visited shermaine's new house for group gathering on sat last wk. pot luck event where each of was to bring a food item.

and this was my contribution. supposed to be juz plain hotdogs in steam and fry style.. but it turned out more like a hotdog cum veg cum fruit salad. haha. all thanks to mum.

it's a nice nice condo unit at novena.. at top floor.... the lift is super cool. it's a totally transparent lift. imagine u get to see the view outside from 1st floor all the way to the top floor (32 storey, if i remb correctly). it's like sitting on one of those amusement parks rides.

look at the view behind!!

nice and comfy house! imagine coming home to enjoy such nice views! shiok lah!  but it really isint cheap. this unit costed $1.6m! i guess it's more or less that price for a top storey condo at central area. but if im not wrong, she could have top-up another $2-300k for a terrace, but probably an old one in an ulu location lah. but.. it's still a landed lor.. vs a condo.... mmmm..

yy, wad's ur view?

~ this was not taken at the house, but one of the lunch outings. does it look like we were at sushi tei? doesnt look like it rite.. but the fact is, we were lor. juz tt we were seated outside the restuarant at some ulu corner. this was the outlet near china sq. stunned how they managed to create so many seats at the back, outside the restaurant.. mmm but seriously, not too nice sitting here lor... i mean, we paid the same price but for the less restaurant ambience.. boo ~

 o yup, and these 2 are my 2 closer new colleagues. really nice pple. :)

recently happened to know of a $39m good class bungalow and out of curiousity, hubb and i had a drive around that rich men area to kpo at the ppties there. u wont believe it.. but some of the houses there are as big as the good old radin mas community centre below my house. kaoz! bloody B.I.G lahh! 

then, happened to read in the papers yesterday of some of the most exp houses in singapore. apparently, the most exp pty is $100m with floor area as big as 63 5-rm flats combined!

it's really wtf leh.. y the hell would u want such a big house for??? how many pple do u have to stay in there?? 3 generations of pple huh?

land are already sooo scarce in singapore and ppties are already so expensive. yet these pple.... own the lands, build big houses, juz to house that few pple. u know how many pple can be house if the land is used to build multi storeys flats??!

really cannot understand leh. these pple.. confirm too much money and nowhere else to spend. if not, y would u want a house that has no liquidity (becuz no one else can afford to buy!)?! they better pray for many many offsprings so that the pty can be pass down to next generation. if not.......

the land belongs to u. the house belongs to u. but when u die and u have no one else to pass to....

it'll juz be a vacant house.... sitting on precious land..

*speechless*
