Say It Again Acoustic - Marié Digby

Think about love,
is I never saw it coming
You kinda crept up
into me by surprise
And now there’s a voice inside my heart
that’s got me wondering
Is this true?
I wanna hear it one more time

Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Get just a litter louder
Say it again for me
Cause I love the way it feels when you are telling me that i’m the only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It’s like the whole world stops to listen when you tell me you’re in love
Say it again

The thing about you is you know just how to get me
You talk about us like there’s no end in sight
The thing about me is that
I really wanna let you open the door and walk into my life

Move in a little closer
Take it to a whisper
Get just a litter louder
Say it again for me
Cause I love the way it feels when you are telling me that i’m the only one who blows your mind
Say it again for me
It’s like the whole world stops to listen when you tell me you’re in love

And it feels like it’s the first time
That anybody’s ever brought the sun without the rain
And never in my whole life
Have I heard words as beautiful as when you say my name

Say it again (X9)
When you tell me you’re in love
Say it again

Projection

Time to do some projections

House ($302,010)
Online registration = $10 (Paid)
Option fees = $2,000 (Upon selection in Oct, 2009)
10% Agreement for lease = $30,000 (Payable by CPF or HDB Grant to first timers)
3% Stamp fees = $9,000 (Payable by CPF or through Eligible Additional Housing Grant)
87% Full payment = $261,000 (Payable by CPF or HDB Loan over 30 years upon collection of keys in 3-4 years time)
Fire insurance = determined by HDB

Actually they are very manageable
in fact we are more than able to achieve this
=)

Renovation in 3-4 years time when we get our keys ($40,000)
Overall renovation (including walls, partitions and lighting) = $20,000
4 inner sliding doors = $2,000
Bed = $4,000
TV = $4,000
Refrigerator = $1,800
Washing Machine = $1,800
Sofa = $1,000
In-built cupboards = $5,000
Carpet = $400

This is a super conservative calculations to make sure that we will have more than enough
and moreover, we will also be blessed with some of the items by various ones
=D

but at the same time, what was mentioned above are only the necessary items excluding the other luxurious items

Applying for HDB Loan

Just realized we need to get this HDB Loan before we apply for house

Note:
Group all documents relating to each HLE application and fax them at one go. Do not mix documents relating to another HLE application when faxing and do not fax two HLE applications at one go. 

b) By email to 
HDBCredit@hdb.gov.sg

Scan the HLE application form with the supporting documents in 
jpeg format (minimum resolution 150 dpi) in separate files. Attach them in your email indicating your HLE number as the subject. Note that each email is restricted to 2 MB. 

c) By drop-off box

First Balloting! =)

1st Consideration: Convenience
It has a very good location, situated beside the MRT station and the bus interchange.




2nd Consideration: Comfort
the structures are constructed in a way where they are not very cramp together, but there are comfortable distant separated by small gardens.



3rd Consideration: Design
The best is that we can get the one with balcony! i'm so gonna love this place, a place that belongs to just the 2 of us. =)
and most importantly, though not a fully glass house, they have got low windows! =D
