Social media influencer and content creator Laureen Uy is one happy kid, after finally fulfilling one of her lifelong dreams to buy her very own beach lot.
In her latest vlog, Laureen shared that she's been saving up for this big investment for years. Together with her older brother Vince, she purchased a beautiful property in La Union.
She shared, “I've been saving up for this my whole life!
“Back to my Break My Style Days, actually high school pa lang ako, third year high school, I was already working and saving up money.
“Noong nag-college ako, I had Style Break, I was selling clothes also online. And I ask my dad if I could open an ATM account para at least lahat ng savings ko doon na malalagay. So, this was back in college.”
The YouTuber continued, “Even back then, I knew I was already saving up money, But I just didn't know kung para saan pa 'yun. I knew I wanted to save up for something big.
“It was when I turned 30 that I realized na ito pala 'yung pinag-iipunan ko. Ito 'yung big dream ko together with my brother (Vince Uy).
“And before, lagi ko sinasabi, sobrang gusto ko ng beach house. Ito na 'yung pinag-iipunan ko and I kept manifesting it and manifesting it, but I didn't know exactly, which area I wanted to buy a beach lot.
“I just knew like 'yun 'yung dream ko, magka-beach house.”
It was also during the start of COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020 that Laureen realized that she wanted to build a home in La Union.
According to her, the province's whole vibe is so different and special. Laureen explained, “So nung 2020, we were really staying at home and it was around late December 2020 and the whole of 2021 that we really, really fell in love with La Union--there's something about the vibe here.
“'Yung community also, like I love the people here. 'Yung sound ng dagat dito, even 'yung sand nila it's so different and I basically fell in love with this province.”
