Its been a long time since we spent time with Navin and Agnes and we finally made a point to meet up for dinner in between everyones’ busy schedule.

It was dinner at Geek Terminal as it was still a new place and we’ve all never been there for a meal before. Although half of the place was closed up for an event, we still managed to get comfy seats and a decent meal.

The girls chatted away at i’m not sure what, but since there was wifi, i showed Navin how to use wordpress and also how paypal works. I’ve so wanted to show him for the longest time already and i’m glad we finally managed to get that done.

Our good friends from Hong Kong came over to Singapore again and this time they managed to come over to our place to see our kids and just chill out at our place.

We had Pearl’s cupcakes, tea and good serious chat. It surrounded around kids, married life, work, business and the future.

We had a good time just catching up with them and we look forward to the next time for us to meet again.

Boynq D’Light

Its so difficult to find a decent USB LED light for my laptop. I’ve shopped at a few Mac shops, Funan, Takashimaya, misc small shops and finally Sim Lim Square.

During my hunt, i found Boynq’s D’Light the most beautiful of the lot and i found it at Takashimaya. However with its excellent design, i did not buy it. The problem was with the shade. I can’t possibly put the entire thing in my bad, most likely the shade will break. So i ended up buying a $8 basic simple flexible black coloured neck simple LED light from Sim Lim.

So if you’re wondering why i need this at all… its because i luv my wife and would like to switch off the lights in the bedroom when she is snoozing away. As i still need to be able to view the keyboard properly, hence the nifty device.

I’m not really a car person and was never interested in test driving cars. However, after hearing about Volkswagen’s award winning TSI Engine, i think its really something, so i had to test drive it and experience it for myslef.

Golf GT

I went to their showroom and got myself a test drive. Being a test drive car I stepped on the gas fully and boy was it fun! The car definately feels like a 2.0 as some cliamed and it was great fun seeing the boost dial in the dashboard go up and down.

Golf R32

Since i’m already there, i test drove the R32 as well since i did not manage to do a test drive the last time round. It was much heavier than the Golf GT, but knowing it has a 3.2 lire engine, i drove in caution. It was powerful, maybe a bit too powerful for me.

Overrall, it was a plseant experience and you’ve got to try the Golf GT for yourself in order to apprciate the technology.
