Okay, so a lot of people know this already at this point, but the low-down is: I have made my first home purchase.

Which is to say that after talking with my parents, crunching numbers (and crunching numbers and crunching numbers, as poor [livejournal.com profile] enough_space will tell you) and freaking out and negotiating and thinking long and hard, I have officially purchased a condo. :B The closing date isn't until June 7th, THINGS COULD STILL GO WRONG!! but as it is, I've been approved for the loan and have recieved the official CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR PURCHASE mail. In totally boring grown-up things, part of the loan application process includes a credit check, and I recieved a copy of it. It was an extremely pleasant surprise, as I knew my credit was good, but I didn't realize it was actually, in fact, excellent. OKAY I AM DONE BRAGGING ABOUT THAT, I was just proud of me. :(

This also means that I will be probably cutting back a lot on going out and/or shopping in the next three months, as I will need a) time to pack and clean and b) time for my finances to stabilize again. I'm also pretty much in a state of QUASI-HIATUS, so while I'll be around on gchat and still around-around during the day when I'm at work, PM me in the evenings at your own risk, because I will yell about how much I hate packing/cleaning and/or about NUMBERS!! at you. In ridiculously nerdy number-crunching ways, I have written up an entire spreadsheet that plans for various contingencies where I can input my monthly income at any given time and see where I stand re: payments and bills. I, I think I really enjoy playing with numbers and probability, does this mean I should have become an accountant? (Note: I don't actually know entirely what an accountant does beyond what a preliminary google search tells me.)

ANYWAY. I GUESS I AM A REAL ADULT NOW.

FUNNY THING IS, I DON'T REALLY FEEL TOO DIFFERENT FROM BEFORE pee ess I still intend to see Iron Man 2 tonight kyaaa kyaa RDJ kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

Also maybe I will allow myself to get a banh mi this weekend because I've been madly craving one. Madly. :B

Pee Pee Ess: WHY DID MY FRIENDS-OF LIST GO UP? I AM REALLY BORING THESE DAYS. OH MY GOD I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD APOLOGIZE TO EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU, even the ones that have me on the only-occasionally-read filter. ;A; Ilu all, I am just super-bad at showing my appreciation these days especially. 8(

Congratulations! That sounds awesome. And scary. But mostly awesome. (As does the spreadsheet, actually. Numbers involving complicated money things can be surprisingly fun, but then I majored in accounting so I have an excuse. XD)

HOLY SHIT CONGRATULATIONS! That's really really exciting!

I dunno, I felt all Adult after I got my first apartment down here... yeah that didn't last long. >.> I think it's normal. (Hint/protip: You will never, ever feel grown up. Ever.)
