Another Busy Saturday

Wow! 2 busy Saturdays in a row. I guess I'm really fully utilizing my off days not to rest but to get things done. Again, my day started early as I headed down to my condo to supervise the on going renovation works. Also had to meet up with the electrician as I needed to tell him where I want to move certain light points and where I wanted extra light points. I bet you guys are really curious as to how the reno is coming along, well...here are just some shots on the initial stages.

Later, I went over to source for tiles for the balcony. I didn't like the standard tiles that the condo came with because it look too, well..standard! I was recommended by Terence of this tile factory warehouse somewhere in PJ. Terence, TJ and myself actually went there last Wednesday during lunch time and I saw something that I really like and it was going for so cheap (factory warehouse mah). I wanted these dark grey homogeneous tiles that will no longer be in production once the stock clears but then apparently whatever balanced stock that they have were reserved by some Dato'. WTF! Just because you're some bigshot doesn't give you the right to take everything. I did asked if I could "steal" some as I don't require much for my small balcony. The lady told me that it was ok because the fucking big shot didn't even pay a deposit! See lah...want to book all but don't want to pay sommore. So typical of Malaysian "bigshots" sigh! Anyway on Wednesday, I told the lady that I will be back on Saturday to purchase it once I took the right measurements. I then picked up 5 boxes of tiles. Freakin' tiles are so heavy that they needed a forklift to carry it out for me. My car is now a few inches lower because of these boxes...haha!





Ain't these tiles nice for my balcony?



After lunch, I went sourcing for kitchen stuff. Man!..complete kitchen systems are so darn expensive. It seem everything I like or seems nice are imported from Italy or Germany. Later that evening, I was at Mines Beach and Spa Resort for TJ's wedding dinner. Yea this is the same couple from Seremban last week. The wedding was held by a man made beach which I thought was really great but only one problem...it was too HOT! Imagine the groom and his groomsmen having their pictures taken in their suits at around 6PM! But what to do...they wanted the sunset shots mah.



Fortune cookie. Mine read: "Your outlook and charm are your greatest assets". =)





Congrats to the happy couple



With Nik & Sherin of RedRibbon Days



You just know we are all drunk and tipsy when people start wearing sunnies at night!


Overall, the wedding dinner was great. The service however, was terrible. We actually had to bribe the waiter to bring us drinks and to keep the booze coming. So much so, it was an eventful day for me with it ending with me having to drive home 2 "Casualties of War". Phew!
