We've got a new home!

I know there are not many updates for the past few months... really not in the mood to blog.

Just as we're about to close off 2009, we made a very big decision... to purchase a new home!

For those friends around me know how much I hated hougang, I was literally counting down to move out of this area! But the comfort side is, we have great neighbours. From the day we move in till now they never fail to keep a lookout of our home!! But we know its really time for us to move. We're going to move to Clover By the Park in Bishan.

It was the week before Christmas that Colin ask me to call the developer's agent to kpo if there's any unit that faces the park (all the park facing unit were sold out within 2 weeks when it was launched!). This agent say he has a unit thats not advertise in the market and say will contact me to meet up with me (he refuse to disclose any details over the phone) Throughout that week I called a couple more agents but none of them has park facing unit.

It was 2 days before Christmas, the first agen really called me and we agreed to meet on Christmas day! After getting more details, I was really tempted to throw in my offer but hold back! For the next 2 days was really a struggle for us, buy or not buy! Looking thru URA website the pricing seems reasonable, we even have nitemare! I finally gave my offer 2 days later just to test water.. after all the hoohaa we sealed the deal.

After sealing the deal was also the beginning of my next nitemare, trying very hard to get loan from the bank!!

We've since exercised the option and paid the downpayment + stamp duty (I know why IRAS is so damn rich!) We're now just waiting for the developer to announce the TOP date! We are really counting down now!

I have a bitter & sour feeling now, to bid a sad farewell to my nice neighbours in a year's time, we hope to have such nice neighbours in the next nest

In loving memory of my beloved Lassie

I almost forgot about it! How can I forgot such an important date!?!?

2 yrs have passed... I still can vividly remember how everything happens. I really miss you so much!!!

*pls teach twinkle how to pee properly on the pee tray, we're really tired of punishing her everyday!*

Just for laugh

Recently my brain got occupied by too many unhappy news, so decided to blog something on a happier note.

I'm amazed with the conversation between my sis & her princess Shyenne

Mummy - Shyenne, you quicky finish your dinner I buy you a present

Shyenne - I want a computer for my present!!

Mummy - *speechless for awhile* why do you need a computer?

Shyenne - I can use the computer to learn ABC!! (Ya right, more like use computer to surf disney site to play games)

Mummy - But I got no money to buy computer

Shyenne - You can go bank take money, bank got a lot of money!!

Mummy - *speechless till no respond*

She's only 3.5 yrs old and already can have such conversation with mummy, when she turn 5 yrs old. Dare not think what she'll say then.

All along she's been using my dad's laptop to play games. My sis got fedup with her long hours of using the comp & decided to put password, so everyday she'll wait for my dad to reach home so that she can use the laptop. I derive that if she have her own comp, she can use all day & nobody can use it!!

Another cold war

I'm not angry over a cup of drink. More of cannot sink into the reality of the upcoming treatment. I'm not mentally prepared neither am i physically ready. I really just want to go to a nobody island. Just me living alone with no disturbance. Another appt coming in 1 month time. Can i dun go? The thoughts alone is enough to lead me into depression. Right now just using work to occupy my mind. I'm a different me now. I'll no longer be able to communicate my mind freely. No one will ever understand the amount of stress i'm going thru. The end!

The Dreaded Cough!

I last saw my GP on 25/6, I went to visit him yesterday again! I barely recover for 2 weeks & I caught the flu + cough bug again!! I requested for 2 bottles of cough syrup & he gave 2 types of pills to open up my airway in case my asthma acts up!!! I'm really dreading this stupid cough!!!


*To the irrating bug - Just leave me alone!!!!!!

Disappointed

We've been waiting for the project at amk central to launched. Every time we drive past, I'll peep at the showflat. For close to a year, we're just waiting!

Finally on Sat I saw the advertisement, first question I ask the agent is the pricing. Average $1k per sq feet is something we cannot swallow, I did a very conservative calculation on the monthly instalment. It would cost us $5k per mth!!!!

This project is now offically strike out of our list, we'll still go & kpo at the showflat (this has become our favourite pass time now).

Bye bye Centro!

Depression

Not too sure how one can get depression. Now I can finally understand!

I'm suspecting myself slipping into depression. Last week saw Dr Soong again, my odds at 40:60. Quite high for me to say. Walk out of the clinic, cannot help feeling depressed. I try my best to occupy my mind, but still fail if I divert my attention back to the consultation at the clinic.

I can feel my eyes swell up with tears, but at the same time cannot let Colin see lest he gets worried.

I have 2 mths to mentally prepared myself. I can do it!!!!!! Once I hold my baby in my arms, all effort is worth it!!!!
