Hello everyone! How are you all? I hope you're doing fine :)

I've got this idea to @imanagrcltrst article thanks and sorry for the tag :)

You all know that I am a college student, a graduating one. Last one semester then I am now able to wear a black toga holding my certificate. Yes, by God's grace I will be able to graduate next year cum laude or not as long as I graduate that's all that matters.

Being a student, especially a college student isn't easy emotionally, mentally, and financially. You need to have money to pay for the expenses. Books, uniforms, and the facilities have fees that we, the students need to pay. But I'm thankful that I am in the state university, we have free tuition. Despite having free tuition were still required to buy books which cost not lower than P300 ($6) and imagine we all have many subjects and when all required us to buy books, it costs us a lot. So aside from the money that our parents give to us, we need to have an extra allowance and a scholarship is one of the answers that every student need.

It's not easy to have a scholarship, fortunately, in my case, I don't need to apply for it since I graduated with high honors during my senior high school, it's automatic that I will be included in the scholarship of our congressman which is under by CHED. But my other classmates told me to come with them, they will be going to apply to CMCS which is under by one of our councilors here. So we took the exam. We passed the exam when they call all the passers for orientation, I didn't attend because I'm thinking that time that I am already a scholar of our congressman and maybe my name will be traced and we're not allowed to have multiple scholarships also I want to give a chance to others. I also don't want to be in trouble.

Even though our allowance is delayed always, I'm still grateful for it. Better late than none hehe. So I received 6k each semester. But because of the delay I always received my allowance in the first and second semesters together. I received my allowance (stipend) for my first year (1st and 2nd semesters) during my second year and last month I received my allowance for my second year. See? How delayed it is.

Where did I spend my allowance

When I received my first allowance, I am very happy because that is the first time that I will be receiving an allowance from my scholarship. One year of waiting hehe.

I gave some to my father and siblings. I also buy books that I don't have yet. I also gave money that is intended to buy groceries in our house. I also treat my friends since they know that I received allowance because it's posted on the group page of our university. And because I received it in December, I used some in buying gifts.

Last November 22, my allowance was released and we can claim it at our university.

Where did it go?

As you can see I received a total amount of P12,000. Here's where I spend it.

I buy donuts as pasalubong for my siblings and I also give them money.

Since we're living in my partner's place. I give some to his mother for the budget.

My two sisters are celebrating their birthdays the next day so I gave them money to buy foods that need for their celebrations. I also bought presents for them.

My partner's teeth were ruined so I told him to have dentures. We went to the dental clinic and inquire about the prices. Now he can smile widely hehe.

We're in an online class so books are not required. The rest of the money, I saved and add to my baby's baptism


I'm grateful that I am one of the scholars of CHED automatically for it's hard to apply through a walk-in. But when you are a scholar you need to deal with having a maintaining grade for you not to kick out of the scholarship program.

So if you are a scholar now, be grateful and don't lose you scholarship by studying well. But don't pressure yourself too much and just enjoy while learning.

Hello, Ate! Happy to be tagged in your article. :) Grabe, graduating ka na din pala? Dami n'yong graduating dito ah. Tapos may baby ka na din? Mukhang may madadagdag sa list ng mga batang kilala ko dito ah, haha~

Same 'dun sa books. Grabe, tandang-tanda ko pa din pinakamahal naming book which costs 466 pesos. Grabidad! Tapos ang subjects pa namin is di bumababa ng 10, typically is 12-13. Imagine? Buti may isko, kaya ayun. Medjo nakakampante. Pero medjo lang kasi nadi-delay minsan eh. 🙈
