Hi... Are you in sold.sg with the same nick?

Each room have it's unique and refreshing colours!! Good choice.... Where did you get your dining light? Very pretty....

My tests didn't incl testing of unevenness. That only can be tested on big piece of tiles, not samples leh. Haiz.... So sad, after all the tests, in the end still .... :bangwall:

hahahaha.... you are very funny..... LOL my bro thinks i am crazy too to do all these tests....

hahaahha... sorry for not posting earlier. I use kitchen a lot and i know how "mah fan" it can be if oil, sauces + whatever spill unto the tiles then will be difficult to clean. I don't wash kitchen with buckets of water, i just wipe. that is why step 4 is to see whether normal mopping can clean the tiles or not. actually i did another step, which is to put the tiles on the floor near my bed and everyday i pass by i will look at it and see whether i can stand looking at it for days and days.

my internet is $80+ leh... also don't have such good deal!!! ok, next year will look out for this kind of deal.

oh its the recess area... i thought its another common room.

RENOVATION DAY 10 - STRESSFUL DAY I am not sure how tiles selections are done by you all. For me, i need to make sure the colour matches my overall theme and i will put through the tiles through "stress test". What i mean by "stress test"?? LOL 1) At the shop (soon bee huat / hafary), pour some water on top of the tile and use my feet to try to walk - to see whether slippery or not. 2) Those that are not slippery, take samples from the shop 2) pour oil, soya sauce (dark and light), ribena and whatever i can find in my kitchen 3) leave it overnight 4) use a cloth to wipe off the next day (gently, not scrubbing) 5) if it can come off easily, then can be considered for next test 6) use a marker and write on it 7) use another cloth and try to scrub it off with a little soap. 8) final test, use a little alcohol and rub on the tile. See whether the colour of the tiles will change sound difficult? well, i don't know any other way to make sure the tiles are slippery, easily cleaned and will not lose colour. After doing all these to 3 different tiles, i finally chosen the one for my living/dining/kitchen + bedrooms. BUT GUESS WHAT?? The tiles was delivered today and its uneven!!! So the tiler told my contractor then he called me to go down to have a look urgently. Went to see and really, the tiles are uneven... some are U-shaped and some are n-shaped. hhmmm.... was not really angry but stressed out. So quickly went to SBH again to choose another tile. This time, i only managed to do step 1... sob sob..... hopefully it will be ok!!!

no leh, i never fall off the bed. usually its my bolster, my blanket and my pillows that fall off if the bed is not big enough.... hehehee... and I am not showing off!!!

csingeu, i think your calculation is wrong lah. how can a room be 0.9x2.4m? 0.9m is super narrow, only as big as a doorway.... ya, 1sqm doesn't make that much of a different... hehehe....

there are different type of 4 room. 4-S are the smallest, usually about 82-85sqm, 4NG is the medium type where its around 92sqm and 4-A is the biggest, about 100-110sqm.

somehow when i was there, it doesn't look at big. i also don't know how come the sqm seem quite big to fit in 2 king mattresses and a WIW.

yes yes i know.... i am very happy with it already. of course i would love to have it even bigger.

already on leave for few days, good enough lah. hehehehe.... so good to get xbox from maxonline? i can only renew mine next march. i hope i will get something nice too... hehehehe.....

what you type sound very simple but each psf especially kitchen cabinet, kitchen island, feature wall, etc are all by psf. very difficult to judge... just get a few to know whether that is the going rate.

Today will see the cabinet go up in kitchen?? excited?

don't think he will lah. wife not around this weekend.... the most, he will go check out sanitary wares... that also will give him a big big headache already. hehehehee....

alone lah!!! but prepare just in case my best friend or my sisters want to come here for holiday.

eggroe, both marshy and myself are christians. That is why we don't play with $$$$ its really not a trap lah.. oh, good idea!! i should ask my contractor to paint the cove lighting "longkang" in different colour as well.

eggroe, i am not showing off.. its really not that big if you look at the sqm. yours is a condo leh... don't tell me your master bedroom is not big loh... i will have 1/3 as wardrobe and 2/3 to put my bed loh.... i am gg to have 2 king size mattresses on platform in my MBR.

Ely, i calculated your area as well. yours is 35sqm!!! so its definitely bigger than mine. and i calculated this excluding the toilet area....

ya, it does look big.... but if i look at the area, its only 5.5mx6.2m = 34sqm (367 sqf). so its not that big lah... hehehe...

how much if add everything?

have to take leave lah, or else everything to do on my own, i will go crazy loh... hehehehe.... you still haven't get PR? better get it soon then... i hope he will loh.... everyday also pray everything will finish on time without problem and yet will still be as beautiful as i imagine. hehehehe.... no lah, i also complaint before cos they did reno on sat. hehehe.... so not only condo will get complaint, hdb also will get complaint. quite normal lah....but you are right, my hacking are all done. hahahaha.... trap??? what trap? i don't know any trap leh. hehehehe.....

ya loh, i also have a lot to settle leh.... you think you alone?? hahaha..... i have so many things, i will take many days off just to settle the moving. cos i told my contractor i need to move in by end of april. or else i got no place to stay.... that is why he make sure everything is one after another without delay. hopefully really true lah.... oh please lah.... hdb is worse. Anyone complaint to hdb, my contractor have to stop work. after 5pm and at weekends also cannot work loh.... not condo only have this problem!! so confident?? ok loh.... then you try to collect more fund for your digital lock lah. hehehehehe....
