I did it.
I bought a condo…or simply the promise of one. It doesn't exist yet, which is a little inconvenient but there are certainly benefits. The main one…I have time to sort out my employment situation. And an exciting plus is that I am able to choose all of my finishings. Floors. Cupboards. and Countertops. Oh my!
I struggled with the decision beyond the far-off closing date. I feared being on the wrong side of gentrification. My new neighbourhood is my old neighbourhood. What will become of it? With the appearance of a Starbucks a few years ago, the neighbourhood has been progressing from dirt-town hipster mecca to gallery-heavy yuppie town with a steady pace. But this condo...the first in the hood, will bring with it an influx Young Urban Professionals in one fell swoop. It'll be the YUPpie invasion.
Hide your lululemons. They're coming.
Yup. I'm one of them.
