Me Time!

After my saga, I ensure the kids have good eating habits and must exercise daily.


I always envy my boys, they have such good bowel movement. 2-3 times a day. The boys drink 2 cups of fresh milk (day and night), banana during lunchtime and oatmeal for breakfast. Swim every morning before going to school.

I was outside yesterday and luckily most time cloudy…today at home listening to some interviews/songs and reading, with a ceiling fan on, quite cooling.

i feel its right for gov to take more care on seniors - so can reduce & cushion the strains of their children to handle the medical expenses ... but i think more can still be given to them on healthcare- seeing a doc is so ex. I paid $60 for a recent throat inflammation , over $60 plus for a flu before too ... how are the olds going to handle such high medical cost

yes cost of living is high (depends on personal & individual lifestyle) , then some households need to cut on luxury on transport , restaurants n sending kids to enrichment classes , or sought to dual income structure , hopefully these families are not taxed by the elder parents if G can take gd care of them .
Actually Sing food and transport fare is not that ex compared to developed areas in asia of hk, Jap, korea, aust ,taiwan - we can get $2.5 to $3.8 chicken rice / economy rice /breakfast set - how to find one in other developed countries ? ( no need to compare msia, indo, thai,etc we are way above class in std of living ) our only ex purchases are cars and housings - again depends on whether one is going to stay in hdb or private ... a lot of older people bought 3rm hdb at $20k and selling at $300k now even in yishun estates -can't complain much right ... young grad pay is so much higher compared to my times of $1600+ - i got low pay and my hdb was low cost too .... now higher pay , higher hdb cost - thats how things work.... basic cost of living, we are still ok .... i dislike the 10 per cent serv charge most - should just impose on hotels and posh places only

I feel the public transport cost is high as I need to top up (each time $10) my ezlink card very often. A short trip out of the house is easily $1+.
I do agree that the taxes collected should be used to help the old, sick and needy.

Well, we continue to work to pay taxes to help the less fortunate

Star , if u can recall jap transport , nz, aust buses are ex lei

Ya, I hope our taxes paid channel to help needy too
Take bus here is much cheaper . Train then transfer to buses is few cents
