my WINNING toto ticket
everyone knows the toto angbao draw was last friday. and that there were 9 grand winners.
like what most company does, my colleagues and me pooled our money together to buy toto. here’s our (photocopied) tickets. 9 pieces altogether.
when the results was out..i was still in hog’s breath cafe. i checked a couple of tickets and found it too tedious. gave up and decided that if we did win, someone will call me. no one called me on friday night. sat came and went and no one mentioned abt winning. and i thought it was just a waste of money.
on sunday, while in jasmine house… karen mentioned that her husband told her we won. 4 digits, but not sure. when i got home, i diligently went through every single set of numbers and match it against the winning numbers.. and there!
i found it.
our winning ticket!
and so, we won $90 bucks. the tickets were shared by 6 of us. each of us got $15. less our initial investment of $10, there’s a profit of $5. don’t ask me to treat cos im unemployed and it’s not even enough for a mc donald value meal!
whahaha. better than nothing right?! at least im a winner!

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 didn’t know how to check until i see ur post.
normally i just look thru without ticking which is very confusing.
cherieladieblogs
actually.. i dunno how to check lor! i seldom buy.. then i figured.. i just circle all the numbers that’s the winning on and cross it if there is no win. haha.
perky_butt
if u are using cherie’s method on the orignal ticket, use a pencil and draw lightly hor..

heh, my ex-cols and i won $30 in all, but we ploughed in $60 – so net loss of $30. being the compulsive gamblers that we are, we decided to plough the $30 back into the next draw and ended up losing all.
cherieladieblogs
haha. my colleague suggested that too.. but i was the first to say no, cos i was leaving the co the day i got the $, besides i was fearing that we’ll end up losing everything!
having $15 is better than nothing! haha. im such a sore loser. 😛
