SHC Admin Role – to ASSIST or OVER-RULE

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.

Update on my hospital adventure Jun 2021

I realise that I have been losing energy and feeling breathless last one year. Late last year, TTSH docs advised me to be prepared for water dialysis. Sounds like an exciting adventure and stage of my life.

Last Monday, I was admitted to TTSH for suspected fever and infection. The hospital also drew 2 kg of water making my weight now 72kg, instead of 75kg when I arrived.

Well, today the advice is to start blood dialysis quickly today.

I have been getting queries from members. And in order not to have bits and pieces of information from diff sources, I shall update this Post regularly.

I am fine mentally. SHC will move on, We are making arrangements to plan forward next 5-10 years. I am glad to have very strong support from Jean Lim. And the many members, pioneer and newer, who believe in the SHC objective. Tq.

Individual born in JUNE – What it says about you!

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!

This forum is an online “meeting place” and it is used to engage with others or groups of the same interest gather together so they can discuss or debate, share knowledge and communicate with others about something or provide useful information.  It is like a message board, where members create a POST and can hold conversations in the form of posted messages.

The Club provides a forum for SHCians interested to network with others. Today, session is indeed fruitful.  Terence has arranged it to enable more SHCian to be engaging and create awareness on their current activities.   Based on the recent feedback survey, numerous members do have difficulty in accessing the forum.

Why People Born in MAY Are Totally Unique

Believe it or not…

  • They are considered strong – known for their strength of mind, body and spirit.
  • Tend to be born tinier than those born in other months – some are shorter, lighter and have smaller heads.
  • They are driven to succeed – strong-willed and deeply emotional, possess inborn 6 sense that helps them navigate through life – can be stubborn, but their critical, systematic ways of thinking help them to get stuff done.
  • Often have Wanderlust – restless n curious, always itching to explore the world, bitten by the travel bug, exploration is not simply a distraction but it’s a way of life. They are the last to complain about hectic lifestyles.
  • May-born Parents are the BEST – their kiddos can count themselves among the lucky ones; they are devoted, well-organized, resourceful and creative… Plus point for May-born spouses, both are affectionate and funny.
  • Watch your wallets with May-born people – born in this month are notorious spendthrifts, BUT if they set their minds to save money, they’re also the most committed to doing so.

The 2 zodiac signs associated with this month are Taurus and Gemini.  The practical Taurus can be known by their earthy and realistic ways of living. Gemini has a talkative, abstract, extreme intelligence that flies past – ready to go and do.

On behalf of SilverHairsClub – we would like to wish those SHCians born to this month a wonderful HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

PS – do drop a line or 2 to send them wishes on their birthday month…

Zonal Meeting – Boleh Boleh! In The Clementi Mall

The 7th Zonal meet-up managed to make its way on Friday, 16 April 2021 to Boleh Boleh! located at 3155 Commonwealth Ave West #04-20/22, Singapore 129588.  The session starts from 11am and end slightly after 3.30pm with the 2 EOs at their helms to make sure no one was left out.

We had 11 members signed up and all turned up for this makan and friendship bonding.   We had to split into 2 tables to observe safe distancing measures.  They are:-

  • VincentH – EO
  • ChanKH – Co-EO
  • AnneC
  • ChengWK
  • DollyL
  • FongWC
  • JessieO
  • StellaS
  • MargaretS
  • SherryW
  • EveC

Many interesting discussions on wellness & health, tours & holidays and current activities besides Zonal meet-up, were shared and discussed among members.  I must say that mission accomplished for each and every one especially for me, longing for this catch-up with ex-colleague cum friend of 25years, MargaretS was to no avail till now.

Some of us need to leave by 2pm but both 2 EOs together with Cheng were still chatting while waiting for the remaining members to turn up.

