Today the price of my favourite prawn noodles went up 20 cents, a 10% increase from $2. I tried to find out if the reason was the GST hike, but the 'uncle' made a hasty retreat after my first question confirming the price hike. To be fair, $2.20 is still relatively cheap for a good bowl of prawn noodles.
I find myself more attuned to the costs of living these days. Maybe it's the education. Or maybe it's just the imminent reality of graduation and debts. I wanted to say "financing my own wants and needs" as well, but I don't think my expectations are likely to explode out of my means immediately, although I do want to see the world so badly.
