Hello beautiful earthlings!

EsTrails: Hillsong Church and More Food | Day 3 & 4 in London

Hello beautiful earthlings!
Didn't I say that I would post another one? So here's our 3rd and 4th day in London. Our 3rd day in London fell on a Sunday so our friend Louise invited us to attend the church service of Hillsong Church London which we were more than happy to go to.

ESurient: Gaza Café in Soho, London

Hello beautiful earthlings!
I hope you all are well and keeping warm during this winter season. So happy that it is December and that Christmas is almost here! I want to take you guys back to my memory lane back during the summer when we went to London.

EsTrails: Food Trip | London Day 1 & 2

Hello beautiful earthlings.
I didn't manage to post this before we left for London last weekend. Life has been hectic yet again. I was busy before we headed before London and then stress hit me when I got back to work. But it's almost the weekend so I guess I am surviving.

EsTrails: #ESCAfterMath | Day 2 & 3 in Oslo

EsTrails: European Singles Congress 2017 in Hallingdal, Norway | #SFLBestLifeEver

Back in July, my friends and I headed to Norway for the yearly European Singles Congress. We were originally to host the event but due to the Ireland's high costs it was decided to move it to Norway. I saw this as an opportunity to travel to another country.
At the beginning of the year, I was planning to save my annual leave because I had planned to go to Korea this year as a graduation treat to myself but it never happened and I don't think it is going to happen for the rest of the year.
I am not sour about it that I didn't go to Korea this year. This year's ESC was something.

With this year's theme of United Together in Christ, I've learnt to work with people. I really wanted to reflect on this year's theme and apply it to my life. We all learnt how to work with each other especially in difficult times.
During that weekend I've received my assignment from God. At first it was tough to take in but all I could do was surrender everything and follow His plans because His plans are always greater than the plans I have for me.

Somewhere in Norway - in between Hallingdal and Oslo 😂ㅋ

Watch my vlog for the weekend?


I hope your week is going well so far! I'm all good and happy~ I'll see you guys in my next post.
Peace and Love,

ESthetics: Favourite Spreads & Collections | Bullet Journal Series

Hello beautiful earthlings!
Here's a blog post that I have been excited to share for the past few weeks! It has been in my to-do list for a couple weeks and I finally managed to do this!

EsTrails: Strolling Around Oslo | Day 1 in Oslo

Hello beautiful earthlings!
It has been 2 months since our trip to Norway and looking back at the photos and clips that I've included for my blog and vlog makes me miss it!

EsTrails: Versailles Venture | Day 5 in Paris

Hello beautiful earthlings!
I am guilty for procrastinating when it comes to creating, drafting and publishing this post. I have no excuse to be honest but after I do this post, I will plan out my weeks better in terms of what I have to do like my blog posts, videos and maybe start a new series here on my blog!

ESthetics: Review | Ichiko Bento - August Box

Hello beautiful earthlings!
Yesterday, I have received Ichiko Bento's August box. After the first box, I looked forward to receiving the August box. But to be honest, my excitement wore off after a couple of messages from the company saying that they had to push back the dates. I further express my feelings towards Ichiko Bento towards the end of this post. But for now, let's have a little show and tell of their August box.

Personal: Birthday Ramblings

Great are You Lord over all
We will declare Lord You are faithful
Great are You Lord over all
Great are You Lord
You are the strength of my life Lord
It doesn't matter what may come my way
You are the strength of my life Lord
I'm holding on to You

I am thankful to my God for blessing me another year on this earth. Thankful for my blessings: my family, my friends, my workmates and my job. During my early 20s, I struggled with self-doubt and dealing with failure. Who knew that during in my mid-20s that I would experience my own success through self belief, perseverance, fervent prayers and encouragement of family and friends? I still have my doubts and I feel that I should already be accomplished but yesterday I was reminded and received affirmation and said

"Wow, you've already achieved a lot. You have been to places and you'll graduate."

To receive such affirmation made me realise that my life's timeline is different to others. Whoever reads this and stuck this far into my ramblings, if you feel like you are in a rut, I pray that you will get to feel the way I feel now. I am happy with the timeline that I am blessed with and would not have it any other way.

For the past few years, I've been scared turning another year older but now I'm happy to be 26. Not all children are blessed to live that longer. And I have realised this week that another year means another year of blessings and to be a blessing.

Peace and Love,

You can read up on their history and it may pique your interest.
