jeraldin>> actually if u call the ads directly, most sellers also go thru agents.

and the ads are also placed by agents...so in a way, you r dealing with the agent also.

if you want, i can introduce my agent to you..he's a friend of mine also.

 

[krystal80]

junie ah, BTO must be first-time home buyers right? Or no? Coz my present place is bought in my name with my mom.

 

[skinnybeany]

got 2 furama?

the one opp chinatown pt is which one?

 

[nic1975]

whats yr budget?
it depends what u want on the design...

 

[skinnybeany]

drea>> u mean u r the co-applicant? but u r not paying for the flat right? maybe cannot liao leh. i'm not too sure.

 

[jeraldin]

Junie> Thanks alot.. but i think i might be calling up my mom's friend's son who is a housing agent.. just wanting to try out luck by using the classified first... will call him up soon.. i'm getting worried..
BTW.. the furama opp chinatown pt is furama city centre.. tat's the one i am going to... =)

nic> My FH is setting aside about 2.5k on the WB... will that be good enough a budget to do at fairy's inc? if not think i will just go for Soo Kee leh...

 

[krystal80]

jeraldin, the rings got to see the design n what gold you wanna use and stuff....

 

[nic1975]

wow...tats good enuff jeraldin..

u can always book an appointment with fairys and tell them yr budget so they will work within yr budget and u will get a design that u like.

 

[skinnybeany]

jeraldin>> I see, no prob.

$2.5K is quite high a budget oredi.

 

[yuki31]

piglet, thanks

yap now back at work n there are piles of work to clear ...so sian ...n my boss say she resigned n last day is end of the month then i got to cover ....haiz

i dunno if tell mil will she be unhappy ...or shld i juz let her iron? haha

 

[meie]

yuki.. I guess your MIL is very 'sticky' with you & your hubby? Probably you need to get your hubby to talk to her so she can give you both some personal space.

 

[meie]

yuki, if I were you.. I let her iron.. coz I hate ironing.. wahahah. Then maybe you help out with other chores like washing dishes or something.

 

[krystal80]

the one opp. chinatown is called furama city centre..that's the "original" one. The 2nd one is Furama Riverfront which used to be the old Novotel Apollo Hotel (next to Copthorne Kings) =)

no worries junie, when we going to buy, i go n find out =) Who knows? we might just take over the present flat from his dad *shrugs*

Jeraldin, u want wat kinda design? I just went to GH and saw some new ones I didn't see the last time I was there so maybe can share with us then we see if we know where got?

 

[jeraldin]

Junie> we are setting a higher budget for our WB coz we cut cost on my engagement ring .. coz WB is for both of us mah somemore it is more symbolic than my engagement ring so set a higher budget... okok...

nic> can we walk in? or is it a must to book appointment with them???

 

[jeraldin]

drea> actually i oso dun noe wat i wan.. haha but was more incline to those shining surface with small bling bling embedded on the surface of the ring.. think my description cannot make it hahha... everywhere oso have this kind of design but just that i haven't seen one that give me that "I simply love this one" feel yet.. hiaz...think i am very mafan hahaha...

 

[krystal80]

hahaha i totally understand. Mark and I wanted a ring with wavy design, no need diamond or anything. Sounds simple right? We, like u, search and search, cannot find. No "THIS IS THE ONE!!" kinda feeling =P Went to Fairys Inc and I saw one that they did tt followed the theme of "branches and vines" from the Bible and I thought that would be nice. Mark ended up doing some sketches and while thinking about it (coz what Fairys quoted us was out of budget), we saw something similiar at GH tt was within budget so we went for it =P

Must make appt coz they are very very packed lately coz they will be closed for CNY for quite a while...

 

[anqi]

i think i will send for printing in mid or late March.
just managed to confirm that the inlets and ribbons are given to us as well.

 

[yuki31]

Mei, ya lor ....my hubby dun seem to feel tat ..haiz ...i alway tell him tat we dun even have our own space ..haiz ...

haha ya i do the dishes ...but normally only for mine n hubby and the rest she will do ... washing clothes she alway use the washing machine so i din really touch ..haha

btw i still need to get a tv for my room ...tot of getting samsung lcd tv ...any good lobang?

 

[corsage]

hi everyone just now someone asked when's my wedding, and I thought a while and said NEXT MONTH! Then it really dawned on me that there's so little time left! =p

 

[tulips02]

Ya fairy inc need to make appt better. That time i just walked in, they were so busy.

 

[fudgecake]

hihi all....

just back from overseas trip. great to hear that the all gals gathering went well. hope to join u gals the next time round.

maochong : great to hear that you enjoyed your PS. think I will be traumatised for mins as me and hubby not the posey type... sigh... hope my fotos will not be too awkward. I am only doing my PS in mid March due to my hubby's and my traveeling schedule. We were thinking of either Botanic gardens or Sentosa.

Just called up my shifu and he just confirmed that my auspicious hours to leave the house is between 5am to 7am.... so early..... think i be hit by all the surcharges for MUA, PG and VG..... haiz.....

 

[meie]

yuki.. I have the Samsung lcd tv in my room... it's quite good. you can check out those HDB electrical shops.. they sell much cheaper.

 

[jeraldin]

oh okok ... thanks alot babe.. =)
you gals really helped answer alot of my queries.. =) hahaha

 

[krystal80]

heh heh no worries...
we all help each other mah =)

 

[jo23]

jonic: ok!

i got no JP, my rom was at the registry.

 

[nic1975]

are we at the topic of rings still?

 

[krystal80]

hee hee....that's actually a very good qn =P

 

[ivied]

Yuki, I think its best to take some initiative to help her out on the ironing and washing. Perhaps can just pop up the ques, but if she said no need, then you can just rest.

Elderly have the mentality that we youngsters should be 'automatic', and not wait to be told.

Mei, so good, you can cook for your hubby. I have not stepped into the kitchen yet.

I hate ironing too, but no choice leh. Now I have to go source for part time helpers.

 

[nic1975]
