A Visit to St Joseph Home – Volunteers needed

I hope that some of pioneer members remembered that back in Y2009 on May 1, SHC did organized an charity activity at St Joseph Home.  This year, we hope to organize another entertaining event for these folks staying there to give smiles on their faces.

As Nelly is currently out on a mission trip and will not be back in 2weeks’ time, I am putting up this post on her behalf. 

Date of Visit: 8th May 2011 (Sunday). Time: 9.45am to 12.30pm.

Location: St. Joseph’s Home. 921, Jurong Rd, S’pore 649694. Tel: 62680482. Fax: 62684787.  From Boon Lay Interchange, take Bus 157 and alight 4 bus-stops away at back gate. Those going by car are requested to car-pool due to shortage of parking space; about 8 lots only.

Website: www.stjh.org.sg

It is always a blessing in helping the less fortunate in society.

At this moment, there is nothing more than getting the SHCians to entertain these Residents of St Joseph’s Home with our karaoke singing and/or any kind of performances are also welcome to share with the joy with these Senior on that day.

Like-minded SHCians can come forward to volunteer their time as they had already got a sponsor for the good although thru’ self-collection.  Not sure if extra transport will be needed.

Sad…movies always make you cry…

The year 2010 is coming to an end. So many things have happened that may have an impact in our life. We are thankful for Terence’s foresight in starting this Club. I would like to share  some of the simple thing in live that kept me motivated and striving to add life and vibrancy to Silverhairs Club.

Many have come forward to share their visions and expectancy for this Club and we wish to see more active participation from more member. It takes gut to share your deep feeling and not being afraid of rejection and criticism.

For the whole of this year I can say that this is the best movie I have watched. The title is ‘Aftershock’ ,about the life of a family reelings from a decision a mother make whether to save the son or the daughter. I thought it would be a boring show and almost fall asleep. But as the movies unfolds I could not withhold my tears after tears!

This movies was suggested by Joy and she highly recommended that we watch together. I am not shy of the tears as I believes it help to remove toxins from our life.

It would be good to hear member coming forward to share with us here wat movies or things or events that caused an uplifting of our souls and will be an inspiration to others.

Handicrafts’ Expert : Any1 care to teach!

Hi Handicraft SiFu-Men,
Care to teach those who are interested in handicrafts – Pls come forward to coach those that are willing to learn.  I remembered during those days at the past monthly gatherings, we have some voluntary members that came forward to teach handicrafts.  During those times, we do not have a venue to cater for this kind of events hence at times, it is very difficult organize such events.

These days, we have a venue (MPH Cafe) available for this purpose almost every Saturdays.  Thus, those that are willing to impart their handicrafts to fellow members, pls contact me at dlgummy@hotmail.com so that I can make arrangement to cater for this.

Though handicraft is never my cup of tea cos got clumsy fingers la but I like to watch demonstration ongoing..

Hope to hear from you soon from here… Cheers… Dolly

More Card Tricks – Thomas Lau & Sifu Lim

Hi All SHC Members,
I am sure that for the past couple of weeks, couple of members have learnt from both Thomas and Sifu Lim a trick or 2 in cards.   For this coming Sat, both of you are again come to the Cafe again to impart their knowledge of card tricks.

As spoken with Thomas, he had promised that there will be no repeated tricks every time he come to cafe from this Sat onwards.  However, for those that need extra training on the tricks that have been taught previously but yet to understand fully, both of them will revise them upon request before the new card trick is being taught, i.e. for the 1st hour, both of them will revise the previous trick as requested.

So those interested to learn more about card tricks, start register now.. Registration limited to 15paxs only due to space constraints.  I would appreciate for those attendees to try to be on time as it would be unfair for those early and 1 of the Sifu have to give personal coaching for late comers – Like that, will only encourage more latecomers from time to time lor.. right :)

Class starts from 11am to 2.00pm.

Those coming this Sat are:

  1. Thomas Lau
  2. Sifu Lim
  3. Henry Yip
  4. Debbie Oh
  5. Susan Tan SW
  6. Lawrence Lee
  7. Jessie Lee

This Saturday, 6th Nov 2010, Thomas Lau has again offered to share with us his hobbies in card tricks and paper origami.  Personally, I was impressed with Thomas’s desire to share with others.  He is very entertaining, and I hope some of us can learn from him; even to pick up a new hobby to entertain our children, grandchildren or fellow SHCians.

SHC is an opportunity for SilverHairs; it provides the platform for SHCians to meet but you have to figure out what you want to do with your SilverHairs years.  Picking up arts and crafts is one of them.  You too can share with many quiet and shy SHCians.

Thank you Thomas.  The venue is at the MPH cafe along 63 Robinson Road, from 11 am to 2pm.  When you come in, introduce yourself, bring your own pen and paper, and an unwanted thick papered magazine to fold origami, may a pack of cards.  So  join in the fun.

