Advice On Getting Tattoos / Body Art 😎

So the other day, my girlfriends were discussing about getting a tattoo and they approached me for some advise since I've got 2 tattoos (Only) LOL! 😁 Anyway I thought...why not share my personal experience and some advise about tattoos on my blog.😘

Though I usually blog about Parenting, Family, Life, Humanity etc..but occasionally, I do blog on interesting random lifestyle topics if I feel that the contents would benefit the readers who follow my blogs. Well, that's what Blogging is all about, at least in my view! 😆

I appreciate beautiful tattoos work & body art. Personally, I love Spiritual and Mystical tattoo designs because I feel a strong connection within. I've got a Guardian Angel holding a baby tattooed on my upper arm and a small Lotus flower symbol on my wrist. Both tattoos hold special meanings related to some past memories and they also serve as positive reminders to myself when I face different challenges in life. Anyways, if you google Guardian Angels or Lotus symbols, you will find a lot of information and their meanings for all the different tattoo designs...Nuffsaid! 😁

Here are some advise & tips (*Based on my personal experience) if you are getting a tattoo.😉

*Advice /  Tips On Getting A Tattoo :

#1. Always get an experienced, reliable and a certified tattoo artist to do the job. 

#2. Do NOT rush to get a tattoo. Don't go for the trend! Get the tattoo design that you truly love or feel connected with. Your tattoo should be something special and meaningful to you that you are proud to show them and won't ever regret getting inked.

#3. Do NOT get a tattoo if you feel unwell, emotional, tired, drunk or after a break-up because *Tattoos Are Permanent! Only get inked when your mind is crystal clear because you don't want to spend thousands of dollars for tattoo removal laser treatment years down the road.

#4. Discuss with your tattoo artist about the design you want.(*Size of the tattoo/colors & placement, etc) Don't be shy to ask questions if you need any information. Be clear and understand what you truly want. If you don't feel comfortable with the artist. Don't do it! Keep looking around and always remember to check out their reviews and artworks profile, background, etc..

#5. Tattoos are painful. Do expect some degree of pain but it isn't as bad as you imagine because once the skin is numb after a while, the pain is bearable for *most* people. Keep in mind that everyone have different pain tolerance. There is no need to play hero, you can always take a short break if you need a rest when the pain is too overwhelming and continue later when you feel much better.

#6. Try to relax your mind and body. Don't keep staring at the needles/tools or focus on the buzzing sound and pain. Look away if you are afraid to watch the process but remember to breathe normally and fear not!..the pain isn't permanent.😄

#7. Fix a day just for your tattoo appointment so you don't have to rush the artist for your next appointments, meetings or dates etc..

#8. Always follow the aftercare instructions when the tattoo is done, because you want your tattoo will heal nicely and look great on your body.😘

I got both my tattoos done at Alive Tattoo Studio, located at Lucky Chinatown, Singapore.

I recommend this place because Alecs is an experienced tattoo artist and he is very friendly, patient and humble. He's got a good attitude and he listen to what the customers want and offer sensible ideas & suggestions.👍

Alecs is serious and careful with his work. He is very creative with customized tattoo designs as well. I'm very happy with the Guardian Angel tattoo that he designed for me when I got my first ink many years ago...He is very professional and their rates are reasonable too.  

Therefore, I strongly recommend *Alive Tattoo Studio* to my friends and anyone who intend to get a tattoo. If I ever get another tattoo, I will definitely look for Alecs again.😎

I Wrote My Songs 🎼

I feel very honored to be invited to a launch party last evening. It was a private event, strictly by invitation so I brought my sister along since we both love Chinese Pop Music.😘

Last year, I took part in a Song Writing Contest organized by SGSW [我写我的歌 2017] I'm happy to contribute my work and be part of this music event. For the record, over 450 songs (including my songs) were submitted last year and only 1 winner for this contest. I finally met the winner in person when he sang his song with his keyboard on stage last evening...

