Carmina went to do her two weeks grocery on March 25, 2025, at Landers Balintawak branch. Upon entering the store near the pharmacy there was a sign posted saying to register for vaccines that will be held on April 12, 2025. Carmina called up Becky asking if she is interested remembered to look out for the flu shot. Becky said yes and asked her to give me full name, birthdate and phone number contact information. Carmina also called up Mom Violy said alright and still faraway to decide. Carmina felt Mom Violy should get the flu shot since we'll be traveling to California upcoming vacation. Two years ago, when we went to California got sick and that time it was covid season. I just wanted to protect myself even though hardly get sick in the Philippines. Two days before our flu vaccine received a SMS on our mobile phone number to confirm if we are going to get our flu shot. I had responded said yes. One day before I had message Becky if she had received her confirmation on her flu s...
We come across a discussion with someone and they ask
what your status is doesn’t mean the status if you are single, married, divorce
or widow. They are asking the status if you are poor, middle or rich.
Does it really matter what status you are among your
friends?
This is my story I came across from when I had started
living in the Philippines to explain why it doesn’t matter to me what status
you are and who knows you may also agree or disagree with me.
When I moved here in the Philippines I had to start from the
bottom just like anyone else moving to another foreigner country as we all have
moved across another place other than what you are use too your living environment
because more dramatic than what you are use too.
In the beginning you cannot complain where you’re living
because this is a part of life that comes with adjustment period not only for
yourself but the people who are involved.
When you live with other people who not only a family member
and employees who come different province of the Philippines you learn to get along
with them.
They may not have money like anyone you are use too but I
had never look down below who they are I had accepted who they are because they
are human being and I was never taught to look people among who wasn’t the same
level as I am.
I was always questioned by family members why I decided to
be close to the employee and why I ate with them in each meal at their table.
I was also talked back and lectured to anyone who didn’t understand
who I was and who I am now but I really don’t care what they think of me when I
was managing my parents business I had to deal with elderly and teenagers I
knew how to balance my time and being in charge how to train them to become a
better employee.
When you become a role model for those who work among you
and they look up to you there is no time to judge what status you are with
them.
The employee who I work with didn’t speak the same language
as what I had spoke in Tagalog or English but either way they didn’t judge me
as well for some reason for many years we are able to get a long with each
other.
The employees took the courage to speak English since it seems
so common language in the Philippines but of course it took time to speak the
language and until now they ask me the translation of some words.
You have probably seen in my videos that I have post in my
Facebook Page under Carmina Lifestyle.
I am not anyone who you call rich but I don’t care what
status you are and I don’t care what my friends are as well.
My friend who asked me this got really mad at me because
they couldn’t understand me for who I am and I realize why does it matter what
status you are to me it is not a big deal.
No one will know what status you are and some people who are
not rich dress how people want them to look but there are people who are rich
don’t even dress what status they are because they don’t want to be recognized.
