very clever!! how an earth did you come up with that one?
It's as simple as that. Buy laminated floor, read the instructions, follow the instructions. Your floor is level you say, so what more tips do you need?
 
The best tip I can offer is to measure the width of the room and divide by the width of an individual board so that you can work out how wide the very last strip would be. Potentially it could be a few cm which means cutting a strip to fit would be very difficult. In these circumstances, the thing to do it trim the very first board that you lay so that the final strip becomes wider. Eg last strip would be 4cm, so take 10cm of the first row that you lay so that the last strip becomes 14cm.

Hope that makes sense!

Preparation is the key really and always check that you're cutting the right end when you get to the end of a row.
