FOUND the CABLES: Serangoon unit!

No wonder I couldn't find them (for loading pics from camera to computer), it was in Alex's pile of boxes to unpacked. He's actually found them and stored them somewhere.

Decided to show you the 50% unpacked/packed version of the place. To indicate how messy and how lack of storage we have. Will load in another set of pics when we 100% settle in, which is when the pics are up on the walls etc. Enjoy! This is the place we will soon call home. Will take some getting use to but it's sure warming up to us with it's door-to-door convenience!
This is so far the favourite bit of the house to me. I finally get my fully timber dining set from good old SALVATION ARMY OP-SHOP to match my buffet and hutch set from Wollongong. Still struggling with this space as I have not settled on the arrangements, aside from the dining spot.
Our mini-me living room looking out to our balcony. The Balcony now doubles up as storage for the boxes as we unpack. It brings in quite a bit of sun and due to the lacking in 'outdoor' space, my plants have moved indoors!
The balcony, and it's content!
The guest room, with it's own set of storage issues. The plus is, if the tv works, my parents can watch their chinese serials in peace.
Doorway looking into the master bedroom. We now have a his and hers desk as these desks do not fit anywhere else in the house. Lack of storage, too much books, too many STUFF!
Looking into half of girls room. This was the first room we settle in to help the girls find their way in this new place. There's enough for 2 more guests in this room too (if they don't mind the toys and mess!)...toys have moved into bedroom making it also a play area when the other is studying etc.
This is our little blessing. Nooked between the kitchen and living area, a 'study' area bright and spacious. This will be dubbed our 'school room' as it now has a 'reading nook', a creative corner as well as two desks for self study uses. Educational toys are here.
Our kitchen has been halved but it seems pretty useful at the moment. Have to re-figure what is crucial and what is important to store accordingly. The left leads to the laundry....which at this point in time is the most tidiest!
