Keys Collected!

Finally after a 3 years long wait!! Keys collected on 5th November 2016!

CPF and Bank Account gonna start bleeding like no tomorrow~ Slaves to our new home~ Gotta work harder le~ Gambatte!

Seems so surreal when I stepped into my new place! Cant believe its really happening and this is a place I am gonna live in real soon!~ Happy and very excited to fill this place with beautiful memories, happiness, laughters and lots of warmth! Looking forward to the renovation process and cant wait to move in here soon!

Did a simple Door Opening Ritual when we first went to open the door.

Here's what we did:

1) Mix up a bowl of Rice, Salt, Tie Guan Yin Tea Leaves and Green Beans.

2) Scatter Item (1) at the entrance of the door

3) Knock on door 3 times, and say some auspicious words and open the Door (Dont step in yet)(At least Shout HUAT AH if you dont know what to say or like me I forgotten cause I was to excited to know what to say)

4) Scatter Item (1) into the house.

5) Roll the pineapple into the house from the entrance of the door (Bowling style) while continuously say auspicious words or simply shout HUAT AH! Preferably for it to land in the middle of your living room / house.

6) Step in and continue rolling the pineapple around the round and also scatter Item (1) at all corners of the house (Walk around in clockwise around the house)

7) Pour some water into a container layed with cotton wool / pads, scatter green beans and let it grow!

8) Done with ritual! Now to commence Defect Checks!

* Advice - Try to only do the door opening ritual with your immediate family. Dont invite outsider for this.

* Items can be cleared after 3 days. Pineapple to throw or eaten by self. Do not give to others.

* Greenbeans grows very quickly, within a day it should sprout. If your green beans dont sprout move it to somewhere with more sunglight and put more water. After 1 week, it can be removed.

Examples of auspicious words to say

身体健康

永远快乐

平安发财
