decisions.

How merepek is this?!
I drafted a blog entry about Mizz. Nina's wedding, got distracted and in the end deleted the entry. -.-

Yesterday we had to head down to H.D.B for the unit selection. For the past few weeks, we've been at odds with each other about the house. Thought I'll be relaxed, turns out I was the fussy one! Everything also don't want, nak tingkat tinggi, taknak tepi tong sampah, ni taknak, tu taknak- semua tak kene! Doesn't help that my prefered units were already booked. :(

After countless discussions and outbursts, we short listed another 4 units and Alhamdullilah, we got our first choice!

So gotta wait another 4 months till we sign the lease agreement. :) Now that the house issue is more or less settled, I can concentrate more on the wedding.Haven't been making any progress for the wedding. I've been looking around and now I'm thinking of engaging a freelance MUA instead of a bridal house. -.-

Keep changing my mind about the bridal house. Sigh, must really decide and do all the necessary bookings next year. Reading about bad experiences from other brides scares me too especially when the negative reviews involve the vendor I'm planning to engage. :( I have yet to have nightmares about the wedding but tak lama lagi confirm termimpi mimpi, haha. :p

daun hijau.

Been pretty busy and distracted by the usuals- work, FB, twitter and warding off the dreaded flu. I'm still feeling like crap. :( It's SOP for me to fall sick every month, I don't even bother going to the doctor now. Good luck to him, hahahahahahaha.

Anyhoos, we've been discussing about the house. Printing the necessary forms and going to H/D/B hub to view the show rooms. I AM THRILLED but not so thrilled to see my CPF statement after everything has been settled.

Realised we're both quite fussy when it comes to choosing units. Tak nak ni, tak nak tu, nak ni, nak tu. Tak bleh ni, tak bleh tu. Pitch a tent kat East Coast sudah kalau cerewet sangat. Hahahahaha, tapi I believe we HAVE to be choosy in these kind of things! Pasal ape tau, this is a long term commitment! So must really make sure we're comfortable with the block and unit we're choosing.

I'm all for practicality. The block I prefer is near the main road and bus stop. I don't really like blocks that are too dalam because-
1) it's gonna be too quiet at night and it scares me.
2) people visiting my house will have to walk out for a cab.
3) people visiting my house have to walk a distance to the bus stop. hahahahaha.

The current place I'm staying in is very the dalam and sunyi despite being opposite PIE. I hate it, I'm not saying that it should be noisy as hell but atleast tak lah sunyi sangat. Like I said, we trooped down to H/D/B Hub and I thought I was kiasu, sekali ade lagi yang kiasu ah. Ade sampai bawak compass and orang feng shui semua hahahahahahaha.

My boss reminded me about afternoon sun. I don't care about afternoon sun cos my current house always kena afternoon sun, so I'm used to it. Besides there's always the aircon, fan and curtains what.

Then tak nak dekat multi storey carpark, taknak dekat tong sampah- dah cakap dah, pitch a tent sudah. Hahahahaha but I know the "implications" of staying near a multi storey carpark. Nanti malam malam some inconsiderate twat will perah perah his bike and make noise. So ngada ngada right!! But hopefully our preferred unit will not be taken up, Insyallah.

Saw the finishes too, pretty! But I prefer C/o/s/t/a R/i/s' finishes. So pretty, got seashells! Nice ceramic flooring and timber skirtings! Eeeee, cannot wait ah!!

Invite.

Our HDB invitation package arrived yesterday. :D

Soooo surreal to see our names on the envelope. Hahaha, how funny it is that 2 years ago, when I first saw him, I was like -.- and wasn't even the least interested in him. Fate, I guess... :)

My parents were super excited, they kept reminding me to print out all the necessary documents for our appointment next month. If everything goes well, the house will be my most expensive purchase EVERRRR. The price of a 4 room is quite melampau ah just cos it's a mature estate. For my friends who didnt succeed in this round of BTO, it's ok! I'm sure they will be building more BTOs in mature estates soon. Tak sia sia I vote opposition, kasi pressure sikit hahahaha.

But paling important now is to save save and SAVE! :'(

i'm coming home.

You know what I look forward to after a difficult day at work? Going home.

And I can't wait for a place to call my own.


Alhamdullilah. We managed to get a queue number for the upcoming Tampines BTO. EAST SIDE FOREVAAAAAA!!!!

Insyallah things will go smoothly. One thing I'm not looking forward to is...my CPF statement. All wiped out, jialat!
