The developer for my future home held an open house of sort earlier this month for house buyers and also the public in general. Since my wife is enthusiastic when it comes to everything concerning our new home, I thought why not. Who doesn’t like free food right? Actually she’s been aiming at the door gift which is a little blanket sheet. The event started at noon but we only got there an hour later. Lucky for us the door gift is still available. The food? Not so much. I mean all the good food like roasted lamb and satay anyway. Apparently they were serving those two dishes in stages, like at the beginning of the event and towards the end. We had to wait until 2:00PM before they serve those again which really piss me off. Are they saving the good food for the VIP guests like Amyra Rosli? If so then bloody hell, we should be the VVIP guest since we’re the one buying the place. I don’t care about no half-baked actress/singer, I just want my roast lamb dammit!

Anyway sucky food aside, the other main purpose of our visit was to take a sneak peek at our finished home. For one day only, they’re letting all home-buyers entrance to their respective neighbourhood so we took that chance to take a look at ours. It looked slightly smaller than the showroom but it is still nice. I don’t know whether to look forward to moving in to the new house because of the impending cost associated with it. But like it or not we’ll have to move in the new house because we can’t afford to pay for two houses at once. Our old Casa Riana home will be out for rent, hopefully as soon as we moved to Serene Heights. But first the bank will have to release the full amount of our loan to the developer and only then will they handover the keys to our new home.

Back to our new home, we didn't really plan on going into the house since we don't have the keys yet. But as luck would have it, the sliding doors wasn't locked so I just push it open and have a little tour of the house. First impression: it was a lot bigger than our current home (obviously) and the bathrooms were really nice. It will take a lot of our time and money to turn this one into a proper home. To be honest, I still don't where will we get all the money to do that.
