1st opening of our new house!

Finally made our 1st official opening of our new flat last Sat. Woke up at 6am and had to rush out by 6.45am, then took bus no. 231 to change to bus no. 159 and met Web near his home as he boarded the bus. Was feeling quite hungry so we bought something to eat b4 heading to our flat to prepare for the opening at 8am.

Started off to open all the windows and balconies doors to allow fresh air to seap in 1st then proceeded to place our offering of fruits in the middle of the living room b4 checking out the whole unit.

It was then checking for defects for the whole unit. We need to report all defects within 7 days from collection of keys so cun wait till next week, when we had intended to invite a monk to bless the flat. Lucky thing for 1st opening, we need only follow a general auspicious date and time.

After about 4 hrs of checking all items (including keys) and taking down notes, we finally left and lastly opened our letterbox and shocked to find that its damn packed with letters. brochures, magazines and even SCV cables inside. Put them all in the bag to check later. We then proceeded for lunch ard 12 noon at the nearby coffeeshop and took a bus back to Web's house to cool down and who knows, his parents wanted to go take a look so we set off again...

After about 1 hr inside the house, doing some last minute checking, we left as it started to rain heavily. Took a break downstairs b4 leaving to take bus (us to nearby Compass Point and his parents home) as the path out was more or less sheltered.

We then had some drinks at Compass Point, shopped ard and wanted to take dinner but the food court was damn crowded. We thus continued shopping ard and check out shops like Seahorse (mattresses), Courts (furnitures) and Gain City (aircons). Headed back to the food court again, still as crowded but managed to get a table after making a few rounds.
