@Sijiemaimai Opening 15 June 2018


Am extremely thankful and blessed for everything He bestowed upon me and my family. 

Am also thankful for the ordeals and tests He put us through the past years ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿคฆ๐Ÿ˜‚ I only pray that if He has plans for us to go through the next round, can lenient abit? ๐Ÿ˜‚ Can cham xiong have mercy abit? ๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ˜‚

Although many tears were shed but the family bond became stronger. Friends who rendered help during times of emotional distress are recognized. 

Strangers who continued to trust, spend time to write their words of encouragement is greatly appreciated by all of us ๐Ÿ˜ญ Thank you... 

Strangers who contributed in putting us down, thank you too. Honestly, it was anger during the first year, sadness at the 2nd. 3rd year we were somehow immune. 

We encourage each other on a daily basis at the same time we chose to work harder. As we realized, anger or sadness dont bring us anywhere. It doesn't benefit anyone at all. 

But instead having these emotions outburst is bound to be the cause of more destruction. More destruction to us and our family. In a fit of anger, we might also be causing hurt to innocent family members of the other party unknowingly. 

Many years ago, a friend shared his true life encounter with me. He used to be actively involved in gang fights during his youth days. During fights, all in their mind is to win the fight and in order to win the fight every fist they throw at their opponent has to be the hardest and most damaging blow.

In short, all in their mind is to win the fight then all glory will goes to him and his gang. Indeed, they won most fights to their last fight..... They still won their last fight. But, that fight left a great impact to him and his friends. He and his friends have never hoped and prayed so hard for their opponent to be alive.  

He told me after that fight, they saw their opponent lying motionless on the ground with blood covered. They began to realized the damages they had caused, after their fit of anger went off. Everyone in his gang including himself were terrified. 

They were arrested and charge to be prosecuted would be changed to murder if the injured were to passed away during his treatment in the ICU. Not only that, the injured is the only child in the family. Needless to say, his parents were devastated...

His friend and him prayed so hard for one same thing which is, that person to be alive. 

Few weeks passed, news came to be positive the injured gotten better. They were so relieved.. Thereafter he realized a lot. The meaning of life, choices and consequences and the past mistakes he made. 

After serving the consequences on the choice he made, he is one of the goodest person when I know him. 

This story of his is a reminder to myself and if you see it, his story may be applied to many scenarios not just fighting. 

We have choices to make on issues and problems coming to us. We can chose our speech and our choice of words. But before we make our choice / actions, we might want to give it some thoughts, if what we does, say or write is righteous? 

Are they the truth? Will our actions or retaliation in any form be causing hurt to others where their family members at home love them like how your family love you too. They have children at home loving them, counting on them to survive. 

Causing hurt to them is as good as inflicting pain to their family members. 

If my friend didnt realize his past doings were wrong, he might still be part of causing hurt to more people... 

Am no saint either. Dealing with devil temptations everyday too. So, will have to also consistently remind myself to restraint from actions which may be causing hurt to others. 

Today am thankful for having a closely bond family, doting husband, 4 kind children, healthy parents and in laws (current and ex), bunch of wonderful people at work, supportive superior, inspiring mentors, true friends, loving neighbors, awesome followers who I dont know but they are all nice people taking time to write to me and many wonderful things and people in my life now. 

Thank you for still staying with us when others are in doubt of us. Encourage us when others put us down. Speaking up for us when we were maligned by many. 

However I still wish to remind, actually there is no need to retaliate. For time is already a good retaliating weapon so long we have a clear conscience.

The recent episode I've received some private messages. Scoldings and hurling of extremely harsh words. Initially thought why would there be people writing such comments. I cannot comprehend where are they coming from and what kind of human behind the screen. Then I thought again, never mind. They don't know me that's why. So dont  worry ya. Not at all affected nor angry.

One thing for sure is, the lady the family once know is not an evil person. But in fact a loyal person to be friends with. Moreover there is no ๆทฑไป‡ๅคงๆจ at all to begin with. Keep thinking about the good points and good things people do to us. When LT needed help, she came. Readily helped with the ribbons making and stuff. So really, am really cool when I think of this hehe

Everyone and everything were really great back then. Now too, just how willingly are we prepared to forget and forgive.

