    Hi all,

    I read your comments and reflected on my behaviour so far.

    What you guys say is true. I am ashamed to say that indeed, I have started out with an agenda. I should not have done that.

    I should not be using my T-blog to try to pitch the idea. My intentions when I started this T blog isn't pure, now that I think about it.

    I think that it is because I was too engrossed into the $ part that I lost myself. I really thought that this idea would work and people would sign up. Believe it or not, I am not an evil man, simply an imperfect person, blinded by greed

    I truly wanted to improve the reno industry. I truly wanted to share ideas. That haven't changed, even now. To say that I was trying to get my post counts up is really sad.

    knownothing, I have checked out some of your posts too and I could also say that you are trying to get your post counts up. Not all of your posts are golden, you know? Same for anyone out there I guess. I mean no offense.

    Oh hi! I graduated in the early 90s! My sis graduated in the 80s though.

    "Boon Lay Garden Pri School...

    Our very own knowledge pool

    We dive in, young and playful

    and swim out mature and faithful..."

    Haha. Nostalgic! They changed the song when I was in Pri 6.

    Oops sorry, gone off topic. This should be a reno blog! Paiseh!

    friends78, I asked for contacts because I wanted to check prices, to see if I got chopped. Buyer's remorse. That time, I haven't finish my reno yet.

    My mistake is that I used the word "business model", which leads to people thinking that I was trying to make money off people's renovations. To this day, I have not made a single cent off the idea. I really didn't expect such a negative response.

    I guess it is because the people here are just too close minded. I am also a member at The Warrior Forums, and you can share any radical ideas there without such negativity. No offense meant, just my own feelings about Renotalk.

    I wanted to share my idea, but instead lead to people to think that I am dishonest and self promoting. To be honest, I have no idea how to share my ideas without sounding self promoting. I really, really just wanted to share my idea. I think I went along the wrong way to do it, which leads to people thinking that I am a fiend.

    I have learned my lesson. I guess I still have a lot to learn as a person. I want to thank adidaem, knownothing and friends78 to show me how flawed and how greedy I am. I have lost myself...and humiliated myself. Thanks for the "hit in the head" good.gif

    I promise that I will continue to improve as a human being. Luckily, I am still young. biggrin.gif

    I would need to reflect on my behavior. But I am still determined to make the renovation industry a little bit better for everyone. Because once a problem gets to me, I cannot get it out until I solve it. Yet another of my personality flaw.

    This is the last time I would share my ideas here. I would also stop using this account. Please try to forgive me, guys. I truly meant no harm. I would remove all posts I made.

    Have a nice saturday, everyone. yamseng.gif

    for merely playing games, i suggest S2 cos u can charge another spare battery n interchange ur current battery while playing games can actually drain ur battery very fast in such u are in totally engross with ur games with e sudden low batt, u will be feel oh jialat.. low batt in e exciting stages of ur games.. cos im for myself i standby another spare batt for my S2...just my 2 cents..

    Actually, I heard from my friend that there are two version of Android. The "games" version and the "social" version. The "games" version would have better battery life towards playing games and the "social" version would be more geared towards social media.

    I am not sure if this is true or he is just crapping. If true, then S2 has which version?

    HI,

    I think it all boils down to whether are you renovating your kitchen / whole house or not. Me too, just bought a flat. At first thought of keeping the floor tiles as owner did reno 9 yrs back. But we eventually hack & change all the tiles 'cos the floor tiles doesn't match the kitchen concept. I am a perfectionist.

    So I wouldn't want to have a new designed kitchen with an old design living & rooms' tiles. So end up, we change it to suit the concept. We did our homework & ended up spending less as compared to rumours about how expensive renovation of whole house can be.

    9 years back...Is that consider long or short?

    How many years are the "normal" reno gaps?

    Just got confirmation from my ID.

    The hot water pipe cannot be run through the room due to the size of the water hole.

    No choice, I need to lay another power point to the MBR for the heater.

    Now I am considering whether to go Instant or Storage for both toilets.

    What's the difference between instant and storage?
