Grocery Bill 2

Posted on April 11, 2018April 12, 2018 by Shireen

Shopping for groceries is my almost daily affair. I get my dose of retail therapy even if it means shopping for groceries, in a chic and clean air conditioned supermarket that is, where I can get everything that I want and not in a stinky and hot wet market ? I know I am spoilt like…

Grocery Bill

Posted on April 6, 2018April 12, 2018 by Shireen

It’s been a while since I last posted about what’s in my daily groceries shopping cart! Being a health freak mom who believes in eating natural and organic food with minimal to zero processed food, our monthly grocery bills exceed RM2,000 per month. If we can afford going fully organic, our grocery bill will be…

Pan-Fried Soy Sauce Prawns

Posted on August 15, 2017August 16, 2017 by Shireen

Today I wanted to teach Cass to be responsible at home by helping to clear and clean the table after lunch. If Alycia and Drama Queen are around, they would be the ones to clear and clean the dining table after every meal. They are normally not around for lunch on school days. After lunch,…

Updates – 25 July 2017

Posted on July 25, 2017July 25, 2017 by Shireen

Sorry for the lack of update in my blogs. It was only after a phone call from my dearest mummy this morning to check on me on why I have been so quiet lately that I realized that I have not been updating my blogs for days. So why the silence? Whenever you do not…

Final Exams Are Over!

Posted on October 21, 2016October 21, 2016 by Shireen

FINALLY the day that all the exams for year 2016 are over and done with is here today. For all 3 girls. Can you feel my relief? Can you? 😀 😀 If you are a parent with school-going kids, I am sure you’ll feel me deeply. I have not planned out what to do with…

Award-Winning Dawdler

Posted on October 20, 2016October 20, 2016 by Shireen

Someone just spoilt my afternoon and I am still burning with anger! Just a moment ago, I received a call from a sales staff from a bank trying to sell a product to me. I wasn’t interested and I told him straight. Then he said that he won’t take long and just wanted to give…

Exam Fever

Posted on October 15, 2016October 16, 2016 by Shireen

Today is finally the end of Alycia’s final exam. It has been a tough one week for her with lots of last minute revising and only getting 4 hours of sleep each night. My constant nagging to the girls to revise daily has fallen on deaf ears and she prefers to do an eleventh hour…

Smart TV Lessons From Drama Queen

Posted on October 4, 2016 by Shireen

Can you believe that ever since the hubs replaced our old TV with a WiFi-enabled smart TV one year ago, I still do not know how to turn it on? HA HA HA! Unbelievable right? Truth is, I have NO TIME to watch the TV. Am I the only work-from-home-mum of 3 kids who is…

Bribing My Kids

Posted on October 1, 2016October 1, 2016 by Shireen

Today I bribed the small brat. Cute as a button and can melt my heart when she is in her angelic mode, this brat can be a little monster when she is switched to devilish mode, spewing out the molten lava from my within through my nose, mouth, ears and all outlets in my body. Though…

Supermom

Posted on April 17, 2016May 24, 2017 by Shireen

On some bad days, the term “I am a good mom” is not by any stretch of my own imagination. I’d feel incompetent and unfit to be a mom. On some good days, “I am a good mom” does not really measure my own worth. On these good days, the girls would think that…

Throes Of Motherhood

Posted on January 29, 2016January 30, 2016 by Shireen

Sorry for the lack of updates in my blog for the past 2 weeks. These days, I try very hard to force myself to be in bed by 10pm as I have to wake up for my ‘night duty’ at 2am. It’s agonizing ok, to force yourself up from your beauty sleep to do your…

My Wednesday – 6 January 2016

Posted on January 6, 2016April 11, 2017 by Shireen

Haih… and so the nasty chi that circulated around me yesterday attacked me right up to the moment I clambered onto bed at the stroke of midnight. I thought that after calling it off for the day, the bad chi would end but NAY! The moment I plonked onto bed, I felt a crick on…

Bad Day

Posted on January 5, 2016April 11, 2017 by Shireen

This is one of the rules of a typical Chinese school that I really hate! Hair cannot be more than 5cm below the ears. Wait, there’s more. No concave style. No stylo mylo cut. Only plain Bob! If you want to keep bangs, make sure they are clipped up with only BLACK hair pins or…

Stressful Monday – 7 October 2015

Posted on October 8, 2015 by Shireen

The past 1 week has been super duper dreadfully stressful for me. Have I told you that Miss Drama Queen has stopped attending the daily after-school tuition center effective October 2015? I don’t see any improvement in her grades for the past 1 year and she did not fulfill her daddy’s ultimatum to show us…

Conversation With Cass

Posted on August 24, 2015August 24, 2015 by Shireen

Going through the throes of motherhood, often times my girls will drive me to the point of breaking down with thoughts of packing my bags and ditching them for good! When the girls, especially the littlest one was in her rascal temperament and being very disobedient last week… Me – I will leave you all…

Conversation On Bang Bang Over Dinner

Posted on June 23, 2015June 23, 2015 by Shireen

At the dining table over dinner today, the song “Bang Bang” by Jessie J, Ariana Grande and Nicki Minaj was played on the radio. The girls sang along as they ate dinner. Alycia – mummy, do you know what “bang bang” means actually? Me (acting dumb) – yeah… bang bang with a gun like this…
