Thanks.. Hahaha, I think he'll be able to click with my MIL as well.. Hahaha.. He's just a real nice guy la, I think he can click with anyone.. Good luck on ur quote man.. Anyways, dun need to feel bad about not engaging them and stealing their ideas... It's lidat one la, I also went to alot of IDs and they give me many ideas, but some are really surplus to my requirements.. But since I've went to so many IDs can get the good ideas and incorporate into our own idea.. Hahaha.. Alot of ppl are doing this la.. Hahaha.. DOn't have to feel bad, cuz it's their job to service u, doesn't mean service u den u must confirm sign with them mah..

Seems like striking toto/4D is no.1 on everybody's list.. Hahaha.. I think Ah Soon might not have the time to comment on the things u buy lah.. HAhaha.. Anyways, I'm doing neutral color scheme, so going for black, gray and white.. So should be pretty simple.. As long as no fancy colors can safely buy..

Anyways, Im feeling very kiasu.. I dunno wanna go confirm all my stuffs I need to buy liao or wait until next month.. Hahaha.. Actually I started looking for furniture even before my 1st appointment! Hahaha.. :X

Anyways, I just saw ur 2nd appointment date.. Very near to mine! Hahaha.. Think we can start work about the same time.. Maybe urs Monday can start liao.. On the 11th.. Mine still have to wait for the 13th..

Yah, he told me yesterday nite that he handed over on Thursday already.. Heng I managed to see the almost completed state of the house.. I have some pics I took but it's in my wife's phone.. If u wan I can show to u la, but nuthin beats going down to see for urself.. I think the Eunos flat owners hve no blog in here.. Didnt see a Eunos blog around.. But lucky me la, I stay in blk 20 now, that flat is blk 11, walk over can see liao, I went to see 3 times in different states and went in the nite to see the lightings effects Ah Soon was telling me about.. He said see at night with the lights very nice.. Hahaha

Wa, very far sia.. I think the HN sale is to counter the Courts Megatex show.. But one is in the east, one is in the west.. I think price should be comparable bah.. Why don't u go megatex take a look..

I heard something about free WII, where where? LOL..

NO la.. Not the whole flat la.. Hahaha.. We ask him to quote, den he say since it's ur sis in law charge cheap cheap lor, can discuss again if she really wants to repaint.. Dunno how much he'll charge, I think should be around $800+ bah which is a good price for a 4 room rite?

Just clicked on ur new link on your siggy.. Really nice of you to do up something for Uncle Soon.. I think he's really derserving of all these.. I always believe that when u do good to people, they will do good to u in return.. So I guess he's reaping all the rewards from all the previous good work he has done.. Cheers.. Anyways, I gotten my contact from Jesper, whom I think got from u bah.. I think Uncle Soon really has to thank Native02, you and all the rest whom are supporting him and bringing him more business thru word of mouth.. Happy for him.. Really very very nice guy..

Ya lor, exactly.. Hahaha, can't wait to start immediately.. But den my 2nd appointment is on a friday, den have to apply for permit.. Earliest is the next wed den can start work.. Can't wait for it.. Yaya, 6th May for u and 8th May for me.. The TV very nice hor.. Hahaha.. Gonna wall mount it to fully utilise the ambilight feature.. Oh, lidat ah, den I think should be dat bah.. The switches is also wat I wan.. Haahaha.. Anyways, now my wife is asking why don't want glass door.. Hahaha.. Aiyah, I dunno la, they look the same to me.. Black laminate and black glass, both shiny.. As long as I cant see thru ok liao..

