Wife Wanted!

I chanced upon an interesting article today..

A wealthy 44 yrs old British businessman advertised for a wife in their local papers.
Not that he is ugly looking/overweight or anything, just he devoted his time to build up his business empire from ground zero.
Now that he has got all the money, cars and properties he dreams of, he seeks a wife to share all these with him.

However he states the following criterias:
1.Beauty
2.Brains
3.Healthy Body
4.Balanced lifestyle

Guys, are these common criterias or what?
Anyone with other criterias?

But I wonder if we expect such criterias from our potential partners..
What can we give back in return?
So, my criteria is 'Be Yourself'
Really!! cross my heart on this,man! *winks*

Are you calling me a Whore?

When in Rome, be like the Romans..
Don't expect Romans to be Singaporeans.
Or Singaporeans to be China Nationals.

No pun intended for China Friends..
But for goodness sake, 'Xiao Jie' is nothing in our culture..
If your country folks prefer otherwise, 'Aunty/Uncle' makes a good alternative.
Take note, local darlings *winks*

Mes Désirs

Je veux partager avec vous un désir de la femme sur l'amour.

Elle ne demande pas d'argent ou de l'or, mais un sans prétention est.
Elle ne demande pas de visages charmants mais un coeur qui est fidèles et vrai.
Elle demande non grand renfler mucsles mais un protecteur quand elle est faible.
Elle ne demande pas de Maître ou des Doctorats, mais la connaissance pour partager pour une vie.

Elle m'est :)

The title, 'Mes Desirs' in french means My Desires *winks*

Telephone Etiquettes

In the midst of my busy schedule in the office today, a telesales from MNC bank called me.

'Ms. Chia, I am XXX from C*t*bank. (without stopping, he went on ranting for 10min)

Thank you & have a good day.."

I am pissed!!
Not because I wasted 10 minutes of my time but because he was simply reading from his script.

Why are you reading from the script?
Excuse me, don't you know your products well?
You assume I catch every single word when you were speaking like a bullet train.
How about the insurance terms?
You were so focus on hard selling that you don't bother to explain in layman terms.
Again, you assume I understood..

To share a thing or two..
It will be great to greet, engage and ask :)

Greet->A warm and cheerful, 'Good Morning/Good Day' doesn't hurts.
Seek permission to talk by asking ' Is it a good time for me to talk to you now?'
Engage->Allow customers to share their requirements and needs. Listen!!
Make the conversation interesting by positioning your services to suit the customer's needs.
Ask-> Ask for feedback and opinions. It will allow you to understand your strengths & flaws.

Use positive words like ' Benefits', 'Advantages', 'Savings', 'Earnings' ..just to name a few

Now, you know the tricks *winks*

I'll be glad to help with more sales pitch tactics, just drop me a mail :)


Hope the above helps in your telephone sales pitch *winks*
Gamateh!!

MuayThai

Alex suggested running or kick-boxing to increase metabolism and to burn off the extra carbo.
The suggestions strikes me to explore Muay Thai.

Muay Thai originates in Thailand and is delivered in terms of kicks(teh), punches(chok) and elbows(tee sok).
In addition to just learning the various fight/defence techniques, a Muay Thai fighter also focus on body conditioning.
The basic ones are rope jumping, push-ups, sit-ups and tyre hopping.

I've done my research and the lessons conducted at Royal Thai Fitness Training Centre seems really economical($25/lesson) and established.
They are also afflicted with Sitchunthong Gym meaning that I can have sparring sessions with the local Thai fighters if I am on holiday in Bangkok. So cool right?

Here, check out their website:

Hey, any takers to join me? *winks*
I bet it will be tiring but rewarding :)

Maiden Marathron

I feel motivated to run after reading Edmund's post and have signed up for Passion Run2009.

To do a full 25km is most prob gonna kill me so I have signed up for 5km instead.

The marathron is about 1 month away from now but I havent start training.

I will stop procrastinating and start training soon.

Ma Bousculade Secrète

J'ai décidé d'écrire cette poste en français parce que je suis trop timide n'importe qui permet de sait de mes sensations pour vous :)

Ne vous regardez rien impressionnant le premier de peu de seconde quand je vous ai rencontré premièrement. Cependant, j'ai été écrasé par votre sens d'échéance, soignant l'esprit d'attitude et messieurs. J'ai apprécié votre accompagne beaucoup et a aimé surtout le voyage de natation et le premier film que nous avons regardés. J'espère sincèrement que vous ayez apprécié mon accompagne aussi :)

J'ai prié que si c'est dans la volonté de Dieu, s'il vous plaît nous permettre un hasard pour connaître plus et développe une relation qui est au-delà de l'amitié.
Manquer vous les lots !
