Whoohoo... We won in Ladies Bowling Champion

As per the tittle stated... Whoohoo... We won the Bowling Champion.
But frankly speaking, we are not expert in it.
Don't expect me to hit like 200pts per game... if so, I will start changing my job to be full time bowler. (haha)

But getting to Champion really need to put in some effort. Especially I'm the lousy type that don't even know how to walk and throw properly.
Strike and spare is usually by my lady luck of the day. Imagine the points I get can get as low as 85pts/game... haha then you shall know where my standard is.

Our first training for team selection

Enjoying our 2nd training session

The first training session, our WEC was so enthusiastic that we would like to practice 3 games.
By the time i start the 2nd game, my back and tight start to cramp and walk like an old lady.
This is really a tough sport for me, but after getting the hang of it, I'm choosen to represent our team base on overall scoring I got forth in place.

Getting a place in it seems to be a nightmare for me as that mean I'm the lousiest in the team which may drag my whole team down. So secretly I ask hubby to guide me one night, and he start shaking his head... I can't be that bad right.

Finally the actual day arrive and I start to feel the pressure especially my team leader is determine to win the champion. Oh gosh, I hope i wont pull the team overall points down.

Every ball throw I need to take a deep breathe and focus really hard on it.... and tada.... I make it.
Me and my leader had the same top score in our team and overall we are individual 2nd placing.
With that, our team had make to the team champion which make me finally relax.

When we determine to do something, focus on it, and we sure can make it.

If there's a will, there's a way

Okay this dinner is not only the usual DND style where you will go there eat and run off.

We are doing good deed at the same time.

Before the Dinner, if you notice my earlier post, we have been busy decorating the teddy bears so that we are able to put up the bear for adoption. All $$ that are been collected will go to the HIV children where it will help them.

Of course, this round we had also set a target of 1240 decorated bears to be put in the Singapore Book of Record.

Ai Kwan & I

The event start rolling off by having a native dance.

Everyone was so excited about it. It was really grand one and the food was rather delicious.

Games were play and I got to have pictures with Mr Yam Ah Mee too.

Anyway, the most excitement for us was to listen to the award winning bear... wondering are our bears able to win a position out. With 1240 bears, where it needs to stand out is not really easy.

And finally, when come to the award for the most sporty bear..... Hooray, our skiing bear won the 3rd place.

Is that nice???

Super enjoy during the dinner as we had lots of fun and chat. really wish to join again next year. :)

Early celebration for Christmas

To prepare for the gift.. I look high n low for it and finally bought a LILO n Stitch tissue dispenser.

The moment we came in, everyone is been issue a Christmas hat or clip... I got myself a pinkish reindeer horn clip.

So before starting out our meeting... As usual we had fabulous food.. Especially today. Turkey, log cakes, BBQ chicken wings, sushi etc

Finally after our serious meeting, we had our gift exchange by drawing lots...

So look at what I got.. Cute kitty pouch from Ai Kuan. Love it to max..

Also this round I also got present from Adeline, my chairman. It is a nice red wristlet and a coin pouch.. Well useful and is time that I should be more organize.

Well I seems to start blending into the group... Love it.

She Can Have It All

Woke up early in this morning, and it is super unlike me to wake early on a Saturday.
But today is an exciting day to attend a women seminar call " She Can Have It All".

The event was held at Grand Hyatt Hotel, I'm just exciting what it going to be and will I get to know more people? Well dress up, and I finally got there on time at 8.30am. Phew...

I manage to get my register done fast and there were goodies bag too. As soon as I had finish my registration I get to buffet counter to had my breakfast and looking out for familiar faces. It was not long where I see Adeline our WEC chairman and finally I met my same member Kimberly. She was super friendly and it just make me feel more comfortable to blend into this seminar. We get to know more people from the seminar where they are from different CC representative.

