the horrendous morning
this morning, despite leaving the house early.. i almost didnt manage to get to work. because when i was at the train station.. there wasn’t any train available for me to board for 15mins. there were announcement that sounded unsure, and the control station guy just announced, “attention passengers, there will be no empty trains approaching. please board the next oncoming train.”
well.. the oncoming empty train came.. and the doors didnt open. the control station went again, “the train on platform B is not in service. the train is faulty. please wait for the next train. thank you.”
well.. the next train took a really long time to come and by then, i am sweating like mad. and so, the train came and it was packed to the entrance! not a single person could board the train. so it was a disaster.
after 15 mins, it was too hot and stuffy for me and i decided that i needed to get out. the number of people on the platform just keep piling… the entire platform B was packed to the brim and there are still tonnes of people coming up from the escalator.
i eventually decided that i needed to get out of the train station and take a cab to work.. thankfully agnes was texting me and telling me joanne is giving her a ride to the office. out of desperation (the cab queues were really long!), i asked agnes if it is ok for me to hitch a ride too!
and there, that was how i got to the office, and on time too. 🙂 so blessed to have nice colleagues.
Cherie
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.
