Been really really busy lately. Too stressed up until I broke down in front of boy few days ago at his place. I guess I should have already more or less know what industry I want to be in so hopefully I can land myself in a job soon! Though I haven really been sending in applications yet -.-
After photoshoot last Saturday, we went to the new shopping centre beside Cineleisure (I forgot the name) to have our dinner. The place was called Wild Honey. Boy heard about the great reviews there so we decided to give it a try. Looks atas, and the price was not too pleasing to me. Hahaha I know I am stingy.
Wild Honey only serves breakfast meals so don't expect something like beef platter, fish and chips etc.
The habit of noting down his expenses..
Their menu are written on these chalk boards
Boy's Grilled Chicken Sandwich - $14
My 'I Love New York' Breakfast Set - $24!!!
I think my breakfast set was really great, especially the omelette and the donut-lookalike! But the price too overpriced though. Macdonald's breakfast set costs only $5? Hahaha but cannot be compared la as quoted by boy - It's the atmosphere and the feeling of people serving you that counts.
Loves!
On a side note, I happened to see loads of advertisements on Adora Green - 1st Yishun DBSS! Initially I had thought that the location is not ideal as it is too far from the MRT Station, but when I actually went online to search for the site location, I realised it was actually quite a good buy! Considering the nearby hospital, Safra, North Point Shopping Centre, walking distance to the MRT Station and Interchange! A really good catch comes at a price though - 4 room priced at minimum $420k (lower floors). I would prefer higher floors so that means a potential $500k. Almost twice the amount that a friend of mine had recently bought - 4 room BTO at Woodlands for $273k.
I really like Adora Green, considering the 40k grant that we can get since it's really near both our parents' places (like a few bus stops away) and it makes it easier for us to visit parents or vice versa. I think this is a very important aspect when it comes to choosing a home.
I told boy about Adora Green, the prices etc and his reply was as below:
"So let's say it cost $400k. Then we will need $20k just to make the down payment. Maybe we can write to the Parliament to tell them to expect a faster aging population and lower birth rate."
"I think no need. Can write to the Prime Minister instead. Dear Mr Prime Minister, this week we are thinking of buying a house. We hope to settle down on our own but we think this will take a long time. After obtaining our degrees, we need 2 years to clear our tuition loan. Then we will need another 2 years to have enough money to pay for a HDB down payment. Since it takes 5 years to get a house after we make our down payment, it will take us 9 years and 9 months to finally have a baby. Then we can spend the rest of our lives paying for the house. This does not sound like a good future. Can you advise us on which country is the best place to migrate?"
"Or.. Dear Mr Prime Minister, we are considering getting a house. We are planning to look at the show flat this weekend. Since it is a little far to walk and we won't really know where it is, we are planning to take a cab down. After checking my wallet, I realised I can only afford to take the bus. Having realised the situation, I dont know why I'm still considering to look at flats?"
Laughed my head off when I received these smses from him. Which is, I would say true especially for the 1st sms.
Something needs to done to address this problem, seriously.
Well so..... Adora Green a nono now. I am hoping in 1 or 2 years time, Sembawang, Khatib, Yio Chu Kang or Woodlands comes up with a DBSS!!
