my $1k weekend

i had an expensive weekend. and my, the cost of living is really rising huh?! i didn’t think i did anything special.

the major major part was shopping, and eating. and no..i didn’t buy a lot (maybe that’s what i think!).

my buys..
– 2 levi’s jeans (yay to wearing jeans on weekdays!!) and mainly due to the trade in your old jeans for $50 promotion that’s currently on.. and i bought very interesting levi’s jeans (designs from japan) that i heart a lot.
– a gucci leather card holder (a pamper myself item)
– a laptop bag
– a legless chair from muji (it’s was on sale and i have been wanting to buy one for my room for the LONGEST time!)
– lingerie from women’s secret
– 3 pairs of flats from C & K (must be supportive gf right?!)
– seafood(flower crabs, lah-lahs) and grocery shopping in sheng siong supermarket
– lunches, teas and dinners…

and that’s about all my $1 could stretch..

der mentioned that i can really splurge. doesn’t help when he makes me guilty when he started mentioning that some people do not even earn $1k in a month. urgh. then it makes me think that, actually i don’t earn a lot too and that i spent so much money in 2 days is really SCARY.

but, but, it’s 2 days of fun and many more days of food (think of the groceries) to come eh. better than just a pretty gucci bag buy right?!

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.
