these thrilling concepts and ideas for my ideal house, and I can't wait to make them real. In fact, I've saved numerous house photos in my pc as references from the so-called Minimalist, American Classic, Mediterranean, Balinese to Contemporary and Eclectic. I imagine it'll be so much fun to decorate the house - the layout, the furniture, the ornaments, etc, as it's a form of self-expression. Below are some random ideas on how my house's gonna be, at least for now.
1. It'll be 1 story
2. It'll be a floated house hold by pillars
3. Minimalist design with Eclectic twist and Mediterranean vibe.
4. The interior will consist of mild brown, broken white/vanilla, transparent for those made from glasses, gold hue (think of Tom Ford's stores + Mr. Chow restaurant)
5. Heaps of paintings (black paintings with silhouettes of people smoking, naked photos)
6. There'll be vasts filled with broken-white/vanilla flowers.
7. Tom Ford book would be lied onto a corner table along with the perfumes as an art piece.
8. Lots of candles, preferably, by Jo Malone.
9. Sleek book shelves
10. A couple of mannequins in the living room
11. A spacious room where all creativity is able to be poured, spilled, vomited out. Content: Dance Studio, Music Instruments, DJ Set, Lighting Set, Stage, Mannequins, Paintings, Flowers, Clothes, Accessories.
12.Entire glass windows separating the house from the backyard.
13. A swimming pool will be built on the backyard which comes in rectangular shape.
14. Dining table and chairs will be set up in an area inside the house overlooking the pool.
15. Another dining table and chairs will be placed by the pool in case outdoor dinner is favored.
16. A complete set of sound system will be set up in a backyard in a way that it's hidden.
17. Outdoor kitchen set
18. The roof will be asymmetrical (incline to one side)
Once my house is built, I'll hire qualified maids & servants to help running chores, and most importantly, a chef, to prepare various daily meals - they're better be super delicious and relatively healthy! The meals should vary according to the day, for example, Monday - Indonesian food, Tuesday - Chinese/Japanese, Wednesday - Korean/Vietnam, Thursday - Greek/Indian, Friday - French, Saturday - Italian, Sunday - African/Afghanistan. I couldn't help but chuckle at the thought as I would need to be filthy rich since hiring a professional cook is incredibly expensive. Well, the variety of the meals doesn't have to be that many, A few would suffice to indulge my taste bud, and thus, makes my life so much better.
Then, I'll invite my friends, parents, dates for meals either lunch or dinner on a regular basis. We'll sit inside or outside the house depending on the mood. If we sit outside for dinner, there'll be a chef cooking the meals in front of us. The dining table will be beautifully arranged with fine cutlery, flowers and candles. The soothing music will be played in the background to turn on the mood. Good stories, juicy gossips and witty banter will fly across the table as we chow down the meals. If lunch is preferred, we'll have cold salad and eat them while we're sitting on lounging chairs by the pool on a hot afternoon. Mid-tempo, summery music will be the perfect companion. When sunset falls, we'll swim or take a dip in the pool, and we'll take photos in turn with Sergio Mendez 'The Look of Love', Sneaky Sound System 'Where Do I Begin', Kelis 'Lil' Star', David Guetta's 'When Love Takes Over' & Ayumi Hamasaki 'Sunset LOVE is all~' singing, one at a time.
Alternatively, we can immerse in our creativity in the art haven. We'll dress up and the girls can put on make up while the mannequin is being set up. Then, we'll push the windows open and turn the heater on. The sun is projecting its last ray as the song starts to play with the beats that are rare and the melody that makes us coo 'hey sexey'. 'A Slave For You' is heard in the background, we toss the clothes to the ground and moves like a horned-up python....frowned upon, the sensual nerves couldn't help but on. We'll rub, touch, grind our way to freedom, circling the mannequin in tops and thongs, and scream in unison "Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh..." Soaked up in sweats, all sexily wet, we'll do one last take and whisper 'you like that?'
