Hi Trina !
I'm thinking of ACS(Junior) but most of the condos nearby are very pricey :PPP

Will renting help, if it's too expensive to buy ? I have a friend who rented near ACS Barker, and got his son into the school

that would be my last resort - though i think the rental there wld be just as high !!

Hi all !


which co-ed school (along the Bukit Timah stretch) would you choose ? :?
The reason why i'm asking is cuz i have a girl and a boy and if i do decide to do PV or MOVE HOUSE near a school (haahaA), i may want to kill 2 birds with one stone and send both into the same school..

Andaiz : wow !!! what activities does she do in school ??

if she naps till dinner time, what time does she sleep at night ??

yah, the more you fight, the more they will fight back !!! these little creatures :love:

MMM : new loan - lemme go home and get the contacts will let u know tomorrow

i was told that the rates will be increasing soon - not sure how true that is ..


CSB : it's a new loan. Apologies, i dont know much about re-financing so i cant help - but if it's not in bold in your Letter of Offer/Loan documents, why do you have to pay to re-finance ??
Is it disguised as an \"admin\" fee ??

Trina:

What school are you trying for? Have you check out the statistics for prior years? May be too late to think about moving now if u are going for registration this year.

hi all !!
i'm probably able to get in via 2B (Church affilition) but i'm not within 1 or 2km from the school.
Any views on the probability of getting my child into the school ?
Or sld i buy a unit 1km from the school to up my chances ?
Thanks !

Hi MMM !


awww shucks that's just awful service !!!

I just did one with DBS and it had the lowest rates

exactly


was just posting in another thread that my DD 4 yrs refuses to sleep in the afternoon - and i dont want the helper to \"force\" her to nap ... already she has a \"fear\" of napping ...

sigh

ahh i c

Thanks for the clarification
well done on the investments !

Of course you sld not sell the one you currently live in - otherwise, if the property prices shoot up, u'd be cash rich but nowhere to live !

Good on you for taking profit on your other local property ! I suppose you didnt wanna settle for rental yield ?

just my 2 cents, i think i'd refinance with the current low interest rates and hang on to the cash to \"cash in\" if the prices do come down in Q3.



All the best !

wow ! thanks everyone for sharing their experiences !!

can someone help with my "problem" ?

DD (4Yo) gets back from Nursery at 12noon. She will try to eat and bath but will refuse to sleep - i think this stemmed from last yr when i placed her in childcare and they "forced" her to nap from 1 - 3pm. Apparently, she wld kick up a big fuss (uhhh, now i’m making her sound like a ill behaved kid : ) and not nap - she eventually would lay down on her mattress (in Childcare) when everyone was sleeping.
I’ve since taken her out of CC, and she comes back home every afternoon. She will drink her milk (2 bottles sometimes) and do colouring, cutting, playing in the sitting room quietly but NOT SLEEP !!!
Should i be concerned ? She wld go to bed at abt 9 - 10 plus and sleep till 7 in the mornings - undisrupted so i think she gets a good nights rest.
i’m in two minds about quitting work and staying home to try to get her into a routine.
