we've got it!

7th Dec 2011, we were told to prepare the money in exchange for the keys.

so yes, we rolled the pineapple and shouted HUAT ar! not forgetting also the sprinkles of rice and salt in every corners in the new place.

and the major kaching kaching kaching begins...

we met our one and only id and the contractor a few weeks before; they were strongly recommended by a couple of his friends and since a year or two ago, he had been saying that we have to get the same contractor when our time come.

talking to the contractor and discussing about our requirments, lifestyle vs the design and practicallity of the house is one headache, sourcing the furnishing is another, checking out the nitty-gritty details as simple as the toilet paper holder is another; in short, renovation is tough.

some happy photos to share, the view that we will wake up to everyday. :) and i love the windows!

 BUT before any renovation works can start at all, the first and most important thing to do is to check the house for defects and submit the list. another not so simple task! as he was concerned that the house might not be clean enough for us to spot the "defects", we went up to do its' first spring cleaning. while i'm with the broom, he's with the mop. spot maria tan and maria ong at work! it was super tiring.

tireds and i need my beauty sleep. till the next post! :)
