is ur place at JW 900plus there? seem like one of ur room had been taken aways by the HSS

Woo..3 + 2... that is a hefty sum of money... really must do more research le.. My carpentry works are just done up today.. rest of the wk, probably be doing some touching up etc.. once everything cleaned up... if you want, u can drop by next week to try our aircon. If you notice, we dun even have a door at the kitchen to stop the cool air from escaping.. we dun intend to get it really cold.. just cool enough for hot days..

Dining..yes.. Ermm... whether take long anot...not very sure leh... coz was only fixed on last week.. we only on for like 3-4 times coz everywhere still very dusty, now doing carpentry works.. will monitor when we on it the next time....

So far so good.. we stand at the corridor window still can feel the cool air... stand at our bombshelter door there can feel the wind blowing... Our Fan coil unit capacity is 26,000 BTU... normally, for HDB living rm, 22/24 should be good enough... According to the Allbest uncle who attended to us.. 26 is cater for semi-d's living room le.. since he can give us free upgrade, we just take in case 24 cannot do the job .....btw, we also upgraded the pipings... which is for condo's concealed piping... but we didn't conceal lah..therefore, can see our trunking is thicker than the usual... due to bad exp at our own parents' home.. so we KS abit now...

So far my unit no. also no 4D luck… no habit to buy but we monitor… sounds weird.. Haha.. Anyway, for my block… no sighting of bats… only noisy monsters (kids) running amok in the void deck…..is enough...

Wooo.. a bat, it's like one of the more exotic guests around.. you must be very lucky..must buy 4D le.. I hope it doesn't have any other relatives or frens living in the neighourhood...

Dear all, Lighting's contact already PM le.. kindly check

Lights Part 2! Downlights x 11 nos Bedrm light Kitchen / Toilet / Bombshelter light - side track abit... something interesting we discovered while hacking off the pipe box-up earlier… notice the blue circle in below picture... it's actually pink tiles being overlay by our current yellow tiles.. I wonder what went wrong… quite a waste of time and money right to overlay everyone’s kitchen… we've got quite a no. of blocks here… actually I prefer the pink to the yellow… quite a sweet color… WIW wall light Dining Lights - but in black

Hi payretep... thanks and good luck in your reno for your dream country-theme home.. More M & E photos.. Aircon - starmex inverter sys 4 (9+9+9+26) 56" Ceiling Fan - fanco acrylic blades Foyer light Bedrm corridor light

That’s a gd idea… will try it on them when they call… thanks leh..! Bingo.. mbr using ICI’s mysterious, Bedrm 1: lavender mist Bedrm 2 : dainty pink TV wall: spicy salsa Remaining walls : misty, Ceiling : white ... err.. actually cant really tell difference .. except misty is abit more creamy than white..

Initially, they also told us cannot customize... fixed size de.. but luckily, i think is their boss bah happen to pass by... so, he say can do.. then he measure measure... calculate calculate.. then come to the price.. since, he very straightforward, we confirm right away. they have a way of calculating... using the grid squares as a measurement basis...funny..

Yup.. half leather, we were contemplating whether to get alex since it has 3m ready configuration.. but we are tall ppl and we nua quite alot... so for comfort reason, we opt for the high back... What color did u get? The white color alex on display there is really pretty... Haha.. dun need to feel paiseh, we also confirm on our 2nd visit.. before that, we went to IFC showrm and another showrm to compare.. in the end back to sungei kadut, as the staff service better... but shucks, they didnt give us the tray.. only give this leather kit... haha

We are quite lucky indeed...but our queue no wasn't really fantastic... but we wanted a place at jw and it's pretty limited now... plus we are both used to living here liao... so we thought "low floor better than no floor", right? So, here we are.

Yup... we were quite surprised at their efficiency too...quite worried they would delay our overall schedule.. we were quite heng, nothing major with the defects... cracks on the wall everywhere, window frame alignments off... some leaks at the toilet etc... Ours is not alex... something similar but with high-back removable cushions and the sitching also alittle diff... Not sure the model name... and we had some modifications with the size too... as we couldn't get the size we wanted with their standard configuration of the L-shape sofa... either too long or too short.... so we ask them to custom it at 3m (alex has this size..hai)... here's a sample of the display set we took at Sungei Kadut showrm...

Some pics update..... apologies for the low quality.. taken by hp... Foyer Kitchen Entrance - Some widening work to add alittle walking space when the shoe cabinet is up Our Itsy Bitsy Kitchen Fishtank area Dinning & Living room - Bomb shelter in the middle... will be a cover to hide it up..

We got our first home.. a 5-rm unit at Jurong West St 64 during the last apr bi-monthly sale. Thank god, it was our first attempt at the balloting. The agony of watching our shortlisted units selling out one after another.. day after day...worse than watching the stock market. Here's our floor plan.. Our layout is pretty challenging due to the gradient in the living/dining rm... keeping our fingers crossed. The renovations have already started in early Oct...due to exams,work etc.. we finally have time to start ur t-blog now... Here's a summary of events...
