Salam dari Kansas City

Hello everybody, I just got my Internet cable wired at my house today. I know everybody miss me so much hehehe, so I'm back! Anyway, the moving process is very tiring. Kalu nak baca pasal trip kitaorg, visit ayah Amin nyer bloggy: wahianwar. blogspot.com. He got lotsa pictures on his blog, I on the other hand, didn't have much. And I don't want to talk much bout it, sbb skarang mcm nak muntah2 jugak la. Hehehe, asyik kemas2 barang je, dah tak larat.

So, about our duplex, tak amik gambar lagi, because there's nothing in the house yet. We went to the furniture store two days ago, looky2 at the furniture. But everything is so expensive. If we want to buy a sofa, dining table and bed all together (even yg paling murah pun), it will cost us more than $1,000. Since we do not have much money, we were thinking bout renting the furniture. So kitaorg pegi la satu kedai ni, Rent-A-Center, pastu when we ask the guy how's the payment method, he told us to look around and see if we like any. Then after we select the furniture he will tell us more. So we spent like more than an hour debating which furniture to take, pastu bile dah decide sume, that guy asked us to fill an agreement form. Mak aiii, bile tgk form tu, banyak la pulak soklannya, tanya pasal employer, landlord, parents, etc. Then we realized that we won't get the deal because they need lotsa background checkout, and Amin is not working yet. Rasa mcm bodoh jugak la kat kedai tu. Hahaha... then we just left the store.

Pk punya pk, we just decided to buy a futon so bley jd sofa and bed. So mlm tu pegi la beli futon kat walmart. Satu keje jugak kena assemble futon tu pulak. So satu mlm la kitaorg dok bertukang.


We bought the futon for $190. Good buy!

We also bought a TV stand. There was no display of the TV stand at Walmart. So we just looked at the picture on the box and decided to buy it, since it says that the TV stand fit most 27" TV (our TV is 27" by the way). So balik rumah bile dah assemble, nampak rendah la pulak TV tu atas stand. It's like, when we sit on the futon, we have to look down to watch TV. Kinda weird tgk TV mcm tu.


Since we have assembled this thing, tak boley la return balik. And Amin broke some screws masa tgh assemble hehehe. Bile tgk2 nampak hodoh jugak la kan. Dah la TV tu nampak tersepit dlm ruang yg kecik huhuhu.

So Amin said he wanted to modify the TV stand. Dia nak potong some parts so that he can use it to raise the TV level. So td ptg Amin jd la tukang kayu. Dia potong2, ketuk2, pastu pasang balik. Hehehe kesian jugak la dia because it is the first time dia jd tukang kayu (selama ni kan dia repair2 computer aje).


So here's the modified TV stand. It's not that perfect actually, sbb Amin ade potong kayu senget2 hehehe. Pastu nampak la ade gap between kayu. But overall, it's a good job for a novice tukang kayu =D

Anyway, puas hati jugak la dpt modify. Nampak TV kitaorg besar dan tak tersepit. Hehehe, mesti korang pelik kan kenapa la kitaorg semangat2 pasal TV ni. Actuallynya esok kitaorg akan dpt TV cable, so Amin ckp dia nak siapkan TV ngan stereo home theater sume hari ni. Tomorrow after the TV cable has been installed, we can just watch TV all day long :)
