Moved IN Finally

Preface...

The excitement and joy of moving into our very own place didn't come instantly... it only instill to us every night when we crawled onto your $2K+ cosy Sealy bed, watching the programmes from the Samsung LED TV which hung on the beautifully done feature wall in our new Master Bedroom!


Acknowledgments

Special Thanks to Hubby for covering almost 80% of the move... Thanks to myself for coordinating the moving of bed (and of course my MIL and my parents for supervising the delivery and receiving of it). Not to forget my FIL for ferrying the bulky items!


Sat, 1st Oct


Chapter 1 - Morning, Breakfast

Of course we had to fill ourselves and gather more energy before the long-awaited move... Another good reason to take our own sweet time with a decent breakfast was the heavy downpour which started after we loaded the barang-bararng and ended right before we were done with our breakfast! (What a GREAT timing!)


Chapter 2 - Land Transfer

We ferried our barang-barang twice (to and fro) Seng Kang E and Seng Kang W... MIL took care of lift transfer and door access... FIL and Hubby took care of the barang-barang tansfer... Me? What else can a fat lady do besides staying with our vehicles to ensure we didn't receive tickets from summon-auntie/uncle...


Chapter 3 - Unpacking

We always thought there's nothing much we had to move to our new place... only if revised our primary school Mathematics... everything added up and Walah! We ended up with 4-5 boxes of items, 1 bag of stuff toys... 2 huge luggage of apparel... a big bag of medicines... and many more... "Now, where should we begin?" Hubby questioned... We agreed that we had to strategize our unpacking approach so that we could complete everything and head for a good dinner together! Of course, all the odd-tasks had to be covered by Hubby (just what else can a fat lady do!? hee...) I took care of the wardrobe and kitchen... while Hubby settled everything else!


Chapter 4 - Our Victory Dinner

We completed the work items with slight delay and headed out to T1 for Saboten, followed by some "marketing" at T3 basement... Visiting Changi Airport on a weekend is like going to any shopping mall! The crowd was... incredible! (The reason why we chose Saboten @T1 was to use its 20% off voucher which expires this month... yet, we stuffed ourselves to the max and received just another 20% off voucher!) O_O


Chapter 5 - Home Sweet Home

Returned to our nest from the airport with some basic grocery from T3's FP... it was an awful (yes, that's right, super awful) experience to be welcomed by a huge cockroach! Yucks! How did it come to the 25th floor? Took lift? err... Considering that we just moved in, we didn't prepare insecticide. So we had to rely on the most traditional way... What to do? Hubby rolled up some pieces of old newspaper to form a sturdy stick, while I grabbed onto a mop and a hanger to chase the cockroach out from behind the washing machine... 2, or rather, 3 of us 'danced cha-cha' at our service yard at 10pm until the episode ended when the you-know-what got slapped by the newspaper rod and flushed down the toilet bowl...
