Children's Home Visit

This is my first time going to a home visit. This is our another client servicing event. Christine and Peggy joined this round.. Think they enjoyed themselves too..

Just goto know that actually sg dun have orphanage. The home is for kids who's parents are unable to take care of them (ie,single mum, parent in prison etc).

We had sandwich competition. I'm quite surprise the kids are quite creative and they enjoy the session.

~ Must be appreciative of what you have

Money not enuf 2

Watched "money not enuf 2" yesterday.. I've always supported liang zhi qiang's movie cos its very singaporean style-unique "flavour"..
I love the show very much, cos its SUPER MEANINGFUL.
It definitely makes me reflect alot about the facts & realism of life, relationships and money.
My tears cant help but keep flowing down when its showing old mother being thrown around like a ball (this is a VERY REAL scenario in this society). Its really very touching and definitely very educational.
Most important lesson i feel is the attitude of children towards their elder parents when they become old..
"r they becoming a nuisance?"
Perfect 10 for the storyline!!!
MUST WATCH..

*Jomei's Food for Thot*
~ Alot of unhappiness can be prevented when one has money. Must earn more money and save up the money!.
~ If u want your kids to treat u well, set gd example & treat ur parents well.
~ If can, dun ever put parents into old folks home. Employ a home nurse instead. (arghh $$ again)

Recall.....
1) Who keep asking questions in almost everything and anything they come across? "why" "who" "what" "How" "where"... arggg....
2) Who can come up with 10s or 20s or even more justifiable/unjustifiable reasons jus to wana buy the things they want?
3) Who is not afraid of rejections and do not bother about social perception of them?

Kids!!!!


*Jomei's Food for Thot*
~ Newbies always have the "wana learn" attitude and are adaptable to changes. Old birds are usually reluctant to changes and have decreasing learning attitude.. that's why I must always have the newbies mentality and positive learning attitude-jus like a kid!
