Got our keys!!


Finally got our keys today... a total of 27 keys (3 for each door/ lock)!!

Met Web at ard 10.30am even though our appointment at HDB is 1.10pm. We went to the OCBC bank 1st to open a joint account then proceeded for brunch at Koufu. We then went to HDB to buy fire insurance 1st b4 going to take a queue no. for our appointment. We were already waiting there at 12.10pm, almost one hr early. Good thing we din have to wait that long coz we were called in ard 1pm and after all the procedures and signing of the flat documents (alot alot of pages, we were almost like idols giving out autographs!), we left abt 40 mins later and proceeded to the Singapore Power counter to sign up for the water and electricity (plus sewage, refuse etc) services.

We then went to the 3rd storey showroom for different categories of flats (2, 3, 4 and 5-rooms) and left for the nearby furniture showroom at Lor 5. Got sis to check the address and location for me as I forgot to bring it out. Disappointed that the furnitures there were not cheap at all, and the worksmanship seemed not too good too. We then left and walked to the library to take a break as we were both tired and felt quite warm under the hot sun.

Had snacks at KFC b4 going to Courts to check out their furnitures on offer. The sofa we were looking at went from $1400+ to now sales at $833!! We were still hesitating coz not sure of our house design yet (if colour can match) thus will probably make up our minds by end of the month as the promo is till 10 May 07.

We had initially checked that we could only open the doors to our new flat on 24 Apr 07 but we need to check for any defects within 7 days from today thus cannot wait till then. Luckily after checking, realised that we can actually go in anytime (just find a general auspicious date) and will get a shifu (temple monk) to perform opening ceremony rituals on 24 Apr 07. We are trying to see if this weekend works else will need to take leave again tomorrow (coz its a good date) again.
