Laguna Redang, 10th year visit

Before anything, we already have plans to return this year. We've been coming back here since we first got married (before Yusuf).

This year, Safiyya is old enough to appreciate the pool and beach sand. She and Ali Imran are not the swimming in the ocean getting soaked type. Yusuf is already snorkeling. I am still terrified of fish.

I could have sworn the same fish had been trolling me for years. According to Shu, it's a Parrot Fish. Doesn't matter what it's called, it scares me every damn time I'm in the water.

The island just opened after being closed during the monsoon season. I was desperate to get out in the sun because city life was really pushing me back into depression and I do not miss being depressed.

It rained one time but I never realized how happy I was getting soaked in the rain. I used to run in the rain and being in the rain by the beach was awesome.

The next day, the weather started picking up. That was great 😊

I know that now is the time when people have so much to say

But I just want to talk about how much I love snakes because they are so cute. I keep falling in love everytime I see them and they make me so happy.

We recently ended up in Malacca because we were so sick of hanging around the city. Shu asked what our plan was and I had no plans so yeah.........

It was awesome and wholesome.

We ended up at the Malacca Butterfly and Reptiles Sanctuary in Ayer Keroh. We saw butterfly eggs.The kids fed the koi fish and guppies. We saw American Alligators being fed. We saw Emu eggs and crocodile eggs. We played with a 5-year old ball python.

They had an Anaconda! I am terrified of Anacondas! They have the cutest kingsnake and rat snake ever!

My personal favourite is the red-tailed rat snake. I spent time just looking at the babies and they were calling to me.

Was talking to the caretaker named Mr Rizal (I think that was his name) about snakes and feeding them and taking care of them and he was recommending either the kingsnake or the rat snake or even the ball python coz they don't grow too big. I don't have a problem with feeding live animals to these predators because that's their nature.My only concern would be keeping a steady temperature for their living spaces.

I have been thinking about getting a pet snake forever. I was thinking of the cornsnake because they are so cute.

Oh yeah!We saw the poison dart frog.It is so cute that you just wanna kiss it and take it home! (And then die of poison)

Anyways,I'll post up pictures later coz they're in my phone ^_^

In Another Life

I think I have found my new spirit animal

The thing about social media.........

It's one thing to have a social media account. It's a whole other story to commenting or thinking that by saying something you are participating in something. It's alright to just observe,really. And only say something that would or could help with progress or development within a certain topic. I find that there are some who just loves to hate on people. Maybe it helps them get by their shortcomings.

I am more annoyed of those who pry. Insinuating certain negative thoughts but not wanting to be direct about them. If you have a problem,you should resolve them.If the problem is with other people having the time and money to do things or go to places that you want to go but can't,it's a problem you have with yourself.

What ever people spend their money and time on is entirely their rights to do so.How much money spent is also their rights.The more you say shit like "Oh,you can afford that,unlike me or the rest of us....." Well,here's a reality check for you.Yes,we can afford it.Yes,we decided to do it.What ever you have to say will not change anything,really.

Here's a tip,though.......Save Up.I don't know what you spend your money and time on most of your days but I honestly don't care.

What ever I want to post about anything that I do is my right. You can hate on it and get all upset about not being able to go or do what I do.It's not going to make any difference at all.

I like to spend my time finding ways to do what I want to do next and how to do it.If I see someone with a big house,I'm only interested to know how that person is able to get there.I'm not gonna sit around gossiping and speculating about how that person is able to afford things.It's a waste of time.

Shu and I were talking about all the bullshit around us

Let's start with fucking activists who doesn't understand what being an activist is about. You have a cause. Most of the time it's a good cause. But not everyone is on the same boat coz we have different point of views. That's not what pisses me off though. It's when you get us stuck in one of your speaches and then when we don't support you coz we have our reasons, suddenly you give us shade. Seriously bitch?!

I was harassed for about a month by Greenpeace. They talk to me about their cause and I am totally all for it. The moment I said I'm a stay at home mom and I'm not earning, the conversation cuts short. So it's actually not about the cause, it's about having fucking monthly salary so that you can fucking cut it on a monthly basis. Should I be wondering why this needs to be a continuous support money-wise? So spreading recycling cause or use less plastic is absolutely useless if you don't have a stable paycheck.

Later on, another group approached us. I mistook them for UNICEF. It turns out they are for child refugees. Sign the petition? OK. No monthly paychecks? Oh we cannot be friends.

I told Shu that I'mma be flaunting all of my high-end shit and shopping bags in my fucking expensive shades and tell them I can't help them coz I am not earning. Sorry 🙄

Get your fucking perspectives and priorities right.

Sea Life Malaysia

A lot of people who aren't interested in sea life would never appreciate these places. Yes, it's like the Sea Life Sydney we went to years ago. The creatures are different. I mean typically if you go down under you'd want to take a close look at a bullshark coz they are locals there.

