PLATINUM HILL, MY CURRENT RESIDENT - MOVED IN SINCE 18/6/07

I've finally moved in to my new home at Platinum Hill Condominium on the 18/6/07. It is situated behind TAR college and it's very near to Melati LRT station as well. If you take the MRR2 road to Genting Highlands, you will notice a stretch of shop lots yellow in colour along the left hand side of the road before the Petronas station with a Bomba station next to it. My condo is just before the stretch of shop lots which is orange in colour. The built-up area is 1328 sq/ft with a living hall, wet & dry kitchen, 4 bedrooms, 2 balconies, and 2 bath roooms. I like the masterroom because it is as big as the living hall.The first thing I did when I received my house key was to paint the walls with trendy colours to match with the furnitures. I love classic furnitures because it's more classy in nature and of quality workmanship. Of course, it can be quite expensive because of the quality wood that was used to make it.Besides, classic furnitures gives a strong presence and cozy ambience in the living hall especially when "yellow" lights are being used. I am quite fussy when comes to choosing the type of furniture, lights, curtains, kitchen cabinet / accesories and decoratives (eg. paintings, vases, and etc) because they must compliment each other in terms of colours, design (whether it's square or rounded edges), materials, and of course the pricing as well. My principle in choosing all these must be of unique design and value for money. There are many things which I would like to improvise in my new home but it's going to be done progressively. For those who've just moved in to your new home, take your time to shop around for home stuffs. You may get good bargains from "Homedec" and try getting some ideas from home magazines too. You may not want to hunt around too many places just for everything because some goods are just too negligible to compare on prices especially stuffs like electrical goods as the price differences is not worth your travelling time & cost (esp fuel is so expensive now). So don't end up being "Penny wise, pound foolish". Just use your intuitive sense of price tagged on the goods is "value for money" and most importantly you need to prioritize your purchase according to your budget wisely or else you may end up buying stuffs without realising that you have overspend and worse of all with mounting credit card debts. Here are some of the snapshots from my Condominium.
