Achievements I did from my 6years of working
At the very young age I learned to stand in my own ,learned to find ways how to earned by working .I didn't study college so I was working as a nanny after I graduated highschool as what I shared before that I studied my 4th year in highschool in my own I was working at thesame time studying and after a month I graduated highschool I was looking for another job since I can't study college and I wanted to help my family ,good thing one of our relatives was looking a nanny for her two kids and I grabbed it even if the salary was only $40 per month and I need to take care of two kids a two months old and a 3 year old and I need to do laundry ,cleaned the house ad cooked our food .My salary was I gave to my mother for their needs .So I was thinking to find another job which had a higher salary ,so after 11/2 year of working as a maid and nanny at the same time I tried to apply as a saleslady in a department store tho I was afraid to be rejected coz one of the qualification was having a pleasing personality which I don't have lol!but then I put in my mind that theres no harm in trying and luckily I was hired .
My salary was only $3 per day and I need to spend 40pesos or $0.8 for my food but then I was trying to save because I wanted to give my familys need.The first thing I bought from my savings was a tv.
Television
As what I promised to my younger siblings that I am going to buy television for us for them to stay at the house to watch tv and don't need to watch from our neighbors tv .When I was 9 or 10 years old I think ,I and my siblings experienced that our neighbor closing their door when they learned that we are coming to watch their tv ,we don't have tv or electricity as well ,when the electricity reached our place our family wasn't able to have it coz we don't have money and one of our neighbor has a television so we went there to watch news and other tv programs ,one time I and my younger siblings went to our neighbor to watch tv ,they quickly closed the door and window and they are laughing inside ,I was hurt and I told my younger sibling that one day I will buy a tv for us ,and thats one of my first goal when we had an electricity and I had a job so I tried to save and during my 4months working as a salesclerk I was able to save $80 so I bought a 14inches tv with a big part of its back hahaha ,its expensive that time and now you can buy flat screened tv with a cheaper price .My younger siblings was so happy when I arrived at home with a tv .(I paused for a while coz I can't stop my tears as I remember this time)
Portable dvd player
When my ate was working as a substitute teacher for a kinder students I bought a portable dvd player which cost $70 and I know it can help her to entertain the kids and she can used this to let the kids watch some educational videos.
Sala set
Believe it or not ,we don't chair and table before but when my ate was able to work in a public school as a teacher and she spent her firs loan to our house coz we build a new house which near at the barangay and I was assigned to buy the things we need .I bought a sala set cost $50. Before we sat at the floor made of bamboo and our sala was our dining at thesame time our sleeping area .We only had a small area a close one which we changed our clothes .When I got promoted and my salary was increasing from $3 per day became $5.2 a day and it gives me an advantage to save more and bought the other things which my family needed.
Kitchen Utensils and other things we need
Since I was assigned to buy the other things we need and I bought a dish rack which cost $26 and other kitchen utensils like plates ,cups ,glasses and etcera and I forgot how much the money I spent for it.Aside of kitchen utensils I was able to bought some curtains,blankets ,pillows .
Gifts for my family
Every year I need to prepare their birthdays ,imagine we are 9 siblings plus our parents so I need to prepared a celebrations for 12 birthdays every year but I did'nt include mine so I prepared 11 birhdays celebrations.Preparing something for my family is my way of giving them gifts ,I am 3rd from the eldest and I wanted to give a birthday celebrations especially to my younger siblings as I wanted to them to experienced havings preparations and gifts for their birthdays.Not only for birthdays but every christmas also I prepared gifts for them.Seeing those happy faces everytime I gave something to them like toys and clothes which our parents can't afford to buy for us ,and as their ate(elder sister)I wanted them to experienced what I never experience before.Speaking of toys I never experienced my parents buying toys for me ,since I loved doll I am the one who made a doll ,I made a paper doll and a doll made of soil .When I let my youngers siblings experienced of having many toys .When the store I was working will going to have sale ,I always bought for my siblings .I know as a kid we love to play thats why I qas trying to give them what toys there are wishing.
When I started working I always put in my minds whats my purposes and reasons for my hardwork ,I wanted to give my family a better life although this achievements I made was not truly a big one but I was happy because of my 6 years of working I was able to experienced them the things that I was wishing before.
And now that I had my own family I felt guilty everytime I learned that my family are having a problem especially the financial coz I felt so useless,I can't help them ,honestly there were times that I felt I don't wanted to contact them coz if theres anyway problem I can't do anything to help them .Good thing that my other siblings was there to help my family ,I am happy to know that my younger siblings was doing well for the family ,I am happy that they learned also to help each other tho there were times that they are fighting but as I always said to them ,at the end of the day ,we are a family and no one will love and help us as a family can give and we must help each other.
