think we all super excited coz all went to our nest today mah just realised that nostalgia, another forummer, also from our cluster but seems inactive liao

hi compassvale, mind sharing your MBR toilet photos again? can't seem to see them in your blog FS aside, facing another door is better now me also headache got to find something to block coz pple walking home will look directly into my living then if my mum take afternoon nap on the sofa can see loh somemore if sofa dun put there SCV and power point got to shift

pix time (just more of my tiles) from main door more from main door nice grouting dining from balcony living from balcony now that i have more or less confirmed the grille contractor and main contractor the next thing to think about is what colour to paint my walls any suggestions? my furniture are mainly rosewood/teak and a black leather sofa

i can't really tell coz i never study psychology but read all those articles always imply that problems adults faced can be traced back to childhood could be he had been traumatised by the parents' divorce but had no one to turn to somemore elder boy sure grandparents say things like 'you are a boy, must be strong, cannot cry, must show good example to brother' so keep everything inside now that he is married, he wants to ensure that he will not end up like his parents these are all my inferences so cannot be taken seriously hor

not very sure until when but think tomorrow will definitely still have your blog is titled cow barn mah you will move in b4 before your AD or your AD is before 7th month? most likely i'll be the last to move in unless jaren is joining us... kekeke now downloading some pix i took today actually it's just more of my tiles

guess that's another reason why i'm rather reluctant to get married parents nag not enough, still got in-laws to nag i abit patang lah, somemore it's for my parents dun want anything bad to happen to them loh my own room dun have this kind of restriction and good thing coz got one wall without beam, can put bed and look out through the full-ht windows

actually there is a shop at the eunos techlink that sells quite cheap teak furniture also a two-feet opium table was going at $99 think the price is more or less similar to wihardja wihardja things are not one-piece only, and they can deliver when you require it's just that i find the workmanship for the showroom pieces already cmi, what more to say of those they deliver...

this husband is very insecure loh if he ever consult a psychiatrist sure will find out young time got problem one most prob he is the middle child so no love from parents

went to the tangs sale just now, the cups that i was eyeing was on 50% sale it's three cups that can be stacked on top of one another, in cats prints so i quickly grabbed two sets, $14.90 each set so 50% discount means buy one get one free another good buy is a set of two cups and saucers at $5 (after discount) think bluberi should get a set. coz it's in moo moo prints not sure if we have the same layout but for my MBR, if bed face the door means head will be under window not so good leh somemore evening sun comes in through the window so bed will become very hot also bcoz of the two wardrobes, one is existing and we bought another one both are 1.6m wide and 0.6m deep so difficult to find space then the toilet door and window is right smack in the middle of the wall, so none of the wardrobe can be at either wall can't imagine how the HDB architects actually passed their exams...

my parents usually leave their door open so shouldn't have any problem frames changed bcoz the three bedroom doors are side-by-side, so might be a little more obvious so now compassvale has move in, bluberi most prob moving in after AD? me hoping to move in before 7th month. so likely our little gathering will be held in 7th month? then we can tell ghost stories liao... kekeke think bcoz of all the beams, the MBR is actually the smallest room even when compared to the study

mine is the giovanni from court 3+2+1 seater in full leather, $1,099 including guarantee on parts and seams will post a pix when it's delivered

the panggiap people very bad one loh called me in the evening to apologise about his guy being late and ask to make another appt. when i told them i dun go down very often, he actually said this to me 'erm you have animals right? you also dun want anything to happen to them right?' i was like what do you mean by that? are you cursing my babies? so angry with them actually only MBR door will open into the passageway, coz need the space behind the door for my parents' two big wardrobe. but since changing one, might as well change all. also, another forummer told me that our unit wind quite strong and things rust very fast. so the door frames are all metal, better change now coz once the tiles are laid changing the frames will crack the tiles. luckily my bf reminded me that we need to change the doors... it's a very complicated process loh, firstly people who supply doors don't do hacking works. then the frame must be removed before the tiles are laid. my contractor is charging me $300 just to remove the frames and make good the walls. then the frames will cost me $120 each. and i will only know the door price when i go down to the place to choose the door sigh... more and more things to be done but my salary seems to be stagnant leh, how???

the mover should be providing them right? if not ask around to see anyone bought things and going to discard the box really no choice then pop by nearby NTUC to find the cardbox waste-bin i know there's one at the tanjong pagar NTUC, near the food centre

hi bluberi, good thing you didn't drop by today the tiler was still working and the noise of him cutting the tile is deafening think i'm half-deaf liao coz all doors closed so that neighbours dun complain i have absolutely no idea when i'll be moving in coz after the tiles are done ms ng of hdb will arrange for the aluminium contractor to come change the window pane, then do an acid wash of the unit. if the stains on the kitchen/toilet tiles cannot be cleaned, hdb will hack and relay the affected areas. if the stains on the WCs cannot be cleaned, it will be changed after the hacking works are all done. after all these, then i can start my own renovation. only the supreme being will know when i'm moving in today went down to meet a few contractors quite angry with the panggiap guy. the appt was at 2pm, called around 2:35 to tell me he lost my address and asked for it. told him no need to come liao. the one from wing shing was early and he quote me $970 for all grilles (excl toilets) with max. 3" gap. the other from another company quote me $1.1k for 3" gap, $1.3k for 2.5" gap and he was late. appt at 1:30pm, when i called up at 1:40 the guy had the guts to say he forgot. since i was waiting for the wing shing guy, just waited loh. so going with wing shing coz the guy quite sincere and the price is good anyone can comment on their works? btw, will be hacking away all the bedrooms doors and frame changing to wooden ones coz the MBR door needs to be opened out into the passageway and since doing one, might as well do all

eh so that means the cabinet in question dun have to be taller than main-door, just wider right? or MUST be taller AND wider?

try decorille they do windows and doors

but really must check very carefully coz the workmanship really cmi the screws are protruding from behind so if you buy anything with drawers, remember to take out the whole drawer and look behind

me on 7th flr will be at the unit between 1:30 to 2:15 tomorrow feel free to drop by though there's nothing to see except the super ugly kitchen tiles and my nice nice living tiles !!

btw, wihardja is open again this weekend think this sale will last around 10 days it's in today's ST, with the branch location !!

nothing much to update except that i'll be meeting THREE! contractors tomorrow for the window grilles will be getting patrick to install the windows for me coz he is the cheapest compared to the over $1k quotes i've been receiving so now only need to find the grilles contractor hopefully those i'm meeting tomorrow can give me a solution will take pix of the tiling works done so far the worker told me should complete everything by monday or tuesday so likely living and dining are already tiled. upload the pix tomorrow !!

aiyoh so sayang !! why dun you try to sell the storage bed, maybe a little discount off the original price think there should be takers. the platform bed is so much nicer

excerpts from HDB website 'To sublet the whole flat, prior approval from HDB is needed. For subletting of rooms, no approval from HDB is required but flat owners must continue to live in the flat during the period of subletting and comply with other subletting conditions.' so sublet whole MUST get approval on the illegal immigrant issue, as long as the person you sublet the whole unit to is not illegal immigrant can liao. if he/she further sublet to others, the person who will be prosecuted is the sub-lessee, nothing to do with you. but you must prove that all along you are only dealing with this sub-lessee and have no idea that others are residing in your unit.

eh so that means the cabinet in question dun have to be taller than main-door, just wider right? or MUST be taller AND wider?

dunno how to my floor plan below, possible to help or not??? MBR window is facing dead west
