Aylanah

I am a professional musician/vocalist (www.aqmusic.com), a graphic designer, digital photographer, blogger, painter and dreamer. I am a wife, daughter, sister, aunt, godmother, friend and coworker. This is what I am today...what shall I be tomorrow?

Smellies: rose, lemon, green tea, geranium, mint, peach, and pear. I'm not much of a fan of patchouli, vanilla, heavy florals or "powdery" scents.

Feelies: I am very tactile, so I love things that feel interesting.

Yummies: I'm in love with sweets, dark and milk chocolate, coffee, tea, chai, boba tea, japanese foods and popcorn! Flavors that make me happy include cranberry, chocolate, mint, cinnamon (think Hot Tamales!), mango, ginger, lemon, lime, rose, violet, peach, strawberry and green tea.

Eye candy: I appreciate good design and layout, fine art (pre-raphaelite is my fave!), asiana, mixed media, and photos.
