It has been a good 5 months since I last did a Wealth Manifestation Home Feng Shui Workshop.
You may think it's the norm to have a Wealth-themed workshop pre-CNY.
But nah, that wasn't the first thought on my mind.
Remember my husband and I used to be $180K in debt?
You know when was the worst time I felt really miserable and remorseful for all that I have done wrong financially?
Yes, Chinese New Year.
When I should be buying new clothes, giving extra money to my parents and in-laws, decorating our home with CNY decor and just buying more of our favourite CNY goodies, setting aside angpow money for the children and elder relatives...
I was just crying and crying inside at a bank account that only had $0.60 and I would shake every time I had to open a letter that remotely resembled a bill.
I didn't dare to tell my parents and relatives what was happening to me.
3 Lunar New Years, my friend.
For THREE Lunar New Years, I dreaded waking up. I wished I could just sleep the whole 15 days away, without having to see anyone, in my old and worn clothing.
During one Lunar New Year, my sister-in-law loaned my husband $2000. Actually, more like give. She didn't set a timeline for him to return. So that we would have enough to tide over the CNY period and beyond.
Both the Husband and I are the eldest in the family. To borrow money from our younger siblings, parents or relatives is like a huge slap across our faces.
How irony right? It's like pretending to that we are doing good, yet everything was falling down like dominoes in reality. Still have to laugh and talk to relatives at CNY gatherings.
I swear I almost went crazy from having to hear 恭喜發財 one more time then.
From that day on, I vowed that NEVER again I would reach that low in my life.
For every synonym you have for the word "painful", I probably have experienced it during that three years to pull myself up, with Feng Shui and Buddhist practices.
Perhaps you are lucky enough not to have went through what I did TWICE in my life, to be as poor as a pauper.
But my friend, if money had been a struggle for you, or you know your finances can certainly do better with a shakeup in your Home Feng Shui, come hear what I have to say next Sunday.
2017 is the Year of the Fire Rooster. Trust me, when I say it wouldn't be an easy year for the global economy, and definitely it would affect our tiny nation, Singapore.
However, if your Home Feng Shui is in tip top condition, you don't have to fall when everyone else is. Remember this, there's always money to be made in times of downturn and conflicts. So why can't that person be you?
I am still doing a FREE Room Feng Shui audit at my workshop for the the early birds. It is my signature offering every workshop and my participants can vouch that how amazing it is to learn the thought process of a Feng Shui practitioner LIVE!
PLUS for this workshop, I am offering you an option to ask me the ONE burning question in your mind about your career/wealth luck for the Year of the Fire Rooster.
Say, should you change job? Is it time to further your studies? Or can you finally start that business of yours? etc etc...
After 12 workshops, I have gotten a better understanding of my participants, so let's set the record straight here.
If you prefer fantasizing to taking action, don't buy my ticket.
If you like to whine about things and send me PMs in the middle of the night, yet NEVER acting on my advice, don't buy my ticket.
If you think my ticket is soooo expensive, don't buy my ticket.
I'm not here for the bargain hunters, whiners or the skeptics.
In the past 4 weeks alone, I have seen two ends of the spectrum.
My participants who had taken action, and those who after 6 months, still never acted.
The results speak for themselves.
And one last thing, out of respect, I don't serve my Shifu's clients too, unless he asks me to. Please don't buy my ticket or seek my services. I think it's dumb that you approach me when you have someone that level of divinity serving you.
Don't be fooled by my supposedly friendlier demeanour. I'm known to be strict and serious, when dealing with the destinies and home Feng Shui of clients. I don't toy with people's futures because any miscalculated advice can ruin a family's happiness.
So pardon me if I had to refund your ticket before the workshop. Nothing personal here, just my work value preferences.
I hope none of you had to struggle financially. But if you are or worry that you might in the upcoming times of uncertainy, I welcome you to come seek my customized solutions for you this Sunday. :)

Final tips for Paper 4 Speaking
Group Discussion
先睇instructions再睇passage 找relevant points。通常那大約200字的passage 只有3-4個relevant points。 同學不單要elaborate 那數個points, 還必須要加自己original ideas and personal experience。
Pronunciation & delivery, Vocabulary & language patterns 不能在短時間改善。 但以下兩項則可以。
Ideas and organization
- 在原文找到points 後必須要運用topic sentence 及 examples 去organize 及elaborate。
例如題目要discuss home swapping vacations 的pros and cons.原文提及好處是save accommodation expenses and provide a 'local- flavored 'trip。那麽你表達這兩個points 時應該是:
1)cheaper
- save expenses on hotel rooms and meals
- personal experience( staying at your friend's home during a trip before)
2) a better understanding of the culture
- know more about their lifestyle/habits
- more 'local-flavored'
- personal experience( staying with a host family during a student exchange programme before)
Bear in mind that the passage is only a springboard from which you come up with the ideas with your personal experience. 記住要加:
1) topic sentence for each point( organization)
2) personal experience and examples ( 一定要有)
3) original ideas( 原文冇提及的)
Communication Strategies
此項非常重要。有些同學只顧講自己的points 而缺乏communication. 像在讀一個pre-prepared speech.
記住每次發言均要承上啟下。要回應之前發言者意見,才再加自己的point ,再啟發下個發言者。記住用speaking class( theory) 的兩個重要句式:Apart from... as you have just mentioned, it can also... // I am afraid ...wouldn't it be...?
謹記我在speaking lesson 提及的P Chan's communication strategies(4 steps ) 記住要有 reinforcement 及persuasive questions.
至於pronunciation, 如不肯定1個字怎讀,用較淺的synonym 取代. 如a sumptuous hotel 可改為luxurious 甚至comfortable. 不識讀apprentice 改為intern 甚至trainee. 唔好expose your weakness!
As for vocabulary and language patterns, watch out for the following fatal errors:
Discuss about/ let us to talk/ many information/ childrens / more better....
Individual Response
唔好用以下公式的開塲白及結尾(formulaic expressions)
Thank you for your question x
Thank you for asking me such an interesting question x
That's the end of my presentation x
回答問題時,報以微笑,最後說聲thank you 便可。回答yes/ no question時必須要用2-3points elaborate.回答問題時,不可只用group discussion 提及的points, 要加自己original ideas( 所以在10- minute preparation time 必須要唸至少2個 original ideas ( ideas not stated in the passage) )
The best of luck💪

如非必要,請不要request another question. 大部份examiners 也不喜歡。另一條問题也可能更難答。
一個5** 的individual response 必须要有original ideas and personal experience.
Hang in there, boys and girls! 💪💪💪💪
Seize the day, make your life extraordinary! 💪💪💪💪
