creeped by creepy

this morning, i probably took the longest time to bathe in the morning before i head out for work. i started bathing and was stunned when there was a relatively huge lizard crawling on my ceiling, looking like it’s gonna drop any time!

i am not usually afraid of creepy crawlers of such, but i remembered an incident when i was in primary 6. it was before dawn and i was bathing when the lizard fell onto my head (i JUMPED!), it dropped onto my shoulders (I BRUSHED it off), and it slid down my body and fell with a splat on my feet. it sent a tingling chill of yuckness (eeks, that slimy feel with water and soap on my body) into my spine and i still remember the feeling till today.

anyway, this morning, it stared at me with its huge beady eyes, and it actually circled my entire toilet perimeter 5 times! i had to bathe with my eyes on it the entire time, and turning my body to face it wherever it moves. i guess i feel extra vulnerable because i am naked.

when i was bending over the basin to wash my face, i jumped when i opened my eyes because the lizard was NO WHERE to be seen! i frantically scanned the toilet walls and saw it’s head peeking out from a pipe. i just had to quickly get out the moment i was done.

i ended up being late, having a bad hair day (didn’t blow my hair) by leaving the house with my hair wet, and with no makeup because i was already late and shufen was waiting downstairs to give me a ride to the office.

=(

yeah. i’m totally creeped. and i feel so silly because im usually so gungho about them.

and oh, i also feel like screaming at the bloodless lizard and tell it to stop peeping at me bathe!

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.
