finally the fatigue did me in

the last weekend coupled with this hectic week is a little too much for my weak body. last night, by the time i got home from my class, i was so pooped that i konked out the moment i cleanse my face and applied moisturizer. at abt 10pm (according to my phone log), wei called. i spoke gibberish to him, and i have no idea what the conversation was all about. i only remembered a frustrated voice and “aiyah, you go sleep lah!”.

that’s it. was blinded in a black maze until a couple of hours later when i woke from the awkward position and bright lights. managed to stagger around the room, switched the lights and plonked right back into dreamland.

i actually woke this morning, before the alarm rang to wake me. its been a long, long time ever since that happened! but guess what? i went back to sleep, snoozed the alarm when it rang later and didnt wake till 7.45pm.

11 hours. what a pig i was. yet, i was yawning the whole time today and feeling damn hungry cos i didnt take dinner the night before, nothing for breakfast today and lunch was a miserable nonya dumpling.

it’s finally the techmex gathering tonight. havent seen some of the guys since i left the co in 2001. it was nice meeting up, chit chatting, catching up with each other lives and me busy stuffing myself silly with the food cos i was so darn famished! i didnt want to look greedy, but i think i almost fainted from hunger.

when i fished my cammie out for photos.. horrors!! the words, “no memory stick” kept blinking at me and gosh! i was super uber upset can?! all this anticipating of seeing them and no pictures! was so angry with myself that i left the card on the table during my last download. thank god for sally, which fished her cammie out and saved my day. still, i wasnt too pleased abt my forgetfulness. sigh.

no pictures for now, since i’m waiting for sally to send me the pictures. there were loads i wanted to mention, but my mind’s so blank and my eyes are shutting. i gotta go… and i cant bear to think of the even more hectic week ahead.

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.
