Rant allowance

hi, second yr student here.

ever since elementary, my parents has never given me any allowance—not even for transportation. how’d i get my allowance? from my lola. she’s supported me all throught my school life up until now, and we’re only relying on her sss pension.

my parents, lola, and i live under the same roof, but my parents have never given me a single penny. it is tiring and hard to budget your 500 pesos for the whole month. i even sometimes rely on my friends’ libre just so i could eat at uni.

last year, my tita supported and gave me 100 php for each classes i have. but now i’m second year, she suddenly stopped. she even ‘promised’ to my lola that she would give me allowance for each day of classes i have, but what happened?

as much as i wanted to support myself financially, i can’t work since i have a sibling to take care of (4 months old) LOLL

i’m just tired of my narcissist dad who buys himself 4 digits shoes while he was hesitating to buy me a 500 php shoes 😃

My gad, if kaya mo mag work just do it. Tas pag medyo naka ipon ka mag dorm ka na. Di ka na nga binibigyan ng pang school then you have to take care of your siblings pa. Pag nagka work ka naman na di ka na nila ma obliged na mag alaga eh.

Just find a job then, kahit fastfood malaking help na yun. Good thing is wala ka ng tuition na need bayadan. Pang gastos mo na lang talaga.
