Week gone in a flash


I have a issue .. A issue of too many photos and no chance to organize them. So Im blogging while trying to do something about it. 

We started this week with a trip to the  bank which took forever to get something  done. I never knew a hanyu pinyin name on our I/C can cause the banker to have to edit all our records. This is something only my era have to go through , dialect names, birth name, hanyu pinyin!! 

The children came along and we were off to school after our trip. 

I took time out to go to church and like to do it to start my week. Is normally paperwork or church on mondays. 
Monday was the only day I didnt have a workshop scheduled but went to Singapore Jewelfest 2015! Women are made of to wear gems and learning more is an investment in life. This round we learnt on Emeralds and its worth. Guess is time at my age to move on from diamonds and pearls! Signs of wealth moving towards luxurious items I believe. 
We had an opportunity to taste a rare cask of Macallen - Gem of A Legend. My girlfriends had a bottomless pit and her tasting became guzzling hahhaha! It was fun to do silly things at a glamorous event ! 

We became silly doing what we all love to do and thats to take photos on the red carpet! 

On tuesday it was 13 october and I somehow remembered the date. It was related to the miracle of our lady of fatima. Made my way to church again to give thanks! 
I did my work in the car and had to take a selfie. Good sunlight and I needed a break from texting and attempting to organize a crazy month! 

Went to office after sending the kids home and taught the consultants the tricks and secrets of doing a DIY Detox massage.  


Next morning, it was my usual BNI meeting and I won a gift from the referral lucky draw! What a lucky day! 

Went back to pick the kids and had lunch with the principal and vice principal of the children's school at Au Petite Salute. I'm intrigued by the P for her inspiring stories and she is my role model for her leadership qualities! Absolutely admire her! My husband saw my facebook update and was like "only you get the connection to eat lunch with her!" Wahaha! 

That night we learnt how about Creative styling in Mary Kay beauty center! We had guest trainers from Malaysia and they thought us how to make a wow up a level! I am so grateful to have my models who came by to learn and allow me to work on their face! 


After the whole event, the directors stayed back for a meeting! The level of commitment from us are definitely commendable, we only want the best for Mary Kay Singapore! The consultants are so blessed to have our dedication. 

On Thursday, I needed real food man! To replenish and charge up the exhausted body. So I made a trip to Jumbo to have myself a freshly caught steamed fish. Thank goodness for a fellow mummy friend who was nearby and came in to share this goodness with me!  

After driving the kids back, I rushed to Raffles Town Club to do Dinner & Dance for Lee and Lee. I am officially a "clean" singaporean coz I was approved beforehand for screening. All coz PM Lee was attending the event! 

After about 12 faces at the D&D with my team, I went in to teach about colours! My students are a blessed bunch coz they get to discover if they are of warm or cool tones. During this class, I taught them on the colours they can use on their face.



By 10pm that night, I finally answered the call I kept missing the whole day and guess what! I didn't even realized that me the blur blur sotong had left my Macbook Pro in Jumbo!!! Yup after the whole day did I not even know it wasn't with me. Thank goodness for great staff! Well done Sharon from Jumbo Demspey! 

So the next day I was back again! This time round the staff made me put my laptop right in front of me! Hahhha

After school, the children got a treat to go Ikea. As you can tell, I am sort of losing it. My emotional bank account is getting depleted of my time with my children and I had to top it up quickly! My children are my source of energy and I thank god daily for his gifts. 

By 6pm, I was in office teaching an workshop on 15 mins makeup! It was an enjoyable session and totally enjoyed chit chatting with my students. 


At 10pm, we all packed up and decided we needed a friday nightcap. So I drove to Wine Connection, have a great bottle of Malbec Reserve and tapas! Yummy yummy! It was a night for the soul as all 3 of us has been packing our days the last few weeks and on sometimes days like these, we just need to talk. 

By the weekend, I did what I needed to do zzzzzzzzzzz

October week 1

I started this week with a bang! So much accomplished and it feels so good! 

Last week I did a presentation for a grooming seminar for over 200 attendees with live feed to another hall at the ACCA Fair 2015, we had absolutely a great time getting to know the students (both current and ex).  I got feedback from the ex students that their colleagues wear casual clothes to work and some jeans! Think I need to reach out more to educate our corporate staff of proper work attire. Forbes says guys who are groomed gets 9% more and ladies 30 % more! People forget that wealth creation comes from oneself!


It was a great session and we had over 100 and more attendees who signed up for Mary Kay complimentary beauty workshops!!    

On Monday, I sent the kids to school like normal and went in to office to met my 1st 7 day Adventist friend 

I had lunch with my consultant who was like a wilted flower in her new job and "got charged" after we meet coz I was talking to her in human words so she said. Always great to be going around watering people with beautiful hearts! God blesses me like that ! 

On Tuesday, We did our weekly succes meeting and it was a day to recognized our Queens of my unit for their hard work in September!!! Mary Kay has been around for 52 years and this meeting is being carried out in all 35 countries! Our emphasis is always about people and love!

Every Wednesday , I attend BNI - Business Network International at Tower Club! My chapter is the "atas" Every week on this day I sell my business and get referrals ! Text me to come attend and see what people do in the business work! I love my team coz we truly look into making each of us reach our goals. We are super goal-oriented here and great to be around like minded people!!

Usually by Wednesday midday, I am stone *_* coz is a late Tuesday night and an early wed! So normally I will not book any appointment so I can stoned midday just to charge up! 

In the evening, We did beauty makeup workshop for 15!  I never work alone and always ensure my consultants are with me to learn, layering work ensures that I to impart all my success work ethics, winning speeches to my next generation. 

Thursday was basic skincare for 20

Friday's lunch was at iconic Lee & Lee law firm. They are celebrating 60 years and I was informed that Mary Kay is their 1st beauty workshop!! 

 Evening was 26 attendees for Colour workshop
 


Saturday was My REST day that I just did nothing and spoke little coz I was tired of speaking. Hahha nah, it was a day with the family and we did many errands, spent time having great food and pampering my tummy. 

On sunday , I was up early to do volunteer work together with Help Portrait where we go make old folks look amazing so that they can have a family photo where they can keep. I teared a few time looking at how happy some of them were - those who had their whole family turning up. There were those who were sad- coz no one was free to come but had their amazing nurses who accompanied them for their portrait!

Gotta praise the lord for devoted nurses! 




That's my week! Typing from my iphone and nothing went missing! Phew! Then I realized I wore the same top twice in a week! Obviously Im showing signs of steve n mark !!
