又快老一岁了。。。

finally, settlement has been completed, keys collected, and got in contact with some painters, and was informed that the painting will be completed by Friday. We have decided to go with Dulux colour Chintz Quarter, brown based, alot of the painters recommended a colour called Hog Bristle, but we decided to try this color instead, so hopefully it will turn out ok... we will find out on Sat :)

water has been organised, electricity and gas through Energy Australia, and broadband which has yet to be organised will be through Optus... went furniture shopping on the weekend, spent alot of money and exceeded my credit card limit, crap... organised carpet cleaning to happen on 28 Aug, which means the cleaning has to be finished by then... and after that, it would be a matter of waiting for the furniture to be delivered... we still have to buy a book shelf, phone, and possibly a lounge set... and of course, the other bits and pieces like cutlery, pots and pans...I am going to give myself a pat on the back becos I pretty much did most things myself, yes I did get some help from uncle and other people here and there, but I was the one chasing up stuff most of the time... from looking for a place, to looking for a conveyancer, to completing paperwork, to sorting out the finances, to looking for painters, to buying furniture... and it's still ongoing atm...

don't think auntie is that happy about us moving, which I don't understand, bcos it means that there is less 2 people to feed and do stuff... and it's not like it was a sudden decision... anyway, nothing very much I can do at this stage... 

completed watching this other korean drama called can love become money, it was alright, it only got interesting towards the end actually... did not like the female lead... now rewatching some shows, cos no other nice shows to watch atm, still ongoing... 

work-wise, we are still busy, not that the workload has increased but more the fact that we are so short of staff... and just the other day, I was saying I have been in Aged care for almost a year now, and have yet to do a guardianship report, and I must have jinxed myself, because now I have 2 reports and potentially another one on the way... and Collette's due to return next week, personally, I prefer Deanna, cos from previous experience working with Collette, she is not the most organised person... and you really have to keep chasing her to do things... so if Collette really does come back next week, I will be stuck with her for the next 2 months... 

looking forward to this weekend! I just have to get through this week first :(

PiSS oFF...

I am sooooooooooooooo annoyed with this whole property crap...

firstly, the property manager is refusing to liaise with me directly about the cleaning despite the fact that they are the ones who are responsible for organising this, and now the agent is not responding to my call and email...

secondly, received an email from the conveyancer stating that they will only let me know how much I need to pay on Mon and expects me to drop off the cheque in the city on Tues... No freaking way, do they actually think I am sitting around waiting for their instructions???!!! I actually am working fulltime to be able to pay off this property!

I AM SO ANNOYED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As per Gary, STRESS!

HappY NatiONAL dAY...

finished watching Big awhile ago, the ending sucked, no definite ending, just like rooftop prince... moved onto I do I do, which actually turned out better than I thought it would, the main male lead is quite funny... currently watching King 2hearts, it's ok, almost at the halfway mark, it's looking like it's a one off show for me, and Seunggi looks really bad in this drama for some reason... now that the Olympics are here, most of the dramas have been delayed, which is very annoying... not really chasing the Olympics like I used to back in 2008, mainly due to the time difference and got better shows to watch ie korean dramas :)

met up with mel and her boyfriend yesterday at chatswood, went to takeru for dinner, and then Zen Q for dessert, I am so envious, seems like people are all on hols, fran also went to Europe for 3 weeks, whereas I am stuck here working, and stressing about the unit thing... 

the property, headache... went to do the pre-settlement inspection on sat, and the unit looked like it was not cleaned, and even the agent said that it looked like it was only done half-heartedly, and there was a broken hinge on one of the cupboards in the bathroom... so the agent was going to speak to the property manager and organise another pre-settlement inspection... today received an email from the agent indicating that the property has been cleaned, I was so pissed, sent an email back to the agent and also to the conveyancer, advising that I am not happy with settlement next week until these has been sorted. This delay is stressing me out, becos this means that the painting will be delayed, the household stuff and the moving will be delayed... I was hoping that with papa and mum here, they could help out with these... urgghhh... things better work out well, otherwise I am going to refuse to settle next week.

the weather has been really cold especially in the mornings, today Hyungie's thermometer said 1 degrees outside, worried if nainai will be able to cope with the cold... my R ear was blocked for the last 2 weeks, I think due to my being stingy and using an expired eardrop, thankfully after 2 weeks of not being able to hear and having to go through 3 times of syringing, it's now cleared, both ears... I never want to go through this experience again... it was painful :(
