Hello Rumble Fumble ❤

Don't worry.
Only I can bully you from now on.

(And mostly Bro Mo)

I will love you so so much you won't even believe it. 
Actually, I already do.

 You fell asleep on Uncle Sean's hand.

 Car ride home, with your biggest fan, Auntie Megan.

 Bro Mo's attempt to claim the new bed.

I can't wait to watch you grow up baby.

Xoxo,
Mummy Sher

How to Live AGAIN in Malaysia

There's thing that I am just not used to anymore.
Cut me some slack, I'm still a real Malaysian, I just haven't been practicing.

First, I kept forgetting that we always drive on the other side, and driver seat is on the right.
I keep trying to get into the driver seat and my mum will look at me like,

"so, you driving hon?"

It's actually pretty dangerous, as I would actually look out on the wrong side when I'm trying to cross the road. Good thing we don't cross the road any way like when we are in Canada, so I'm actually extra careful anyway.
One thing I do remember this time, is how to cross the road. Last trip, which is like 2 years ago, I was freaking out on the street of Taiwan outside my hotel. I felt absolutely defeated, to the street. I lost the ability to cross the Asian street. So I'm real proud that this time, I kept my survival skills.

You also always, and I mean ALWAYS, have to bring napkins or tissue paper of some kind with you wherever you go. They are not free nor are they available everywhere. If you don't have tissue paper with you, more often than normal, you have to ask someone for it. If you live here, you usually remember to bring some with you. Like mum, she always have at least 2 pack with her. Since we are not the most sweat-less people... Whenever it's almost the end of meal time, you see us looking for my mum for tissue paper. It's just how it works.
Sometimes, washroom don't even have toilet paper and you are just stuck there. Trust me, it's not rare at all that washroom here does not provide tissue paper. We don't really trust people here, unfortunately.

"Don't look presentable"

That is what my mum has been telling me these days. We need to not catch any attention whatsoever.
It's not that easy mum, with the genes you gave me, I can't hide these exploding beauty... of yours. *mega hairflip*
We are not in the safest country, not even close to a safer surroundings, so you just always have to be cautious everywhere you go. You absolutely shouldn't look tourist, that's the deal.
You have no idea how many creepy stares I've gotten when I first arrived with my sweater.
It makes you wonder what are they planning in their evil minds.

I guess staying focused and cautious is always very important when you are outside anyway.
In a country that has a pretty high snatching and pick-pocketing rate, precaution has to be taken.
Bags always within sight and never leave you, don't bring important documents with you, don't take drinks from stranger, etc etc.

It might sound scary, but these are just something I noticed that I have to suddenly be really careful about, just to survive and live.

xoxo,
Sher

Saving Tips

WARNINGS!
You know boxing day is just around the corner and some website/places already have their boxing sale on and it's just not safe.
It's really the best time to review some saving tips to fight off those situations where you THOUGHT you have to. so that you will save yourself and save burning a hole in your pocket.

you know you walk into that store, type in that website and you're like
"I'm just gonna look, I don't need anything" 

then you saw that dress or that shoes and you're like
"OMG I was looking for that for EVER now and IT IS ON SALEEEE!!" 
 or
"OMG 75% off?! this is crazy!!"

then the next thing is you realize you are paying for it. same thing happens in this store, that store that online store, etc etc.

tomorrow when you wake up you are happy but when you go through your stuff you're like
"shit why did i buy this?!"

then when you check your account and you're like
"Foosh...I'm so screwed, my 5 months savings gone!"

worst is when you really saw this one thing you ACTUALLY want/need 2 days later and you realize you are out of "the paper". you will not be happy. trust me. I know.
don't do that. I warned ya.

Alright. These used to work on me, hopefully it still does.

