Worth it nga ba?

To my husband, we’re doing a great job—giving our kids the future they deserve.

1. People mind their own business
No chismis. No pakialam. Everyone respects personal space.
2. Small talk is everywhere
Even strangers will say “Hi, how are you?” — and they actually expect a response 😅
3. DIY is life
You clean, fix, assemble… everything. No “pa-help” culture like back home.
4. Self-service is normal
Even at petrol stations — you do it yourself. No attendants.
5. Gravy is not free 😭
Something so small… but such a big shock.
6. Work-life balance is REAL
When work ends, it ends. Family and rest come first.
7. Coffee is a daily ritual ☕
Not optional. It’s part of the lifestyle.
8. You check the weather every day
Because it can change FAST — parang mood lang 😅
9. Rules are strictly followed
Especially on the road. No warnings — fines come straight to your mailbox.
10. Being on time is a MUST
Late = disrespectful. Simple as that.
11. Budgeting is a MUST 💸
No unnecessary spending. Every dollar counts — rent, bills, groceries… you learn to prioritise.
12. Lunch box is life 🥡
You bring your own food and eat anywhere — sa bench, sa car, kahit saan. Tipid and practical.
13. Loneliness hits different
No extended family, no instant support system. You really learn to be strong.