The matter is past tense. Let go and calm down. Impact is already done and there. Some lost money, some lost friends, but whatever is it, we stay focus don't lose ourselves. Don't lose true people in our life. Moving on is the main focus.

Talk about true people. I am blessed that there are a few in my life. And am not gonna lose them no matter what. I hold on tight to them machiam super glue I dont care. Like this one of them, Jewel. Her nickname is Xiao Bitch. Know Xiao Bitch for 4 years only. But our bond grew stronger each time especially after our argument/quarrel haha! Really!

We confronted each other a few times. lols but we always straighten things out. There was once I misunderstood her because of other's sowing discord between us. So here and there I think there were about 3 times we argued within the 4 years. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Xiao Bitch turned up at my shop about 7pm... She went to buy flowers then arrange a table arrangement for me all by herself! ๐Ÿ˜ญ 

Must be either she no life or I too good and she love me too much. I think is the latter ๐Ÿ˜‚  See how beautifully the arrangement is done! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ Awwwwww......


Doo this is my Xiao Bitch. Don't see her smile sweet sweet hor. 
She is a POWERFUL Marketing Manager! 

Wo hen love ta.... Nobody can sow discord between us anymore. 


And..... Another baobei of mine. Ah Jazz... If my ah lao dont want me or next time we two old already our kids don't want us then we two will look after each other till we old... 
 

Ah Jazz.... I lub you so much.... Thank you for coming into me and my family life. Please dont be too close to my sisters, because you are my friend first. Dont forget k. ๐Ÿ˜‚ Yes I am #childishidiot and so?

This Jazz, everything she thinks and do all are either for others, her husband and children... Never for herself... Her husband is truly one lucky man to have married her. 

The man and friend I love.

She is beautiful inside out. No amount of words can describe how much I love this women. Whenever am feeling upset over anything, her advice is smoothing.. I confide in her on almost everything. I meant really is everything ๐Ÿ™ˆ  Until many times she "Eh, too much details" 

Now even my tomboy sisters love her. I said she is my friend ONLY. Cant you all understand? And these two TBs dont know why nowadays huan xiong. Keep wearing flowery shirt.

Jazz, last but not least, this is to remind you again please go and check your back and keep me updated. Love yourself more please I beg you ๐Ÿ™ We love you so much so please love yourself too.

The two men who always got my back... Love them so much... You must have wonder why papa cutting the ribbon with us. Here you go,

The first bag, I was short of 2k after Teng case and all previous issues that happened. I told him it's a pity cos that bag is worth to invest because it's obsolete in store.. And no where is selling it. Not even prelove shops. Trusting me as usual, he immediately pass me the sum. 

Well, as usual too. I didnt disappoint him. The bag was sold the next day. Although I didnt earn much. But knowing someone trust you is good enough. That was the first bag I sold. The nice lady got it at a very good price and she is happy so do I.

And this is why I told papa, he must cut ribbon with me. He was so happy and excited! Dug out the shirt, pants and shoes when he wore for Teng's wedding many years ago hahaha!

Stupid sisters keep laughing at him. I hugged papa that day. Told him thank you. Thank you for trusting me all this while. SJMM belongs to him.

My choice to get married the second time.
My choice to start working since 13 years old.
My choice to buy a 5 room flat.
My choice to quit from a high salaried job to start SJMM.
My choice to give birth x 4 times.

I am nothing without papa's trust and support. Perhaps I could have died long ago...

Not only papa. I have a whole gang behind me!

Curรฉl Aging Care Series



So happy when Curรฉl Singapore sent me their NEW Aging Care Series products… ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ 
Cos I saw and bought them during the previous trip in Japan. They are really good and `I regretted so much that time WHY I DIDN’T BUY BACK 10 CARTONS!๐Ÿ˜ญ

Before I tried the Curรฉl Aging Care Series for myself, whoever talk about numeric ‘40’ makes me go crazy. Yes, I am super sensitive about numeric ‘40’ Don’t try ok. Hui si ren de. ๐Ÿคฃ Lolols.

