Old folks only like 2 very practical things in life. Money or jewelery.

1. What's her preferences?
2. Plan an event for a day... an experience she would luv...

try talking, communicating, ask around, listening to her, to people around her... any 'missed' wishes, etc... thoughts that count, maybe work from that angle...Originally posted by Darkness_hacker99:I dunno her preferences leh because I am stay with my father's mother side.

I asked my mother already.. She say my grandmother wants money.. Ya, she is the practical type. But isn't that weird for a 18 year old kid to give a 50+ old woman money?Originally posted by eyebuzz:try talking, communicating, ask around, listening to her, to people around her... any 'missed' wishes, etc... thoughts that count, maybe work from that angle... -

I think it's important to get her something practical. How much do you know about her? Does she like to read, watch TV, listen to oldies etc? -
she is around 50+ 60+. My budget is $100+. I other info I not sure because we rarely meet. She is gonna celebrate her bd at a hotel.. She is into canto opera.Originally posted by honeymouse:How old is she? What is your budget?

If she is into canto operas, perhaps you can go and check out if there's any life cultural show performing the canto operas in Singapore and get a ticket for her to go.Originally posted by Darkness_hacker99:she is around 50+ 60+.

Also, how about some chinese tonics like "Yang Min Jiu" or bird's nest etc? Is she into these things? -
Maybe bird nest. Not sure about 'Yang Min Jiu'.Originally posted by honeymouse:If she is into canto operas, perhaps you can go and check out if there's any life cultural show performing the canto operas in Singapore and get a ticket for her to go.