We saw a variety of seahorses. Black tip reef sharks are very common in Malaysian waters. I first saw one when Shu and I went snorkeling. I was scared shitless and ran on water.

But I was swimming with ginormous white tip reef sharks at Sea World Gold Coast last year. They were huge!

Happy Be-Early Birthday Yusuf!

People are people

I've come to realize that a lot of people do not know me at all other than Shu and my kids.They don't know how I really look like when I go out or what I look like at all.Not a problem.I'd like to keep it that way.

Having said that,I have come to realize that in 2019,I seem to come across as someone who is high maintenance to most people.That is partly true.A lot of people assume I like high end branded stuff and that I shop a lot and I only shop or hangout at certain places.REALLY??? Wow!

I don't know many brands other than those that I discover throughout my love for cosmetics and skincare.Handbags aren't a thing for me.I have tops or dresses from certain brands because Shu likes to buy me stuff whenever he goes out with the kids.Like that top he got me from buying lunch with Ali Imran and Yusuf.He went into the store next door while waiting for my coffee to be ready.He also picked up an outfit for Safiyya.

Shu can go walking around in a mall while I'm waiting for a drink or something at some random coffee shop and comes back with a bag of clothes he thought would look nice on me.He'd get me stuff like handbags from brands or shops I don't know.

Seriously,if it was up to me,I'd know brands like Tory Burch and Roxy.Erm.......like I said,handbags isn't a thing for me.I have a few only coz Shu buys me some.My mum gifts me some.I did buy a few in the past only coz a relative was in the United States.

I could sit all day and talk about makeup and swatches........or DC animations and comics.......and some gaming..........yeah.......Ejen Ali..........

Anywho,what I was getting to was that a lot of people who know me and don't know me really just don't know me at all.I am super excited about plants and interior designing and storage.I really love action figures.I like singing and busking on the acoustic guitar with Shu.I spend time dancing to Just Dance Kids songs with my kids at home.

It's really funny how I come across as high maintenance........hahahhaaha!!!!!

I'mma call it an early birthday present!

Shu got me......... This!!!!!

I waited to unbox him with Shu. Omg!!! The detailing on him is out of this world!!!!

Shu and I were just talking yesterday........

He and I seem to be on the same page about the generation that seem useless as a whole. These people whom are working and seem to have a routine but has no clue as to why they cannot make sense of their routine or are in fact happy at all.

They don't know why they cannot afford a lot of things so they complain.They cannot make sense of regulations or understand what they read so they complain.When I say read,I don't mean reading leisure books.I'm talking about simple instructions.

For example,we see a lot of people getting stuck at toll booths.Instead of following instructions on the display monitor,they keep going back and forth and not knowing why the card reader won't read their cards.It didn't say "place card on the reader". It said "no smart tag". 

They don't know why the blinkers on the car is meant as an indicator BEFORE turning the car.They use it as they are turning.Erm,it's called indicators.How to change the wheels?How to check the temperature gauge.......or rather,WHY you have a temperature gauge at all.How to know if your tires or brake pads need a change.

How to use an electric drill to make holes on the wall to be able to hang picture frames.How to change a light bulb. How to do taxes and how to calculate percentages.Figures.......numbers..........How to pay bills.Where to pay bills.

There are no communial responsibility in these beings.Just themselves and how they look and what they post on their social media accounts.YouTube is a great place to learn things but I doubt that these people use it for learning at all.

Information is everywhere but they don't look for information which are useful and applicable in daily lives.They read headlines and believe it to be true.It's on the internet after all, IT MUST BE TRUE......right?

I have serious doubts about letting them do budgets.They don't have a clue what monthly expenses are or what are liabilities and what are assets.No clue what is priority and what is leisure.

They use the English language and jargon to feel superior but they have no clue what they are saying.

It's not a boomer thing or a millenial thing.It's ignorance and stupidity.

Actually,these are the easy targets to milk money from.They don't know anything.

Took the kids out for a movie today

We watched Ejen Ali The Movie. IT WAS AWESOME!

I've been watching the Ejen Ali episodes online since season 1 and I really liked the show. The movie took it all to a whole new level. Definitely a MUST WATCH!

I laughed so hard when they introduced General Rama's assist team members over at Mamak Maju but General Rama getting his own Rajnikanth fight scene was super awesome.

The movie also filled in the gaps about what really happened to Ali's mom.I cried so many times. Even when I was watching the show online,everytime they touched the subject on his mom,it's always just so sad.

I'd totally watch the movie again :)

Fookin' Frittids!

Dear God Damned IKEA,

Why in the hell hole of a Stuva would you sell a fucking bedframe WITHOUT a bed slat? WHY?! Could it be that maybe,just MAYBE regular people just happen to have fucking bed slats lying around the house whenever we buy a fucking kids bed frame? And not to mention the measurements are different than a standard single fucking mattress size!!!

Fucking Hemnes!

Saffiya wanted to be a witch

So I got her a Nimbus 2000
