Somewhere to sit... somewhere to put clothes...
Furniture. Something that you cannot live without because your living space would be so empty! Or untidy... and your bum would hurt from sitting on the floor =P
So we got new furniture. I shall showcase them for you here now. The first piece was my new desk, valued at NZD $20 from the
Salvation Army - get furniture for the flat and help out a good organisation. I like that ;) Now I can study at home instead of in the office until really late. Ryan got one too but I won't take photos of his room and put them up online, he would kill me!
My desk is the white one right there. And the wardrobe on the right is a gift from one of our National Board of Advisors who just bought a whole house full of new furniture and offered this to us. It is solid mahogany and will go well in one of the rooms without a wardrobe or even better, somewhere in the hallway as Ozge suggested so we can have a look at ourselves before leaving the house. It is currently resided in front of the heater... or maybe it's been moved.
For the past week I have been working on a research report commissioned by a direct selling company. I've been at my brother's computer desk with my laptop, tapping into his superfast broadband connection. Hehe, and I've had two computers at my disposal. It feels really nice to be doing work at one computer and then turning my chair slightly to check my personal emails or AIESEC emails on the other...gives me breaks, keeps me relaxed.
It makes you think just how important your living environment can be to your sense of well-being. Even just keeping your bedroom or your lounge clean can make you happier, aye?

I'm glad the nice wardrobe made all those stairs up fine and is still pretty. I was a bit worried that day after saying "yes please" at moonsoon poon. :P
ahhh you see, Suzanne had her handyman (who's been working for her for 15 years!) bring it up the steps for us, thank goodness we had Simon there to help as well :)
Those wretched steps!!! It's a mission getting stuff up! I feel your pain, but you get an awesome feeling of satisfaction afterwards, eh?
Oh yay! You're adding to the furniture in the flat :)
Yes, adding more and more! I think V might want to buy a desk soon too cos she's studying as well. And Simon is leaving his desk behind for Yat to use.
Sharon's got a cool dining table... but I don't think we can fit it anywhere.
