Total darkness

Just got a fright of my life. I headed out from the office, armed the alarm and when i flip the switches of the office lights, a total darkness engulfed me. I had to quickly jump out of the office and shut the glass door before the alarm gets activated, before deciding what i should do. In pitch darkness.

God. I couldn’t even see my hands before me and thank goodness i’m not one that is afraid of darkness. That said, i still had to lock up the wooden doors and latch it. Well, i got a fright because this had never happened before. No matter how late i used to work, the corridor lights were on. So, i literally inched my way to one of the walls, and was madly and frantically feeling the walls around me for the switch. I didn’t manage to find it and had to dig my handphone out for a little light.. Even tho it didn’t help at all. Made an sos call to my colleague, but i found switch after a flight of steps while i was still waiting for her to pick up the phone.

I was so worried that i’ll miss a step and tumble down the stairs and die without anyone realising! I think the building is trying to save on electricity, but that’s not exactly a brilliant idea. Especially when someone is still in the building. I can’t imagine if there’s a fire or something and i can’t find a way to escape.

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.
