Baby Step

Went to see an ID's design on Saturday. Was expecting a 3D computerised layout, but she only provided us with a hand-drawn layout, which was full of errors and not very professional, without colors.
She had failed to take note of what we wanted and did not give us a detailed quote. She just referred us to the initial package offer they had, but it was not to what we wanted.
She was the first and only ID who had drafted a layout of the house, but was another disappointment...
We decided not to go for CompleteHome D'zign....

Went to the furniture shop just next to it, think it was 'Bedding Saloon'. After trying out various Serta mattresses, bf decided to go for Sisilia range, costing $1899....It was love at first try for him. For me, I'm fine with anything...Ha!

There was actually a promotion for the Serta mattress with its 'bedframe' ($2199), but I didnt like the frame. The mattress just sit on it and the thickness looks so intimidating...Then, I spotted a bedframe with microsuede material, which could be detached for washing...Bf agreed it was nice. The original price was $1399, but since we had purchased a mattress from them, the boss agreed to let us have it for $899. It still sounded expensive, but bf said it was worth it, as we would still have to pay that price for a frame elsewhere.

We only paid a deposit for the two items, and bf made sure that the salesperson actually wrote a sentence at the bottom of the invoice, citing that full refund is possible if we are able to find the mattress at a cheaper price elsewhere...Ha!

Danger in the Park

I was jogging in a park in Jurong on Monday, when I heard a hissing sound, and spotted a black snake disappearing into a drainage hole...it was such a shock for me! I had never expected a snake in a neighbourhood park!
I suspected the snake was responsible for the absence of the rats in that park too...Prior to the incident, I had always come across many rats scurrying in the park, and always had to stay vigilant so that I woulnt step on them with my clumsy feet...
The snake terrified me so much that I could feel goosebumps on my skin, when I jogged, and instead of jogging, I ended up running away for my life...
The next day, I reported the incident to Jurong Town Council, which was responsible for that area. They despatched their pest control contractor to attempt to locate that black menace. But after two operations, they still failed to locate it. Now, would they think I'm pulling their legs?
Was I too stressed to the extent that I saw a mirage? Or was the contractor doing its work? Or did the Town Council get the right park?
Think I gotta find some other place to jog, else instead of destressing myself, I'll be stressing myself even more with the constant thought of the snake in my mind...
And one more thing...Ah Teng, watch where you run the next time...Pls wear your contacts!
