Our First Car


Richard and I went car shopping today! Richard has been doing all the research for the past few months... and his final two choices were Mazda 2 and Hyundai i20. 

I was quite neutral about the two at first. But after seeing and testing driving both cars, I had  a preference for Hyundai .. mainly because it came with a 5year warranty, capped servicing for the next 3 years, fuel saving, relative spacious interior compared to a Mazda 2, has 6 airbags, road-side assistance up to 7 years just as long as we returned to Hyundai for servicing.

Having said that, the steering wheel was a little bit too light for my likings... but that was the only complain i have for the i20.

Richard on the other hand, preferred the Mazda 2, mainly because it was more 'powerful' (1.5 litre, i20 is a 1.4 litre), had cruise control and... (i'll let Richard continue with his list... LOL)

However, Richard didn't like the shape of the Mazda 2 cause to him it looked like a turtle! HAHA


After some consideration, Richard respected my choice of car... but he didnt seem happy too.. which is what I'm worried about now! Did I make the wrong choice? sigh....

Nonetheless, this is our first ever car together.. the Hyundai i20!
Hopefully it brings us great times together..

Bee.. let's name our first car!!

Thanks my Bee!!!

5 more days!!!!!

I wasn't completely excited when I was thinking of the days before I leave for Melbourne last week.

But now that I realise its only 5 days left, I feel thrilled!

I have managed to get my flights booked in a very weird hour (6.50am)

My new boss has given me a few days off when I move next week so I can settle down..

I managed to get a free box approved and shipped overseas to melbourne by the company (containing mostly work item)

I have got an accommodation sorted, not too far away from Ai and around 40 minutes to work each way.

I sorta know what kind of car to buy but will need to sort it out when I go over.

Anyhow, I feel that I have gotten most of the big things settled for now.

Let's hope I don't forget anything important....

2 more weeks

Exactly 2 more weeks before I officially migrate to Melbourne!

Finally, everything is working well and I'm starting to feel a little excited.

Lots of changes but I feel mentally prepared.

Oh by the way, found something random of youtube that I found really "artful"..^^

Supportive Fiance

This post is dedicated to my fiance who has been really patient and really supportive of me for the past few months.

I've been really busy and stressed about my 4th year in psychology lately. With work, studies and applications all on my table.. I actually do feel a little overwhelmed and have not been in the best of mood.

Fortunately, I have a really understanding and patient fiance who has tolerated me for the past few days.. and have helped with the wedding planning and all.

Just wanna say a bit thank you for my one and only.. Fiance- Richard Tan!

Dunno what i would do without you.. thanks for you unconditional love and support. *muacks*
