My late grandma on the far right with her siblings whom we all call “nini”. One of my fondest childhood memories of popo is watching her break half a stick of her favourite cigarette Benson & Hedges Gold, rewrap it to a new filter paper, lick the edges and roll it perfectly to a new joint. And she would also laugh at my limited dusun words cause at one point I remembered repetitively asking her “Monchoi (Good)? Andi monchoi (No good)?” while pointing at random things around her. • • • #family #life #reminiscing #grandma #dusun #brunei #kamponglife #memories

3 days left to score a 15% discount (+additional 5% if you let them know DJ Ron referred you!) when you get your car coated by the good folks at @auto.artisan. The discount applies to ANY of their coating packages. Personally, I’d recommend their Kenzo IGL Coating. ✨ Legit impressed with the outcome of my car. Thanks for the pics, @autoartisan.atwork! • • • #lexusis300fsport #lexus #experienceamazing #autoartisan #cars #autodetailing #kenzo #iglcoatings #iglkenzo #cleancar #carcoating #brunei #bruneicars #ceramiccoating #bruneibusiness

While in the process of getting my car, I’ve been doing a lot of research on car coating, comparing prices and reading reviews on a few car detailers in Brunei. Happened to come across a few recommendations for @auto.artisan online and decide to check them out. After a few DM exchanges with George, I decided to send my car over to get it protected with their flagship Kenzo IGL coating. No regrets. • @auto.artisan is currently having a 15% promotion off ALL their coating packages. But guess what? If you tell them DJ Ron brought you to to them, you’ll get an additional 5% on top of their 15%. That’s a total of 20% off ANY of their coating packages. On top of that, you’ll also get 5 FREE maintenance washes with them after. • And given that now we’re in a monsoon period, I have less worries with my car being dirty after the rain and still looking sparkly clean. Amazing customer service by the team, top notch product and now with some pretty awesome promotion going on, why not give your car a little TLC? Check them out at Spg 175, Jalan Telanai (located next to The Box). • • • #cardetailing #carcoating #kenzo #iglcoatings #lexus #experienceamazing #is300Fsport #cleancar #brunei #igpromote #supportlocal #bruneibusiness

Story time. Earlier this week, I was admitted to RIPAS after experiencing chest pain which have been lingering around for a couple of days. Initially went to a private clinic to get it checked out and was recommended to do a treadmill ECG test by the doctor where upon completion, he referred me to emergency dept for “further checks”. Cue the panic. Underwent more ECG tests, blood test, echocardiogram scan and CT scan during my 3 days stay and thankfully, the results all came back negative for any signs of heart disease / heart attack. Was however given medication for high cholesterol & acid reflux. • Prior to my clinic visit, I became increasingly paranoid and did a lot of Google searches on heart attack symptoms which further added the paranoia, anxiety and worry to my already stressed out situation. Ironically, even after being released, I’m still constantly Google searching on other possibilities of what caused my random chest pain and sudden diagnosis of acid reflux when I’ve never had it before. My high cholesterol was a no brainer because...fat. • And last night I found my answer (again after more Google searching). Stress. I never thought stress could affect me physically but during the week when i randomly experienced the sudden chest pain, anxiety & panic attack, I was running on a lot of caffeine, covering a lot more shifts than the usual to make up for a lost gig, sleep deprived, worrying on an essay that was due and anxious with my finances after splurging on a new car. I thought I was ok but my body clearly was not. And finally, everything just took its toll. • So here I am, self reflecting, grateful to be able to get out of the hospital after spending 3 days surrounded by people who are in a more serious state of health. This week was a hard lesson learnt for neglecting rest, for being money driven, for not exercising and for not taking care of my own mental and physical health. Please take care of your health people! Much thanks to the doctors & nurses at RIPAS A&E & Ward 3 for taking good care of me. • • #stressisreal #timeout #restisnotfortheweak #mentalhealth #stress #chestpain #healthmatters #anxiety #panicattack #healthiswealth #Brunei
