Date:<\/strong> 22 Dec 2010 Wednesday<\/p>\n

Both JR & I took \u00c2\u00bd day leave today in order to run some last minute errants before our night flight. JR picked me up from Simei MRT and we sped off to settle my renunciation application at the High Commission of Malaysia. Next we collected our study materials from MBS and bought more USD from Arcade. Had our lunch finally and went home to take some rest, bathed and it’s time to \u00e5\u2021\u00ba\u00e5\u008f\u2018!<\/p>\n
