Mackiddo, thks 4 d info...I'll go n get d brochure @ IMM...

I'm waiting for the iPhone 3GS to arrived. Has been waiting for it since the rumours about version 3.0 coming out. Hopefully they will have priority for corporate members like the 1st time they launched.

Thanx!

I have no experience though. Just finished my final year classes and waiting to graduate in August. Maybe will venture abroad after gaining 2 years experience here in Malaysia.

i will be working in singapore next month. only been there once when i was a small kid. how you guys find accomadation? i was looking for a place to rent, somewhere near dover/buona vista MRT. I was told that area is expensive. You think i can get a room under $500 or better still $400?
how much is your expenses/month? mind to share? i estimate $500=accomadation, $400=food, $100=transport, so $1k/mth. is that roughly correct? so scared, never live alone b4, all this while live with mom&dad.

freestyle, probably another ~200 for phone, broadband and other incidentals like shopping, restaurants and taxi rides when you're late etc.

The rest look ok if you're not choosy.

Clover/buona vista room for under 400, more like fantasy since i have a fren over there, even utility room around 400. Common room around 500, not including air con of course.

You want cheap accomodation, try woodlands, sembawang or yishun. Toa Payoh or braddell is ok if you want near city centre.

Donno why since i moved to braddell, my m1 mobile bb damn slow, signal bar 4 level but speed around screamyx 512k.

I think i can live in a utility room for $400. let me get this straight, utility room is a room with a door, and a common room is like a living room with no door, hence no privacy, am i correct? my hunting ground is on www.propertyguru.com.sg. do u guys know any other sites where i can find accomadation? i saw many adverts renting common room, what i dun get it is how can someone live in a living room? is it the other occupants dont hang out in the common room once it is rented out? sorry for being blur, cause i never rented a room before

In Singapore, bedrooms are referred to either as (1) master bedroom or (2) common room. So, common room is a 'normal bedroom'... either no attached bathroom or shared bathroom.

Utility room is the utility room or store room. When the HDB flats are upgraded, they typically add a small room to the back. It's about 1/2 to 3/4 the size of the common room. Some will use it as a storeroom and others will use it as an additional bedroom.

Using the living room as a sleeping area is only when the flat is turned into foreign worker accomodation lah.

I know foreign labour workers who like to sleep in the living room rather then the common room since its much more airier then a standard room which can be quite stuffy. Bear in mind they dont have air-con so its understandable if you have a choice of sleeping with 3 other fella in a common room or in a spacious living room, which would u choose?

You have 2 be kful when choosing a utility room, some of those rooms got no ventilation or even if it has a window, got no wind so it will be very stuffy, to the point that like sauna.

Best would be to find an air con utility room.

My landlady chose floor-to-ceiling windows for 3 sides of the utility room. It's like being in a fish tank.
