I just moved into my new house today. They are newly-built apartment blocks in Buangkok. Throughout last year's December holidays, I had been visiting my new house again and again to help my father inspect the house and check what the workers were doing at that time and whatever message he wanted me to pass to the contractor, I would tell him. Doing those was quite boring. But for the sake of moving into a more comfortable house, I was doing it.

Transportations are very convenient, the MRT station is right beside my block, except for taxis, but my family and I would not be taking any taxi since the price had gone up. But it takes longer time for my brother and me to go to our schools, as they are further away. This means that I have to wake up even earlier than before. My own room's furniture is moved in from my old house because they are only "one-year-old". Almost everything else in the house is new.

Actually, the area of my new house is smaller than my old house. It is 14 square meters smaller, the living room is only half of the old living room. But it is all right as long as my family and I are happy and comfortable. It was quite a tiring day on the day we were moving in, all those packing made us really hungry. So we had a nice dinner of steamboat after that, we enjoyed that moment together as a family to mark the starting of house-warming.
