It's been awhile since my last update, but I'm back with something interesting to share!


So I visited a showroom, for some window shopping.

NOT!

I was invited to the Peugeot Showroom to get check out their newest ride on the road. Well, I looked, and my friend drove haha

Yes you heard that right! We were allowed to test drive the car and it was a really smooth ride.

Bet not a lot of people know about this, but Peugeot is actually a French car brand. The Peugeot 308 as shown in the picture above is not a stranger to many, but it has gone through a facelift and we were lucky to be shown around the showroom and have the Peugeot representative tell us more about the new Peugeot 308 hatchback.

Before I go into detail about our test drive, here's some key features of the new Peugeot 308 for the car fanatics:

1) Full LED highlights with LED daytime running lights - Features that are usually only found on high-end luxury marques, these give the new 308 a stunning profile and are much brighter than the usual halogen lamps

2) i-Cockpit interior - Winner of 'Most Beautiful Interior in the UK'

3) Panaromic glass roof* - Stretches all the way to the back of the car and provides stunning views

4) 1.2L PureTech turbo petrol engine and 6-speed EAT6 gearbox - Provides 129hp and 230Nm for great city driving and smooth performance, at lower COE and road tax costs

5) Excellent fuel consumption of up to 19.6km/litre

6) Convenient driving aids like City Park Assist* and blind spot monitoring system technology*

*Allure models only



The drive was really smooth and according to my friend (who only got her license for a year and have not been driving much often), it's really easy to control. What really stands out is how quiet the ride was.

We've got another driver who tested the 308. Look at that beautiful glass roof!

Well, you can also give the 308 a go on your own, for an entire weekend, with a staycation! All you have to do is blog about at least ONE of your favorite feature of the 308. How simple :)

Good luck and tell me how it goes if you are the lucky winner!

I've disappeared way too long for my personal liking. I've been way too caught up with the goings in life, which very much includes money, work, more work, and.. Social media.

Anyhow..

Can't admit it's a self realization, but more of topics that has been brought up before. 

"Self entitlement"

Maybe it's the culture, definitely the upbringing. I've come to terms that we Singaporeans (myself included) always think that we deserve something from someone/anyone. That we deserve higher pay because we got a paper that states we're graduates, that people around us should acknowledge and reward us for whatever we do (even if it's something so meager).

Then again someone once told me, "If something was wrong wherever you worked/working at, maybe it's not them, not you, but humanity" Oh. TOTALLY BRO. It's definitely humanity, and there's nothing much I can do about it. She told me, then again there's influence, positive influence is what would make this world a better place.

Many people have told me that I have a great amount of tolerance, not that I actually notice it. I seem to be able to tolerate a lot more shit then I know. But oh boy, when I've reached that boiling point and unleash the Kraken inside of me, I doubt anyone would wanna even be remotely close to me. We're all too sheltered to know many underlying things.

The many depths of life as such.
