lau chek’s (granduncle) birthday in JB..

18th dec, sunday, 10.30am

we took the train in from tanjong pagar even tho my house is only 15 mins drive from the causeway. the reason? to beat the queues at the customs cos there was one year where i had to wait 1.5 hrs only to have moved only 20 metres max and still 80 metres away from the custom officer when the luncheon already started.. and my retired uncle had to call his ex-colleague to do him a favor by coming out all the way, and fetching me right to a closed custom line (very much like a criminal), so that i can beat the queues, get my passport stamped and enter the m-land.

since then, my mum reckon cab fares to tanjong pagar + train tickets in JB is much much worth the trouble than having me queue like a statue at the customs.


omg! omg! check out the jams of the cars trying to get back into singapore at 11+ in the morning! the jam wasnt any better when i headed back to sing in the evening.



the journey back on foot…

i am so So so much faster than the cars/buses/motorbikes can? sometimes, having wheels isnt too much a good thing eh? hee.

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.
