Hacking has started and currently it is the tail end of the waterproofing process. They have started laying some tiles already, notably that of the Mbr and common bathroom.

It's also dark. I can't take a photo yet coz it's all covered up, but will take one when they removed the cardboard floor protector.

cant wait to see it all done up....

Haha, thank you. I'm also eagerly waiting myself.

Things seem to be slowing a bit, but I figure that I would rather that more time is taken to do the waterproofing and tiling works rather than rush through and then have problems in the future.

As thing are kinda quiet, I thought that I would post some of my other misc purchases.

First up will be my fridge. As mentioned in an earlier post, most of my major kitchen appliance are from Teka. The fridge is also from there. Why not a standalone, my ID wanted to have the fridge hidden like in a lot of modern condos. I am open to the idea. I don't need all that much fridge space coz I don't cook and all I need is the frdge to hold my drinks, ice cream and any emergency food supplies if I get the case of  the munchies in the middle of the night.

This is my sofa. As I spend a lot of time on the sofa, I wanted something that was super comfy.  I was looking around for one and I actually had my heart set on a sofa from Originals Furniture. But when I went to their store, they were out of stock. I carried on looking and remembered seeing a few ads for King Living. So I went to check it out and they were having a 50% off certain models. So after testing the sofas, I bit the bullet and got a super comfy one. I had the option to pay for this mechanism that would make the sofa recline even more but I decided against it as I read a few Australian reviews that the mechanism got spoiled quite easily. My sofa will be in dark gray.

I also went mattress shopping. I am a really light sleeper and very sensitive to irregularities in my mattress, e.g. lumps. I wanted to get something which would make me sleep so soundly that I will be late for work every day.  I used to use Sealy Hotel series and they are extremely comfortable even though they are a bit pricey. But I have been reading about this brand called Omazz and how theirs is using full latex. So I went to their gallery at Parkmall. I tried it out and I was hooked. Mind you, this is the day after I went to try the Sealy mattresses and I was already about to pay for the Sealy mattress. So, I was really impressed by this brand which even the salesman at some of the big name stores have never heard off. Price-wise, it was actually very slightly cheaper than the Sealy mattress which I wanted and I got 2 pillows and a mattress protector thrown in for free. So, I got it.

That's it for now. Hopefully more will be done for my reno this week so that we can return to the main event.

Have a good week ahead guys!

Mid-week update. 

Kitchen floor tiles have been laid. I used the same tiles for the kitchen and utility area. (Photos sent by my ID so I have not had the chance to go see the quality of the laying of tiles yet.)
