Wearing a more serious face (and knowing you're actually buying it - wait what?) consider:

How much time do you plan to spend in your bedroom? Because once you have a whole, unshared house, a great way to use a bedroom is for sleeping and sexing and little else, so you need almost nothing in there. Further, if you have three bedrooms and don't plan on renting any of them out, you have a bedroom, an office and a walk in closet and the the rest of the house is your playground.

Choose the big room. Put the bed in it. Middle for your office. Little for clothes. Spread out.

Those photos look amazing by the way.

Super excited. I haven't even seen the place but it has everything I want, great location, great features, great price. I talked on Hubski a bit ago about my mom pressuring me to buy a house and I was just like "she's nuts." However I've had a yearish to rest on it and get my finances more straightened out - which I have, though still in the process, but incredibly rewarding - and I really do want this. I want my own place, I don't want to move every year anymore (though really, did I ever? Moving' snot fun) and I want the freedom of living alone slash with various animals. (Talk me out of getting a dog, everyone, please. I know it's not a good idea. I probably won't. But feel free to help convince me.) This is only the sixth house I'll go see so it would be a little crazy but it has so much and the price is perfect. I want this so bad. and I have to shout out to my parents and thank them for letting me live at their house on super reduced rent for the past four months (and until I do buy a house) for helping me get here.

And also, start appreciating my job a fuck more. I'm twerkin' on it. I'm incredibly lucky to be where I am right now in 2015: the writing's going great, the job loves me, I'm trying - and going to - buy my own fuckin' house. Need to remember that.
