Educational yet Disgusting Clip

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.

*Jomei's Food for Thot*

~ 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)

Who is the best Salesperson?

Came across an article asking who is the best salesperson.
Interesting answer oh, so wana share with u all...
Who do u think?

Politicians?
Doctors?
Financial Consultants? (Jomei? haha)
Ministers?
Lawyers?
CEOs?
.

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!

Jomei's origin

Happen to come across a site that shows the meaning of my name.
I rem in pri sch, i used to call myself "selina". Then in Sec sch-"iris".
Now i'm "Jomei" & I LOVE MY NAME cos its unique.
Its originated from my dialet name-Loh Joo Mui.. somehow i twist n turn n make it to "Jomei". Has been using it since JC time.
All along, i thot that this is my own created name.
So surprised that this is actually a Jap Boy boy name! haha
It means "Spread Light" in japanese.
The 34th Emperor of Japan is called Emperor Jomei. haha..
I think i really spread "light" & happiness to frs around me. :)

Addicted to this show now

I'm not a Korean show lover-cos of the cry cry scenes, slow motion plot n die of illness etc. Happen to come across this show-"The Man Of The Vineyard". And I LIKE IT. The leading actress is one that stars in "Goong" n "Coffee Prince". This show is the most interesting one. Chk out youtube ba..

Dubai Desert Ride Experience

Chk out this desert trip video in Dubai in May this yr. FUN!
look out for the 3rd second of the video.. haha.. we are coming down from a very steep slope as seen at the ending of the video.

Wow more people buying

Remember i mentioned i helped my mum claim $100,000 for cancer... suddenly, her sisters (40-50+) came looking for me for plan.. On top of that, i can move on to help their families to look into their plannings too. This is a happy working referral business model oh :)
I even top up my own protection recently, cos scared not enough money.. keke
I realise something very realistic, as a person reach 45-50+, about 50% of people will have some health condition. My relative 50+ jus found out kidney got some stones.. not serious but still not good news ah.. Even wana buy plan for her also got problem. I notice these few mths, i've been in n out of hospital sending my relative/mum to n fro hospital for checks.. quite tedious on timing but still have to do it ah... When i'm in hospital, i can see alot of elderly people.. Do remember to treat ur love ones well..

*Jomei's Food for Thot*
~ Dun take good health for granted
~ Start planning when still healthy, dun regret when things become too late.
~ Everything is about priority, if budget very tight, then cut down on other expenses. Protection plan is a must.
~ Lucky i'm in this line-got spending power & flexi timing.

Appreciate family's love-HUG them!

Today is a "make me think" day..
Met up with a client's referral-BL. She shared about her life with me.. she had problems with family members, and is being thrown here n there like a ball.. Few thots came to my mind.
I feel very lucky. Even though my parents divorce since pri sch, I'm really very lucky i still have my aunties and grandma doting me. At least i live in a "cosy and filled with loves" house-grandma's home. I had grandma taking care of my daily essentials and aunt to teach me studies and how to be a proper person.
Sometimes, we take parents and relatives love and concern for granted. Like it should be the way ma. However, some people is jus waiting for family members to treat them nicer and with more respect.

Anyway, BL msg thereafter.. I'm so happy that she trust me.. :)
BL: "I trust JJ so i trust you too. I dont like people to cheat me. So i believe you wont cos you wont force me to buy ex plan. Tks"

*Jomei's Food for thot*
~Treat family members with respect and sincerity.
~Always show ur gratefulness and say "Thank you" to them.
~Hug them if can.. keke

Client Servicing Events

So far we've organised "Prawning" and "Bowling Tornament" this year.

Prawning is definitely FUN, FUn, fun! Its my 1st time prawning too!! (aiyo, 1st time again, jomei so no life).

Client-Stella & Adeleen & me in the pic :)

I thot there's nothing fantastic about catching prawn, BUT, the feeling of pulling up the prawn is ReALLy SHioK man. The prawn's quite strong ah such that i need to use quite abit of strength to pull it up. HAhaa *exciting*.

Chk out the YummY Prawn after being cooked. The 20+ prawns we caught are really juicy and big!

Chk out the bowling tornament too! Client-Terence, Alan & Ann & me. :)

Thank you Sheryn!

Today is a fruitful day! **Happy**
My buddy, YX, and I did telemarketing today.
Called my cutie client-Sheryn's referrals. Managed to make a few appointments from there.
Usually, I'll update her about the results of my calls thereafter.
What surprises me MOST is she msg me additional referral numbers at around 1AM jus now! Really really appreciates her sweetness and thoughtfulness... This really makes my career much easier and meaningful and MOST importantly-HAPPY! ~yeeaaahhhh~

1st Try

keke.. so many 1st time for me.
Today went "Pepper Lunch" for lunch-alone. Have always wanted to try it but hubby n me scared of the smoky smell *smelly smelly*. Tried chicken pepper rice $10+.. Not cheap considering this is jus my normal simple lunch. Price is secondary, I'm more concern about the taste. To my surprise, the rice is above my expectation-VERY NICE ohhhh! **Sizzling hotplate with corns, butter (i think), chicken**
Bought something and eligible to redeem a gift..
Guess wwhhaaattt is it......
haha.. its something cute but not so useful..
