Kabayan Family Fun Day

August 30, 2014 by Sheila | A B & Me Leave a Comment

We were invited to attend the Kabayan Family Fun Day at Modhesh World last Tuesday, 26 August 2014. It was a good excuse to go out with B on a weekday. The little one is always cooped up at home with the nanny while A and I are at work. I only have one day…

And yet again, I am starting my post with … “this is a late post”.  😛 A couple of months back, we decided to take B to Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo in Dubai Mall. Summer has started and the only place we could go was the mall. Entertainer vouchers also played a part in…

Been There: Dhow Cruise – Dibba, Oman

August 12, 2014 by Sheila | A B & Me Leave a Comment

In late 2010, I was forced to join a dhow cruise in Dibba, Oman. Yes, forced 😀 . You see, it was an office thing and I’m the only female in the department so I’m not really thrilled about the trip. But anyway, I went and tried to enjoy the day.  Sheila | A B…

What’s your signature pose?

August 9, 2014 by Sheila | A B & Me 2 Comments

Some people would plank. Some would do yoga poses. Some would have their finger pointing at something/someone. I guess mine would be the jump shot. I just realized that I do a lot of jump shots.  Here’s a few, just for fun. Taken earlier this year when we went to Jebel Hafeet. Photo grabbed from my…

Burj Khalifa

At the Top, Burj Khalifa

August 8, 2014 by Sheila | A B & Me 3 Comments

Flashback to 2012. Yes, I have been to the top of the world’s tallest building (well, actually I’ve been to the 124th floor where the observation deck is). This massive structure holds several record-breaking titles under its belt.  If the Burj Khalifa is a character in Game of Thrones, you would have to introduce it like this:…

Hello!

Hey there!
We’re a Filipino family of four figuring things out in California after living in Dubai for years. This space is part blog, part memory box—where we share life lately, parenting wins and fails, travels, and everything in between.

Sometimes it’s deep, sometimes it’s funny, but it’s always honest. Thanks for hanging out with us!

I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO I’ve been thinking a lot about the whole “YOLO” mindset. It sounds fun — and sometimes it IS harmless. But when we let it guide our decisions without pause… it can turn into a habit of acting first, thinking later. 

This post is just something I made to process that idea. What if we shifted from the YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE to YOU ONLY DIE ONCE? 

It’s not being a buzzkill. It’s about modeling self-control, delayed gratification, and faith in action—even when it’s not popular. 

What do you think: YOLO or YODO?

Ps. I shared more of the story behind this thought over on @threads if you’re curious (same handle!)

You’ve been my constant for 20+ years—through chaos, kids, and late-night cravings. You serve, you provide, you love us like crazy. We’re so lucky! 

You’re really a hard habit to break.
