time past real fast and it was the selection day. i went down alone as hubby couldn't get the day off. i took replacement off 1/2 day. the appt time was 2.45pm which means i had time to haf a quick lunchie at Mac. i purposely chose to sit near a couple who were also there for their appt. coz they had a laptop with them checking the availability of the flats. heard them mentioned dat all the completed 4-rms BTO were taken or has no more chinese quota. heng ar, i was aiming at EA.

finished my lunch at 2.15pm, went for a toilet break and off i went to take my queue no. the room for WIS appt was at the far left of the HDB office, very near to the WIS queue counter. on the electronic board, the no. was still showing 168. long way to go liao, coz sure need time to tok to HDB officer, sign documents etc.

i sat rite in front of the board, next to a middle-age lady who was filling up the application form. she told mi her queue no. was 2000++ OMG!!! den continue to tell mi tis is her 2nd WIS application, having cancelled the 1st one (i forgot the reason liao) in between complaining dat the cost difference between one floor is a few thousands $$ (for higher floor units). well, for lower floor.. the cost difference is between $500-$1000. den she went off to submit her application.

next came an old auntie, tink ard her 50s-60s. also chit-chat with her awhile. she told mi she was together with her sis who wants to enquire if she can apply a flat with her son. asked mi where i wan to book, told her compassvale st. and she was there trying to convince mi to choose fernvale, saying how nice it is. how she give up the unit at compassvale street coz it's next to expressway. hello, who she tink she is, my MIL. i buy where i like and deem fit is best!!! end up her sis can't buy a flat coz the son who's working overseas earned more den $8k/mth. go n buy private property lah...

nt long after, abt 3pm (nt bad, oni 15mins later den my appt time) i saw my queue no., quickly went in the room. all these while, my hearbeat bcom faster fm the excitement. wow, the table (the so called 'room') was rite at the end. an officer greeted mi and ask mi which type of unit i wanted to book. i told him i wanted book an EA and he said it was good choice as the price was lower as compared to when it was first completed (sad to say but not cheaper den last yr WIS lor).

as expected, we got our first choice. in fact, we were the first to booked an EA in the cluster of 10 blks. i submitted the required documents, signed watever the officer asked mi to sign or bring back for hubby to sign and send back. it was all over in 20mins, with the officer telling mi to go 3rd floor and pay the option fee of $2k (hard earned blood-sweat $$) before i can collect the HDB invitation letter to excise my option of buying the flat. this ends my flat searching and begins my long wait (3-4mths) for the release of keys.
