A year after I became a part of the DBP family, I received the biggest amount of money which I can call as my own. Yeah, this is one of the best thing about DBP, about being in a GOCC working for the development of this country. ♥
We call it Cash Gift which is supposedly be given during December for the Christmas Season. But then, it was always given about 2 months earlier before the expected date. The reason why is for the parents/employees to compensate with their children’s tuition fees for the next semestral period. Even contractuals like me received the same amount- and i love them for that. Even the janitors, security guards, and the drivers enjoy the same privileges. This so called cash gift is equivalent to P35,000.00 and was given religiously every October of the year. For this year, it was on the 15th of October.
The question now would probably be:
What will I do with that P35k?
This is how I planned to spend it:
- P20,000.00 will be for my little brother’s tuition fee for PATTS for his second semester. He’s taking up BS Avionics in the said college and I’m proud that he’s doing really well on his course. Mind you, he’s first sem’s final grade was such a blast with an average of 1.725. He’s qualified for the 50% scholarship offered by the college. Hopefully, it will pursue. -talking about a proud sister here.
- P5,000.00 is alloted to pay my tita, to whom we are indebted for almost how many months already. Shy*
- P10,000.00 will be all my mine. harhar! -as i’ve said above, this is how i planned it but will not always be the case. 
For all I know right now, there is only P4,000.00 remaining balance in my ATM card as opposed to the expected P10k. As long as it is for the happiness of my family, i really don’t mind spending it. ♥ Until next year my dear DBP. ♥ Thanks a lot.
