hi nemo,
how come you never try to take leave before your AD? your company does not allow? try to get more rest whenever you can.. remember that you must look radiant on your big day!

Hi girls,
I'm back! I was having high fever 1 week before AD. Admitted to NUH (but wait in vain - nothing done so went home) 1 day before AD.
On AD, after wedding & simple tea ceremony (with jean & t-shirt on) admitted to Raffles hospital and was diagnosed with "Dengue fever" and stayed for 4 days.
I went back to work on Monday but feet swelling & tired so went back to see doctor yesterday. And was given another 1 week post hospitalisation leave. My Honeymoon also postponed and worse still, we didn't buy travel insurance and so after appeal, we will be less $1k (total) instead of 75%. Thank God.
So, how's house hunting? Me still looking on my own. Now staying with ILs.

Hi Nemo,
Yea I was down too. But didn't need hospitalization cos my platelet count did not drop to too low a level. So I could rest at home. My hands and feet turned very red and itchy, to a point where I thought my hands were swollen.
I'm almost completely recovered already, supposed to be still on MC actually but I returned to work cos I couldn't afford to take such a long MC leave from work.
I stopped my house hunting for a while, waiting for my FH to settle into his new job. Prob continue end of this month or next month. How's your search Nemo?

I heard if bitten again, will be even more worse & serious case.
House hunting?? still looking loh but slow.

Hi Nemo
Wow thats really low! Oh dear. It must have been a very trying experience for you! I still feel tired easily, but I hear that's normal. It'll take another 2 to 3 weeks before you regain full strength. So don't tire yourself out when you return to work!
Yea I heard bt it too from my doc. Scared.

Hi Nemo,
I am still looking for a flat. Actually my FH and I stopped for a while. Now resuming. We're still hoping to get a unit in Bishan, but if we can't find one which we can afford, we may look at Sembawang. Going to view flats this Saturday!
Hi Serene, I hear in the earlier thread you live around 270-271? How do you find the distance from the MRT? My FH and I are gg to view a unit ard the area but my FH find that its very far from the MRT. but I love the quietness of the place.

Hi Hui,
ya I am living ard the few blocks u mentioned. to be precise, it's only two bus stop away. I do walk home from bishan mrt after work sometimes. max 10 min walk. not that tedious cos i cut through the estate. besides the new circle way line is up also at marymount rd and shunfu. so I think in future the mrt is also near loh, just need to walk a bit. exercise a bit is good la.
yes, it's more quiet actually. other than some noise along the roads sometimes from the speeding of cars, i think generally it's ok. and it's near the bus stop along marymount road. 5 min walk to the bus stop and buses there bring u to bukit batok, chinatown area, novena area or even orchard area where mrt stations are easily accessible.
perhaps let me know the outcome of the viewing on sat. take care

Hi Serene,
Thank you for your feedback.
I really like that area, but don't know how to walk from MRT! 
U mean you cut thru the private estate?
Hi Kessymeow,
a 4 room flat can range from $260k to $320k depending on level and location. A 5 room can range from $350k to above $400k. Its quite ex in my opinion.
But praying for the best in my house search. If not I'll find a unit in Sembawang. Cheaper. Do you have an agent to help you in your house search? If you don't I can recommend you mine. She is very nice. Don't pressure me to make my purchase.
Thank you for your feedback.

Hi Hui,
I will say cut through the HDB estate and not the private one. I think that this side less noisy la. other than one school here. but it's not gonna affect us much cos we will be out working and be back by then... so it's not too bad.
well if u really managed to get a unit here, I show u the way to walk loh. it's not difficult la.

Hi Serene,
Thanks for your offer!
You and tunagirl are such nice people. Will let you know if we settle for that flat. But here's thanks to u in advance if it happens!
Hi Kessymeow,
Depends on whether its a 4A or a 4I, 4A is 105sqm and a 4I is 84sqm. I also think I cannot afford a 5 room, but 4 room flats in Bishan tend to ask for a lot of cash on top of the valuation price. I also don't know how.
It'll be easier if you have an agent to help you out.
So if you need my agent's contact just let me know!

hi Nemo & Hui!
Hope to hear news tt u gers wld find ur flats in Bishan
heheh
There's a 4A unit in 144, which i think can check out. It's a next to corner unit & the unit is raise about 2-3 steps above the corridor, so there's still quite abit of privacy..

hi Hui,
I think so.. Unless u specify tt u want to do the paper work urself. Otherwise, u can also try to bargain on the commission. Some co. are GST registred, so it's 1% + 5% of the commission. U can settle for a round number & ask the agent to absorb the GST
