just retaliate against mama.. which now i'm still quite pissed off abt it.. argh! ! ! she has been reminding (i feel its pressing) me to start renovation before the 7th month... the conversation goes like this:

mama: next fri will be the start of 7th month..

me: mmm.. ya (i choose to keep my ans short so as to avoid conflict. but she went on)

mama: have you ask to knock off the wall? (symbolise the start of renovation)

me: not yet. (again, short ans given)

mama: if unable to knock off the wall before next fri, you have to wait till a month later.

me: (i'm already lun~ing). No. i will still proceed even its already the 7th month. why should i waste another 30 days waiting?? aren't you're the one saying you're not supersitious? and don't tell me what other people's say.. (deep down, i was thinking, if its really so bad, it would have happen to everyone who started their renovation in this "unlucky" month. not only 1 or 2 cases. and worse still, by right, nobody should not dare to do reno works in that particular month)

mama: i'm not supertious (trying to defending herself)..

me: (choose to be quiet. if not, there will be a heated agrument).

FGS! i would also want to start my reno soon. i do not want to leave everything to the last min. could already foresee how busy i would be with house moving & the tiny gritty details on the wedding..
but, if some things have yet to be settled, no point rushing into to start the reno works..

Really sick of those old wives tales.
