Dear all,

How's holidays been?

I suppose it has been Work, Work, Work...

Or it could have been Sleep, Sleep, Sleep...

Or it could have been Outings, Outings, Outings...

Or it could also have been Boredom, Boredom, Boredom... :)

Anyhow, do look through your Bucklet List and try to tick off at least 3 things you want to do...read widely...hook up some sports...or these 2 meaningful events that I thought you might be interested in.

1. Christmas Kettle Appeal (22 Nov—24 Dec)
–The Christmas Kettle Appeal is a unique fundraising project that enables The Salvation Army to continue its work with the needy and underprivileged.
Every year, staff and volunteers take to the streets ringing bells and encourage passers-by to drop a donation into the kettles.
We would like to invite you to join us in this tradition and make a difference.

It's the first day of December 2008 today...It's also the last month of this year 2008.
May you spend it fruitfully and also have a blessed time of reflection and thanksgiving as you move on to a fresh year of 2009.

Warmest, Ms D. Chan 0 Comments(s), Leave a comment?
