today just stayed home to do some last minute packing and cleanin
was shocked to see the bags of thrash i managed to throw out LOL

my house's geared up for CNY already lol
so IN THE MOOD~
mum and dad kept going to the market to stock up for the house too..
cleaning stuff... foodstuff.. decorative stuff -_-" i think any wall has been pasted with some red stuff by dad ..

i cant wait to see my cousins .. wanna "interrogate" them soon heh


HAPPY CNY IN ADVANCE!

on another note..

after the help measures are announced

NONE CAN APPLY to me

duh ..
cause its for ppl
->45 who earn <1.5K (can get up to 1.2 a yr in cash and cpf)
-35-45 who earn <1.5k (can get up to 900 a yr in cash and cpf)
-who earn <1.5K who are self employed or odd jobs (pay lower medisave rate and can get up to 800 a yr)

the only thing that applies to me
CPF contribution from employer rised from 13% to 14.5%

i'm not considered the LOWER INCOME yet is far from MIDDLE or HIGHER income catergory

i just feel unjusted..

hmm but there's other help measures..
-cash of up to 1k over 4 yrs dependin on income and household types
-rebates in utilities bill, service and conservancy charges, rentals
-one-off property tax rebate
these will be useful for my family instead..
