My House – Short Essay

My house is the best place in this whole big world! The fact that it is mine, itself makes it the dearest to me. Just the thought of my house gives a snug, comforting feeling to my mind and heart.

I stay in a hostel as I am studying abroad. I have been away from my house for years now. Whenever I feel homesick, I start exploring my house in my imagination. I open the door and I see a big hall. A table with flowers upon it. A big, luxurious Television. Orange curtains covering the windows. A fluorescent light illuminating the hall. Then, I enter into the kitchen. I see a big platform, fraught with cutlery. I see my favourite section, filled with biscuits and chocolates. I see the refrigerator with all the notes and lame jokes stuck on it.

Then I move towards the favourite part of my house. My room. I open the door and move inside. I see a big, king size bed on which I roll all night during my sleep. I see a study table which I seldom use. I see a bookshelf with all the latest novels, rather than my coursebooks. I see my cupboard. And, when I open the cupboard, I see all the clothes falling down as I had stuffed them in, rather than compiling them in a systematic way. And, the favourite corner of my room. The one with the charging slot. I imagine myself sitting there with my phone for long hours. It is always soothing to imagine about my house whenever I feel homesick. My house is my palace. I feel like a king in my house. I can do anything in my house.

My house has seen every one of my ups and downs. It has seen my happy and sad times. I have always celebrated all my birthdays and feats in my house. And I remember, whenever I used to fail in something or felt sad, I used to hide myself in a corner and cry. My house is my greatest companion.