It was a touching, sad love song [请你记得我] and I like it! 😝 Personally, if any songs that connect your emotions, touches your heart..a song that can make you cry, laugh and the lyrics stay in your head...That's a good song/music in my opinion.😎

It was a nice outdoor party held at the Roof Garden of Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC). We enjoyed great live music performance and the beautiful evening sceneries around, food and drinks were provided as well..What an awesome party! 👍

Music is my passion! I love writing my songs, playing my guitar, ukulele and drums. I shall submit my new song when it's completed.😉

I hope more people will support our local talents and musicians. Who knows there could be many more local talents like JJLin and Stefanie Sun for the Chinese music industry.

Winning the contest is secondary to me..I just wanna' write my songs, let music be my voice and let my songs be heard...Anyway, win or lose, it doesn't really matter, because in the end, I still gain another experience...Well, at least the panel of judges have heard my songs,lol..so, may the best man/song wins!😉

Till then, I'll update my new blog soon, do stick around folks..Cheers! 😘🥂

Friends or Foes? 😇😈

As some of you already know that I’m a Blogger, many of you have visited my website and read my blogs but I keep a low profile for privacy and security reasons.

I have been blogging for a few years now, I enjoy writing and expressing myself. I blog about Life, Family, Parenting, Motherhood, Social Matters and random stuff. I made some really cool friends on the net but I also met many cyber bullies, keyboard warriors, and trolls in some active group chats and forums etc..

Hence, we can never understand their weird notions and their intentions. As a person who values integrity and true friendships, I will share some advise to warn people to be careful with the circles of ‘friends’ around them.

I have compiled some reliable information into a Checklist below. These are important rules to help you understand if you are dealing with a Friend or a Foe?😇😈

*** KEEP IN MIND ***

Rule #1 : Do NOT share too much personal information with casual 'friends',  you never know if they may betray you or expose your secrets with others and twist the story around for everyone to condemn you.

Rule #2 : Trust no one! Don’t be too trusting just yet. Set your boundaries and your comfort zone, if they are your real friends, you will know it sooner. Observe them.

Rule #3 : Beware of those who calls you Bro, Sis, Babe, Hun etc.. Not everyone who smiles at you are real friends. Keep in mind that even Salt look like Sugar!

Rule #4 : People change over the years, you can't expect the friends whom you haven't seen for a decade are the same nerds during school days. Someone who used to be kind and gentle could possibly turn out to be a monster or your worst enemies. Friends come and go, only the true ones stick around to share your happiness and sadness.

Rule #5 : Stay away from fake friends, if those who intend to harm you, badmouth and sabotage you..Hey! these aren’t genuine friends at all. Delete them, eliminate them, block them and strike off their contacts. Trust me, you don’t need them in your life!

Rule #6 : Choose your friends wisely. Stay with friends who are sincere, honest, supportive and they make you feel comfortable and who will never leave you out.

Rule #7 : Do NOT feed cyber bullies!!! Bullies are loners, self-centered and they are Never cool! The more you befriend with the bullies, the more negative vibes and troubles you will attract. Respect everyone equally, no one is superior than the others, stop sucking up and acting like clowns!

Rule #8 : Do NOT follow and believe everything blindly! Think and observe. A coin have 2 sides, listen and understand both sides of the stories before you act or judge anything.

I hope this Checklist can be a guide for people who have doubts about the friends around them. Indeed, everyone need friends but be very careful who you trust and hang out with because we are living in a complicated world surrounded by both "Angels" and "Devils" in our daily lives.

Share and Repost if you think this blog is helpful. Peace! 😎✌

Be A Real Gentleman 😎

My son once asked, "Mommy, what is a gentleman?"

So I explained to him...

A gentleman is a guy who treat others in a proper and respectful manner, he takes pride as a man, he treats women with respect and kindness. He is polite, refined and well-mannered.

My son replied, "Am I a gentleman?"

I laughed and said.."Yes you are, darling! you are already a little gentleman when you hold the door for an old lady and gave way to the ladies in the lift many times, i heard you said.."Ladies First.." Welldone son! Keep it up! Mommy is very proud of you. :)

At such a young age, you have display how a man should treat a woman, no wonder you are so popular in school and always surrounded by girls.Lol.:D
