chiyola says yay my new key!



yesterday was whole day shopping for our new house, it was really tiring and this morning i have aches all over. we went to sears first to look at some mattress and thereafter we went to burgerking for lunch. burgerking is ex here! same price as sing but in usd lo. but den the quality of the food here is soooo much better! yummy! i really dislike burgerking back in sing man. after lunch we went to the post office and i duplicate my house key there:


cute right!

after lunch we head to ikea in oakland. spent the rest of the day there. ate there too but o man the food there really cmi compared to sing and there were no delicious chicken wings. so sad! i miss the days when ahgohgoh and me ate like gluttons back in ikea sing =(

ok guys gotta go do homework liao, hope to show you all my room next weekend.

chiyola says i'm ready to move!!

we've finally decided on our permanent accommodation! YAY! will be staying at millbrae which is very convenient and safe with shops and eateries nearby and most of all our company shuttle is there so can save and earn money at the same time. go green when you come to work and you can earn 4 usd! anyway we can move in tomolo already but i think it is better to stay at the hotel for the last 2 weeks, got free breakfast, shuttle bus, comfortable bed, haiz if only i can stay there permanently =( the hotel room is 269 usd per night so expensive. wonder if i can join the marriotts program to redeem free stays next time?


ok this is my future house, my room is at the right second level!

this week has been shopping and slacking, am slacking now so im blogging. lol. cant wait for my next holiday which is from 25th dec to 5th jan! haven really gone into working yet, theres lots of training for us, and the next two weeks will be training too. good and bad, maybe slacker but its 5 days. o well did i complain too much? hope pay comes next week!

i have got my US line too, let me know if you guys want my US contact k. my Sing line is still active and i will check it occasionally too =) the phone plans here are damn ex so getting a new iphone is impossible!!!

next mission will be getting a driving license!
