bored and frozen

The place: Hooilart, Overijse, Brussels
Why? : I'm stuck because i can't get back to the UK

Note to self: Never. ever. enter another country without an on-going ticket. To those of you who think this is very funny, well, it's not. It's inconvenient to the max, I have to travel halfway around the planet to get my visa. And I have a refusal stamp in my passport that won't go away. I need to get a new passport now because i'm going to get grief from border control each time i cross immigration. And i'm even more pissed off because it is of no fault of mine.

But all that aside, I love europe. Firstly, sure, they pay more tax. But at least the welfare is visible. So what if i'm paying 40 percent taxes and 21 percent VAT? I know that i can rely on someone to help should something go wrong. On top of that i get a good healthy environment where people are not so uptight and more friendly on the whole.

So we pay less taxes in singapore? My dad is on a wheelchair, i tried to look for help and no governemnt department is interested. And if you fall sick, sure it's cheap, but you still have to pay, and if you don't pay, you're screwed. So what if we pay less taxes? It all turns around and nips you in the butt somewhere.
