Too excited, wife n me forgot to take precious pics while waiting in queue to go into HDB Officer's room for our completion yesterday, so while leavig car park... we took this

Had purchased all the necessary items for our Door Opening prayers in the morning.... and finally, we reach the car park of our block.... cannot describe the type of feeling that we are actually opening the door of our own home the very first time .... all these, after 10 yrs together in our relationship....

One of our neighbour's cat is looking at us, "the newcomers" curiously from far

Placing the "Ong Lye" carefully outside our unit, standing by for "Roll my Ong Lye" ceremony.... wife is very nice to let me roll the "Ong Lye" One may not get to do this ceremony many times in his/her lifetime.. ... and we enjoyed every second of it .. ...

Luckily, "Ong Lye" stopped in the middle of flat, which we heard is a good thing

Life for most Singaporeans is all about this moment isn't it... we study hard in School, we work hard, we fell in love with our SO, and we applied to get our very own house.. ... this is the moment.... for wife n me, after 10 yrs together , we hope that this place will bring us lots of laughters n good time together...

I'll be sharing some photos of our unit we took yesterday : from other angle and perspectives , as the previous photos were taken in a rush before our completion .. .. ....

Living area from Balcony :

View of Living n Balcony :

we intend to platform up the living area after the staircase wall using laminate wood so as to create a more cosy living/TV area... choosing the correct laminate wood tone will be a challenge

We're quite glad that the parquet floor on the upper level, upon close scrutiny by wife yesterday, is really in good condition.... we'll only need to polish and re-varnish them .... save quite alot here.. ...

only thing here is the old fashioned arch doors but we are keeping the doors for now due to cost savings and also the fact that they are in good condition, hope painting them white will do the trick

2nd floor passageway :

Common room (This common room share a same wall to the common toilet, we are contemplating pulling down the wall to create a link toilet :

Bro Csingeu, HOW CAN U NOT BE INVITED ? and i think I'm visiting your place before u come over

Yes Bro, I'm happy that I can save on the 2nd level... and bro personally, the only thing about Gen 2 that i don't like is no place for drying laundry anyway, the contractor is starting to dismanlte the kitchen cabinets today, will post more pics for sure Bro , u too, post more pics of your place after your Exams