That my goodies bag

Inside is what we are getting

I came to know this lady call Christine, I just can't stop looking at her. Okay, I need to clarify, I'm not a lesbian. She got the charisma and the super career woman look that make me attract to look at her more. Thought we are sitting in the same table, it was unfortunately that I never get to know her more. Luckily before I left, I manage to get her Facebook account. Sound like a stalker... hehe.

The one in center is Christine

Our Guest of Honour Dr Amy Khor

Finally the event start, first speaker we had on stage is the guest of honour Dr Amy Khor. A successful lady that speak how she juggle her life and came to this Minister role. She's really a friendly person and look so cute with her petite size.

And finally after her speech, WIN council officially launch the first women network website in Singapore ( http://www.ladiesnetwork.org.sg/) It is a website where all ladies are able to share their thoughts, problem, advise, healthy and beauty tips. All Ladies are free to join this network.

A snapshot of the website

The next speaker we had up on stage is Ms Janet Ang, IBM managing director for Singapore. My idea for her is a successful career woman at the same time is able to take care of her family. Really a good speaker as she encourage ladies to choose the pursue the life we want. Ladies is able to handle both career and family well. She give us a guide to say what is priority in life. Many young ladies thought that after marriage with kids it is hard to excel in work due to housework, taking care of kids etc. But to her, everyone had the same 24hr. To her waking up early morning 5am and start her day from work to family till 12am before she nites off is what she did to handle both family and work well. She don't feel is a chore and hectic life.
This really inspire me (a newly wed) I can do it.

Enjoying my tea break while listening to talk

Next we had Jacelyn Tay, former mediacorp actress. She was rather been open and talk about her bankruptcy to her health problem earlier days. To many people, bankruptcy may sound like end of their world, but it is how we bravely face it and walk out that make us a successful person. Her hectic life in the past had causes her to have chronic fatigue where she will faint up to 5 times a day. And this is where she start to take care of her health. What come more important than our precious health. ( okay I think i really need to buck up on this area)

All we need to do is eat healthier, excerise abit and that is all you need been healthy.
But lazy and greedy woman like me feel really hard. How can I miss all the nice foodies in the world. Maybe I should start work out before I reach 0.1tonne haha.

Frankly speaking, I feel this seminar is really good as it keep you been inspire and encouraging as in Ladies can have both career and family working well. As ladies are born to be multi-task,doesn't we? In normal days, we are able to hold on to the phone chatting while cooking or doing nail polishing, and when our pets or someone irritate you, we are still able to sense it and scolding them while doing so many things. So we as the ladies is the mighty one.. Hahaha

Anyway, before the seminar end, they had an lucky draw, Kimberly, Christine & I were lucky enough to win it. Our luck is there got lots of Original Source Shower gel. guess for the next 1year I do not need to buy shower gel.

So just to flood my blog with some of my camwhore pictures...

Me and Kimberly

And finally, thanks to the speakers of the day, they really give a good speech and inspire many of the young ladies out there.

Joining the WECs

Yesterday got a call up from the Admiralty Garden CC...
Hooray, I finally received their call and able to join the Woman Executive's Club (WEC).

Super excited and wondering what do they usually do.

If you are wondering what is WECs, FYI, it just a interest groups that let the community join together and have fun together. It is a volunteer works that serve the community.
So wondering why I join?? Hmmm want to get to know more people and is time to pay back to the society.
I feel at this moment I'm ready to step out this move.

Yesterday was my 1st meeting with them... the ladies there are friendly and awesome.
Please they are not those simple aunties... they are just like regular executives workers with passion to contribute too.
I was amaze by the things that they are doing. Everyone of them will conduct short class for the community to have fun. I still can remember Penny, who will be teaching people to make jewellery and handle the mahjong club.

There are few more amazing people that spend their time doing mentorship for those students that need more care.

They are also sharing their secret receipt in the upcoming Yummy Yummy event this saturday.

This club is not only just doing work, they be having fun coming Nov at Bangkok to have a retreat, enjoy themselves as a group and build up their bonding.

So glad that I'm able to join and hopefully I'm able to mingle with them well.

Thumbs Up for the ladies... They are just super duper
