stretching at my desk.

i am still in the office at this grand hour. just cleared a whole lot of emails and work since the day in the office was spent pretty much on packing. we packed cartons but there are still quite a fair bit to go, so it’s continuation tomorrow.

yesterday, by a random occasion, i found out that my colleague was my friend’s wife. OMG!

it started when i was putting some premiums into this box for other department colleagues that’s located at her desk and i was telling everyone that it’s like the magic box – for things that are good and new, but yet you need to clear (read: old premiums).

she was laughing at my term “magic box” when she asked if i knew “xiaoqiang”. and no, it’s not the roach we are talking about. and i went ya ya! and from there, its just spiralled. xiaoqiang was my poly mate and her husband was also my poly mate. gawd.

and she asked if i was k.f.c previously. wah! although i’m not, but im shocked she knew my background and she even mentioned this ‘scb’ nickname of mine. (no, i’m not telling the nickname!)

i am utterly embarrassed. i didn’t think 10 years after i graduated, someone would call me that! and ya, she heard stories about me..

and to think i was just browsing her husband friendster a couple of months ago and exclaiming to myself.. “wah, douglas’ married and his wife is quite pretty!!”

duhz. his wife has been sitting 3 rows down from me for the last 8 months (i pass her almost every other day to get to the color printer). what a small small world.

errrrrmmm… it is so scary?!

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.
