Last night was the last session for module 2... time realli flies eh! sigh... a bit sentimental when we were presenting the gifts for Alvin, Veron and Terence... =(
We all chipped in and gave three of them a branded(!) pen, a mug, and a personalised laminated photo, from FLCs! hehe... dunno whether they peeped under the mugs, they'll be in for a surprise there! =>
We all had such good time together...
Hmm... Veron and Terence have such nice and cosy office... Veron even offered to have us over for pot-luck gathering every month... wow... must organise and keep in touch lor...

10 Commandments of Marriage
Disclaimer: JuSt FoR lAuGh
Commandment 1
Marriages are made in heaven. But so again, are thunder and lightning.
Commandment 2
If you want your wife to listen and pay strict attention to every word you say, talk in your sleep.
Commandment 3
Marriage is grand - and divorce is at least 100 grand!
Commandment 4
Married life is very frustrating! In the first year of marriage, the man speaks and the woman listens. In the second year, the woman speaks and the man listens. In the third year, they both speak and the neighbours listen.
Commandment 5
When a man opens the door of his car for his wife, you can be sure of one thing: Either the car is new or the wife is.
Commandment 6
Marriage is when a man and woman become as one; the trouble starts when they try to decide which one.
Commandment 7
Before marriage, a man will lie awake all night thinking about something you say. After marriage, he will fall asleep before you finish.
Commandment 8
Every man wants a wife who is beautiful, understanding, economical and a good cook. But the law allows only one wife.
Commandment 9
Marriage and love are purely matter of chemistry. That is why the wife treats the husband like toxic waste.
Commandment 10
A man is incomplete until he is married. After that, he is finished.

happy day, hubby and me
today is a very special day for me. not only is it hubby's birthday i've received my license to solemnize marriages!
it is a tall order indeed.
being married for 8 years now... i have so much to share with couples-to-be, the ups and downs that is inevitable, etc etc etc.
having gone thru a not-so-smooth period myself, i realise how important it is to have a support and someone you can talk to when the marriage hits the rough patches. your own parents may not always be the appropriate people cos no matter how, they are YOUR parents, and for me, I wouldn't want them to think any less of my husband at all! sometimes all you need is someone who is ready to listen to you, who need not give you any advice, but just someone whom you know you can count on for confidentiality and non-prejudiced against anyone.
nonetheless, i feel honoured and blessed to be able to give my blessings to couples! that is something so precious and dear! i sure hoped my own ROM was more memorable and creative than it had been...

What is a Family Life Champion?
A Family Life Champion (FLC) is a grassroots leader appointed by the Citizen Consultative Committee (CCC) Chairman in the constituency to champion and promote family life in the community. 84 FLCs were appointed since March 2005.
With these appointments, there is a conscious effort in the community to recognize and celebrate family life. Being community leaders and are closest to the residents, FLCs are in the best position to champion the promotion of family life in the community.
The annual FLC Award Programme was launched in August 2005 to recognise the efforts of grassroots leaders who take the lead to promote family life in their constituencies.
To champion the notion of celebrating marriages, 34 FLCs have been appointed as licensed solemnisers since 24 August 2005.
