Washing machine
This is the first washing machine in my life. Back in Singapore, my parents don't own a washing machine, we handwash all our own clothes. Somehow since I stayed in UK, I grew to the luxury of a washing machine, however all the places I stayed previously had common laundry area and I always longed for a washing machine of my own (no need to wait in the common area or afraid that others might take my clothes if I'm not there in time). Finally, the day had arrived, my first even washing machine! I spent sometime today figuring out how to operate the washing machine. Rather easy but because the floor isn't level (or we didn't level the washing machine properly), the machine vibrated and moved around when it's on spin cycle. Hope the downstair neighbour can't hear it! Maybe we need to buy some foot pad for the machine.

Update on 19/4/07 : Checked with downstair neighbour and he assured me that he can't hear a thing. Great!
