Day 04

Wake up later today... last night sleep late... haha... but luckily still in time for free breakfast...

Saw the morning stock market... DOWN DOWN DOWN!! but later in the day... stunning rebound. market ended mixed feeling i thought... the technical rebound could be due to the AUST rate cut... who knows... see how it goes tmr...

Went out to meet Ling for lunch and take photo. had sushi for lunch... hmmm... dun taste good leh. think SG serve better jap food... haha... maybe they have localise liao. Take photo at a shop there... here they use alot of 1 inch photo alot... unless SG we use passport size photo.
