hi diva79... oklah 112 nt so small mah. the bigger, the more need to spend for reno eh.. hehe !

the service balcony to me is ok only lah, just a partition for me to seperate the washing area and the kitchen area. i would also love to have ceiling to floor windows !

Hihi,

dropping by your blog.

nice view from 24th floor :bangwall:

Me destined to live at 3rd floor, current house & new house also level 3 haha :P

  • Author

Hi Pink_Piglet, thanks for stopping by. this is the highest floor i've ever lived in. when i lived with my parents, first is 2nd storey and current is 8th. then we moved high high high up. hehe ! actually my dad scared of heights so I dun tink he'll be looking out the windows that often. lucky they are not staying with me or my dad will not be near the windows everytime.

I went down yesterday and was so **** frustrated :curse::wub: . nothing done at all again lor. not a single tile was there. i was pissed off already. at least we managed to settle the measurement for the wardrobe from ClosetDesigns. Michael also talked to us about Kronotex and recommended PowerDekor instead. He did mention to us some stuff about both but I tink better nt write here. if u wan to know, PM me.. hehe ! :deal:

FH is actually quite skeptical about PowerDekor cos it's not really that famous lor. One of our friends use Kronotex with no issues but it was like 3 years ago. Wat if the quality deteriorates already.. then how ? So since we have not chosen the laminates, we will think about it further. ;)

And does anyone know if got diffence between Asia Dekor and Power Dekor ? ;)

Anyway, FH keep telling me to be patient but it has already been delayed SEVEN days u know.. And FH so patient and nice guy.. I scared later my ID step over his head ah.. 8|

No pics people sorry about that. I'm just as frustrated as u are about the lack of pics.. sigh... :(

Now, me just looking forward to buying the hob, hood and kitchen sink this weekend.
