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 brother’s phone coz for some reason I did not take any photos from this trip! gaah!!

This is one of my fave shots with my brother. Taken at the Dubai Flower Garden earlier this year.  (can you spot my other slipper?)

Apparently, 2008 was my record-breaking year for jump shots. Hehehe.

It even goes back as far as my college years. This was during our exposure trip in Palawan, Philippines.

These are just a few… I’m sure there are more photos waiting to be rediscovered. I should dig them out from storage!

So what’s your signature pose?

Hey there! I’m a mom of two who loves to crochet. Balancing work and motherhood is crazy, but I handle it with love and humor. With my eldest entering her tween years, the chaos just got a whole lot more interesting!

I’m fueled by coffee and dream of working from home. When I need to chill, I turn to my trusty essential oils. They’re my secret weapon for staying sane in the madness.

Join me for mom life, crochet, and my journey to work from home and retire before life passes me by.

    Meditation yoga pose, I didn’t even know it was a signature pose of mine until a friend did it and asked for permission if she can post it on instagram. Lol

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!)
