blackie, flat and new beginning for 2011

Oh boy, oh boy. Meng will be coming over and he is bringing Blackie. Blackie is back! Who is Blackie??? Hahaha. Blackie is Meng's old Honda CRX. Sold to his friend and his friend is selling it back to him because the fren's mom bought herself a Merc and gave him her old car. Fwah, good mom.

Okie, Blackie is beautiful but I understand Blackie is now very dirty and smelly. Told Meng to give Blackie a good bath. Meng said will give it a thorough dettol bath. Blackie the name sounds like a dog rite? Hehehe.

I just bought a resale flat. PAID A BLOODY HIGH PRICE FOR IT! What can I do? The bloody valuation is so high and nobody is selling below valuation. Located 5 mins from where I stay now. Hehehe.... I only want to stay around this region coz it is convenient for me and Ben.

Flat was renovated 12 years ago. But the inside looks quite obiang. So many colours... let's see, got purple wardrobes, glossy deep blue kitchen cabinets, complicated cornices, black colour opaque windows, sky blue ceilings and more. For me, it is very simple: I just want neutral colours e.g. lily white, cream, beige, white and some blacks. I will be spending some money to salvage "the look" and make it more personal and to invoke a cosy feeling.

There is a huge open air carpark behind this block, therefore the view from the kitchen are all trees and a carpark, no blocking by anything. Wheeee, I can walk naked in my bedroom, e.g. come out naked from the bathroom if I forget my bath towel. From the front door, it is the road (not a major road) so again it is not blocked. On the whole, I think this block and this unit is not bad. Actually, I have always liked this block. The best thing is that, it is 2 blocks away from the old flat I used to rent (from the Malay guy). Therefore, I am very very familiar with this location and I feel very at home. I only hope Ben will grow to like it. I also hope this flat will bring me lots of deals and $$$$. The Malay guy's flat was very good. I closed many deals when I was staying there. It was only a year ago that I moved out from it after staying there for 3 years. Coffee shop and Shop n Save are just one block away. We can dine at Sunset Way more often (we haven't been to Sunset Way since moving to King Albert Park, coz we now go to Upper Bukit Timah eateries near Courts all the time). Now Ben walks to and eats at Mac and Bukit Timah market most of the time.

Okie... that's all for today. I kena one traffic offence which I also dunno how come I can get it. Sian jit puah liao.
