Troubled World, Trouble us

I don't know whether my brother cares but our family sort of dangled in a financial crisis. Of cos I am glad that this financial crisis comes after I am able to work and earn money for my family, but over the years, the high cost of living for us seems to put us into quite a deep trouble. My mother is still giving me a lot of positive answers on the family's future.

In the past I think I would earn enough for a family or sufficient for a family. But because of Singapore's over ambitious plans made a moderate-earning family crashed right into crisis due to the high cost of living. The plans are good, but i think we acted too fast and if we are still in a more slow and steady plan, the crisis may not hit Singapore that big. Now, I guess we have to due with it.

I think I am earning a lot as compared to the other diploma graduate after my 2 years of NS. However, it's still not enough for my family. I placed pressure on my shoulders because I love my family and want to shield them, giving them a constant comfortable living even though of financial crisis.

If i can and time allows, i can even try to make more money working on 2 jobs and study. I know it's tiring and maybe my relationship will crack, but just hope for the best.

So stress... really stress...
