Garmin !!! My new toy
I played with my Garmin GPS watch today. It was hell lot of fun. I was chasing Grace since she was taking a bus to meet that Fat Pig. Bus takes a long time. ^^From the map you could see there was a detour to the right, that is where Fat Pig is staying. Also where Pei Yi is staying.. It was really fun and i enjoyed myself, Grace was pretty shocked that the bicycle could be faster then the bus.. I am trying to poison her to ride with me. This means i need to get a bike for her ($.$)
While riding halfway, i had a small accident, i am glad nothing bad really happen to my bike or me. Just shock, some fat guy gave way for me to pass, so when i accelerate to pass he suddenly took up the space which he opened up, i braked hard and flew a distance. DAMN..
I was so bored and ended up riding to Ryan's place after that, my agenda was to go to West Mall and get Grace's new watch, decided that since i was around that area, it was only nice that i dropped by. Ryan gave me an Singapore Poly IVP Jacket =) I am so glad , he managed to get it from school. I wont post the details up on how he got it XD . Oh well, i like guys like him.. Nice chap.
I switched off the GPS soon after i reach Ryan's house,reason being: it drains battery. Which explains why it only ends there.
This is the watch that she ordered from Swatch.. Looks pretty normal. Not worth it =( No cool functions and such... Girls.. Haiz.
Tah da.... My new toy.. Garmin Forerunner 405. It has GPS, Heart rate functions, and bike sensor and many many stuff that i myself don't know how to use even with the guide book. Only thing is that i need to buy the bike sensor =( And that cost another 100 plus dollars ? Freaking expensive.. For the technology , its worth it ^^
This is it in its charging mode. When i on the GPS, it can last 8 hours non- stop. But if i just use it as a normal watch , it can last 2 weeks without charging. I don't see how i can last with this watch 2 weeks in the army =( I might sell this watch away when i am entering the army. This watch is too good for my usage. haiz... As much as i would like to keep it, i think a normal Casio watch will do the job.(i haven't taken pics of the lap top yet, i will do it later when Grace comes back, must take in front of her =p)
