Plaster Ceiling Cost and Calculation

Orang ade plaster ceiling....
Kite pon sebok nak berplaster ceiling....
Padahal ongkos nye tak ade pon....
Kenape nak berplaster ceiling?
Konon nye kalau pakai downlight, environment rumah lagi nampak cantik...KONON....
hahaha.....

Cost untuk plaster ceiling ni biasenya akan dikira per sqft...
Untuk yang PLAIN plaster ceiling (meaning bukan yang ade box-box bagai tu, L-box etc etc)...
Paling mahal contractor quote I is rm7 and paling murah is rm3.50...
Please bear in mind harga untuk DESIGNED plaster ceiling lain ye..as I mentioned earlier....

So macam mana nak kira cost untuk plaster ceiling?
Sonang yo.....
Kira la luas kawasan ceiling (in sqft) yang hangpa nak buat plaster ceiling tu...
And then times la dengan harga yang contractor tu quote...

In my case...
Luas kawasan ceiling yang I nak buat plaster ceiling tu is 720sqft...
Contractor tu quote rm3.50 per sqft....
720 sqft x rm3.50 = RM2520....
So total cost of my plaser ceiling is RM2520...murah tak...hehehehehe

Oh ya, wiring and painting kire cost lain ye....
Because of we DIY wiring and painting....
Jadi, I cant advise on the wiring and painting cost here...

 Buat kerangka besi dulu....
Nampak macam senang....
Tapi the tricky part is the measurement tang mana yang hang nak paku kerangka tu yang pakar sahaja tau buat....

Drill la kepingan-kepingan papan ceiling pada kerangka tadi....
Ini belum di plaster lagi...

Satu Kereta

Memiliki lebih dari satu kereta...
Keperluan atau kehendak?

I...or should I say we (me n hubby) only have one car....
We do afford another car but with tight budget la....
Kene cut off nak makan mewah or nak g jalan2 or nk beli baju baru...
So better dont commit something that can make us suffer kan...

Tak susah ke ada satu kereta je?
Pergi keje macam mana?
If one of us ade hal, macam mana?

Since our working place satu hala...so nope...tak susah...
In fact, we are very comfortable sebab at least we do have time to spend together before reaching office and after work...
Time tu la nk update each others punye story...
I will send my husband to work and after that heading to my office....
From home, it took us about 40 minutes plus sending Aisyah to babysitter's house...
Luckily, our route tu tak jammed...

In case of emergency and one of us need to use the car, or one of us is having unusual schedule for that day, we will borrow my father's car...
Another lucky instant...
So, I (we) think we've made a right decision not to have another car yet...

That is my scenario...
But for some of us...
It is necessary to have at least 2 cars...

There are so many reason and basis why they have to have 2 cars...
For example, they are taking different route to the office....
Their working hours are different...might be because of they are working on shift...
One of them need to travel around frequently....etc etc etc

But seriously...do we need more than one car?
If we can commute using public transport...
If we can tolerate our schedule...
If we have same route to work...

Committing ourselves into another debt is really not a wise resolution...
Because the car values will drop as soon as it is purchased...
Yet, another monthly installment with devastated interest to pay...
Unless you have a fortune of money to splurge on...

Thus, lets rethink of having more than one car when we should not...

Caesar VS Normal

Tak kesah la bersalin normal or Caesar kan....
Asalkan mommy and baby selamat...

TAPI...
Ade jugak manusia-manusia zaman sekarang ni yang tertutup minda nya...

Tak lama jek lagi I dah nk di operate for the second time...
Bila perut dah besar ni...
Among the most popular question that people will ask...
Bila due? Normal ke Caesar?

Bila dijawab jek I will go for Caesar...
As usual, there will be next question, WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY go for Caesar...
To my surprise, when I explained, most of makcik2 and nenek2 kat kampung can understand without ade annoying response or another annoying question....
In fact, their reply was very supportive...

Unfortunately, manusia2 yang at my age pulak yang memberi response and comment yang sangat irritating and bothersome...
"Kenapa tak nak try normal?"
As I said, I memang nak merasa bersalin secara normal...in fact, bukan I tak pernah rasa sakit nak beranak...
During my first child, I was suffered to death nak beranak....
That eventually I have no choice other than Caesar....
So, dont tell me that I should try for normal delivery and experience myself the pain of contraction!!!
Because I've gone thru the strain!!!

Good for you that both of your deliveries are normal...
You should be more thankful for that...
But that doesnt mean you have the right to denounce or critic orang yang Caesarian ni...
And please bear in mind that we, who go for Caesar also SAKIT okke!!!
Bukan tak sakit...
So, tak yah nk buat expression muka mintak penumbuk when I said I will still opt for Caesar for 2nd child...