Dolly Lim will be at the cafe, do get to know her, or let her get to know you too.  Have fun.

Lunch for Opinion – The SG Association for the Deaf

Sorry to inform that this event will be postponed till further notice as while Karen is liaising with them on our proposed event and was told that the school is having exam and will be closed till next year.  Hence, I will be closing this post for further comment.  Thousand apologies… and we will check with them again Y2011 to activiate this event. 

Hi Fellow SHCians,
Couple of weeks back, I was invited by Karen, June to have lunch at the above.  I remembered the cost is around $10 inclusive of GST. 

The purpose of this lunch is provide valuable info for those that service us right from ordering, awareness and quality of food.  U may surprised at their request but pls dont as I m going to explain further.

This group of service staffs are from the SG Association for the Deaf, which the School mission is to assist the Deaf to achieve a better quality of life and to enable them to intergrate and contribute to society for what they have learnt from those volunteers.

The Lunch days and hours available are Mon to Wed, from 12noon to 2pm.  Thurs n Fri are those days that they are required to have their lesson in house.

Both Karen and I are trying to gather around 20paxs for the lunch session on:

Date : 2 Nov 2010, 12noon onwards
Venue: Mountbatten Vacational School, 225 Mountatten Road, Spore 397997
Cost : Around $10 to $12 (Set meal will include soup, main course, coffee/tea and dessert). However ala-carte will be charged differently.

However, for those that are willing to attend this event, kindly be advised that you will need to have alot of patience with the service staffs due to their handicap resulting in slow in ordering, need to verify details maybe a couple of times as well as presentation of food in wrong manner ok, kind understanding would be much appreciated to encourage them.. :)

This place have a very nice ambience and cosy in its own way which I felt that it is a nice way to hv a meet up session for SHCians.

FYI, our 2 SHCians, Kazay (not sure if I got her name spelt correctly, if not, sorry hor) and Billy Loh are volunteers for this Association – Very impressed the way that they are able to communicate with them via sign language – Bravo….

Those interested, pls start register from here:  The registration will automically ended at 20paxs and once committed, pls try your best to attend and not to cancel at the 11th hour as we will need to liaise with the Chef on the total headcount attending in order to avoid wastage of food over-prepared.

  1. Dolly Lim

  3. Sam Goh – need to confirm attendance due to current commitment.

Hope to see more members sign up… Dolly/Karen

You too can pick up card tricks from Thomas Lau

Many of us have always been amused by card tricks.  With a pack of aladdin cards, someone with one year’s practice and effort can easily get the young and the old, eyes focused and glued onto the table, hands and cards.  You too can learn card tricks, and win the hearts of kids and adults.

Today, I joined a small group and met Thomas Lau.  Although he claimed to start learning card tricks a year ago, he was very much an expert, fooling all around him.  Thomas entertains elderly seniors at daycare centres.  He is also a great origami paper folder.  Well, I remembered he said he could perform 150 card tricks.

Thomas volunteers to give a demo of a few card tricks; and he is willing to share with us how some of these tricks are carried out.  Perhaps, if I can learn a few card tricks, I can be an entertainer and maybe make $1000 per month entertaining the young and old.

Thomas will schedule two sessions, each group about 15 pax, on a Saturday, time between 11am and 2pm.  Place and date will be scheduled soon.  Thank you Thomas.

First session:

  • Date:     Saturday 23rd Oct 10
  • Venue:  Cafe inside MPH Book store at Robinson Road.  Nearest MRT is Tanjong Pagar station.

SHC Fleamart – Sat 20 Nov, now changed to Sat 11 Dec 2010

A date has been tentatively set for the next Fleamart, if not most likely, on Sat 20 Nov 2010.  Time is likely from 0900 hrs to 1500 hrs.  Location is not firmed yet.

Members interested to take up a stall are encouraged to take note of this date and time.  If you have items for sale, you may indicate them under this Post.  Pre-orders are also encouraged.  Commercial items or products are not allowed.  So, go ahead, whether new items, old items, used items, sealed and packed edible items.

Any form of sale or advertising outside this Post not accepted, and likely will be deleted.  This is a once or twice a year event where selling is permitted, at the SHC Fleamart.

Where possible, the location will be opened to the public for the sale of products.  However, all stalls will be made available to SHCians only.

Suggestions or ideas welcome.  However, please do not be disappointed if any idea is not taken up.  Have fun.  And, of course, if you raise your hands to offer assistance, I will be most pleased; but again, please do not be disappointed if I do not pick it up.  But, no harm, trying too.

The plan is to concide this Fleamart with the November monthly gathering.

Should we have an agenda for the monthly meeting?

