each centimetre
July 16, 2012Right now, Dean and I are shuttling between both parents’ houses. One week here, one week there. Thanks to both Moms and Dads for letting us do that so that I can delay cooking and cleaning.
We’re just starting to fill up our new home together, so we’ve started scouting for furniture and stuff.
I found out some new stuff:
1) Furniture is super duper expensive
2) Furniture shopping is tiring
3) Furniture shopping is so much fun
I saw a little girl in a furniture shop (I’m not talking about me, ha ha very funny…) and she was groaning and looking sooo bored. And I smiled to myself. Man, that was me more than 10 years ago. I guess you really know when you’re an adult when you think comparing 2 couches that look exactly the same is fun.
Before we went for all that, we visited our new home with some necessary friends:
Shirt: Dude & The Duchess
1) A measuring tape
2) A notepad
Dean of course became the poor guy who had to measure each cm of our walls.
While I put on my architect cap and bossed him around.
Cardigan: Chic Yamada
After a while, we succeeded in measuring every single wall. So now we can finally decide on which furniture fits best.
At the end of the day, I have good news and bad news for myself.
The good news is that I managed to convince Dean that we didn’t need a study room. Instead, we need one whole room as my wardrobe and shoes room. With a big island in the middle for all my….whatever, I’ll find stuff to put there. An island, guys! My own island! Sighhh…. I’ve always dreamed of this day *jumps for joy* *menaresoeasy*
The bad news is I will never become an architect even if I tried hard.
Just look at my proportions.
I don’t want to grow up.
u guys looked sooo young in previous pics… until i saw the photos in this post.
guess that’s what married life does to you =D
great crib u have there, btw.
You look tanned! In a lovely way. π

Salam –
vivy, bilik khas utk solat, jgn lupa…huhuhuhu
like a tailor-measuring tape?!!! SERIOUSLY?!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA you’ve guys are cracking me up!! you guys should use a PROPER measuring tape…or invest one in laser measuring device…its better, easier, and safe alot ALOT of time in measuring the house!…..
on another note…not advice to have a one room specifically for wardrobe only..If you’re staying in an apartment that is!…seriously..u have to think about the 2-4 years down the road of expansion…and i’m not kidding!!!…Been there and done that!!
I love the idea of turning the study into your wardrobe. I am having trouble with bursting closet right now that I’m slowly encroaching on my husband’s space >_<. So kudos on managing to convince him. No harm in doing so if you have 2-3 other rooms for future kids.
hehe, thanks Vivy, you just gave me an idea to persuade Hubby to have my very own room/walking in wardrobe π
HAHAHA you guys measured the entire apartment with THAT measuring tape??? seriously guys.. go to the shop and buy the proper one! kesian fadza, that must’ve been pretty troublesome. plus the measures might not be accurate btw π
don’t forget to share with us some photos once your walk-in wardrobe is done!
soket plug tu pun kena locate kat mana. senang nak adjust kat mana nak letak perabot itu ini π
