Salam all..
Remember my previous post in regards to applying BTO flat which is near my parents' house? Well, we (irwan & i) did not actually get it in the first place. 2 days before the appt, we receive a bad news that the Malay qouta has reached. I was so pissed off as we had took our work leave on that day and i vent my anger to the cust service via call demanding to review the policy. Of course, there's nothing else they could do.
Fortunately, on the same month we got rejected, another BTO was build near my parents house also. So we the kanchong couple, quickly apply it minutes after is was open for application.
Alhamdulillah, we get the other BTO flat. Like finally!!! Now i feel bad venting my anger to the previous cust service officer. heh. -_- And syukur alhamdulillah that our cpf is more than enough that we do not need to take any bank loan. Irwan &i always have this principle not to have financial debt and ensure to we have $ for rainy days. Credit card and installment is a no-no.
We can't wait to get our own house! Although it's going to be completed in 2016, we like it's going to be soon. Heh.
Next, to book all the wedding preparation by this year. (not going to tell u when we will get hitch k) The price of catering, bridal, decor and etc has gone up. So better book before the price increase again.
I can't believe I am going to settle down. In my teen years, I plan to get married by 21. When I think back, ewww... what was I thinking? Although I met Irwan before I turned 21, we never thought of settling down that that age. The weird thing that for the past 5 years, we never even thought we will buy a house until this year, by random, we just apply for it. After applying it, then we start planning. Sometimes things don't work out as what we planned. It may be by accident or coincidence but we have to believe it's all for good. Now, I know why we did not get the first BTO. It was never meant for us. The 2nd BTO was so much better - better facilities, great building structure, awesome view and location compared to the first one.
Now I also know why I did not settle down at the age of 21. If it were to happen, I will have a different path.. probably I will be financially disable, probably I won't enjoy my career, most likely I won't graduate from poly, confirm I won't get to bring my family on vacation and blah blah blah. To me that I have now, it's better than that I used to plan for.
Hope everything goes well... Amin!
By the way, Happy Fasting everyone!
