Eating arroz caldo at The Philippine Airlines Mabuhay Lounge has become a tradition for my family whenever we travel. It is fascinating that the simple breakfast staple I buy for P25 at my local park can be elevated to a luxury. I am aware of how fortunate I am to have been given the privilege of traveling with them to Singapore to celebrate my mother's birthday. I am unemployed so I am unable to afford this without their support. I am very lucky to be able to have a short break from reality, and I am praying that by the time I get back, I will already have job interviews to attend. I really miss working, so I hope to be able to join the workforce soon. For now, I am enjoying my porridge while we await our flight. It is a priceless family memory.
