Entry 1: my upcoming new home!!

yesterday morn, elvis called me at abt 8.30am.
E: guess wat?
me: wat?
E: we got the place!

WE GOT THE PLACE!! albeit on the costlier side. but we got the place! its pretty farnie how we chose this place.

Its a 13th storey, 5I flat, with 'unblocked' view, N-S facing. In fact, it was the FIRST flat we viewed. That time, we weren't impressed with the 'unblocked' view. I din like a column in the living room. That column actually made me consider to get an EM rather than a 5-room flat in the neighborhood.

So just last weekend, we went to view two flats again. Since I super bad with numbers, I actually did not rem the block nos. of the flats we viewed (not even a previous one we made an offer for!). So when we went to the 13th storey, I stepped into the recess area and was like.. hey.. very familiar... just like the first one we saw (more than a month ago) i stepped into the flat and thot wow... the layout is so similar... let's see that difference this place has ... until i turned to a wall beside the dining table and saw a photo portrait of an elderly indian lady. i was 'stunned' for a moment... HEY.. we've been here before!! the first place!

see, the first time we viewed it, it was handled by an agent. we only viewed the place to see the layout of 5I flats. We weren't even interested in it in the first place because of the asking price. that day, the owner was selling it without an agent. in other words, we dealt with 2 persons, hence we did not noe it was the same unit.

i was even more alert than elvis. he did not even noe it was that unit! ha ha.. when he asked me to take a look at the kitchen, and asked me whether it was big enough for me, i thot he was just kidding and pretending! ha ha...

anywayz, the second time round, we really liked the place. i guess after 'shopping' ard looking at the other flats, we learnt to see more out of this. sometimes its farnie how God brings us round so that we can appreciate things better. in fact, i thot, wah, if we ever got this unit, it will be God lor.. and it IS GOD!! ha ha.. so am praying that this will be our love nest with God... and praying that we will be able to bless others with this space in the future. :) i wanna throw parties!!! ha ha...