Number ONE => Go away - first.
Go walk around! or surf around. Leave that product for a couple of hours. you have other stores that you want to go anyway so go there first. If online, go look at other products first.
If you really love it, you will remember to go back to get it, if you don't really love it that much, then you don't need to waste money on it EVEN THOUGH IT'S CHEAP!If you only remembered it when you get home, then you don't love it, trust me, tomorrow you will thank yourself. If you really love it that much, buying it tomorrow when the sales is over, you will still feel worth it. If you feel like the original price don't worth it then it doesn't worth even the discount price. REMEMBER THAT. In fact,  sometimes,  you just need a little time to wake up from that moment where power of discount strike you. when you leave the product for a couple of hours or simply couple of minutes, when you come back and look at it, you will realize you don't really like it. It's not as perfect as when you first saw it. Sometimes, it really is all it takes. So, walk away first.

Number TWO => Take your time to leave the house!
Don't go the earliest, don't go when nobody is buying. Go when everybody is crowding. Human are impatience and this is where it works, when you see the line. This is the moment when you realize if you really love the stuff.
"Do I love it that much that it worth me waiting in that crazy ass line over there? It might take all the time I could use to shop at my favourite store over there..."

Then you know this stuff in my hand, is not that amazing anymore. Also the crowd might really make you feel really uncomfortable that you just want to leave ASAP that you won't even bother go through the entire store and find more things that you "want". You just want to go instead of staying there being part of a can tuna. PLUS you don't have to wake up early. Win-win right?

Number THREE => Go OUT!
This is for online shoppers(me). if you are home, you will just go to those websites with the big SALE word on their homepage and then you're screwed. So just go out, go to friend's house, go to party, go out for meal, even the mall actually. Splurge on meal, go ahead, don't worry, no matter what, it won't be more than what you will spend if you're on the site. Girls, I know you, you are more wise on spending on eating, you won't buy it if it's too expensive. It's  just not the same attitude when it comes to clothes or accessories. Plus, how much can you eat really? Don't stay home, don't say you'll clean your room, or you'll do assignment, or you'll clean the house. Don't lie to yourself. You won't and you know that.
Why I say going to the mall is okay? Well, if you are a online shopper like me, you probably don't like the crowd so you won't enjoy it anyway so, you really won't wanna buy anything cause you can't stand the craziness.

Number FOUR => Don't bring your cards.
Keep it at home. Cards have those power where it gives you the illusion that you're not spending your money right now so it's okay and you get carried away so easily, before you even realized it. Use only cash, and when you're out of it, you're out, and you HAVE to stop. Much more control in how much you're spending too cause you know EXACTLY how much you spend the day. It really helps when you're shopping too. Cause you clearly SEE how much you have and you know if you buy "this" your money is gone so you have to buy only the ones you need. It's basically your budget. No wasting. yay. No mistake. No accidents.
The rule is not to bring it, just leave them at home. Don't say I'm just gonna leave them in my wallet because that is NOT what you gonna do. After all your cash is gone, you will say 
"just using my card on this ONE, just one."

Yea right. More like each and every one after that. Ya. I know you well.

Number FIVE => The hardest way apparently, get a saving freak boyfriend.
This work like a charm to me. Pecan is a saving freak. He will get mad at me if I spend too much so it's pretty scary. And that pressure there, works better than any thing. So I keep him around when I try to shop and bring him to the mall with me. His death glare really helps. Or sometimes he just bullshit about how ugly that shirt looks and I'll wake up from power of discounts. Even though sometimes that shirt is really not that ugly, why would you buy something that your boyfie think it's ugly right? You won't have time to think about his evil plan of saving money so just bring him with you. 
Hardest part is probably to find a guy like that. That I can't help. I'm no love expert. Sorry. It wasn't my choice neither. sigh. (Love ya, Pecan!)

These are just for the people who wants to save but just HAVE to go try looking for something.
sign of you being these people : 
  1. You tell yourself "I'm just joining the crowd just going around, I'm not gonna buy anything."
  2. You actually planned to go to the mall early with your girls but you tell them you won't buy anything.
  3. You go to the websites everyday waiting for the sale to start even though "I am just looking".
  4. You buy a bunch of stuff you don't use numerous boxing day before.
  5. You JUST splurged on Black Friday.
  6. You JUST splurged on Cyber Monday.
  7. You already know who you are.
Anyway, these are just the stuff that works for me and my reminder before THE DAY comes. If you are extreme shopaholic (I'm probably like a medium?) maybe it won't work too. Don't blame it on me if your wallet still burn a hole.

