Walk-In-Selection

Supposingly today is the day for our turn to select for the flats for the latest WIS but last night when I went to check for the availability of the flats we like, just as I expected, those we like have all been selected. Sigh!

The moment we got our queue no, we know the chances of selecting our ideal flat is very very slow. Why? Because our queue no is 756!! Why? Because people started queueing up 2 days before and the news of the WIS was only announced on the actual day which is last Fri.

Last Fri, while I was going to work, I saw the HDB advertisement in the train station stating that the WIS is starting on that day. That was 8am. Immediately, I told jackson and he went down to HDB hub to take the queue number. He managed to get the number around 8.40am and our queue number is already 756! WT*&%#@??!! He already reached there so early and yet our number is so far.

How do those people get to know about the news? They have insider info? In the newspaper article, those people told the journalist that they saw the news in the HDB website. WT*&%#@??!! I only gotten the email alert from HDB on that actual day 6am, how is it possible that they saw the news on the webbie??!!

So demoralising...wasted our $10 bucks.... :(
