The moment you realize
that your bones are made of the same dust
as the planets,
your lungs are breathing the same air
as the migrating butterflies,
and your blood is pumping because
of the love and care of thousands;

is when you realize
that you are not as broken
as you think you are.
you are full
of the world.

Esemtan Skin Balm & Wash Lotion

Wednesday, August 19, 2015
I have really DRY & SENSITIVE skin so there are so many products in the market I can't use as they tend to make my skin itch. Just recently, the skin on my hands started peeling and CRACKING - Yes, THAT bad. It was so bad my fingers started bleeding. It got even worse when I was out of town. Luckily, I came back home to a pleasant surprise from Esemtan! 
Being the really skeptical person that I am, I decided to google Esemtan online before trying out the products they sent to me. 

Did you know Esemtan is used by many leading hospitals in Singapore?

BUT WHY?

Like me, millions of Singaporeans suffer from dry and itchy skin. Ordinary soap can make things worse than it already is. Some non-soap cleansers kill germs BUT they also wash away your skin's natural protection. 

Esemtan is the one hygienic wash that DOESN'T HARM YOUR SKIN, damage your hair OR sting your eyes. It contains a protective moisturizer and oil restoring substance that leaves your skin feeling clean, soft and smooth. Its LOW 5.0 pH balance means Esemtan can be used for adults, and even babies every single day! 

Skin problems? No problem!
Esemtan can help relieve skin irritation and accelerate healing process.

Now you know WHY Singapore's leading hospitals and health professionals around the world choose Esemtan! ;)

Since Esemtan is also suitable for children, I decided to try it out on Aaryanna as well. As you can see, I think Aaryanna APPROVES! I love that it doesn't have a strong scent (Cos those with strong scents means lotsa chemicals are used right?) but still enough to make you smell nice.

Personally the wash lotion is a huge plus point for me becos you can use it from head to toe! Talk about convenience.

Also, as I mentioned earlier, I have really really sensitive skin, so many products tend to make my skin itch. I was so glad that Esemtan doesn't.

IT'S BETTER THAN SOAP BECOS IT'S NOT SOAP! ;)

Uncle Ringo

Tuesday, August 18, 2015
Whenever we think of carnival games in Singapore, I'm sure most of us think of Uncle Ringo. I've always loved Uncle Ringo carnivals since I was a little girl, and now, I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that Aaryanna loves it too.

Uncle Ringo is one of the largest carnival equipment rental and events planning company in Singapore. They have been a household name since the 1980s and has organized countless of carnivals, fun-fairs, themed parties, product launches, fund-raising charities, school events and many more...

Imagine my excitement when I was invited down to their recent event at Bayfront Ave. 
However, most of the games/rides required them to be 3 years old and abv. *So please take note!* Nevertheless we had a ton of fun winning prizes from the games so no complains. Hahaha. We actually had waaay more fun then the kids did.
Follow me on snapchat (@xoxoay)! :)

Uncle Ringo's next carnival event will be held at ang pao river at the end of this year so follow them on facebook (https://www.facebook.com/uncleringoclub) for more updates! Or if you're interested to hire them for a party/event feel free to hit em' up for an absolutely FREE quote.

Can't wait till their next carnival, and hopefully Aaryanna will be old enough to play bumper cars with me by then! Tee hee.

Till then,

This world is such a fucken horrible and miserable place to live in.

Experience the sounds of luxury with JBL

Tuesday, August 11, 2015
Music is a huge part of my life. I listen to it every-single-day! Honestly, it has never bothered me whether I used cheap or expensive earphones as long as sound comes out from it and I can hear my music - That was until I started DJ-ing. I never knew that the earphones/headphones you used could make SUCH a HUGE difference! :O

I was given the JBL Flip 2, a portable bluetooh speaker and their Synchros Reflect, which are workout-ready in-ear sport headphones. 
Synchros Reflect
The Synchros reflect comes with angled ear-tips which makes it secure so that the ergonomic ear-tips stay put during even the most INTENSE workouts! It's a first for me, I've never seen any other earphones shaped this way.

The adjustable magnetic cable allows you to clasps the earbuds around your neck!!! OH, and did I mention that the cables are reflecitve? You can't see it in the photos cos they were taken in the day but the brightly reflected cord makes it visible at night. AND it is sweat proof!!! +++++++points!!! Esp for sporty people/people who work out often (y)
JBL Flip 2
Bluetooth connection, rechargeable battery, and even an in-built mike so you can answer calls without skipping a beat. What more is there to ask for from a portable speaker? The JBL Flip 2 is especially handy and convenient for people who are always on the go. For a picnic, or even when you're going cycling! It is also extremely hassle free to connect to! You can basically just connect it to ANY audio device! How cool is that?

Big thank you to IMS Marketing, (Singapore distributor of leading audio brands like JBL, Harman Kardon and AKG) for the invite and goodies!

Bintan Lagoon Resort, Day 1

Monday, August 10, 2015
It's not my first time to Indonesia, but it's the first time I've ever stayed at Bintan Lagoon Resort!
OH! Before I continue, did you know that Bintan Lagoon Resort has their very own PRIVATE ferry service? The ferry goes straight to the resort so you don't have to take public buses/transport etc. How cool is that?! 

Despite being exhausted (I stayed up the entire night before), I was excited to explore the place. It is HUGE and there're so many activities you can do in the resort alone!

Bintan Lagoon Resort
 Jalan Indera Segara Site A12, 
Lagoi, Kepri, Bintan Utara, 
Kabupaten Bintan, Kepulauan Riau 29155, 
Indonesia 
All of us were STARVING so we headed straight for the breakfast buffet right after we left our bags in the room.

Kopi-O Restaurant
Please tell me I'm not the only one who LOVES BREAKFAST BUFFETS?!?! They had such a wide variety of food, consisting of western, asian and other international delights. NOMZ :P It's a pity I was waaaay too hungry to take pictures of the selection of food they had that day. 

---

Did some work around the hotel and went back to our room for a short nap before headin' out to have dinner.

---

RICE Restaurant By The Beach
I ordered steak (can't remember the exact name for it) and ohhhh myyyyy, the texture was extremely bouncy - Just right. Like how I like my beef to be. It is extremely mouth-watering and just thinking about it now makes me wanna head back for some beefy goodness *licks* 
The seaview from the restaurant was breathtaking!!! Really suitable for romantic dates with your significant other. My photo does the view no justice AT ALL :(

---

Headed back to our room after to turn in for day 2.
DAY 2 WAS SUCH A FUN (AND TIRING DAY) - Stay tuned to see what we did :)

Lovers' Bridge (Taiwan)

Sunday, August 9, 2015
Tamsui District
New Taipei City
Taiwan 251
Visited the lovers' bridge while we were in Taiwan. We went in the noon so it was blistering hot. Bad decision, but the view was beautiful. I never fail to find myself in awe whenever I travel, everything just looks so spectacular to me. 
4AM thoughts.
Ugh.
STOP.

Happy birthday, Singapore!

Can't believe this was Aaryanna just last year - On the exact same date. 
I've said this one time too many but... 
MY BABY'S GROWING UP SOOOO FAST *Hysterical cries*
Anyway, Happy Birthday Singapore! Hope everyone's havin' tons of fun this jubilee weekend.

Freaking out at 5AM because I wanted to practice and there's no sound coming out from my controller!!!
I just downloaded new songs and have a gig tomorrow. Yet to set my cues and/or practice. I'm basically pretty much screwed.
If only things were as easy as they seem...
