Quake + upsetting news..

heard about the quake last night and it got my aunt (the one in seattle) all jittery about it. my mum, she’s on a cruise somewhere out in the sea, heading towards melacca area and im not sure if she’s fine since i couldnt get her on her mobile (no network) and she hasnt called me as yet.

this afternoon, the same aunt told me abt my grandpa being admitted into hospital in Kluang. it made my view of the office murky when i heard it. its sounds quite bad, and it’s supposed to be some heart related problem. my grandpa was in hospital alone and no one was with him and he had to take a cab there himself with swollen legs. knowing that he always downplay his illness, it made me even more worried.

dwelling on the matter only made things worst. i lost the mood to work and had the sudden urge of dumping everything im doing, take half a day’s leave and head home for my passport and head to grandpa’s home. the only thing that held me back was..i dun have a car to drive UP! and its too inaccessible via public transport.. and i’m like an ant on a hot pan.. getting frantic with my wild imagination.

i had to make a call to talk to my aunt in KL to find out more details and make sure that someone is there looking out for grandpa, and it was only then that i felt a little better.

thanks to all those that talked to me, comforted me and kept my imagination at bay.
appreciate it loads. im feeling much much at ease now. grandpa’s gonna see a specialist doctor in JB tomorrow.. so im praying that nothing major will happen till he sees the doc tomorrow. *keeping my fingers crossed*

i went for my last yoga class tonight, and no, im have no intention to continue into the intermediate level as yet. its too far and inconvenient for me to take it in toa payoh.. i’ll take it again somewhere near my house when i get my jap straight first. now, its hard juggling both on consecutive days and its really really tiring.

dinner was just a simple bread. supposed to be 2, but i donated one of it to my brother. i remember having something in mind to blog about, but as i was msning with my friends.. and updating my brother abt my grandpa, i forgot what i wanted to blog about initially. argh. guess im simply too tired.

it’s time to visit the sandman now. retiring to my cool little room. nite nite.

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.
