The Mickey Mouse home

It's been a week since I'd gotten the keys to my new place. The past week has been a really busy one for me, from getting the house administrative hassles settled to the frequent meet-ups with my appointed ID to sourcing for teeny-weeny furniture pieces for my Mickey mouse unit.

The first time I stepped in, I was dismayed that it was so tiny! Frankly, the things people say that you choose not to believe always turn out to be true. I was told that you would always imagine your unit larger than it actually is. I don't know if the size misunderstanding arose from a misleading floor plan or perhaps I just wanted to believe otherwise!

On subsequent visits, I became more accustomed to my miniature pad and excited at the prospect of living here. Though small, the place would make a cosy little nest for 1 or 2, with enough space for entertaining a small bunch of friends occasionally! And on the bright side, cleaning will be so much more manageable! The flip side is that sourcing for furniture is now such a pain - anything nice I managed to find before would look humongous in the apartment! And having sufficient storage for my barang-barang is going to be a huge challenge.

Master bedroom. Frankly, there's only space for a queen bed and nothing more.

My cute little bunny that's been such a dear! As you know, I don't cope well under stress/duress, etc so thank you for being so supportive and tolerant of my 101 nonsensical nonsense!

The too-big balcony - perfect for that alfresco breakfast on weekends.

Modern kitchen with high-tech appliances.

Dad, Mom and VL also popped over on Saturday to lend their eyes to spot defects. They seem as excited as I am! :)

Let's hope things get going soon so that I can move in by my targeted date of 30 November 2009!
