relax relax, last time when i'm a kid, i also did very badly at my PSLE or impt prelims too. my mum whacked me with her cane also no use. the keyword here is Patience, Love and care

EOS 450, me too. kena before this kinda thing. last time even worse, stayed at my MIL house when our house were under renovation, were having some problems and etc etc. so i'm basically under the mercy of my MIL. she nags when i get home late, she nags at my clothes, my too many pairs of shoes, nag at my dog being naughty etc etc etc. basically when i'm almost going to explore, i would call HER SON, who's my husband to nag back the same thing at him! When my hubby buay tahan, he would talk to his mum. after a while, it will be okay. but then after sometime it starts again and again. sigh, what to do, just have to tolerate her lor. i would be angry, but wouldn't confront her, so everytime she nags, i would REN (tolerate) quietly, and complain to my hubby

Hi Sabrinath, so sorry, my ID is now converting to being a full time student, so u may want to consider others.......... thanks for showing interest in my blog!

but my mum told me that lizards is good for the house, because they will trap and eat mosquitoes. dunno how true is that

Hi, welcome fellow AMKian. your place looks so nice! I guessed its at blk 600xxx something rite?

Don't worry leh, ngunadi, i used to order a few items from them too. solid furniture at solid prices, and you can even custom make or order 'designer' look alike pcs at great prices......so i trust them lor

haneymum, your reno is really very nice! how much u spent on it? a lot of dark wood elements in that too. did you decide on this concept, or your ID?

boringgal, if your flat is more than 25 yrs & above, i really think you SHOULD not overlay your tiles. becos my flat is also in a original condition more than 32 yrs. and although heart pain i did up the new tiles and new waterproofing & all the works again. including new wiring......heartpain also no choice. gotta do it. u dun want ur newly renovated flat to get short circuit right? Oh & btw, i got a good electrician contact. but i have to dig. u want? btw, do rem to buy fire insurance (the upgraded version) also!

wah your flat at TPY is sure ex leh. at only 2nd floor, the Purchase price is $408,000.00. then what happens if u opt to buy a high floor located at 25th floor? but location wise, its very good. yeah, how come there's 45k grant?

Simon, your boy is sure cute leh! i myself MIAed for so long in RT, now come bk to bring gd news. i am expecting........but realized all these bb stuff costs a bomb! so shocking.........have oredi run to msia to stock up on baby wipes, clothes and bb bottles (avent) bought from bb fair. i tink that i am fainting from all these kinda spending! Do you have any gd lobang for 2nd hand bb cot?

I have gone to baby kingdom and baby hyperstore which has many stuff for sales. otherwise, look out for Taka BB Fair, or the upcoming Baby Expo fair!

hey hey i went to a local neighbourhood shop located in AMK, directly opposite the dog run at Bishan Park. quality is not bad, and pricing is quite reasonable too. the shop name is called S&C. i have bought my wardrobe with them and tv console. lastly i even managed to save about $500 on my wardrobe, which is exactly the same thing i saw in other bigger shops.

your hse condition and flooring is really good! what a steal. started to look for contactors?

washing machine base cfm have to be more than ur machine meh. somemore normally they will ask what type of machine u buy, and to tell them the measurements. so now she got get her workers to come and do liao? Oh my, rgd the solid top, any explanations from ur ID? so u have moved into ur new hse liao huh? congrats hor No pics?

wah Char, i only 'gone' for 1 to 2 weeks never come into RT and i got a shock. ur blog now jump to 16 pages liao! btw, ur ah neh worker good quality work huh. the tiles so neat and nice leh, u gtg treat them to kopi and food huh. how much ur tiles btw?

By the way, Doremon 'long time no see' i thou your reno have started oredi! Now then get quotes huh, when u expected to start your reno and then ur completed timing to contractor is how long? normally u need to give them some allowance for defects too. By the way, your quote is not clear, ask ur contractor to give an itemised breakdown for EvErY item... I have doubts on the below too. What brand u r being quoted? as far as i rem, last time i went to get Voringer quote directly from the supplier, they quoted me super ex. becos it really is the highest quality as far as i know comparing to e other brands. lastly i used Pergo family range, lowest range, but made in msian. so far so good. "German Technology" heavy duty laminate flooring (To specify)? then how long warranty? made in where? Acid Cleaning/Chemical washing = can ask for Foc Danto Japanese mosaic (What's that)? how it look like, made where? ""Anti Stain"" super polished homogeneous tiles, really Anti-stain? sure or not? then super polished, will it be slippery when there's water spillage? ask ur contractor abt it. As for Painting, how many rooms included, ceiling included? the base coat how many? coatings of paint, they paint how many times? how many type of colours can be choosen? Relocate gas pipe, NOT possible to be foc. you will have to call and arrange yourself. for switching off and turning on, Live Gas. becos its quite dangerous to have LIVe gas on, when they reno. No electricity works? no cable points no nothing? I've also noticed a lot of carpentry works ongoing, that's why the quote is much more higher. if u wana save costs, get a separate quote from trusted carpenters, then u can save more on this.

If u really can close 1 eye, and open 1 eye, sometimes if the ID cannot finish the faults in time, then u have to move in first lor, then bug them everyday to come and do it..........zzz

Then u must bug your ID to recify all these faults ASAP, since u r in a hurry to move hse......

wow, then what did your ID tell u? they got tell the factory to speed up the work? after installation, also need to let the cupboard 'rest' for 1 day. the smell of glue is super strong

so MM, then how? HO quite fast leh, dun worry, normally in the end everything will be swee swee, and when u look back, you want wan to go thru e reno once again!

wow then your side v near my house leh. my also v near to mayflower sec

aiyo your poor baby doggie. how is he now? btw, i also brought my dog for grooming last Sat. he was so blur when he came back. like in a daze like that

wow Takomi, your house looked ready to HO anytime liao. when scheduled to moving in?

My is at ave 3, but the wrong side of ave 3. actually hor my side is nearer to your side. the ave 4 is the one at Mayflower Ave right? there's a Mcdonald and a Prima Deli
