Third week in HK

My furniture finally arrived !!! This is my bed =)



Living in Hong Kong, i've learnt the following lesson: Need to take a measuring tape when buying furniture. I've realised that there were so many things that i took for granted back home, reason: my mum bought everything. I'm now realising how much it costs to run a home, from buying furniture, to domestic stuff, to food. Thank goodness I didn't have to buy a table, or a fridge or a microwave =)

Due to me forgetting to bring a measuring tape, and me hoping to fit in this wardrobe in my bedroom, not realising how big it was.. i was WRONG!! so now, its ended in the living room, right next to the front door. behind the wardrobe, is the phone to let ppl in.. hehee =)



This table & TV sits opposite the wardrobe. Can you see the black chair ? It fits into the black table (theres 2 of those chairs) so the table can be made bigger. And those 2 pink chairs.... man... i don't know if i am that bad in putting things together, but me & my sis have tried to put the 4 poles together under the round bit but for some funny reason, everytime we lift up the chair, the four stands fall off.. mmh..... they are not sitable & not very stable. I thought that IKEA products were easy to put together??



Now.. off the topic abit.. my latest addiction - dark choc =) sweet and bitter... yummmmm !
After my testing of many different types .. these are my favourites!



And thanks to my beautiful sis - waiting for my furniture deliveries!!! ooh.... and her b'days on the same day as mine.. just many many years younger!!



I went to pick up my new HK ID card today and on the way home, went by Krispy Kreme. I soo miss my sydney sweets, my banana breads, my carrot cakes. Because of CNY, they have red bean doughnuts and they have this orange and mandarin one..abit scared to try.. i stuck to the original ones.. choc & colourful (hundred & thousand) like topping =)

haha...yes Ikea furniture is quite easy to put together but also can be a bit uneven and wobbly at times ;-p Perhaps try using some superglue to glue the legs of the stool to the seat of the stool?!! :-)
