visual assistant

hello people, its been a month, been pretty stressed out. but its cool
anyway, you know how catalogues always have pictures, its always better to see how the item looks like before actually purchasing them.

and i know i've been talking a lot about properties.
i really think its a good investment.
so i thought why not look at some pictures to like induce me further.
but i also need the money, but no harm scouting places early right? hehe

so, for those who are pretty interested you can look at some property photos
i must say some pictures are really nice.
awesome angle which lets you see what you want to see.
there are also multiple pictures for each property. so you really get to see the place right in the comfort of your home.
this works really well for people not living in that particular area but want to invest in that particular place.

though i must also say that certain pictures are not as professional as others.
while properties in KL are more adequately stocked with pictures other places are not.
a good point to note is that they also show facilities available as well as the furnishings of the place.
which i think is better than just stating it.
i have to say that i would like to have a little brief description of the picture
like a caption so as to know what it is eg. master room bathroom.
because i wouldnt really know.
again, only members are allowed to contact the person in charge,
it would be nice to not have to register to use the facilities on the site.
but i guess if you're really interested you'll register.

i've always been a visual person, so this really helps.
and it is also good to know what to expect before considering and deciding or going to place to see for that matter.
all in all, it was quite useful and interesting.
some properties are really awesome =D
so, i do recommend you visit it.
till next time

Looking for a room?

being a foreigner in a foreign place, especially for one who plans to stay for a long period of time,
or being a student in a foreign country can be quite a daunting journey. for me included.
we always get very excited and everything. preparing, packing and planning.
so, what do we do first before anything else?
i say, find a room.

i stumbled across something interesting - rooms for rent in Singapore. so i thought that it would be useful to some of us who are planning to study in Singapore. having a home, well in this case a room to come back to is pretty important especially for students. we need our own space, you see =D

so, what does the website help with?
the first thing i thought was that the homepage was pretty simple. with a map of Singapore in front. pretty decent.
then at the right hand, there is a side bar with places around Singapore, which i thought was pretty cool, at least they separated it for you. and by clicking the place we are mostly likely to be interested in when it comes to renting a room was definitely important. better than going through the whole list.

the web page provided a lot of information i must say. there is a wide range of rooms to choose from and prices are reasonable. prices i think i would pay if i was studying in Singapore and didnt have a place to stay after my 1st year. and it provides information about public transport that are nearby and facilities available as well. contract details are adequate. however, to contact the specific person from the web page itself for more information requires you be a member of the web page. it might be pretty inconvenient for people who just want to ask a few questions about the place but dont really want to register.
what i thought lacked was pictures, i thought that more pictures would be better as we want to know how the place looks like before committing to anything.
the web page is user-friendly and is easy to explore. its pretty straight forward and makes finding things easy.

overall, i would say, its a useful web page and would definitely benefit students and other people intending to rent a room in Singapore. i'll recommend this website to people, definitely =D
