Move or stay?
It has been almost 7 years since I shifted to livejournal from blogspot. I have had thoughts of moving lately, because all my friends seemed to have migrated and i wanted to do more with the blog. Especially now that my paid account is expiring in 2 weeks.
Should I stay or move elsewhere? Like wordpress or something?

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.

question is, what do you want to do with the blog?
i still cross post to livejournal (im using wordpress on a hosted server) because i find it more convenient for some of my friends to read! : D
anwyay, wordpress itself (i.e. cherieladie.wordpress.com) will require you to pay if you want to link it to your own url, and also makes u pay if you want to customize it. Everything can turn out to be more than a LJ subscription I think? Like.. Domain $20, link to domain $15, pay to customize another $15 etc etc, So while wordpress is awesome, i’d advise you to think about the costs (unless you dont mind!) : D
And i’ll still read anyway! :3

i wanted to add google ads to the blog, but livejournal doesn’t allow it. the template also don’t quite allow you to do advertisements of most sorts anyway.
since i spend so much time blogging, i was thinking of turning it into some sort of passive income for the fun of it. or maybe i should stay around and do up a word press and cross-post everything.
