My Neighbour

So as you know, I moved house last September (or rather, my other family members did. I merely came back to a different home on my birthday last year lol). So I'm still rather new to this condo and estate. Like if you ask me how to get to my place, I only know one way (which is the way I walk from). No idea about any alternative routes oops:/

Anyway, so I don't know if my neighbours are really low profile or if I'm the non observant one... but I've never really met them before (other than a guy). Ok so I live on the 11th floor and there are 3 units (including mine). Apparently, there's a couple living in the unit adjacent to ours. I've seen the husband. I think his name is Alan. Actually learnt more about him from his car. Lol you know how there are typical singaporeans who are so kaypoh till they like to peek into people's cars/look at the decals on their windscreens to learn more about them. Yea I'm one of these people. Anyway, he has a freaking Harvard car decal displayed over his windscreen. So I'm assuming he's an alumni of that great institution. wtf right. hahah I live next to a Harvard graduate. This is kinda intimidating.. And from a conversation in our lift one day, I figured he worked in the Marina Bay area. probably some investment banker/finance guy. I mean he spends such long hours at work too. And he always comes home looking very stressed:/ His wife seems like a stay-at-home tai tai. We're not too sure though. I mean she has no kids and all. So what's there to do alone at home. I guess she's working from home or has her own thing running somewhere. But I've never met her. UP TILL TODAY. when I peeked through our peephole because we heard footsteps outside. Turns out she was receiving some guests and she was at the door. I thought she looked pretty ordinary. Not decorated or anything lol. Medium length hair tucked away in a low ponytail. Was garbed in a simple white sleeveless top and khaki pants. Spoke normally (I was expecting her to have some sort of a posh accent somehow)So yea. mystery solved. That's the woman living next to us. The woman who has probably overheard all my arguments with my sister in the living room because we are this loud. The woman who had to endure looking at our garish CNY decorations at our door lol. The low profile stay at home/work from home wife of Alan, the Harvard guy.

Then my mum says an Indonesian Chinese couple lives on the other side. From my car stalking abilities, could kinda tell that they were retirees? Lol they have the oldest car in the condo. Like an SB(something). Most of us are alr SJ(something) and SK(something) oh my. But idk if my deduction is accurate la. For all I know, it belongs to a super young guy (who had no choice but to purchase this old car because he had no money and wanted his own car very badly) Anyway, all I know is that there's a bespectacled woman living with them/who likes to spend the bulk of her time in their house. I can look into their kitchen (and into their dining area) through my bathroom window. And vice versa. So I always get super paranoid when I'm in my bathroom minding to my business when I suddenly find the window slightly open wtf. You know there are times when I look out and catch glimpses of said lady with specs. omg. hahah! Anyway, I think her view is obstructed la. I think. But yea. I've never met the couple before. This lady's probably their daughter or something. Shouldn't be the maid. She gets to sit around everytime I see her through the window.

My bathroom window's also a very good tool for voyeurs (like my sister) to be a kaypoh. Abit ironic right. The voyeur stands from a bathroom window to look at others. Instead of others looking into the bathroom window at her. So she's witnessed a couple from the 12th floor fight. An angmoh-chinese couple on the 10th floor cook (actually many times). What to do? All my neighbours so low profile one. I've never really spoken to anyone here except for Alan. And the occasional Japanese housewife with her adorable kid in the lift.
