never thought of this.
i never thought that i’ll say this, but after the month long anticipation of the africa trip…
i suddenly have no desire to go at all.
it’s like i’ve lost interest, too tired, and suddenly it seems more like a dreary thing than something that i’ll anticipate.
guess it was a prolonged case of anticipation, or that i am too tired with everything that’s going on right now.
there’s just so much to be done. the mind is racing but the body is in a trance. argh. i just want to push everything away, curl up in bed and wish no one would bother me for a while.
there’s just too much going on right now and i really really wish there wasn’t any additional stress.
//
on a side note.. i discovered that i think best in the following situations:
– in the shower
– during a jog
– when i drive (alone)
//
had dinner with the bestie yesterday and passed her pictures of the hen’s night and the wedding day. had a short dinner while the pictures were being transferred from my netbook. quick update on the recent happenings, and i really do missed dinners like such. we rounded the night with bad traffic in novena square’s car park and i sped the night away to get to goodwood for some moon cake. we were the last 2 customers and PHEW!
was really thankful that i managed to get the moon cakes for der’s parents and promptly delivered it over last night.

do you feel at times that there are too many roles in life to play? and being everything at the same time is such a tedious process?
at the moment, my shoes seemed way too big for me to fill them in.

ok. i.am.grouchy.
i wish i could just get out of my seat for a run.

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.

I woke up this morning feeling the same way. Suddenly I lost interest in the trip. Itineraries not planned, hotel not booked, bags not packed. We’re supposed to leave on this friday! Sighhhh..and assignments not completed. :/

*nods nods*
me too! i have so much work, i dont have the time to pack. at the same time, i’m trying to be a good girlfriend, daughter, niece, friend and worker all the same time.
also, because i’ll be away and the boy will be away, i am busy going through the bridal mags that i bought so that the boy can take a look at them when he comes back.
amidst of all that, i am also trying to find some time for myself.. which at this moment is zilch.
am feeling so spent, and i wish i could just throw the entire trip into the bin and slow my pace down. only that it isnt anywhere near possible.
vacations. are they meant to stress or relieve stress?
my aunt has been asking me loads of questions – visa, weather, itinearary, what to bring blah blah blah. i am driven to the point of almost ‘screaming’.
p.s. screening this comment.

take things slowly, and try doing one small step at a time. you’ll manage it somehow!
breathe!

do you feel at times that there are too many roles in life to play?
Yes, I do have lots of role to play in life. and worst thing is in my work when I have to play different role to
1) My customers.
2) My dealers.
3) My distributor.
4) Debt collector.
5) As a subordinate.
6) Too many to list.
cherieladieblogs

– boyfriend
– future husband to be
– future son in law
– son
– ‘father’ to jody
and the list goes on.. haha.

Ya loh… But those are ok. Its my job that’s taxing.
Imagine you have so many customers from various verticals (defense, national security, oil&gas, medical, automotive, aviation, etc) and each time you visit the customer, you need to know what exactly they are doing, their user environment and usage patterns etc.
It’s a C.H.O.R.E. and it’s H.E.C.T.I.C.