Most of us are glad to be a member at the Silverhairs Club and appreciate what Terence has done in providing a platform for us to meet. So far Terence has suggested and introduce many activities and carry it through in the last few years. As member we are happy to be part of this and look forward to more participation to come.

Is there something we could do or suggest to bring the club to the next level? Out of this Club many smaller groups are formed and they in turn meet up privately and persue their common interest.

The September meeting will be different from what we had previously. Live singing  by Jeffrey Gan on the keyboard and karoeke singing where member brings their own cd wll be the happenings of the day! Board and card games will also be encourage where member can look for other member sharing similar interest.

I would like to see more participation from member, how about meeting up and have a time where various member can share their thought and mission in life, something in line with Toastmaster International. Having our meeting in Han’s may not provide the privacy needed in such sharing by public speaking. We need to find a place more enclosed for such.

We all come from various background, there will be something exciting to share. Having to make comment on the post may be prohibiting as certain topic may be sensitive. When we meet and listen to fellow member share their goals and ideal in life, a certain bond are created.

Volunteers will be ask to share something about their life that  is memorable and enriching. Do you know that I have tried bungee jumping just because I was trying to get someone’s attention. Oh, there are so much to share and talk about.

It may be just meeting up and sharing each other profile and ideal in life. So, fellow member come to this September gathering. I would want to try something out where we allocate a time frame for each of us to speak out and suggest what they want to see happening in this unigue Club! So many thing I would want to share, my life, my passion and motivation in life and of course some of you may want to share too. Let’s hear from you?

Those who have name tag – PLEASE bring along and wear it throughout the event.

When I was about 18 years old, I use to go camping at Changi Beach just behind where the British Army had a Survival School. behind the school, this stretch of beach was quite secluded. Sometimes we would organize Beach Parties there. By about 2 am, after most of the guests have gone home, a few of us guys would go ‘skinny dipping’. The few girls that were still there would pretend not to watch when we strip but after we get into the water they would shout comments at us from the beach.  I still remember 2 comments even up till today.

  • “Beware of the fishes, they might mistaken yours for a big worm”
  • ‘Don’t shake it more than 3 times…….it is call masturbation”

I am organizing our August  monthly meeting at  Palawan Beach, Santosa.  It will be a Beach Party, but we will not go ‘skinny dipping’ because at our age, I think we will look gross. Even the police would not want us in their station. They will put us straight into the lunatic asylum. I know this will not stop some of you from doing it.

My friend who owns Samudar Indian Restaurant at Palawan beach in Santosa has agreed to let us use the Restaurant on Saturday 21st August.  The restaurant has an alfresco dining area and an aircon dining hall. It can accommodate 200 people.  There are showers on the beach in front of the restaurant and changing facilities nearby.

We will start the party at 3pm. You can swim, play with balls, build sand castle or just enjoy the sea breeze. I need volunteers to organize a few beach games. For those who prefer to stay indoor, you can relax and talk or play board games.   At 7 pm we will have Indian Buffet.  The alfresco dining area which is on a wooden deck and the aircon dinning hall are both very suitable for dancing. You can dance anywhere at any time. You can also do it at the beach but we have to organize sound system outside. You can also pretend to be a teenager on your first date and bring a partner to the bush….there are many dark bushes but tissues are not provided. If you want to sing KOK we have to organize our own portable system because the Restaurant have no KOK licence. We leave the Restaurant at 10pm but you can stay at the beach as long as you like.

Public transport to Palawan Beach is by LRT from VIVO City. It cost $3. Those who drive, pay $7 per car regardless of the number of passengers. The buffet would cost $20 per head.  We will provide tit-bits from the collection of $5 each from those who pay after 31st July.  Those of us who are there in the afternoon should at least buy a drink from the Restaurant to help them pay their staff who would serve you.The restaurant would waive corkage charge for alcoholic drinks we bring. But please don’t bring any other outside food or drinks into their Restaurant.

Dress code will be ‘as little as possible’.  Opportunity for you to show your legs, tummy and butts,  if they are still presentable. I will bring some fig leaves for those who want to be like Adam and Eve.

Now I need the following volunteers

  1. Treasurer to collect the $20 $25 from every participant even if you don’t want to eat the buffet.
  2. Bouncer to throw out those who didn’t pay.
  3. Member registration – Irene Poh has volunteered
  4. Many beach game organizers.
  5. A disco King or Queen to organize the dancing and provide the music CD. They do have a sound system in the Restaurant.
  6. A KOK King/Queen to organize the singing.
  7. And of course, as many ‘gilah’ participants as possible to make it fun.
  8. Also new members, you can come fully clothed to make new friends.
  9. Matchmakers to make sure no one is left alone at this party
  10. Me???…….    I oversee lah.  Girls, remember to wear skimpy clothes, so that I have something to see.

Make your payment to Karen Thio POSB Savings Account number 121-86818-0
