On your mark

Greetings!
Welcome to this blog. I was researching on home design and when I googled, I was grateful that some of the bloggers posted pictures of their before, during and after process of renovations. That gave me ideas on how I want to do up my upcoming HDB flat. InsyaAllah.

Apart from that I will also be sharing my journey on the preparation of my upcoming wedding in March. Again good source of ideas, suggestions and resources I found of other people's blog.
And of course everything else that comes in between leading up to the day I move in to my new flat. Honestly, I am not expecting anyone to read and comment. But if it helps anyone out there who is searching and going through the same journey, why not. This is my give back. To start this blog and post my journey until then.

Background
I am 35years young woman living in Singapore. Single for now, Malay-Muslim. My work profession is in Events Management company. Although I major in Information Technology in University. Living with my family, Father, Mother and 2 other Sisters in the East area of Singapore.

I recently got engaged to a wonderful, jovial guy, two years older who sees everything as a new experience. AM's attitude infected me. And now I see every experience as New! even the old ones!





Tomorrow, 10 August 2012 at 10.30am is our appointment with HDB for flat selection. Yay! Finally the day has come. We are applying for 4Room flat at Punggol Waterway Sundew. This is our first try under the Fiance Scheme. We were really kiasu that we must be the first 200 applicants to submit our application to apply when the Mar12 BTO opened. We were even more excited when we received the note that our queue is 384, knowing that there are only 800+ units for 4R.

I was planning on the best unit to choose, the floor level, ease of access from the Site Plan on HDB website.
Of course, the excitement gradually loses its steam as day after day, we saw our dream units were snapped up by those in front of us. Units in front of the waterway Gone! Units not directly facing the waterway but still can see Gone! Units near to the shops Gone! Our next option are units that are not facing the expressway and the service yard is not along the walking corridor.

 #10-654 ideally.

Mission for tomorrow morning. Look out for the units that are high, service yard window not facing the corridor walkway and most importantly, the price not over $320k.

All the best to us tomorrow!
