I don't mind, I love the IKEA hotdogs...just that bread makes me very sleepy.... And gosh, I'm so glad that my performance is over! The weekend was completely tiring, because we spent so much time attending workshops and dancing until 2am for 3 days straight... OUCH! But then again, this may not be the end of it all, because we're discussing taking this to the Hong Kong Salsa Festival next! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

reglxt 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2010 Day god-only-knows-what: occupants needed So... For those who were wondering, the handover WAS on time! Yes, that, alongside training, was what was keeping me from coming online. All the shifting in, etc... my house is steadily becoming messier, and I'm longing for the days where there was absolutely NOTHING in the house! But too bad, unless I one day have so much money that I can buy a huge house where I can keep most rooms empty (hey, one can always dream)... in the meantime, my house will just have to serve its function as the place where Pinkhubby and I keep all our stuff. Pardon the messiness, we are still unpacking... Let's start with the foyer The shoe cabinet is in. We put it in the corner there because 1) behind the door, it keeps getting whacked. I don't want to cause a dent on my new things so soon! The seating bench next to it is actually one of our old pieces of furniture from IKEA. It served as our old TV/PC bench when the PC was still outside. Since it was too good to throw away, we saved it with this in mind. Dining table is in too! We're going to purchase a matching piano-white seating bench for the times when we have guests over. Kitchen with the orange backsplash. Yes, the gas cylinder issue has been rectified, along with the pull-out basket. On to the study... This is Pinkhubby's room (at least for now). Needless to say, it's already messy. We're going to get one more item from IKEA here, which is a white cabinet above. I'm very mindful of overloading that shelf. And that is HIS pink netbook there. The other side of the room holds his display cabinet, with his toys inside. The second shelf is filled with my collectibles. Hey babe! congrats to you ! love your WIW and kitchen cabinet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edward 0 Report post Posted November 18, 2010 Congrats with the hand over. Your kitchen is very nice, particularly the orange backlash. It goes very well with yr white cabinets. Your toilet glass door is very interesting too. How much did you pay for the glass door? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yuene 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2010 Hey babe! congrats to you ! love your WIW and kitchen cabinet Thanks reglxt! I see your reno is progressing well too! When's your projected HO? Congrats with the hand over. Your kitchen is very nice, particularly the orange backlash. It goes very well with yr white cabinets. Your toilet glass door is very interesting too. How much did you pay for the glass door? Hi edward, Thanks! I took a big gamble with the orange backsplash, because the rest of my house is... well... quite white! I was actually toying with going with the usual greenish-tinted glass, but decided to take the plunge after (in a small voice) I thought that the house would look too terribly boring... Glad the gamble paid off My glass door was $480 (not very cheap, I think... but I'll live with it) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
