I've been anticipating the Budget report this year, mostly because of the scheduled 2% GST hike that will take effect from 1st July this year.
.
There is this 'GST credit' bonus, which my parents will be getting 800 each, spread over the next 4 years. I'm just wondering if i qualify for that as well, cos im not yet considered an "adult singaporean". And if i don't qualify this year, will i qualify for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th payout from next year?
.
But one tiny, little, insignificant satisfaction will be the one-off $100 bonus im getting, which will not be enough to offset the 2% GST hike.

Speaking about Budget here and there, here's my budget loss for today:
.
1. $220.50 for my next Japanese course
2. Approximately $28 for today's k-ster and dinner
3. At least $6 on public transport
4. $2 in taxi fares out of base this morning
5. $2.80 for breakfast, $2 for lunch
6. And I've yet to pay the person who's helping me out for tmr's duty!

Anyone wanna invite me for CNY gamblings for me to recoup my losses??