Anyways, met up with uncle just now.. Confirmed some stuffs.. False ceiling extended to U shaped for living and a square ceiling in the middle of dining area, actually was 2 sides **** and the square one at dining.. Confirmed all wiring included, only have to buy the lights.. Gonna have the cove lightings, gonna spend a bomb liao la.. 22 points for living and dining alone.. MBR another 6.. Confirmed using granite instead of corian.. $20 pfr more for black galaxy over corian.. Siao liao, i think havent add in the quote.. Wait for his new quote den say.. The TV console must add $100 more cuz I want the roundish shaped one.. He confirmed with me the feature wall can be 7-8 ft long.. Mirrors are $80 each (size same as the one for the Eunos unit) This one also dunno whether he included in the new figure he quoted me.. Uncle threw in some FOC.. He will change the switch covers to the new "in looking" switches.. Forgot the quantity, i think 5 single ones, 3 double ones, 2 tel points and 2 scv points.. He will change the main gate lock and peephole FOC.. Shift some eletrical points FOC.. Alamak, I dunno whether the 5 is changing existing covers or new points.. Siao liao, must ask him.. Minor shifting of common toilet door to accomodate the new kitchen door position(if required) foc.. HDB permit inclusive.. Installation of ceiling fans with seperate regulator switch and light switch FOC... He wants to throw in the stainless steel backing for the kitchen but wifey doesnt want it.. Anyways, I think I wanna skip the glass doors and go for black laminate doors, will be cheaper rite? Cuz I'm afraid of my son wh can be a bull sometimes... Hahaha.. And I actually felt the doors are kindda heavy.. Anyways, the new figure is $22500.. Wife is happy with it la.. Most importantly we both like his straighforwardness and the way he really wants to do business.. Not pushy, very chin chai.. FOC here and there.. I think will have more FOCs lah, right now just lidat, can think of anything will add it in... I also told him if got anything need money must tell me.. He said little little things "shi duo, er san shi kuai bu yong jing la, ke yi song gei ni" ($10, $20, $30 stuff nvm, can throw in FOC).. He said most important is we happy with his services, and recommend him to others in the future.. I told him I'm writing in the forum and he told me, "I charge you for the small small things also no point, you see, you help me do advertisement.. Just take more pictures of the house after completion and post on internet can liao" Really funny.. Hahaha.. Anyways, I'm very very happy I've selected him as my contractor and I'm sure many other ppl are.. Wifey and I also asked him alot of things, he said last time 13 yrs old he do furniture one, dat explains 2 of his missing fingers.. (He said one, lost dem when he was 13) Den he did some mosaic works, electrician den he went to do this lor, and rest is history.. Hahaha.. Nice la, really feel we can click with him.. Will recommend him to anyone.. Only thing is, his package included some aeroplanes la.. Dat's all, but I think his services more den make up for that...

Wah, so long never post my blog is all the way dwn, almost couldnt find it.. HAHAHA.. Anyways, finally completed my major purchase! The TV of my dreams, the Philips ambilight 42PFL7603.. The main reason why I like it is the ambilight la.. I think anyone looking for a new TV should go for it.. Ask any SA and they'll tell u more.. It's fantastic... Anyways, bought the TV for $1299 (Display Set).. Got assurance that the set is brand new and opened on Thursday on the 1st day of the megatex fair.. It'll be left on probably for more den 10 hrs per day for 4 days until sunday, den they said they will pack everything back and await for delivery.. Hope it's true.. I checked with one of my friend who used to work at Harvey Norman, he said it's true, these TVs are opened only at the start of the fair and once the fair is over, they will repack and deliver.. Hope really the case, I'm only worried they will bring the set back to display.. LOL.. Hopes noone does anythin funny to the set.. Gonna check it out on sunday again.. Anyways, lotsa home appliances on sale.. Saw one amplifier home theatre system from Onkyo with Jamo speakers, real powerful, only $600 odd.. But must buy seperate DVD player.. Sianz.. Almost bought it, but scared my wife will jump at me.. Hahaha.. Think gonna lower the budget liao.. Heng my friend is helping me secure better discounts from HN, so might get from HN instead...

Good for you.. Ur fridge and w.m. super cheap, they're not very heavy load one ah? The one I'm looking at is around 550l fridge and it costs $1399 without discount alone.. Ugh, think must cut down and look for something cheaper.. But I like big fridge sia.. LOL... Anyways, yah, there are samsung and LG booths down there.. I think u shuld go down to take a look.. Prices are good.. The LG tv is really worth it IMO.. Hahaha.. Too bad, I only have eyes for the Philips ambilight..

Congratz.. Hahaha.. Feels weird cuz u don't have to chase after Ah Soon ah.. Hahaha, I can't wait for my turn to come.. Wow.. $20900.. I just negotiated mine, didn't quote him a price to discount, he just straightforward told me $22500.. LOL.. Anyways, good lah, we discussed about the FOC items too.. And he told me to ask all the ppl in this forum.. He told me he's not calculative, small small things won't charge one la.. Unless really big scale and few hundreds of dollars den he will charge.. (Not dat I didn't know) Hahaha.. He said "I charge u this charge u that also no point, somemore i reno for you, you still help me advertise in the internet.." Hahaha... Anyways, just now uncle also telling me about this.. He ask me to ask the person in tampines, said something about painting the owner's mum's room and he didnt wannt charge.. He said he told the person if he/her wanna pay go look for someone else, dun look for him.. Hahaha.. So it was u lah.. Hahaha.. Cuz I was asking for my sis in law who's looking for someone to repaint her whole flat.. Hahaha..

