Another lucky SOBF flatowners! Wished I was one of them.

Enjoy the wedding preps too! I miss my wedding loads, but at least now have reno to look forward to.

Yeaaah i was just a bit lucky to get a low queue no and i dopn't need to pay for the COV. With the wedding and stuffs like that, i don't think i can afford the COV! haha

I was enjoying the wedding preps until the flat comes by. lol

eh i miss the wedding preps more than the reno .. the reno is making me endless headaches and insonmia .. the wedding even the banquet doesnt cause me that much "effects" .. tight budget isnt nice ...

Quite true! My wedding preps are quite relaxing actually and so much more fun than dealing with contractors. lol

Some clearer pictures of our house:

We went to do some scrubbing and cleaning on the kitchen and toilet tiles cos it was so dusty and i didn't want the dust to settle themselves too comfortably and make it even harder for me to scrub it away.

Living Room:

This is where our TV and Sofa are gonna be. The view from the dining area.

We will be running the TV Cables from the other side of the room to this side instead.

HDB designs seriously s*cks sometimes. Like, why would people want to put their TV set near the window and the sofa so near to the door right?

That was where our TV was supposed to be since the Cable point and stuffs are there but such an awkward place to put the TV and the sofa, no?

Kitchen:

We're gonna put our kitchen cabinets at this side of the kitchen with the sink and the cooker cos i feel there's more ventilation.

The other side of the kitchen

From the service balcony

The filthy service balcony.

The cleaned version of the service balcony after my scrub-a-dub episode that left my arms aching.

Things to do really soon:

2. Get our Cooker and Hood.
   
3. Get more lightings for the living room and dining area
   
4. Get our paints and tools
