First of all, i just want to great all of you a happy,blessed and safe day ahead. Thank you for those still dropping by to check mine, its really mean a lot to me. Thank you too for cheering me up and believing that I can do it. You guys are my inspiration everytime im doing my articles, im always trying my best hoping that i can do it more better day by day.

NEVER EXPECT UNEXPECTED:

When your expecting something to happen but yet it will not the way you want it to be, its really hurtful. Expecting something your believing that it will gonna happened always as what you think but isn't? It's really awful but life must go on no matter what, believe in yourself first and everything will be fine. We are smart in our own way. Time will come, you will be proud of who you really are!

UNEXPECTED:

Sometimes we are the one who making ourselves being hurt. Sometimes over thinking lead us in emotional moment. Sometimes we are over acting for something that we are really not sure it will last. Sometimes something happened unexpected. (So dont expect too much self, its only temporary and not always! Lol)

My Bahay Kubo:

Building a simple house is my big dream after we are affected in fire from our neighbour's years ago , we really cant afford to renovate our house right away. Living in a rural place is really hard but still we get use in it. We always encounter burning scenes like buildings and houses near from us, but still we cant move in another place due to financial problem. We are living in semi-squatter area at the moment but nice and safe place too.

Building our bahay kubo is not easy as what im expecting for 😔 all i thought is because its just simple and small, it cant cost me less but im wrong. We are just simple citizens that just earn good for our everyday expenses . Although im working in abroad as NANNY but still not enough.

Because our roof is made of "yero" this is how it looks like after many years. One rainy day, i call to my brother through video call and i see a lot of kitchen stuff in the floor (tabo, palanggana, kaldero, etc.)

Me: Tol anong meron at bakit nagkalat ang mga gamit sa sahig? Bakit di kayo nagliligpit?

Brother: Sis tag ulan kasi ngayon dito sa Taguig may tumutulo sa bubong kaya ganyan.

Pamangkin: Tita alam niyo po kapag malakas ang ulan parang meron concert 😂 nakadepende ang tunog sa lakas ng ulan lol

Me: (speechless) ah ok, sige mag iingat kayo palagi dyan.

(deep inside im crying secretly, I'm blaming myself for everything, I already have the budget for renovating but yet i put it in some investment but i lost it.)

After that day, i cant sleep well thinking of them (feeling sad) And because my flight returning back in the Philippines is postponed so i decide to send all my savings to my brother to start to build our Bahay Kubo .

My first priority is to change our roof only but the ending is it become almost everything is in renovation due to weak foundation of our house. So I agreed for the next plan, just follow what our carpenters suggestion.

Sorry for my Bahay Kubo tour,i know its not worth to show but im just feel happy for my simple achievements that i can go back in the Philippines with pride even i dont have enough money on my pocket, lol.

Waiting for my salary to proceed to the next step of our renovation. I believe in God that when its His will, it will be no matter what Insha Allah.

Closing thoughts:

Always be proud of your decision. Always have faith to God that there is no imposible when it His will. Family is the most important after all.

Once again thank you so much for reading my 6th article, hoping that it doesn't bother you a lot. Im trying to do my best in every article i made. Hoping that i can do the best too soon.

Until the next time, God bless us all and always be safe where ever you are at the moment ❤
