00:00 Good afternoon, Arnold.
00:01 And here in the last development of 9,
00:04 this is happening in Gupaan.
00:06 We have no choice.
00:08 For our This is Forecast update.
00:11 Before I joined the media,
00:13 I was just a simple kid dreaming.
00:16 My mom and their family are farmers.
00:19 My dad was working abroad,
00:21 like OFW.
00:22 He planted rice.
00:23 When we were in the fields,
00:25 we planted vegetables.
00:27 That was our food.
00:28 We would get vegetables for our food
00:30 and catch fish in the river.
00:33 I was just a kid when I was surprised
00:35 by the situation of my family.
00:37 And as the eldest of the siblings,
00:40 I needed to be strong.
00:42 From Cavite,
00:45 Mom, I'm leaving.
00:47 I left home to go to school.
00:49 I went to Manila to study and work.
00:54 I went to school 8-4
00:57 as a student assistant.
00:59 You'll see your classmates
01:01 who are still resting.
01:02 You should go home and rest.
01:03 And when she goes home,
01:07 instead of sleeping,
01:08 she'll help the small farm
01:09 that my mom used to work in.
01:11 I'll think of it.
01:12 When you reach a point of exhaustion,
01:14 you'll suddenly ask yourself,
01:16 "How many stones did I make?"
01:18 It's like your only wish
01:19 and your only prayer
01:21 that this won't last forever.
01:22 This will end.
01:23 That's how it is.
01:26 Even having our own television
01:28 was a miracle for us.
01:30 We don't have a television.
01:31 We don't have a TV.
01:33 We're watching TV
01:35 with our neighbors
01:36 who have a television.
01:37 And we're really closing the windows.
01:40 I think of myself as a small kid.
01:46 A small kid.
01:46 Because we're a poor family.
01:48 We really don't have
01:51 anything to be proud of
01:53 compared to what we had before.
01:56 Because of the simple life I grew up with,
01:59 my dreams are also simple.
02:01 I said that when I'm done,
02:04 I'll work in a factory in Armoni.
02:06 Not in my wildest imagination,
02:09 I dreamed of working in Manila.
02:11 But no matter how hard our path is,
02:14 I'm sure that we'll overcome it.
02:18 You have to be strong
02:19 to be able to take care of your life.
02:22 You have to finish your studies.
02:23 That's my goal.
02:25 That's why I was given the chance
02:28 to work in the media.
02:29 Our lives changed little by little.
02:33 The universe aligned
02:37 and our prayers were heard.
02:39 I started as a writer
02:40 until I became a reporter.
02:41 It's so nice to be in the Basilan.
02:43 It's so sticky!
02:47 And until now,
02:48 you're still wondering.
02:51 No one is in the way!
02:54 I always think that
02:58 this kind of life is a blessing
03:00 because you didn't ask for it,
03:02 but it was given to you.
03:04 So you should always be thankful
03:06 that I am blessed more than I can ask for.
03:10 That's why in every opportunity
03:14 that comes in my life,
03:16 I won't let it pass.
03:20 One of the places that I'm proud to visit
03:22 is our farm resort in Indang Cavite.
03:24 Balustre Serca.
03:29 I forgot to fry the fish.
03:42 Let's saute the garlic first.
03:44 Because I love cooking,
03:46 my next goal is to build a coffee shop here.
03:50 When it's spacious,
03:52 I'll put a small coffee shop here.
03:56 I just want to serve pasta,
03:59 Filipino snacks,
04:01 and Filipino dishes.
04:03 And I also want to cook.
04:05 Soon, God willing,
04:07 I'll put my mini coffee shop here.
04:10 Right here.
04:11 That's why for today's video,
04:14 I'll share something with you.
04:16 This is just a simple snack.
04:17 This is Palitaw.
04:19 I made this very simply.
04:22 This is one of the simplest snacks
04:24 that you can learn.
04:26 When you're new to this,
04:29 they prepare this because it's sticky.
04:31 So that it's good to share with your family.
04:35 Use the mixed glutinous rice and water
04:39 to make a dough of Palitaw.
04:41 Just mold it to form a round shape.
04:45 [music]
04:50 Just boil some water.
04:52 Once the water boils,
04:54 just drop the glutinous rice.
04:59 [music]
05:03 There, it's cooked.
05:05 Everything's clear now.
05:06 [music]
05:08 It's ready to be removed.
05:10 [music]
05:15 The next step is to make the Latik.
05:17 [music]
05:24 Boil and cook the coconut milk
05:25 until it's foamy and becomes Latik.
05:28 [music]
05:39 What makes it more delicious
05:41 is the sesame seed,
05:43 coconut milk, and sugar.
05:45 [music]
05:49 Wondering,
05:50 is our Palitaw ready to serve?
05:52 I'll serve it here.
05:55 There.
05:57 [music]
05:58 Mmm, it's delicious!
06:00 [music]
06:06 If I compare it to my life before,
06:09 I feel like I've improved a hundred percent.
06:12 [music]
06:14 If I talk to myself,
06:16 I'll say, "I'm so proud of you."
06:20 [music]
06:23 You've gone through a lot,
06:25 you've faced a lot of challenges along the way.
06:29 You think that everything is impossible.
06:32 Everything is impossible.
06:34 But everything you thought was impossible
06:36 seems to have happened.
06:38 [music]
06:40 [music]
06:42 So, wonder, remember,
06:44 keep in mind,
06:46 pray, and be patient,
06:48 everything will pass.
06:50 I've wondered!
06:52 [music]
