We sealed the deal.
It's gonna be in Section 7, Shah Alam. Lemme tell you one thing. That place is like a disease. We fell in love with the place the first time. I mean, we found it when Mun and I were driving around (okay, so Mun was doin the drivin. I was doin the "I-don't-think-section-3-is-a-good-place-to-start" talk) searching the area for a good business location. It was next to the lake, it was a strategic place for marketing, it was pure white building. In our own words, "This is sooo US!" Tim liked it, and Nad loved it too.
Me? I ADORED it.
Then we were surprised by the ridiculously high monthly rent. If it was a man, it must be like a girl falling in love with a corporate guy who only likes supermodels. We tried looking for other places near the area. We found a grey corner lot house that we liked but were already taken (you should have seen how Mun sulked during lunch time), and end up cursing and hating rich people when we entered section 8 and saw huge mansions.
Then suddenly section 7 called again and gave us a good price. We went there all happy but then the agent told us that they got it all mixed up and it was not that price. Nad and Mun looked like they want to strangle the agent and kick his ass all the way to Pyongyang (wow, dah lama tak guna ayat tu).
Then Nad found this extreeemely beautiful house in BJ. Six rooms, six bathrooms, a courtyard, huge lawn, three exit doors, a bath tub, equipped with air conditioner and just friggin great. The rent was affordable too. We saw the agent and she rooted for us to get it. But sadly, the landlord kinda have second thoughts about it.
Later on we got a good deal with section 7 again, but upon calling the agent, he gives me this crap about the same mistake again. That does it. I think the last time I shouted at someone was... well... never. He was pissin me off and a bit surprised with the tone of my voice (and maybe the "I just can't do this again, you know?"), he gave me a new deal. Same place, different lot, but lower price. With Mun in Jordan and Tim waaaay back in Sabah, Nad and I (and her husband in tow) went to see the guy, paid him and get us the place.
There.
I don't believe in coincidences. But maybe, just maybe, this IS the place for us to start-up our business. It showed itself to us, it went away, but it came back again and again. "Jodoh kuat" bak kata orang. Haha.
Please don't give us anymore trouble, shoplot Jalan Kristal. You almost gave me a heart attack!
I'm excited about the renovation (but not the cost. Damn being poor is not fun). I hope we can paint the place ourselves. I wanted to make a paint party and have a nice picnic near the lake afterwards and fly my sad unflown kite.
That would be awesome.
