Came to a decision...

This week seems liked a bad week for me. Because of the new appointment I'm holding now, everything just seems not to go too smoothly. I must really brush up on my paperwork.

Well, today got into a little arguement with my sister... Its about the house again.... Sometimes, people must understand that i had my own plannings. I not refering to my Sister's suggestions (I really appreciate what she had done for the family) or what not... Its sometimes my very own relatives... They are always giving lots of suggestions but never once put themselves in my shoes... What adds on to it is I had an elder brother who "doesn't really seems to care much" about this issue at all. I am the youngest afterall!! Besides my Sister who is in overseas right now, why do I seems to be "handling" the family alone?

But through all these years whenever unpleasant things happened, I always tell myself, "God is showing me that this is a typical example I should not follow." or "These things happened because God wants to train me to be a more independant person. To build me up into a better family planner. So next time when I become the "Head" of my own family, things will not repeat again..."

I'm tired telling myself all these.....

People must really understand that all these are major decisions! I must think about it carefully because I'm not the kind of person who will only solve current problems 1st, the rest when the time comes then talk about it! I'm the kind of person who plan... I'm the kind of person who will ask myself questions liked "If now i take this step, how will it affect me or rather, us, in the long run...If this happens will I be able to handle?"

Anyways, after my conversation with my sister, I ask my mum for HDB pricelist and called up one of my friend who is a agent. I met up with her and ask if there is anymore solution to this matter... Her answer is quite clear..."Your parents is too old for another reloan..."

Well, i guess i had to put aside one of my goals (by 35, i will buy a condo..) and start my calculations once more.

When I'm on my way home, my mum called me at 4.30am and asked me where am I. Told her that i was on my way home but actually was at Pasir Ris Beach doing some thinking and reflections... After the conversation, I've decided...(but i don't know if can go according to my plan anot...)

We will sell the house and purchase a new flat at Sengkang/hougang/pungol area. The flats are cheaper there. No point carry on paying the current one, where everybody especially my dad had to slog liked a mad man, trying to make ends meet every month. Will find out from HDB if i can use my name and my mum's to purchase a new house, using my CPF and get a reloan from HDB as I 1st time applying for a flat. If this happens, all problems solved.

Got to call up my insurance agent today as well... To withdraw my CPF investment of 17k back to my CPF. Lots of stuff to think and do today.

Guys, wish me luck!