In this post contains some photos which I think quite a chio when I was in Japan using the Aging Care Series.

First day in Japan without Curรฉl. Can see the lines? Haven't raise my brows have already kns.๐Ÿ™„

A happier me with my hub on my 3rd day of using the Curรฉl Aging Care Series ๐Ÿ˜ 
Hahaha pardon me hor. I is very lub my ah lao please bear with me for not feeling shy about it.



This at Japan Haneda Airport on our way home! Don’t ask me why so chio, I also don’t know why a 38 years old auntie like me still look like 25? ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿคฃ

Curรฉl Aging Care Series got me looking like 25 again!
๐Ÿ˜ญ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™๐Ÿ™
 


Then after I used up the bottle I didn’t continue as Singapore still can’t find them yet. After about 4 months we went to China in Feb. It was so cold and ma face almost dried up chaota like that?๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ™ˆ

After my 2 weeks long trip back to China with hubs and the girls, I can’t help but to notice visible fine lines and how my skin starts to dry up so easily. It got me questioning that we can’t defy the signs of aging and with my skin slightly on the sensitive side, on top of it my schedule is fully booked, unable to schedule the time to go to my usual skin treatment center..

Until I received information and these from Curรฉl Singapore that they are launching the Aging Care range in Singapore! Sooo happy hearing that! You all must go and buy and try ah!๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘

See ah! CurรฉlSG is forever this sweet to me… Am thankful and love them so much for their kind gesture… Cos their products are always amazingly thoughtful to ladies, catering to my needs, awesomely great products at affordable price. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜

The New Curรฉl Aging Series is the perfect remedy to kick-start my skin restoration journey! 



The Aging Care Series helps to moisturize skin with Ceramide care and it’s been clinically tested to make fine wrinkles from dryness less visible in just 8 weeks!


Dry sensitive skin lacks an essential ingredient called Ceramide and skin becomes more susceptible to get fine and wrinkles due to the dryness. Such skin condition also tends to get faint inflammation and this causes skin to lose its elasticity as well.

The Ceramide Care in Curรฉl Aging Care locks in moisture and improves skin’s barrier function so fine line and wrinkles are less visible! ❤️

Alantoin and Dolabrata extract help to control faint inflammation of the skin,, while Ginger Extract improves skin’s elasticity.
 
Its low stimulus formula is suitable for dry sensitive skin and most importantly, it is free of fragrance, colorant and alcohol and is also allergy tested. Something that I am extremely particular about given that my skin is scaled towards the sensitive side.

The package is a 2-step aging care for daily use, quick, simple and fuss-free for application. 
Step 1 is a Moisture Lotion that helps to lock in skin’s moisture to prevent moisture loss and keep it elastic, firm and supple. 

Step 2: You can then select between a Gel Cream (for dry skin) or Cream (for very dry skin). I personally chose the Gel Cream as the texture was a light moisturizing gel. 

It is hydrating to the skin and does not feel heavy and oily which is pretty common in anti-aging skin care. The Gel Cream is formulated like a serum, it spreads easily over skin to form a moisturizing veil to prevent moisture loss. It also contains moisturizing and firming agents to firm up skin, even on delicate areas. 
 
 



I particularly feel that the moisture is locked in and Curรฉl Aging Care Series has helped my skin to regain the dewiness and elasticity. All thanks to Curรฉl, my face now feels dewy and bouncy. ๐Ÿ˜


Now I can head to work confidently regardless how close up my colleagues sneak up on me or even enjoying afternoon tea sessions and take selfies without worrying about the fine lines. ๐Ÿ˜Š



Even without make up, I take selfies at @CerealCitizen cafรฉ beautifully I think? ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜…


Curรฉl is now giving away the new Aging Care samples to all readers, simply fill up the form http://bit.ly/curelagingcare and try out the age-defying product. 

They are now exclusively available at selected Watsons outlets!
 




Get yours now and let’s age gracefully!
