The lights at long last!

I returned from night shift and bought breakfast for Jer. While we were having our breakfast, our dear Sebasten called me. He asked me whether we were free to shop for lights with him in the morning as he will not be free in the evening. I had planned to shop for lights in the evening cos I need my deserving sleep in the morning to noon. But since we want to settle the renovation asap, we decided to oblige to his invitation.

So I went home first to wash up and returned to Jer's house. We had arranged to meet Sebasten at our new house. When we reached the block, Sebasten's car was already parked in the car park. However, he had already gone up and asked us to go up to take a look as his painters were there. We went up and the whole house was covered in plastic sheets on the floor. 1 of the painters was painting in the house and Sebasten explained to us what his painters were going to do.

We left the house shortly and went to Chelsea Lighting. This time, a young guy served us. He showed us some new lights but we were concerned that the lights will be hanging low cos the living room ceiling is abnormally low. In the end, we chose a much simpler light for the living room and two also simple lights for the kitchen. We spent $230 for the 3 lights and Sebasten said he will help us to receive the delivery of the lights on the coming Tuesday.

Next, we suggested to Sebasten to take a look at the store which we had bought our furniture from. He drove us to the place and looked at the some of the furniture that we had chosen. He said the furniture will match the theme of the living room but suggested that we should buy our dining table maybe at Ikea as it has more choices and price ranges. We also made our final payment of the furniture.

Sebasten then sent us back to our new house. We went up and there were 3 painters (including the 1st one whom we met earlier). After a while, we bid Sebasten farewell and we went back.

I'm so sleepy and tired... *yawn* zzz..
