Night Owls Chatterboxes - Part XXIII!

Hmmm..........I know what you mean. It's definitely easier if there's another body. Just to bounce off ideas as you go along. It's hard long distance. Got to have someone personally in your apartment.
But it seems you are getting there, so that's cool! Oh, do I dare to even ask how you feel about leaving your apartment. Mixed feelings too? Happy/fond memories in there eh, I am sure. Oh, pardon me....not my intent to bring a tear. Even as I type, I feel sentimental, myself. Argh....me and myself!

Not about to pay a couple of thousand for freight!Originally posted by littlestream:Wah, jia lat also hor? Many stuff leh.
Get get pro packers/forwarders or not? No need to book the whole container, by consignment. Maybe a couple of thousands for freight? Then, can bring everything lor. Idea?
Wah, so soon already eh........moving out? Wah, momentum and excitement building already hor? I can anticipate for you, actually! 
Going to keep most of my stuff in the warehouse here first. Maybe, when I get PR, and then have my own apartment, then only will I ship my stuff over. -
Yeah, we are very blessed! Cannot thank the Good Lord enough, for everything we have and everything we are.Originally posted by Rhonda:Such a well-mannered boy, hor? You must be so proud!

Yeah, make sense, make sense.Originally posted by Rhonda:Not about to pay a couple of thousand for freight!

Anyways, sounds like you have pretty much under control liao yah. It will be what? Autumn when you land? Got to check weather condition and pack appropriate too eh? -
At this point in my life, littlestream, to be honest, I soooo wish that there was a somebody special to share this experience with!Originally posted by littlestream:Hmmm..........I know what you mean.

It would be so fun to pack together, to plan together, to egg each other on. I've been a Lone Ranger for far too long liao! It gets overwhelming sometimes!
Worse, SL isn't here. She's my best friend and having her around just makes me feel more reassured, y'know?
Well, I've got mixed feelings about this apartment. Truth be told, I hate this place!
I wanted to move out two years ago when my flatmates moved to Jurong, I intended to just rent a master bedroom with some family in this neighbourhood, but mom was grumbling about me moving too many times in a year (although come to think of it, don't know why she was so adament then cause it didn't involve her leh!) To keep her quiet, I said, ok, I'll stay put! I think she was worried that I'll move too far away cause she likes it that I'm just living in the next block. Maybe, she finds that comforting.
Anyways, this apartment is dark, the neighbours are noisy, they spit along the corridor, etc. I don't like living on the 2nd floor... can't even use the bin under the sink cause it was taped up by the previous tenant and when I tried to remove it, I realised why... cockroaches and what-not will sneak out of the crevices one!
So, I reinforced the taping instead!
Now, lagi jialat... because of the upgrading, people can actually climb up to my flat because there's a gondola parked just underneath and it's easy to scale up to my kitchen windows! Even I would be able to do a spiderman and climb up to my window! 
So, kinda happy to leave. Back to a higher floor, back to mom... oh, and dad! hahaha! Will take a bit of getting used to since I've lived alone for wah... more than 10 years liao!
Feels like... going home! -
How nice if by winter, there'll be someone to keep me warm, hor?Originally posted by littlestream:Yeah, make sense, make sense.
Anyways, sounds like you have pretty much under control liao yah. It will be what? Autumn when you land? Got to check weather condition and pack appropriate too eh? 
Anyways, daydreams are free, so can daydream as much as I want!
To be honest, I feel like a squaw... a Red Indian girl... I kinda feel it's so brave like that, stepping out into unfamiliar territory, seeing if I can 'make it' there, settle there, find my own niche there.
I remember what mom told me a few years back when she realised that in my corporate job, I had to give presentations in front of the company Directors who were mostly ang mohs and field questions and she said, "Daddy and I thought that you're so brave, wondering where you got that dragon's courage from!" Seeing her so proud of me made me wanna melt!
Kinda like how my cats must have felt when I looked at them lovingly and petted them and told them how beautiful and what a "Goooooooood Boy / Girl" they were, and they'd go all weak in the limbs and roll over, belly up, cause kah neng neng liao! -
Awww........*hugs Rhonda tightly*
I know what you mean. But you come out of this experience so much richer, in life. There's always two sides to a situation. A matter of which side we choose to take prominence in our lives.
Wah, sounds like the flat quite jia lat eh? Anyways, good that you will be spending time with your parents before you make your move. I'm happy for you. Things are into place, slowly but surely!
For now, enjoy S'pore, right? -
Y'know, littlestream, it's nice to have a man to look up to sometimes! Someone who's smarter than you, someone who can lead you sometimes, someone who knows what to do. Then I can be lazy a bit, and don't need to think nor worry nor plan so much.
It gets tiresome having to take care of everything. I mean, I can do it, but I'd much rather share the tasks with someone else.
But... no choice... no one in the horizon leh! Use binoculars also cannot see a teeny meeny silhouette! Jia lat! -
Hee hee...........
I'm sure no need winter.......and I will be reading posts about your rendevouz liao.
You still have my email ID to keep me posted of the juicy details, right? -

I did pray since last year, that I be given the opportunity to slowly slide into my new life. I didnt' wanna be all stressed up planning the big move and all that, and I think God has been extremely gracious to me and has granted me a lot of time to get rid of the bad experiences at work, to enjoy Chinese New Year with my family, attend my brother's wedding dinner, and then, to slowly pack and move back to mom's place.
After the move, I would probably have to start revising my nursing stuff liao. See, everything happens nicely! I kinda prayed that things will fall into place, and there were times when I wanted things to happen faster, but somehow, something inside me would always say, "In God's good time..."
I'm taking it slow and easy... afterall, that's the best way to start a new chapter of one's life! -
Must email, cannot PM ah?Originally posted by littlestream:Hee hee...........

I hope I can get a nice apartment at a good rental rate there! And then, have to look into purchasing a PC and applying for cable connection and what-not. Not sure how long the entire process will last though.
This experience will definitely make me stronger one. I look forward to feeling peace amidst solitude again. It's time to just work hard, and quietly pay the bills and play hard sometimes.
And this time round, I can play hard without going broke! -
I COMPLETELY knows what you mean!!!Originally posted by Rhonda:Y'know, littlestream, it's nice to have a man to look up to sometimes!

I am like that now. My MIL told me "women no need to be too smart. kena do many things. so, just pretend to be dumb and hubby will have to chip in."
I think we took so many years to grind or fine tune our marriage and still fine tuning. There is really no end because the world is moving, changing. Every new situation, we have to learn to deal with it and if mistakes are made, learn to improve the next time, similar situation occur.
I think relationship is a never ending education. Or inter-personal skills, for that matter.
hee hee......aiyah, you beginning to sound like Bear lah. He always says looking for Mrs Bear. jetta and i hinted to him that she has appeared, he also cannot see. aiyah, suit his siggy ah. "having eyes but not see".
no need bino lah, rhonda........he will come........... such an attractive gal, in looks and personality.......if only you snap your fingers, they will be standing in line liao. your wit and humour..........i think we have all been beneficiaries of that. -

Ahhh.........He is with you.........guiding you along. Yeah, some things can't be rushed! And it looks like it is a well-planned schedule you got there! No cramp or last minute stuff.
And I believe in you, Rhonda......you ARE going to make it and be alright!!! -
I have a feeling that if Rhonda can survive packing her stuff .... there's nothing she has to be afraid of liao ... -
