In Pursuit of Life, Liberty and Laughter
Little boxes on an island, Little boxes made of ticky-tacky, There's a green one and a pink one and a blue one and a yellow one and they're all made out of ticky-tacky and they all look just the same. And the people in the houses All go to the university, And they all get put in boxes, Little boxes, all the same. And there's doctors and there's lawyers and business executives, and they're all made out of ticky-tacky and they all look just the same.

Nova Furniture

Nova Furniture

Did i mention that my family and i went to get some new sofas and coffee table before Chinese New Year comes in about.... a month?

Kay. We aren't rich so forget about the luxury furniture stores. We settled for Nova furniture. It was a unforgettable horrible experience. Because it was so bad we could not ever ever forget this. It's not about the service but the ambiance.

THE MUSIC WAS A TORTURE TO OUR EARS. IT COULD HAVE DROVE US OUT BEFORE WE COULD SETTLE FOR SOME SOFAS AND TABLES.

The music was so chink, so ah beng / ah lian type. I suppose if you go to some super duper china beng karaoke you can get these sort of music. How the hell is the possible for the workers to listen to that kind of music 5 days a week, 8 hours a day?

Thankfully, we endured that and finally got some furniture! The sofa wasn't to my liking compared to the others. The coffee table too. Majority wins right? 3 - 1.

Couple of reasons that made me give up on convincing them. Dad said "who is paying? not you riggghttt? *smiles*". Brother said " I dislike curvy sofas". uugggghhh.

As for the coffee table.. Dad said "Hey. This coffee table has more drawers than the one you picked for the same price". Ugggghh. Style over functionality please!!!!

What to do.. I guess we will be stuck with those furniture for a long time to come...

And oh. We so need a new dining table. The loooooong marble table might be very expensive but it is so OUTDATED. I need a new chair for my table too. I'm eyeing on one from IKEA. Less than a $100. Yaaayyy!
