Delayed, But Never Denied. 🎓
After graduating SHS, I never planned to go to college. I just wanted to work and earn money. My mom enrolled me anyway, but I dropped out and stopped studying for 1 year.
After working, I realized how important education truly is. So I chose the harder path: working full-time while studying for 4 years.
Those 4 years weren’t easy. They were filled with sleepless nights, deadlines, missed meals, exhaustion, and moments when I questioned if I could keep going. But I never doubted that God had a purpose for me.
Life is not a race. My batchmates and even my younger brother graduated before me, but instead of comparing myself, I chose to be inspired. We all have different timelines, different battles, and different stories. This is mine.
To my OM, TL, and workmates, thank you for believing in me while I balanced work and school.
To my professors and deans, thank you for your patience, understanding, and for making it possible for me to continue my education despite my work schedule.
To my classmates, thank you for every helping hand and for never making me feel alone.
To my mom and dad, thank you for believing in me and never giving up on me.
To my US client, thank you for trusting me. The opportunity you gave me changed my life and made it possible for me to finish college.
“Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.” — Mark 11:24
God always keeps His promises.
If you’re still fighting for your dreams, don’t give up. Your story isn’t over yet. One day, you’ll look back on every sacrifice and realize it was all worth it.
After many setbacks and countless attempts, I finally earned the diploma I once thought I’d never have.
Signing off as your working student. 🧑🎓❤️