Alright, xoxo, wish us girls luck. Save our wallet!

youtube life

Is it just me or everybody does that?

I don't usually subscribe to people on Youtube. I used to try not to.
Until I realize I can't remember them all then I start to subscribe.
Anyway.
My problem is I don't subscribe to them because I love them, weird much?
I just like the excitement of searching them up and when it finish loading I can know if they uploaded a new video.
So like, if they have a new video it's like a little surprise to myself and if they don't I'll be really sad and disappointed.
Am I weird? lol

Lately, I've been subscribing to workout channels and people and loving them.
I am not a fan of (and I mean absolutely HATE) boring same old workout routine. I just stop working out after awhile doing the same thing over and over again, since I'm bored the hell out of it.
I don't know how other people do it. I mean, how do you not get bored seeing the same scene over and over again after looking at them for months (or even years) ever since you start running there at the same spot(that is specifically for my dad lol)? even gym! It just doesn't work for me.
In fact, it is NOT good, I repeat, NOT GOOD, to repeat the same workout routine for too long(they say more than a month or two), according to my research.You have to switch up your workout once in a while so that your body is not used to the same thing and the efficiency will decrease.
You know, just like some medicine, your body develop resistance to it and you have to consume more.
Oh and that's one of the reason why I absolutely hate medicines(the other reason is just because they taste bad lol).
So I love these workout channels cause they actually give me a different workout everyday so I can keep them until they ran out of ideas, yay!
Well, obviously I repeat the ones I like until I'm bored of them and then I go for a new search. They have hundreds of videos I don't have to worry about it.
Absolutely loving it!!

Bye.

hello abs in.....I'm too pussy to commit a date but I'll just say... 3 months or less lol

Everything gone!

I did not purposely cleaned out everything.
It was an accident and everything was gone.
I felt a little, just a little, sad.
Well, I did made up my mind when I decide to delete most of my post.
Cause I thought memories are memories cause they will always be in your mind, so I don't need this.
After struggling for a couple of minutes, my mind won the game and my finger went ahead and click click click and everything was gone.
My heart immediately felt like shit one second later and I realized I CAN'T RECOVER THEM?!
I mean, I really do have a lot of memories that I want to keep that is in my mind, but then I had these posts to remind me about them and I could laugh at my silliness.
So sad.

Fortunately, I found a way to recover some of them and I was happy.
My post about granny, I was able to get it back. It was enough for me.
but most of 2012 were not there, mostly because I haven't been posting lol

Anyway, I believe I did a great choice.
Now, I can have a brand new start.

xoxo,
Sherine.

those emo moments

I miss being well taken care.

Well, who doesn't like being well take care? But everybody have to leave that comfort zone at one point, some earlier while others later.

I don't regret.
I just miss it.

New blog!!

Ok so I've been struggling to start a blog and finally I just decided to pinned it down and get it done.
Why not right?
It's a good place to share and sharing is caring!
Not that anybody will come over but still, I'm sharing my thoughts to myself okay?! >.<

The reason I can't decide is I don't know what to do with it.
Well, I guess I don't need a reason but I mean at the moment I don't know what to write in here yet.
But don't worry, no matter what I write it's just gonna be about me lol
by saying me I mean EVERYTHING about me like my problems, my ranting, my life, my idiotic thoughts bla bla bla, good or bad. (hey, don't judge me! >< ) ya pretty much.
I think that could be a good enough reason, no? whatever.
Well, not like I will write down every second cause that people passing by might be bored to death cause I'll be writing things like"So I breathe in...and out...and while I'm breathing I pick up the glass and drink water....."
people will probably flag me for wasting the unlimited space on internet lol
Don't worry I won't do that.
But I can't promise it's gonna be interesting, cause I'm a pretty boring person.

Good luck to me! Let's hope I have fun :)
xoxo
