The 12th and final month of the year in our modern-day Gregorian Calendar. However, did you know it was originally the 10th month of the Roman calendar until 153 BC. Hence, December comes from the Latin word decem, meaning “ten”. Later, the months of January and February were created out of the monthless period and added to the beginning of the calendar, but December retained its name.
Born in December are considered special, according to science. They are either Sagittarius or Capricorn. Sagittarians are known to be extremely generous, idealistic, and downright hilarious.
Five (5) scientifically proven benefits of being born during the holiday season: –
On behalf of SilverHairsClub – we would like to wish those SHCians born to this month a wonderful HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

Safe things to do on Halloween at home:-
Many more ideas you can think of to interact with your grandchildren.
We need to slow down current community transmission which have doubled or tripled over the past weeks. Do take extra precautions to safeguard the wellbeing of our seniors as well as juniors and to seek medical attention immediately if they are unwell.
Just stay in on Halloween, let’s work together to help stop the spread of coronavirus and protect our family.

Though limitations might mean a toned-down National Day this year, there are still a variety of ways we can celebrate and show our national pride at home, be it virtual and some gathering amongst families.
However, do try to minimize the numbers in group outings and also try to keep to the restrictions set to avoid potential exposure to the virus.
For gatherings with closed ones at home – most F&B Outlets can only open for takeaway and/or delivery during this period and as for dining-in do look out for the latest announcement.
Let your fingers do the walking and explore how you can bring NDP nearer to you. Click on the link to discover more… be it, to catch the moments in person or through live broadcasts over our coloured gogglebox and online platforms – a list of activities to be engaged through out your day.

Those born in August are either Leos or Virgos. They are very strong people, physically and mentally, undeniably strong-willed, confident and some says proud… Thanks to the combination of 2 great sets of personality traits.
What kind of person is your LEO friend? A passionate, warm-hearted, humorous and cheerful individual fun to be with – this “King of the Jungle” rules with self-confidence, dominant and irresistible…
Virgoans, on the other hand, do have appealing personality traits – explicitly, organized, precise and detailed-oriented. They are dependable and also practical people. They are charismatic too but theirs is a quiet charisma.
Some said to be arrogant yet humble. Straightforward and honest – they are friends who will never sugarcoat anything and only choose those worthies of their time. And if they love you, they really do and will give you all they have.
If you have any friends in mind who fit the August bill, please do wish them a wonderful birthday month.
On behalf of SilverHairsClub – we’d like to wish all the August babies an amazing month.
PS – do drop a line or 2 to all who are celebrating their annual natal day…

Those born in July are either Cancer (June 21 – July 22), a symbol of Crab OR Leo (July 23 – Aug 22), a symbol of Lion…
True or False
A lady born in July is noble, very timid and occasionally stingy. She is good at cooking. A one in a million lady – not open to criticism – for sure you don’t really want to get near because she won’t take it.
July-born man seems to wear a frown on his forehead. Quite introverted and is indeed a family guy. Loves art and painting. Not someone whom you will consider very generous or let’s just say he is a big fan of money.
On behalf of SilverHairsClub – we’d like to wish all the July babies an amazing month.
PS – do drop a line or 2 to all who are celebrating their birthday month…HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Ever since I am being appointed as SHC Admin in the SilverHairsClub.Com, I do have throngs of members speaking ill of me, not only in their circle of groups / one to one verbal n msg / etc… just to mention a few.
These inconsiderate beings who have nothing better to do with their spare time but rather spike / malign / defame / criticize about others.
Before going forward to do all these – take a look at yourself in the mirror – are you the Mr n Ms Perfect – if not, refrain from doing so – coz such ill ions in our human body will only do more harm to us causing anxiety, irritability, breathing difficulty and again just to name a few.
Majority of SHCians are half-century-old. What do we gain out of it by maliciously, viciously spiking at others? I, for sure, gain nothing out of being SHC Admin, this is a voluntary role which I believe no one loves to suck on it. But if anyone is interested, he or she is most welcome to take over any time.
What prompt me to write this post? Coz time and time again, I do receive such hateful remarks and maybe who knows my ancestor might have provoked theirs…. Hahahaha…. And this is my payback time? Don’t forget this old saying…. “What goes around comes around?”
I would truly love to hear more honest feedback from this post… all comments are welcome. Thank you.

This week session [05 June 2021] is hosted by Ms Josephine Wong – another one of our SHC foodie cum private chef. Went to SHATEC to build her foundation… who has an ardent interest in food – eats not only out of hunger but also as a hobby – someone who enjoys cooking for family and pleasure.
This day, she shares with us her passion…
I am sure we do have many more like-minded SHCians who are very good in cooking. Food is one of the most powerful connective tools we have. To build our bonds over a meal – FOOD indeed is a shared cultural product.
Do come forward to host and share with us what your family and friends like most.

Born in the 6th month of the year, JuneBs are known to be social butterflies because of their outgoing, charismatic, charming and creative traits… even though they can be more than a handful at times due to their extremely inquisitive and childlike optimistic nature. They are great communicators and can easily attracts everyone’s attention. Sensitive and caring towards other’s feelings.
The month in which you were born fall under the sign of Gemini, can reveal a lot more than you think about who you are as a person both on the inside and on the outside. June’s birthstone is a pearl, which represents innocence and purity. Often talkative, they enjoy debating and getting into deep conversations where they can exercise their active minds.
On behalf of SilverHairsClub – we’d like to wish all the June babies an amazing month.
PS – do drop a line or 2 to all who are celebrating their birthday month…
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
