Another update

We bought some of our furniture in JB last week. Spent about 2.8K for the following items:
  • 3-seater sofa
  • Shoe cabinet
  • Dining table + 6 chairs
  • TV console
  • Coffee table
  • 2 x 4-tier chest drawers
Next, we went to choose our wedding photos yesterday.. and we topped up about 3k for another 30 poses... I know that we were being kinda "cheated".. but the photos were really nice for us to give up! Haha. We threw away a lot of course, and after much bargaining (with sis as well - she went along with us) we settled for the amount. That's the gimmicks for bridal studios.. but photos are really the only items they use to earn profit eh.

Today, we went audio house to buy our electronics. we spent 3.3K for the following items:

40' Samsung LCD


Samsung Home theatre system


Philips sound bar

Samsung 7.5kg washer


Fisher and paykel 5kg Dryer

KDK standing fan


KDK wall mount fan x 4



Toshiba 401L fridge


Original price should add up to around 5k .. but because we are using DBS credit card promotion - spend 2K in a single receipt will have $800 rebate... So we have 2 x 2K receipts and so we saved 1.6K in total! BUT there's a condition that we have to spend 18K within 12 months for the $800 rebate.. and hence, we have to spend 36K for 1.6K rebate.... understand? Haha. Well in case you might be wondering, how can I spend 36K within 12 months? Well, the answer to that is, we will be holding our wedding banquet this year! So we will hit the target. =)

So happy that many things are settled.. but those bills coming up will be tedious! Need to continue to save up!

Thank you, Daddy!

Dad went to fix the lights in my new house today. He went early in the morning, even before I woke up. We got to the house around 11.30am and dad already started on the 2nd downlight. Doing downlights on L-box were really tough. Never realized that until I saw dad doing. He had to measure, draw, saw, withstand all those fine particles raining down and breathing in those harmful particles. He got to ensure that all those lights were in line, going up and down the ladder, connecting wires and switches etc etc. When fixing those lights that we bought, he had to figure out how to fix them up, drill holes through the ceiling and many more. Right now, everything is in place. One word, NICE!

Tmr (i think) dad will be going up again to change all the door knobs to handles, change the lock on the main door and gate, fix up the ventilator in the master toilet, and change the key of the letterbox.

Thanks Dad for having a part in fixing up my house. Sorry for asking you to do all those tough job. 辛苦了!

Re! hotel

The gathering just now was great. Although the topics revolved around the same thing, we just wouldnt get tired of it. :)

Re! hotel looks like another hotel 81, with retro theme. Food wise, so so.. and price, reasonable.

Short update on my house.

Just a short update of my house, currently most of the cabinets in my house are up. Except the top cabinet in the kitchen.. only the body is up, coz the laminate we chose were out of stock, and they will only be glueing those laminate up when the stock arrives. I love the laminate on my wardrobe. Just hope that I wont get tired when i look at it everyday. haha~

We had bought the lights for master and living room, kitchen and 2 toilets from lightings.com.sg.. will wait until the ID instruct to install.

Everything is still on schedule.. so should be getting the house in the end of the month!

Events for the next few days

Tonight will be going down to my house again to see the progress. As the reno schedule is pushed slightly forward (that means i can get my house sooner), I'm not sure what are they fixing on right now. If it's pushed slightly forward, I guess I should see the deliveries of the kitchen accessories, as well as my ID calling me to get the payment. After that, I'll be going down to JP to collect my phone that had been sent to repair, probably 4 weeks ago. It's finally done eh. Been waiting for soooo long. haha

Tmr will be our company event - watching Iron Man 2 in GV grand, Gold class! Yippee~! Nice. Too bad dear is in Taiwan right now, and he is thinking of catching the movie there. BUT he's unsure whether the show will be dubbed in chinese, which is, erm.. lame. haha.

Friday will be Ying's Bday celebration BBQ.. but I'm not sure where yet. She mentioned that it will be at east coast.. but no details yet. -_- will be texting her to confirm again.

Saturday! Dear will be coming back. hee. Will be fetching him by car (yes, this time he remembered to pass me the key) and then visit the house again... but then, he will be flying off in just a few days from there. -_-

OK thats all for the events for the next few days.

He's back... and he's flying again.

Dear came back this afternoon and I took train to go meet him. Yeah, I didnt have his car key, so I couldnt drive to fetch him. It's ok. Taxi fare can be claimed.

He went home, took a shower and off we went to pick up his shoes he left in the bridal studio 2 weeks ago, after our photoshoot. Then we went to Northwest to choose our laminate for our cupboard, the vanity top, and the interior layout of our wardrobe. After that, we went to our new house to see the progress and then we went westmall to see if the offer for lenovo pc for maxonline is still on. Too bad the offer is over. =( Lastly, we went west coast plaza to have Dian Xiao Er. =)

We sorta travelled a lot today.. I enjoy dear being back with me.. BUT he's flying to Taiwan for biz trip again tmr noon. He told me after his Taiwan trip (returning on next sat) he may have to fly off again.

SO... time for me to buy the season parking ticket for my house.... so that i can use the car as and when i like. :)
