Got your keys? What's next?

After years and months of waiting... 

i finally got the keys to my very own home in Yishun, Adora Green!

Like any excited couples, you would want to move into your new house straight away!
Not so that you can escape any scoldings or nagging, but simply to enjoy the space of your own.
Actually, i kinda enjoyed staying with my in-laws where home-cooked food and family gathers are not to be missed!

After getting my keys, opening to the door to my unit, the first things people should look out for, despite of the burning desires to move in, is for the defects of the contractors.

Below are just very few photos out of ALL the defects spotted. For some units, they only had very little defects, but for mine, the list went up to more than 30 items. So spot them and label them!

 This rusty hangers for the built-in cabinet seems to be quite a norm, considering it happened in 2 out of 4 of my cabinets.

 This is a rare sight but i got no idea why there is a wire there.

Scratches on the switches are also very common, but i think these are the worse so i wanted them to be replaced.

The frames in the toilet window are very badly dented, i couldn't help it but they are really obvious especially it faces the light directly from the balcony.

Missing skirting! hahaha and they even had one of my balcony walls painted halfway with grey top and left the bottom white!

But no worries, most of these are fixable but still, be very careful to check that they actually fix them!

Over shopped?

Shop, like, buy... Especially when you are away on a holiday and you have to make a decision on the spot whether to buy or not. In the end, to prevent regretting not getting what we like, we end up buying more than what we need!

Like many shoppers, i believe many of you face the same situations below:
1) Bought too many things and you do not need them all
2) Have many brand new things laying around that are not used, bought on impulse!
3) Accumulation of things over the years and some are only wore once or twice
4) Growing out of your sizes
5) Buying clothes that are not your size, believing that you will fit them one day!

Honestly, i fall into almost all of the above! I can relate to how you are feeling now because i am facing the exact same situation and thoughts are running through your mind:
"They are still brand new, i can't bear to give them away"
"Maybe i can really fit into them soon!"
"What if the fashion comes back?"
"I really love this dress/top even though i cannot fit into them"
"I only wore this twice, so wasted to just give it away"

With all these thoughts running constantly through your mind as you go through every piece of item in your closet, you will never be able to pack out anything! But once a wise man said, whatever you did not use for the past one year, you probably will not do it again~

Don't know what to do with the items that are still brand new or once wore once or twice, in perfectly new condition? Shopper's Mind is planning to start a Shopper's Mind Store to help you get rid of these items but at the same time, do good! Stay tune for more information! But meanwhile, pack your closet and take nice photos of these items!
