Driving the FRV and my sis's new toy

My sister's new toy














It's the new mac book, which arrived in the office just before team prayer and got everyone in hysterics (even the PC users mind you) every part of it is so pretty, even the styrofoam in the box (check out the photos). It's white like her current one but has a ton of cool software included like iLife and iWork which we bought too. she also has an inbuilt video on top for video conferencing! so cool.. =) thankfully it's white, if not i will be mighty envious of it. =)

Driving the FRV

Today, we drove out for lunch at Ginza Market in the FRV aka ForeRunner Van. On the way home, the guys decided to let me try driving the van since I passed my driving. Haiks found a pretty quiet road for to start off and off i went! Was a little apprehensive at first cos the clutch was slightly stiff and the gears difficult to manuver. But to my surprise, it was alot easier to handle as compared to my dad's auto car. realise i do prefer the manual car cos it gives me more control over the car. =) Thanks to Haiks, who was really very calm throughout the whole adventure. Felt very assured with him at the side. =) Looking forward to more opportunities to drive the van.=)
