The Move-In

*slurps*

Celebrated our official move in with a feast yesterday. Moving is so exhausting... but it's so wonderful to have a place to call our own! ^^

Our place is littered with dust even after repeated cleaning. I've asked around and everyone gave me the knowing nod and told me that this "dust from goodness knows where" will continue for a month. Argh. Looks like my Novita will be put to very good use, especially since we are on a high floor and will be subjected to air pollution from our considerate neighbours. It was disturbing to see a good part of Punggol covered in a shroud of smoke. PSI was 90 last night and I could smell it in my brand new house.

Very.Unhappy

Will be updating better pictures as soon as we get the house better organized. It's now a warzone, a very dusty warzone.

Lots of firsts for us yesterday! Our first meal, our first attempt with the microwave, the washing machine and the shower. We are soooo in love with our Hansgrohe shower head! Every shower is pure bliss so it was definitely money well spent.

Looking around our new home, it amazes me how everything eventually came together. It feels so personalized because we painstakingly chose most of the elements in the house, less a few HDB provided ones. You know where you got them, how long it took for you to source them, the whole decision making process, the colour coordination, the different specifications and the price of everything in the house. My dad is right, because it's your house, you start treasuring every switch you touch and every tile you step on because it's your sweat and blood.

Home Sweet Home for now! :) Yay!
