pinkpetter 0 Report post Posted April 27, 2009 mmm I think fengshui should be customised for different people. it shouldn't be a one size fit all thing. If you believe in fengshui then we all have different characters so have to have things custom fitting us. Books are all general things ba. If you believe in your FSM then don't worry.

stage 0 Report post Posted April 28, 2009 Sales talk, price war blar...was we encountered in AB, GC, BT. Every competitor seems to have each other's details & price, E.g GC has BT piping & use that as comparison. AB has GC copper and showed us, and hinted that GC could have changed the label. AB even have the invoice of GC and made us read the terms & conditions of GC, which does have much hidden clause. Thanks for sharing, never thought that buying aircon need so much knowledge.

If you're into fengshui, then maybe you want to postphone your reno to next month, since you've already waited for so long , what is another month then.

Pet is right that FS advice in a way is unique for each person due to the bazi. Our FSM took our whole family Bazi to calculate the recommended reno date. He also use our Bazi to advise us which area is suitable for what, e.g he choose rooms for boys base on their bazi, the direction of their bedhead, the area best for them to study etc. FSM advice to us is the importance of the day supersedes the importance of the hour, with regards to us asking him what time should we "dong tu".

risis 0 Report post Posted May 1, 2009 will postpone the reno by 1 wk, for piece of mind:) my contractor says, perhaps is a blessing in disguise, we got more time for everything. I guess its true. We've been so stressed up. Theres so many things to do, to buy, to think. Update on my pinky kitchen: my contractor wasnt satisfied with the last choice of pink & white tiles, as it really wasnt pink enough or white enough.. SO he said he will find time to go defu lane and comb the place. But he added a veryvery cute comment "i think it is harder than buying grasshoper concert tickets"..hhehehehehehe So i waited for a day, and the very next day, he send me a mail with the pictures.. 1 & 2 are the tiles we chose last week. The cream colored 'white' tile and very light pink 'pink' tiles 3 & 4 are the tiles he found in defu lane its definately more pink! and veryvery qiao...this was the kind of pink i tot i wanted for kitchen floor, coz its more retro.. Table top thinking of using this white table top-> he did one in grey table top too. Pink kitchenware Gosh...i am so excited over the pink kitchenware!!! i almost wanted to buy them back...until i remember.. "GREAT SINGAPORE SALE" is coming.... i must be patient...
