Pharmacist and content creator Arshie Larga expressed gratitude after fulfilling his parents’ dream and giving back for their hard work and sacrifices.
On Sunday, December 21, the online personality shared how their family pharmacy store has been transformed into a four-storey building, thanks to his savings, his parents’ efforts and the brands he has collaborated with.
“From ‘bahala na’ to ‘thank you, Lord — tapos na.’ Nagsimula lang ‘to sa usapan namin ng parents ko about turning our current structure into a four-storey building. Matagal na nila itong pangarap, pero laging nauudlot dahil sa budget. Ayaw rin nilang umutang sa bangko,” Arshie shared.
“Blessed enough ako na may savings, kaya nitong January 2025, sinimulan namin ang construction. Malaking tulong na civil engineer ang tatay ko, kaya hands-on siya sa papers, requirements, at buong construction. Hindi naging madali ang journey — locked-in ang parents ko sa site habang ako naman ang gumagawa ng paraan para ma-fund ang project,” he added.
The content creator then gave a shout-out to his parents for their help, thanking them for their “time, effort, and attention” in fulfilling what he called his “biggest investment this 2025.”
“Kay Tatay, salamat po at talagang tinutukan mo itong project from start to finish. (P.S. Kung may gusto po kayong ipagawa sa tatay ko, here’s his email: [email protected].),” Arshie said.
“Kay Nanay naman, salamat po dahil kahit madalas akong wala sa botika, naiintindihan mo kung bakit ko ito ginagawa. Talagang nag-sacrifice kayo ng time and energy para dito,” the content creator added.
He also thanked the brands he has collaborated with and his supporters, who have continued to support him as his content evolved from pharmacy-related posts to lifestyle content.
“Maraming salamat din sa mga brands na patuloy na nagtitiwala sa’kin at nagbibigay sa’kin ng projects. Kung wala kayo, wala rin kaming pampagawa nito. (More pa po this 2026). Lastly, salamat po sa lahat ng taong patuloy na sumusuporta sa’kin. Kahit nag-evolve na ang content ko — from pharmacy, to travel, to lifestyle — nandiyan pa rin kayo,” Arshie said.
“To be honest, this project — aside from being an investment — is my way of repaying my parents for all their hard work and for helping fulfill their long-time dream,” he concluded.
Arshie’s post has garnered 90,000 likes and reactions, 1,400 comments and over 730 shares, with many Filipinos expressing their support.
“Nakaka-proud. Congrats,” a Facebook user commented.
“Deserve ng one of my favorite [vloggers],” another wrote.

“Congratulations!!! Fruit of your Labor!!!” another wrote.
Arshie also gave a glimpse of their four-storey building in a video.
“Kept this a secret for almost a year kasi gusto kong i-share kapag tapos na. Finally, I can share my biggest investment this 2025. THANK YOU SO MUCH PO, LORD!” he said in a post.
