The list maker is back. I was bored of studying nutrition yesterday so I made a list of things I want when I have my own place.
1. One wall will have a huge bookshelf. From one end to the other. And Agatha Christie, OHenry, Pablo Neruda, J.K Rowling, Paelo Coelho, Kahlil Gibran, Jacklyn Moriarty, Alexander McCall Smith will have pride of place on it
2. I will have a red wall.
3. And a desk.
4. And a softboard placed over my desk. I will stick a huge world map on it. To be wistful about places I want to visit and to mark the places I have been.
5. I also want loads and loads of pens on my desk, ready to be used. So that I never run out of ink. I keep losing my pens.. I will buy the 3 rupee ones. So I can keep on buying them without feeling guilty.
5. I want a small terrace. With a deck chair. To come up and look at the stars. To grow flowers. And for long glances at the moon.
6. I will have a hammock. To laze around with a book.
7. I will have an espresso machine. For the instant caffeine high.
8. I also want a landline with an answering machine. I always wanted one. Whenever I read about them I was fascinated. I want to record fun messages for callers. I have a list of funny answering machine messages, somewhere.
9. I want a huge bed loads of pillows. I do love pillows.
10. One of the walls will have framed photographs. To look at. And smile. I wish we had framed pictures at home. I already know which photographs I want framed.
There will be other things in the house too. But for now, these are the things I really, really want.
P.S: The Title of this post is inspired by a song by Aqualung. You can find the lyrics here

ReplyDeleteI hope so too :)
DeleteWhile reading this, I kinda realized that these are exactly the things I yearn for, especially the red wall, the world map, and the bookshelf of course! I really enjoyed reading this. :)
ReplyDeleteI am glad you liked it. It's good to make lists of things you want, right?
