Yes, I am ending my 3 year "affair" with my flat. Tonight I would be spending my last night in it. I feel very sad to leave this place because I am so attached and accustomed to it. When I first came to this town, being penniless and almost homeless, I could not find a decent place to live and I was desperate. Out of nowhere this "savior" pops up in the classifieds and has been offering me a place which I have been stuck with it through thick and thin.
For the last 3 years, this flat provided me the shelter from weather as well as protection from harm. Moreover it is centralised located in town as well as provided me a nice sweeping view of the rolling hills and beautiful sunsets. That's how the name of my blog came from and it has been the source of inspiration of my blog entries. To me, the flat has become something more than just a flat. It is a family, friend, a protector and a nurturer. It is a place where I call home and looking forward to return to its embrace at the end of the day. I really really miss this place very much.
However, time has come to say good bye with this humble flat. The environment in this place is somewhat deteriorated over the years and it is not conducive to stay here any longer. The dampness, the noise, the rowdy neighbourhood and the lack of privacy is slowly hitting the core of my raw nerves. So with a heavy heart, I must leave and start a new phase of my life and restore myself back to senses.
As of 6 pm tonight, the line and broadband connection at my flat will be switched off permanently. Tomorrow, I shall be moving my things out and then come back to make this place sparkling clean. Good bye to my beloved little old flat and I miss you always...
