I could probably write several tales about my apartment hunting experiences. After trudging down many streets under the intolerable heat, I've finally found an apartment I think we could turn into a cosy home. After looking at 21 different apartments, I feel that He has guided me to this one, after several setbacks and misses. The agent who showed me the place was very nice and seemed pretty sincere. Young girl, JoBeth who just graduated from Berklee College of Music last year. Parents were born Philippines but she in Houston, Texas. Here's a sneak peek at our new apt, that's if everything goes smoothly and the landlord excepts my application, and if the apt has already been deleaded.

White door to the left is the main entrance, door to the right leads to the kitchen. Centre door is the closet.

Another view of the living room. Opening in the middle leads to the bedroom on the left, and bathroom on the right.

The unit is on the first floor, and overlooks the carpark. However privacy is retained as it's not on ground level and it's set back a little, from the main road, so it won't be too noisy.

The kitchen is updated, with a new gas stove with oven, and new tap fixtures and cabinets. The dishwasher isn't so new though, but we probably won't be using it. It's also big enough for a small dining table at the right corner. It's what is known here as "EIK" (Eat-in-kitchen).

The bedroom is a pretty decent size too.

Exterior view of the building, which is in the development known as St Paul Gardens. Our unit is the one marked.

Hi Guys, thanks for your msges!! I almost missed them cos I hardly ever get comments so I never check! Hey, I miss you guys too...really!!
I'm glad I've finally found a place. It was quite tedious. I'll post a pix when I've moved in proper and furnished it a little. You guys can come anytime!! Welcome welcome! Hey, the apt's going to be empty in June 08. Rent's already paid, so you can stay at my place free for a month, so start planning that holiday!!!
