The keyboard is nice to type with good responsiveness. 

However, the mouse is not as smooth as the keyboard. There may sometimes be slight delay due to being in standby mode but it still helps a lot when I use my tablet as a mini laptop.  

Keyboard, mouse and stylus. 

The stylus is pretty lightweight. For me, I am a person who love to use my finger to navigate my tablet. I find that it needs a little force when using the stylus to scroll or tap since the rubbery tip cannot be compared to our fingers that produce enough static to make it more responsive than a stylus. But using the stylus reduces finger print on the tablet screen. If you are a person who love using stylus, the stylus provided does the work. 

Casting Feature

This LUMOS tablet came with build-in screen sharing or mirror cast capability.

My Review

Supplements play an important role in keeping us healthy for modern and busy people. Finding trusted and effective supplement is not an easy job. 

Few years back, my yearly health screening shows my cholesterol level at the borderline. Meaning, if I don't start to take care of it, my cholesterol level will continue to climb up and that will cause serious problem to my health. 

First action I do is to add more exercise session to my weekly routine and also change my diet to eat less fried and oily food, eat less food that is high in cholesterol and eat more fruits and vegetables. 

Then I saw good reviews for Eu Yan Sang CholesFREE PLUS with Natto supplement. Seeing that it's from a trusted brand and I do not have other medication or health issue, I decided to try it out. 

This CholesFREE supplement came packed in a box.

The capsule is red/maroon in color. 

How the capsule looks like.

I followed the instructions to take1-2 capsules twice daily after meal for the first few months and also the month before health screening. Thereafter, I consume for maintenance, 2 capsules a day after meal. 

I consume them for quite a few years now followed with exercise and diet control. My recent health screening shows my cholesterol level is now at the healthy level. 

This supplement really works for me. So if you have cholesterol borderline, give this a try. But the most important note is that if you have any health or medication issue, check with your doctor or practitioner for advice before trying or consuming it.

My Review

I am a tea lover. I love to drink tea especially during tea break and relaxing weekends. Drinking tea not only relax my mind, it helps to keep me healthy and sometime resolve some problems such as stomach bloated, heatiness, throat irritation, etc. 

There are lots of varieties of tea for everyone to explore. Recently, I came across this very interesting tea from iTeaworld call Ya Shi Xiang Oolong Tea. 

Ya Shi Xiang Oolong Tea.

If you are not aware, Ya Shi Xiang translate to duck shit fragrance. The first time I see this name, it got me curious. How does the tea relate to duck shit? Will it smell like one?

I did a search online on why this tea is called Ya Shi Xiang. Long story short, it's the way farmers used to protect this precious tea from being exploited by others. 

The name of the tea first caught my attention. After checking the many benefits of this tea such as stress relief, anti oxidants, anti inflammation, immune booster and etc, I decided to give it a try. 

The tea came in a paper box which is easy to tear open.

I can see different in color for the 3 seasons tea, with winter having the lightest color and autumn having the darkest color.

Winter have the most fragrance smell with spring having the least. Although autumn have the thickest smell but not so in term of fragrance. 

All 3 seasons does not taste bitter nor rough. No much different from looking at the tea leaves.

Winter had the lightest but most fragrance tea taste, autumn tea taste thicker and spring tea taste in between winter and autumn with more layering to it. 

One thing I notice is that the tea taste as nice when left in room temperature.

For me, I love spring tea most as the tea had a more layering flavours as compare to the other two. But my mum love the thickness of the taste from autumn tea and my brother love the no after taste from winter tea. 

Overall, this is an interesting and nice tea to drink. This is also a good choice of tea for tea beginners to start tea tasting (especially winter tea) because of how smooth the tea taste and the lack of usual bitter (苦涩) tea after taste.
