Carmina says Bebang’s halo-halo is summer in a spoon — but is it the real deal or just pretty colors in a cup?

Since last year, Mom Violy and Carmina had been wanting to try the much-talked-about  Bebang's Halo-Halo , but even when we passed by, the timing was never right. Mom Violy kept saying she’d wait until a branch opened closer to us. Then Becky told Carmina there was one along her commute route to work. The best part was that the Tomas Morato branch in Quezon City had just opened. When we arrived at CTTM Square , we found plenty of restaurants on the second floor. While checking the menu, we let the customers behind us order first. Mom Violy asked them for recommendations, and they suggested the Presidential for first timers. Unlike other places, Bebang’s Halo-Halo doesn’t have size options—everything comes in a standard size, making ordering easier. Seniors and PWDs get a discount per order, and you’re given something that lights up when your halo-halo is ready for pickup. Service was quick, so the wait wasn’t long at all.

Ancestor's Home in Cabanatuan, Philippines

 


Living in ancestor’s house where my mom grew up when she was young with her parents and siblings where memories bring back every time, she would visit her hometown.

What happens when you’re all grown up and your siblings all have migrated to another country and your parents are now in heaven resting in peace?

The ancestor’s house remains where it is being taking cared of a relative as your caretaker and this happens to a lot of people who have reached a retirement age having a home so big it is hard to manage here in the Philippines to pay someone to take care of your home is inexpensive compared to other countries.

No matter if you’re earning more than the Philippine currency you can afford the living expenses and the expenses that come having an ancestor’s home.

What happens when none of your siblings don’t want to migrate and retire back in the Philippines, they are content with their life abroad? Most people end up selling their ancestor’s home due to the life situation they decided upon and the share of how much with its value gets divided by equal share of each sibling and in any case, you have a sibling who no longer living and decease their share goes to their children to inherit.

Of course each sibling needs to pay equal share of the expenses made during the process and help pay the daily expense to take care of their ancestor’s home and to pay the property taxes to make sure the bank doesn’t get a hold of it in the future.