Lastly, kudos to VincentH and ChanKN for their efforts towards this meet-up as well as Cheng for his company, we can see from photos of many smiling or laughing faces.  BTW, do make a guess, where and when will the next Zonal meet-up be?  Or why not give us an option or suggestion and liaise with ChanKN and he will create a future meet-up link…  the continuation will be ongoing and happening again…

Cheers… DollyL

Tennis and Cycling Redux

Having been stuck in Singapore for over a year and unable to pursue my favourtie three S’s (SCUBA diving, sailing, skiing) all of which requires travel, a consolatory fall back for me have been tennis and cycling. SHC used to have a very active tennis group which played regularly at Tanamera and a cycling group that cycled quite often too.

Anybody keen to revive these two groups? We can get together and crank it up.

For tennis I can get courts at Bukit Batok while for cycling, more and more cycling paths are being opened, the latest being the rail corridor to Rail Mall.

What is special about APRIL born?

It is the beginning of the 2nd quarter of the year, known for beautiful spring weather when the Easter bunnies will make an appearance!  A month of the growing season when trees and flowers beginning to bloom.  It is also believed it is named after the Greek Goddess, Aphrodite.  Old English – April.

History of April – How much do you know?

  • April was the 2nd month of the earliest Roman calendar about 700 BC.
  • It is the 4th month of the year in the Gregorian calendar about 450 BC, when it also was given 29 days.
  • 30th day was added during the reform of the calendar undertaken by Julius Caesar in the mid-40s BC, which produced the Julian calendar.

Those born in this month are either an Aries or a Taurus. Both are very different signs to one another – Aries being quite passionate and impulsive, while Taurus is much more stable and down-to-earth.

On behalf of SilverHairsClub – we would like to wish all SHCians April Babies a great

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

2021-03-05 Zonal Meet Up @ Toa Payoh HDB Hub

I would like to take this moment to thank both ChanKN and DollyL to initiate and organize Toa Payoh Zone as the 5th location. It is a food paradise within walking distance.

Original plan to hold it at TPY KouFu was switched to Fork & Spoon at the last hour due to mid-afternoon crowd bombarded mostly by seniors in a matured estate. Both ChanKN and myself were early trying to secure 2 long tables of 8 pax but failed. A quick decision to switch location was made coz I am confident there are afternoon vacant tables there… I quickly rushed over to recce and manage to get 2 long tables by 3:00pm.

After much hiccups, we [3] managed to gather 11 members to join us at Fork & Spoon. The remaining 5 stayed at KouFu and ordered their food instead which is good for us coz it is indeed a big group.  Namely, DavidO n LilianC, AnnieS, SherryW and RichardW.

Photo images of both locations and food ordered showed a successful bonding amongst the members, from initial Koufu to Fork & Spoon and later adjourned to Gourmet Paradise for famous Soon Heng Rojak shows it all.

Meanwhile at Fork & Spoon – we received a SOS call that some of them were unsure of the location. Hence, we took the initiative to go and ferry them here. Though a bit disorganized in the location but am glad we can see smiling faces amongst them gleefully enjoy the remaining hours in deep entertaining discussion on travels, gardening tips and not forgetting SRVouchers on how to redeem it.

I must say to shout out loud or applaud to SherryW, our ardent Zonal fan, who took the effort to join the remaining team at Fork & Spoon.

Overall, this Zonal catch-up bonding is a salute to all participating member who made it happen. Images shows it all as the saying goes, “A picture is worth a thousand words”.

Looking forward to the next bonding…

Chap Goh Mei (YuanXiaoJie) or Lantern Festival

The 15th day marks the first night of the full moon and also the end of Chinese New Year celebration.  It is also known as Lantern Festival Day.  Another reunion dinner for us to celebrate, a customary to have special sweet dumplings called YuanXiao also called TangYuan made of glutinous rice flour stuffed with sugar fillings, symbolizing a family unity and wholeness.

This festive is about rejoicing and cultivating positive relationship between people – friends and families.  Another legend associates with higher beings ‘Ruler of Heaven’ responsible for good fortune, bestowing wealth and good luck.

To some, Chap Goh Mei is known as the Chinese Valentine’s Day – coz long time ago it was the only day that young maidens were allowed to dress up, stroll on the street and went to temples to pray, wishing to bestow a suitable match.  Such believes are still practice to this day…

Let us know how do you celebrate your last day or Chap Goh Mei which falls on Friday, 26 February 2021…
