Shifting House

Renovations to Darling's new house were finally completed and they started shifting in for the past 2 weeks. The reno were q a headache coz the contractor cannot listen to instructions properly AND the workmanship wasn't that good; dar had to like ask the guy to change the floor tiles 3 times and countless other stuff that were ignored. It was real frustrating as there are 2 chinese 7th month this year and they wanted to shift in before that. Finally the house was ready!! :))

Good thing that they are only shifting across the road, so they can kinda take their time to shift their stuff over slowly... which is what Dar has been doing. The past 2 weeks have been spent goin to IKEA with him to get his stuff and to shift his stuff fr his old place to the new place. GOSH he has so MAAAANNNYYYYY stuff I was amazed!!!!! I helped him to carry the stuff over and boy were the boxes heavy!!! thnk all the durians and ice cream I have been working were worked off heh! Kept nagging him to throw away what ever that is not needed, as I told him, if he hasnt used them in the past 10 years, he is unlikely to use them in the next 10 years rite??? But he is e sort that likes to keep stuff and so, much to my disappointment, not much stuff was thrown away :( His new room is kinda cramped rite now with all his possessions collected over the years which I don't really like. Of course he claims that he juz wana shift everything over then slowly pack and throw stuff but somehow I don't see that happening hee hee!! Best thing I like about his rm is the super comfy sofa bed he bought; it opens up to a slightly smaller than Queen sized bed. I almost always promptly fall asleep on it when I am @ his place which is why he is q pissed coz I always say I wana help but end up sleeping instead *grinz*
The other thing I like about the house is that it has a TERRIFIC view!! It's like we can even see the audience at National Stadium, although they lk like ants lah! :PPP Hopefully they dun tear dwn the old bus interchange and build high rise buildings in it's place. Me can't wait to catch the NDP fireworks @ his place this year!!
