Window shopping with the folks

I have dated my folks to go window shopping yesterday.

Fun I will say. It's about catching up and exposing them to new things. But it's also about eating a lot :P

Talk about food, we went to these places... my folks are very happy with all!

1. Lunch East Ocean, Shaw Center
Not a new eating place but first time for us. Highly reommended by my friend whom have high food expectation - Ah Jing (never go wrong!)
Very nice tim sum.
No or minimum MSG - no thirsty feel after eating!

2. Coffee and Oreo CheeseCake for Teabreak at Blue Mountain Cafe, 313@Somerset
That place (previously) was where my folks complaint of birdsh*t during parking. Ha! My folks commented: "if we come here, we will be lost...!"
We were deciding between Ah Kun or Blue Mountain Cafe. Finally go for the 'ang mo' kopi.
Ordered Hazelnut coffee and Epthian Mocha coffee. Nice. The folks like the Hazelnut best.
The Orea CheeseCake came with delighting garnishing... my fave shape.. Heart. Plus point; not too sweet!

I took 5 shoots... all so blue.. dun know why...

3. Dinner at Ootoya, OC.
I always like OC. Long escalators, emptiness... not so good for retailers but good for shoppers like me. Hee! Folks like these features of the mall too.
My folks aren't young but always young at heart and like to have fun. I am proud of them as they are braver than some tourists whom are younger (pondering if they can take the long escalators)
My folks are very satisfied with the food at Ootoya. I think they missed Japan, like I did. They can remember the Japan, Ueno Ootoya that we went...haa...I guess because we waited super long for our food there and then :P
Best order: Hokkaido Kunbo sauce with Katsu Don - Rice is well fraganced with Kunbo sauce, Katsu Don well done!

If you are taking a day off, you might wanna try the above!

Cheers to good family times and food!

Entreprising spirit starts from young

New teaching in the chapter of growing up?

One client, whom is a strong supporter of blogs-shops told  me that she was surprised that the shop owners are same age as her daughter (abround 16-19 years old). She felt the relationship was amazing!

This become a connection with her daughter. She got her a domain name and blogspot.com... kinda got her a virtual shopfront. For merchanise, her daughter will have to do it herself. So is the marketing part. She also advocated the importance of owning business as a paper, no longer secure you a job.

i do not know if this is a norm, but I felt really nice when she told me about this. Different from other parents, she took a step further to teach her daughter to be self sufficient by running the business. No matter what comes out of it, the daughter will benefits much, and this becomes a bridge between them. I forsee that it will be a fun experience.

In this world where technology domains (to a certain extent), the so called generation gap, has been narrowed :)

Welcome New Decade 2010

Ant and myself usher into 2010 in our orange car.... how come? In a car jams to watch fireworks...hee!

This year, we hope that its a great one for us, moving onto our plan without much hassle as a family goal.

Natural healing is always on top of Skin Needs objective. Therefore, this new year, I have scheduled to launch more natural healing method and products :)

Slimming in a breeze:
In 1st Qtr of this year, debute my new slimming method (still thinking of the name)! I have been studying about this method for the past few months. And having a sample group of my clients and of course, myself trying out and twitting it to make it best effectively. What makes me more excited is in this seasons of feasting, I never put on weight! Yes! What's more to you wish for! Tempting right? Stay tune!

Take only organic, Use only organic:
Continue to be a strong believer of natural and organic, I will like to introduce Potpots organic skin care to more people and customers :)
Another thing I wish to do more often is blogging! Yes, apologise to all my clients. And yes, you gals can stop chasing me as I target to put up one article a week! Cheers!

Personal wise, continue to upgrade myself with more learning from new/existing network and friends :) And be more brave in taking up more challenges.

Here I 'dive' ~ splash ~

Give Thanks to 2009

I got wanted to post this up before new year.. but was too busy mingling with customers and gatherings.

Seriously do not want to repeat the same words such as "times fly" etc etc... as its already so true!

2009 was much described as a year full of ups and downs... both economy and nature.

2009 was also considered one of the most eventful year of my life.

Starting Potpots organic skin care business move me closer to the cyberworld. The world wide web (www), bloggers (blogging), html (dun know learn....) and internet maketing... The information was too overwhelm! Almost drowned..hahah... but fun la!

Brand building is definitely not an easy task, takes time and persistence. This makes me kowtao to the superbrands such as Sony, Nokia etc.

I am a grateful to my partner for her guidance. She is definitely a much more better business woman from me.

Skin Needs launched sport massage services in May. Glad that my clients find the sport massage useful and I am able to ease their tense muscles in all the Shape, Standard Charter Run. *proud*

I met many new clients (turn friends) in 2009. Thank you for sharing with me the happenings around you. I have learnt a lot from you.

I tried my hands on some other business too such as trading. A much simpler one. Maybe I should start this too?

Another person to give thanks to is Ant. He is the great supporter in all my business, coming from all aspects, morally and logistically. I am lucky to have him as around me, not many business person have supportive family members*Big Kiss*

Now I look back (with a smile), its not as bad la. All the endless learnings are great enrichment for life. Knowledge is something you gain and never get steal or vanish!

Thank you 2009!
