About Cherie

All alone on a Saturday night.

press-on-persistenceI haven’t been all alone for a while and it feels strange to be so. Can’t quite remember the days where I didn’t have a kid or anyone around me at night. I think the last time might have been the night where I was all alone in a hotel, in Melbourne.

It’s been a tiring week, but there are more tiring weeks ahead. I have been on course all week, and I have an exam to take tomorrow. Am going to mug real hard for it tonight…because I NEED have to pass.

There has been just too much going on these couple of days and I am dead beat. I slept 3 hours last night, and I think tonight isn’t going to be any better. The husb is flying off early tomorrow morning for a week. I can’t send him off so he is staying with my mother-in-law tonight. I left the kids with my mum to steal in a couple of hours to mug for my exam.

The upcoming weeks is just gonna be tough because I have many weeks of solo parenting ahead. My mum and brother is going on a holiday without me, and the husband will report for reservist right after his overseas stint, so it’s just gonna be me, me, and ME. And the two kids.

I’m hoping I’ll survive all the madness amidst my work, and I can’t wait for that rainbow to appear when Christmas is here. For now, I just have to press on.

Hi there! Thanks for popping by. I'm Cherie, a ftwm (full-time working mum) to 3 lovely kids (2 boys & a princess) and my motto in life is to BE HAPPY. Sure, life isn't all that smooth but it's the mentality that counts, no? This blog documents my life. Or rather, snippets of my life that has passed me by. I love capturing life memories in the blog and being able to read back and laugh at myself (or anyone). I love to eat (A LOT), travel and paint my own nails so the blog is mostly about that. Is that considered lifestyle? Of cos, the family is also very much an integral part of me so there would be loads of memories about the husband and my kids - Jerry (9yo), Jerome (7yo) and Leia (2.5yo) and everyone else that's close to me. I like documenting the kids' milestones, their growing up years, their achievements (and sometimes, mine), and my struggles and battles with motherhood. It sure ain't easy. I love seeking out good food and travelling, is trigger-happy, love new gadgets, love exploring new places and strives to live life to the fullest. I aspire to travel the world as much as I can, to soak in the different sights across the various continents and visit all the Disneylands in the world (almost there!). Have fun reading and do drop me a comment to say hi! Love, Cherie Lim Find me on Instagram.
