beary-eyed
4th morning into the work week and i was late for 3. despite having taken a cab to work for 2 mornings, my attempt to reach the office earlier didnt not succeed. even warnings from the dc on monday morning couldnt get me to be motivated. i really tried you know? let’s just say im not a morning person.
anyone wondering who my hot date was last nite? haha.. it’s none other than my beloved unpolished_gem! she wanted to return me the mobile phone she borrowed on her trip to taipei last week. and she got me this cute little my melody scotch tape.. to add to my huge collection of cartoon tapes. hee.. *jumps with joy*
dinner at manhattan’s was a little nauseating for us.. started the dinner with garlic lemon mussels, which was nice and tasty. unpolished_gem & me love the sauce to bits, dipping everything we could into it.
then came the platter. urgh. the more we ate, the more yucky it got. the prawns has got this soury taste from the sauce and it doesnt complement my taste buds. i had to flush it down with loads of water throughout the mail, oops, male.. urgh! MEAL! [as you can see, my brain is shutting down and my fingers cannot coordinate well..]
it came to a point that we couldnt stand the smell of the platter and cant wait to get out of the restaurant! strolled around, and i bought myself a cute 2006 planner! i know its still early, but its hard getting the size that i want, the color and at a reasonable price! 🙂
popped by mac and bought drinks for a chat. was a little upset cos the my melody book buddy at mac is SOLD OUT!!! *sobs* super duper upsetting!! anyone wanna trade a my melody one for a hello kitty one? 🙁 and to think i wanted to get vanessa one too.. sigh
okie dookie. im feeling more awake now. never fails to brighten me to blog.. tee hee hee.. *whistles to myself*

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.

Popping By…
Just to say that I had been HERE….
Good to see that your entries are starting to carry a pint of happiness and joy…
Keep it up that way, girl…
As for you being late… haha… I think ever since I started peeping by… Was there an entry of you being exceptional early… without taking cab? Live so near and yet so late… I think… you better move to Sembawang… at least cut short your travelling time…
And btw… aint Executives meant to be rich pple…? Invest in a car my friend…
Stay happy… and Happy Weekend…

Re: Popping By…
1. issit a chore for you to leave your name behind or log in before u comment?
2. abt the exceptionally early, yes. there WAS. u didnt read properly. in the near 1.5years here, i was early before and im SURE i blogged abt it. and yes. without taking a cab. (in case u duno, im quite thrifty and hardly splurge on cab. the recent cos i was warned at work.)
3. dun be naive that executives are rich people. it’s just a tag. doesnt mean anything. there are poor executives as well, and i am one of them. and i CANNOT afford a car. oh, by the way.. does that mean all managers MUST own a car cos they are richer than executives?!
