Happy One Year Anniversary!!!
Over the weekend, it was our first step of our nightmare. Why? Saturday King and I spend nearly 5 hours at the bridal shop just to choose and fit our gowns and suits. Never thought it would be so damn tiring for us to play barbie doll. But all the effort is worth it after all. King and I has done choosing our gowns and suits.
Sunday was also another terrible day. Why? It took us 4 hours just to shift and move all the big bulky items from Woodlands Drive 44 block 552 to Marsiling Drive block 25 even though it's within the same estate (what the crap). A big thanks to King's colleagues who came to our rescue, didn't know what to do without them. Wanted to buy them lunch but they had other plans, will make it up to them some other time.
Marsiling Drive block 25, will be our temporary home for the next 3-6months before the keys to our new home is ready for collection and renovated. Our first appointment with HDB will be changing it to 4th of May instead as King has to sail for exercise from 27th to 30 April. King is worried that I may have difficulties adapting to the new change but i will try my very best so please don't worry about me my dearest King.
Yesterday was our one year anniversary but yet we still have to settle some minor stuff. Waited close to 2 hours at HDB, Woodlands outlet just to apply for the open space season parking for King's parent's place as it's a hot spot for parking. We also open an joint savings account with UOB to save up for the rainy days ahead of us and to pay for the expenditure of our new house.
Had a simple dinner at Yishun, Northpoint shopping centre after buying Donut's doggy food etc. Didn't expect for my dear King to surprise me with my favourite Lilies this morning at office. King had gone for sailing today and will only be back on Thursday morning. I will get to see King after my work. Just want to say - Happy One Year Anniversary Dear, I will love you as long as i shall live.Labels: Happy One Year Anniversary

Have you ever....
Have you ever in your life thought of not working, not studying etc? All you wanted to do is stay home rot, sleep all you want, watch the TV as much as you like or even play all you want on the computer? Thoughts of doing all that flood your mind before? Wouldn't it be great if you can do all that and don't have to worry about earning a living?
As a matter of fact, i did ever thought of it before. There are many a times that i really don't feel like working or should i say i just don't feel like doing anything at all. All i wanted was to stay home rot, sleep, watch TV, play on my laptop and eat like nobody's business. I was once told by my doctor that those are signs of depression.
Is it really depression that I'm falling into? Or is it because of I just want to find a way out to release all the great amount of stress that is bottled inside me? What is stress? Does everyone has stress and that they are not aware of it? What is depression? Is it just a feeling or a face everyone has to go through it?
Stress is an interpretation of an event or circumstance which is understood to be a threat. It can be any force or pressure put on a system (living or nonliving) which may result in a need for the system to adapt or change. Stress on human beings is like a rubber band. You also stretch to meet the environment around you, the demands of your lifestyle, and the pressures you put on yourself. If pulled too far, stress manifests itself in real conditions mentally, physically, and emotionally. Like a rubber band breaks when stretched too far, human beings have a breaking point too.
In medical terms, Depression is an illness that causes a person to feel sad and hopeless much of the time. It is different from normal feelings of sadness, grief, or low energy. Anyone can have depression. It often runs in families. But it can also happen to someone who doesn't have a family history of depression. You can have depression one time or many times.
So is it depression that cause me to feel not doing anything including working? Or is it stress that is the actual cause of it? Or is it that i 'm just find an excuse for myself to escape from work etc? What do you think? Are you facing the similar situation that I'm facing and going through now? Or you are going through a different phase?

Finally found.....
Had been very or i should say super busy coping with new house hunting very since after Chinese New Year till now. Thought shortly after Chinese New Year, my property agent managed to find me a buyer and close the deal of selling my house away but it doesn't ease all my problems. King and I went house hunting whenever we are free and at times i went hunting alone.
After 1 tiring month of house hunting, I'm proud to announce that King and I have found our dream home. Our new place will still be around Woodlands area but closer to Woodlands MRT and Causeway Point Shopping/ Civic Centre. Our new place is a low rise block and we live on the third floor with 1 neighbour beside our unit. On top of that, the block has received news on upgrading of lifts.
The good news is there wouldn't be any neighbours above our unit (ha ha ha) as it's a maisonette that we bought. The unit was value at 405K but the owner of the unit agree to and had let go of the unit to us at a low and reasonable price of 380K. Not to worry, the owner agree to let go at a lower price not because they owe money, the reason being so is they had purchase a new condo somewhere is Jurong area.
Met up with the agent last night to hand him the option exercise fee cheque on top of the cheque we have passed him for the option to purchase over the weekend that just pasted. The agent told us that he will submit the documents this afternoon and that our first appointment with HDB will be tentatively 29th April in the afternoon. King and I are so excited about it he he. Oh we also received the floor plan to our new place (need to start planning how to design and renovate).
I had went for my first appointment with HDB for selling my house last Friday on the 6th. The HDB officer mention that the second appointment will within 1st April to 15th April. This gives me another headache as on the second appointment i would need to over the keys and vacant the whole house to the buyer. King and I needs to start packing our stuff back to his parents place as soon as possible for this case then.
Well thank god, at least both selling and buying of house issue has been settled (hopefully we can get the keys to house by end of May). I'm going to ask around for quotations on renovating our new house soon he he. All i have to do next is consentrate on my wedding as we will be going for our gown chosing and fittings this month 28th.
