The Hiccups So Far..

Our renovation began with two idiots who have no idea what to do with the house. We bought every magazine that publishes monthly hoping to see something we like. It did not work out as things we liked are of mixed theme that's why I had a post on ROJAK theme.

Our poor ID has proposed a few layout and design which had been rejected by us. The only one accepted was the kitchen and yet I still change some details at the end of the day.

Our schedule has always been pushing back, of many reasons.

We do not have a full proof of how our house will look like. We design our own house as it progresses. Many times, we wonder does the problem really lie on us especially when we have very different opinions.

Firstly, it begin on selecting the tiles which took weeks. And then it was deciding the laminate colors when he likes it maple and I like it dark walnut.

Then it came the miscommunication on the kitchen floor tiles which wasted another week to request for permit, hack and re-laying them.

Finally, the electrical and ceiling work began! ID noticed the L-Box was wrongly done and we were informed about it. And so when it was finally changed and redone, they found another problem, the length of the recess area within the L-Box was too short for the spotlight we have purchased. The worker were very reluctant to tear everything down and redo it again as it is going to be alot of work. Fortunately, ID managed to source from another lighting shop that fits.

Next, would be the very low ceiling in our house. Now, we worried what happened if the platform is up. Bf decided to reduce it to 3-inch and we wonder if a 3-inch platform will look abnormal..

Painting should start this Tues, but fickle minded us requested to hold till we meet him again on wed and final the colors. The white on white theme will seem to go.

The tv feature and console has been taking a long time to confirm the design as well. Due to some wiring problem. My ID and Bf is still in the midst of discussing how to make it seamless.

It's going to be unexpected. It's going to be a surprise. At least I have decided on the bombshelter feature.
