My brother and his wife just announced they are expecting their fourth child... I love my family but perhaps it's time to move out so I can better focus on school.
It seems a bit frivolous since there is still plenty of space at home and it's both where I train and work. But moving out would give me more quiet time to study and meditate.
I thought about the dorms but they're a bit far from here. Perhaps a roommate...
Something walkable to a direct line to Rikkai and preferably not too far out from Yukimura and others in Tokyo.
I want a tatami room. And I'd like an open outdoor space. Either a garden or something like that balcony that Yukimura had at his hotel in Paris. I need enough room for meditating and training.
That's why I was thinking a roommate might be good. I could justify getting a bigger place.
Congratulations for another little one to be in your family. That is exciting news. That said, its very understandable that it wouldn't be appealing to remain there given that there will be a newborn. You must have a full house.
Ah~ New babies are so exciting. Are you excited to be an uncle again~? I definitely would be. I can't wait for my brother to have kids. ☆ ~('▽^人)
Have you really been living at home all this time? I guess it's not that weird, but if your brother and sister-in-law live there with all of their children, you must not get much privacy...
I bet. Lazy Sunday mornings with family are the best. Do you like doing
things in particular~?
Hahaha. That's kinda how I felt before I decided to move to Tokyo. But then
my living situation didn't really even change all that much... regardless,
I understand. ☆ ~('▽^人)
Renji is helping me look for places. But if I don't find anything that suits my needs, I will probably just stay home but spend more time at the library.
I want a tatami room for meditating and calligraphy. And either a nice outdoor space or high enough ceilings for kendo training. Close to the main train lines I need, too.
I know it's a demanding list but there's no reason to not be picky.
True. I either need to find somewhere that is a bargain or get a roommate. I wouldn't feel right spending money otherwise when I could still stay at home.
Such a new addition is always a cause for celebration.
That's true. It would be a poor decision to simply choose the first place that you see. Good luck with your search, Sanada-kun. If ever you don't mind, I believe that the housing I stay in might possibly have a few more openings.

Date: 2018-06-26 11:50 pm (UTC)I bet. Are they the sort who wish to have many children? I've always thought about having five personally. With the right person, that is.
Then plenty of room for more. I imagine it will start to feel cramped eventually.
