Carmina is traveling to the United States to spend time with her family. My dad planned a family gathering for Mother's Day at their favorite Pinoy restaurant . Since reservations aren’t possible, we arrived an hour early to ensure we could get a table for twelve before everyone else showed up. As my dad approached Isla Grand , the branch we visited in Pleasant Hills, California , the host at the door said they could prepare a table for twelve at five o'clock. Later, the server called my dad's name and guided us to our table. The place was bustling with people enjoying meals and celebrating Mother's Day. On our first visit to Isla Grand, I was captivated by the décor, noticing many native items that gave the place a fancy yet authentic Filipino feel. They usually have a live band, but unfortunately, there was no entertainment the night we went. My family had spoken highly of Isla Grand and encouraged us to try the Filipino dishes we’ve been missing from back home. Lech...
Living in the Philippines doesn’t mean you don’t do your own house chorus even if you have someone working for you at your home doesn’t necessary mean their doing all your work for you.
I have friends who think when you live in the Philippines you live like a Princess or in a royal highness life where they serve you off like what they see in the movies.
I live opposite of what people imagine in their heads living in California all my life and being independent at a very young age to be hard working to pay what you felt your parents couldn’t afford for you made you work enough what expenses you can buy from your own earning.
Sometimes people believe or hear that when there are house hold employees working in your home you don’t have the same responsibilities as you have living in California.
Ever since I moved off from California I kept myself away from living what other people do by depending on the workers in my heart I know I will one day move back to my hometown and I don’t want to have a hard time when that time comes.
Just like anyone else I do my own laundry, prepare my food and do regular house chorus the only thing I don’t do is drive. I have a driver provided for me to use.
I live like how I am to live in California but doing the same thing in the Philippines just in a different environment and lifestyle everyone is so use too.
We live in a life that other may compare each other in how they live and which pattern they live daily.
We in the long run we do the same daily task just living in another country which is provided different quality on items you purchase or it may be more high technology based on how we all live.
Either way we work with our hands not by our mouth by telling someone else to do our work.
