the day we are officially broke but an asset rich! > 12:09 AM.
We went to HDB on 8 February 2012 at 910am for our 2nd appointment.
The whole process lasted only 45mins and we came out $30k poorer ): However, we officially own our 1st flat together at Tiong Bahru View! (:
Dars was saying HDB should give us a small gift for contributing such a big sum of money to them!
Dars writing a cheque payable to HDB after we met the officer. He's trying to perfect his cheque writing skill but no worries, more cheques to issue when we start renovating (:
Oh here's an evidence that I was present at the 2nd appointment too! Start earning back the money and counting down to Q4 2014 (:
Though much poorer now, I am glad we were lucky to choose Tiong Bahruy View as our love nest (: Another 2.5 years more to go before we can officially start planning for our house and shift in together!
I think the most memorable event of 2011 will be, none other than our flat selection!
We chose our future home on 9th December 2011 at 315pm and it will be at Tiong Bahru View (:
Our house hunting has been quite a smooth sailing one I believe. We got 1000+ for the Tampines BTO in May 2011 and thus unable to choose any unit in the east. Next, we dropped our ballot for SOBF in September 2011 and while waiting for our ballot result, we decided to give the Bedok Reservoir DBSS, Belvia, a shot at the last few minutes before the application closed. Lucky us managed to get no.148 for SOBF and the headache came when we got no.10 for Belvia!
It was quite a tough choice initially but after we saw Belvia's price list and sat down for an emergency meeting with our families, we decided to go for SOBF at Bukit Merah!
After consulting MT for fengshui advices on a good unit for both of us, I am glad that we got the ideal unit though Dars feel it's rather low comparing to the overall block. Hope our house can bring good luck to us! (:
I am looking forward to the day when we design our own house, shop for furnitures and most of all, living together with you! (:
it's to and back from Taiwan for about 2weeks. fully sponsored trip is shiokk as you just need to worry about your shopping expenses and nothing else! (: A great trip with the peeps i must say!
however, my mood has not really set back to work mode. i need to start working my ass off to accumulate my travelling fund fast for the next better destination!
back to paperwork and quotation preparation for my clients ):
I was the least prepared for V day this year as I was away in Taiwan earlier, I absolutely have no time to do any art work or buy present till the 13th.
Nevertheless I still managed to get the presents ready and up to standard (:
As i have work on the 14th, we met up for movie and dinner in Tonikichi at Orchard Central. The whole Orchard was packed with lovely couples!
My Pedro package for HIM
It's a work bag and a brown belt to add to his collection for mix and match of attire (:
Much rave for polaroid and it's HELLO KITTY's for ME!
WOOHOO it's time to build up our polaroid shots album (:
As we get together longer, we seem to just adore simple affair during such celebrations. Special quote from my beloved twin, V day are for silly young people HAHA oops!
14022011 marks the beginning of our 5th year! (: this year ahead will be filled with changes as Dars is starting out on his job and things will not be the same as before. let's hope for a smooth sailing rabbit year (:
My 1st trip of the year is to Harris Batam! (: 1st time out with my best friend, Shanz!
It's a 2D1N package that covers 3hrs spa session and it's shiok-ness to the max! (: the resort is clean and the workers are very friendly. Definitely worth the cent!
We head out to Nagoya Hill for A&W cravings, J&co donuts and cheap grocery shopping.
Sun bathing by the poolside with cool breeze blowing is indeed very relaxing (: the great company also adds some good factor to it too! (:
Next trip coming up will be DK Taiwan Trip from 8th Feb - 11th Feb 2011 woohoo! (: counting down to the street food and chilling weather!
