We went to check out our house just now. It's almost completed. We saw some workers were fixing the wiring at the car park level. Now I eagerly waiting for the keys to be handled to us. We thought of going inside to take a look at the work done on landscaping. Too bad, the security guard disallow us to. Yeap, the guard house has security guard already and I think the design of the guard house is cool. I really can't wait to get the key and take a look of our unit. Let's keep the fingers crossed that everything will go smoothly.

Little Reminder
Wow...It's only July. Our house only ready next year but we received the letter on application for electricity and water utilities. What does this mean? More $$ needed... Yes...deposits have to be paid by mid of August. I am now experiencing what my dad experienced which is find ways to dig for money. Prioritize the expenses. Expenses that can be delayed may be postponed whereas the super high priority ought to be settled first. I shall set a reminder to remind me to visit the developer office.

Theme Colour
All this while, I have no idea of what colour shall my home's walls carry. I always tell people that my right brain is damaged as I am totally clueless about art and creativity. Unlike other people who definitely know what they want for their home, I have no idea at all.
Few days ago, a light bulb suddenly alighted from somewhere. It was actually I walked past this home which had its wall painted pink, a bit solid pink. Then, my mind started to crawl to my own home. I imagine painting my own wall pink - No way...too girlish. Then I imagine painting my wall light blue - No way....too boyish and too ordinary. Then I imagine painting it apple green, very light apple green - Yes.....its neutral and natural and green is good for eyes. So I told TY about my idea and he agreed. Ai....whatever not very bad he also agree gelah. Pointless asking his opinion also. If I suggest to paint our home "ap shi cheng" (duck sh*t green), then he may have some opinion geh...
OK....right now I shall search for this light apple green colour and think of what other furniture that can match this theme. Shall I come up with a theme for my house decoration like classic, oriental, bali and etc....?
Our home, Our nest
TY and I bought a new house in Jan 2007. It is estimated to be completed by the end of this year and most probably we can get the key early 2008. Coincidently, our unit is A20-08. So easy to remember. Since both of us are very young, thus we don't have much savings. We paid the 10% down payment with the sponsorship from parents. We didn't think much about budget for renovations or furnitures. All we want is a house to be our home. Both of us have been living away from home for nearly 6 years. We think that we have had enough of renting of rooms. Renting a room will never make the house your home. Some may feel that it's not a very wise decision to get yourself in a 30-year debt at an early age. But our thinking is, houses are getting expensive day by day and saving of more down payment from our fixed salary is almost impossible. I personally feel that the prices of houses hike much more faster than my money-saving rate. We are so looking forward to moving into our new home eventhough the budget for simple renovations and basic furnitures is no where to be seen. Hahaha!!
