Flashback Friday #1 – My visit to Illinois from many moons ago (2007!)
taking a break from the sydney trip, i’m gonna launch into another country US state that i visited but never got round to blogging about. Also, i think i’m gonna make it a point to do a #flashbackfriday post every friday because i do have a lot of outdated stuff that i want to talk about! So yup. Illinois. For the longest time, i kept telling people i went to chicago, but the truth is… i landed in Chicago O’Hare International Airport and zipped out of the place in under an hour. i only saw the chicago airport and some streets. nothing else. I spent the most of my time…

the lion roars!
This morning, while the husband is waking jerry up for school, the little kiddo refuses to get out of bed. and in a split second, he decided to be a lion and do a lion roar in an attempt to scare the husband away. hilarious. just where, do kids get these ideas into their heads? the quick-handed husband managed to capture it on video so i loaded it up on youtube. i think this was a “replay” version. hilarious. so, hear my little lion roar! (complete with facial expressions and all). funny not? I hope you like it! Till, i blog again.. Cheers, Cherie If you like what you…

Sydney Wild Life Zoo @ Sydney Darling Harbour
if you are wondering, i’m still at day 4 of my trip and I have 5 more days to blog about….Some times, I get stressed thinking about how I am going to find the time to jot all my memories of my trip down, but small baby steps.. i’ll get there somehow. you guys bear with me alright? So, we headed to the Sydney Wild Life Zoo as the last destination for the day. We were pretty zonked out having visited the Sydney’s Maritime Museum, Sydney Sea Life Aquarium & Madame Tussauds all in the same day. I would’t recommend it doing the way i did because we were pretty…

Madame Tussards Sydney
This post is all about our trip to Madame Tussards Sydney. I know, i said i’ll blog about the Wild Life Zoo next in my earlier post on Sydney’s Sea Life Aquarium, but i totally forgot that we went Madame Tussauds before the zoo. So, i’m just gonna talk about Madam Tussauds first. If you know me, i’m more of a animal, marine life person or adventurous type of person. Thrill-seeking type if you need to label me. or nature-loving. I’l visit zoos, aquariums, do climbs, white-water rafting in a jiffy but museum sorta places, i’ll choose carefully and only do those that interests me. so, Madame Tussauds isn’t really…

jerome turns 8 months.
slightly over a week ago, jerome turned 8 months old. this little bundle of sunshine of mine cheers me up everyday. at 8 months, he has 8 fully grown teeth. i have no clue why my kids’ teeth sprouts so fast! I thought jerry’s progress was fast when he was a baby, but jerome’s progress is so much faster. he stands unassisted now for a couple of seconds before he plonks his fat butt down again. he walks like a champ assisted and can get around the house pretty fast when he crawls or walks about. he’s always wary about falling down so he clutches one hand onto somewhere all…

Viral fever vs Dengue Fever – how to tell the difference?
So, after burning for a week on somewhat very high body temperatures (38+, 39+ degrees), slipping in and out of sleep cycles and losing out a lot on food (i barely ate!) and losing some kilos, i finally rid the fever and came back to work today. still sick, still alive but not really kicking. my throat still hurts big time, i talk with a coarse voice, i spit fresh blood-stained phlegm and swallowing is a real pain. and i also found out this morning, that one of my colleague thought i died…because of this news article that she saw. because i was having non-stop high fever. because i stayed…

i am so darn hot (pun intended). I’m running a viral fever!
my viral fever temperature just recorded its highest in the last 5 days (or is it 6th day now). an hour ago, I recorded like 39.5 degrees celsius. the husband has been icing me with ice and cold packs (and his can of beer) for the past hour and more and I really cannot feel more loved. I just need to know why this stinking fever refused to leave me alone. and the freaking reason that caused me to BURN (luckily not in hell yet). thought I put down some random thoughts in case my brain really gets fried and I can’t think straight. I really…

FOX Little Men, Little Miss Collection
**sponsored post** Have you heard? FOX recently introduced a series of limited edition Mr. Men, Little Miss character tees in their new collection. i know! i should have blogged about this earlier! My bad. I have been so caught up with…life. solo parenting, mid-career switch, house warming, being really really sick the past 5 days are just some of the stuff i am dealing with. i never wish to be so sick ever again. i was running really high temperatures for 5 days and seen 3 docs. the medication from the first 2 doctor didnt help, and the husband eventually sent me to the hospital because the temperature has been…
