Took me 3 days to finally get the new apartment 'up & running'...I officially qualified myself to be a certified maid (cleanse every single corner of the apartment); handy-woman (drill & install curtain bars) & 'carpenter' (assembled IKEA beds, tables & chairs).
Got a few cuts & bruises, made some measurement mistakes & bought the wrong stuff (which are not expensive, luckily) but also learn a lot. If there will ever be next time, I'll definitely 'sub-contract' the house moving task out. The feeling of driving back in the middle of the night (to old house while the new place cleaning is in progress) on a freakingly quiet street & feeling my aching arms is not so good.
New place is good now except...there's no Internet (yet). It might take 2 weeks for Internet service to be available upon deciding which Internet service to take up, which I haven't made the desicion yet...Hopefully something will work out, else, my posting rate will just reduced...
After all the hard work, I reward myself with some sushi take away. Not much variety in the sushi take away shop but surprisingly, it tastes good, even better than chain shushi restaurants in Penang. Pricy though. A set of various sushi like this costs DKK150!
Some of my colleagues have visited my new place & they have 1 common comment: you need a couch! So...maybe I shall give in to their comments and buy a couch (hopefully by this week) & fill up the currently rather empty living room. Then again, what's the use of couch if I don't have a TV set right? I'm really in dilemma, not sure if I should invest in couch + coffee table + floor mat + TV (well, one leads to another) considering this might be only a 2years stay...sigh

I understand your delimna! I am trying to decide if I want a new TV stand or to use an old one from a friend. My parents are giving me their old tv which is really nice. :) Good luck on the decision making!
