1st home outside Sheares, Ghim Moh (Posted Thursday, 08 July 2004)

moved into my new place last saturday. this flat is absolutely perfect for me living room is living room, bedroom is bedroom, kitchen is kitchen etc. i mean there is no a single unwanted stuff being put at unsuitable or unsightly spot. neat and tidy, with necessary appliances. to me, c'est parfait


i packed all my belongings into boxes after i woke up.. moved them to ghim moh and unpacked everything before i slept. the whole process took place within 1 day this is amazing. my record in sheares hall is always -> a few days to pack - a few hours to move - a few days to unpack. wah!! break record liao

But all this is impossible without all my fellow friends. they are professional movers!! move into and out from hall dunno how many times already after dinner, pastor SF drove us to hall in a pick-up. 5 kids sitting behind like "bangla", on the way to hall we saw a few companies in a lorry next to ours . once we arrived at hall ard 8pm, the professional movers quickly rush to my room, pull cum push all my boxes out from the room and put the heavy ones onto trolley. they are strong and fast but the only problem is that they are not familiar with the structure of blk b. they almost lost their way in this "maze". first of all, u gotta go all the way to the junction turn right and take the lift down to 4th floor. turn right twice and move to the next lift. take to 1st level and open the gate. who would remember so many turnings huh?? ok finally we loaded the little pick-up with my 4-year assets. well then we set out to ghim moh. this time round, i was the only one being the "bangla" and the rest upgrade liao, taking cab.

another 3 guys were waiting for us at ghim moh... shocked seeing so many things. they are just sooo "swey" staying opposite my blk in ghim moh and kena arrow to help us move. from the ground floor, take lift to 14th floor and walk down the stair to 13th floor carrying heavy boxes. still gotta walk all the way to the corner. die man... auntie in the flat also shocked watching us walked in and out uncounted times. finally, settled all the boxes and we had a drink downstair in a kopitiam.

fortunately they are helping and of course my lab tech's heavy duty trolley played an important part la... it is not only heavy duty but also very heavy. can train my muscle bringing that trolley up and down busses. moving house is not a fun thing to do but my house moving experience happened in such an interesting way. hahaha.. even so, i wouldn't want to move again in near future
