The agony of being a painter

Just in case for those who dont know, i am going to stay with my future in-laws after marriage. I will have a small cosy room which i am totally satisfied as the renovations, furniture and painting for a room is already occupying alot of our time.

Have procrastinate painting the room for weeks, finally we decided to finish this off on Sunday (a day after i got back from the hectic HK trip) so that we can focus on other stuffs. Bought two pails of paint - Lilac White for room and Orchid White for the built-in wardrobe. Didnt really spot the difference btw the two as both looks so white.


Here's the built-in wardrobe outside our room with the ugly false wall. As we can only reach it with the help of the bamboo stick connecting to the paint brush, it took a relatively long time transforming the wall into a totally white flawless one.

Next we paint our love nest from blue to lilac white. While i was busy painting at the other corner, BE wrote this on the wall.... Haha so sweet... took a pic of it to mark down this sweet gesture (censoring his upper body for those under 18) =P

In total, we paint for almost 8 hours equivalent to normal working hours. Luckily future MIL helped us towards the end otherwise we might need to work OT. To prove that we are really conscientious worker, this is how dirty our feet looks like at the end of the day.

It is indeed a tiring chore to paint however the joy which both of us had throughout the process outweighs the agony. Together, we mark the new chapter of our life....