Jasper, did u go to Expo Megatex fair? I just bought my TV there.. There's an LG 42 inch full hd LG55 going for $1299.. I think the prices comparable or lower den the IT fair..

Envy Envy.. Really nice place u've got there.. And ur kids are real fortunate.. I tink me and my wife are gonna let our 2 kids sleep with us for maybe a couple of years more.. A balcony full of toys, now I wished I have a balcony in my new house.. Hahaha.. I'm an easterner, but gotta be moving somewhere north east.. Dunno whether I'll get use to it.. I dunno why, but I just love the east side so much.. I think it's the bond we have with the place, it's like we know the east so well, moving to the west or anywhere else, we wouldnt be able to get used to it.. HAhaha..

Ah boy is bangala ah? I didnt know sia.. Ah Soon ask me call him to go down see tiles.. Anyways, ur laundry system power! I also want one!

IFC is short for International Furniture Centre It's located at 62 Sungei Kadut Loop, S(729507)

Wah, my daughter's clothes is washed together with my son's.. They are 3 mths and 2 yrs old respectively.. Lol.. Handwashing is hardwork and very time consuming man.. Last time my mom also hand wash until i bought a new W.M. Hahaha..

Barang Barang is at Singapore Post Centre near Paya Lebar MRT.. Level 3.. Some items are pricey though.. Most sofa sets are around $3k+ after discount.. I think if u have no budget can go and see see look look.. But for me, it's over budget liao.. Hahaha.. The first sofa I really liked, I sat on it, wah, super shiok, told my wife can consider.. Den we searched for the price tag.. It's $7k+ before 40%.. Hahaha.. Immediately we shifted our focus from it.. Too bad, times are bad.. Hahaha..

Anyways, I was at BHG Century Square at Tampines yesterday, bought 2 Shecando bed sheet sets with quilt cover.. Is this brand very good? Hahaha, the SA keep telling me the thread count is 460, super good.. Hahaha.. I was convinced to purchase it because the original price of the set is $569.00 each.. And I got both at $280.00.. Is it a gimmick or is the price really so good?

Oh, alrite.. That's a very good deal.. Any idea whether any counter top bowl type can be choosen? Hahaha.. Hmm.. Thanks for sharing anyways.. Hahaha.. Good la, if you cook alot den granite is the way to go.. Sleep at 2am ah? I slept at 3am sia the night before.. Yah lor, like I said functionality over looks, no point getting an uncomfortable toilet bowl just becuz it's pretty lookin.. Hey, ur toilet bowl very nice leh, where and how much u bought it for? Hahaha.. I think I'm gonna skip the barcelona chair liao.. Wifey says not comfortable at all.. Hahaha.. We went to Barang Barang yesterday and saw another lounge chair, was $780 before 40% discount.. Think might be getting dat, but the problem is where to put it, cuz it's not like the barcelona chair, small and chic lookin.. Pondering whether to buy.. Anyways, Barang Barang having storewide sales, I asked the SA until when, he told me end of the month.. I think can go look at some decorative ornaments, some are buy 1 get 1 free, some are 70% off.. I think confirm not door.. Hahaha.. I took a look at the picture in my valuation report. Should be a window, there's a short curtain over it..

But WAH, Rain shower + 2 WCs and 2 Sinks for $450?!! SUPER BUDGET!! I think Im contradicting myself sia.. Looks over functionality.. HAhaha..

Thanks ashes02! Hmm.. Don't like the roundish toilet bowl leh.. Prefer a bit more squarish type.. Hahaha.. And not looking at this kindda sink, cuz have a vanity top in the mbr, and find them orbiang.. Hahaha.. But their other items also reasonable la? Thanka again anyways!

Anyone has any ideas for shoe rack? I was thinkin of asking Ah Soon to do up one at the left side (from the floor plan) of the door, below the windows.. Most of it around the height of the window frame and probably a section nearer the door to be lower so that we can sit on it.. Anyone has any bright ideas? The Eunos Unit one nice sia.. Seems like that area was made for the shoe cabinet sia.. Envious.. I don't have a design where I can pull off something like dat..
