ours is the building to the left of the pathway thingy
today marks anotha milestone in my life thus far... we went for our flat selection with HDB.. for the uninitiated, dat's the Housing Development Board for us singaporeans.. and boy, are houses here expensive or wat?! i could probly get a villa back in dubz wit e kinda money we're forkin out for our flat.. well, currently, mostly baby's forking out.. considerin i'm jobless again.. but i'd rather use e term 'in-between' jobs...let's not digress.. basically, we've paid e down-payment for the apartment so it's a do-or-die situation.. as in, no matter wat, we hafta get dat flat.. we thot we were e first ones in line, reachin there at 8.45am but we were nowhere near.. there wuz probly like 10 other numbers ahead of us.. so by the time it got to our turn n we made our choice, e unit dat we wanted wuz oredi snapped up.. more of like 'in-e-process' of being snapped up!!!! by e couple rite behind us, i tink.. those buggers!!!! damn!
so in e end, we took e 7th floor unit.. it's not too bad, (enuf of 2nd floors!) i like e idea of e balcony facing the park thingy.. of coz i wanted e unit facing the waterfront, but those were snapped up like hot potatoes..(i like potatoes) only downside is, e flats aren't built yet.. it's under e BTO (Built-to-Order) scheme n earliest completion date's gonnabe 2012.. which is a loooooooong way to go... *pfft*
we actually went to e site for the development as soon as we got selected.. so yeah, dat pretty much sums up juz how excited we both are.. =Pohyah, out of 186 units, we got queue number 160.. odds were pretty much against us gettin e prime units anyways.. but i'm not complaining.. coz it wuz our first time applying after all.. plus we did it really out of jest, like 3 days to closing for e applications.. wat's more important, is dat i'm doin dis wit the one i love.. e one i plan to share e rest of my life with.. be it in times of laughter or moments of angst... we've been thru quite a bit togetha, n we've managed to get this far unscathed.. i mean, we survived long-distance, survived our individual stubbornness, survived each annoying habits, survived those 'kidnapping' incidents', survived moments when we could simply walk out on each other.. we've survived.. n i noe the road ahead's not gonna be any easier but if being together means me being 'stupid' in the eyes of others, me giving up shopping sprees (not totally pls..), us tying the strings on our purses juz dat lil bit tighter, juz to name a few, i'm more than willing.. afterall, dat's wat u're s'posed to do when u really luv someone rite? i mean, i'm not in dis for riches or fame.. we're in dis on our own.. we're standin on our own two feet and at e end of e day, it's juz gonna be us two... evryone's got their own lives to live n own opinions to hold.. and as dey say, 'each to his own'..dun get me wrong, i'm not saying dat i should forsake evrythin or evryone else in dis pursuit of mine.. it's juz dat i tink i'm at e crossroad where my priorities are juz a lil bit different.. n i shld really get that in my head.. here's to us, baby.. may we survive evrythin else and finally get that life togetha dat we wanted.. (i.e.may we be able to walk around naked in our own home soon!! heee....) here's to e journey ahead.. insya'allah... wateva u do, hold my hands n dun let go...
can u see us waving from our apartment?? heehee....
