I recently made a trip to UPLB to submit some additional requirements. I’m still holding on to hope, praying, wishing, and firmly believing that I can gain entry into graduate school. Pursuing my Master’s Degree is something I’m extremely passionate about, even though there are individuals trying to bring me down because they don’t believe in my potential. That’s life, filled with its ups and downs. Success doesn’t come without encountering failures, discrimination, and criticism along the way.

I’ve decided to use these negative sentiments, discrimination, and criticism as motivation to improve and ultimately succeed. I’ve grown weary of shedding tears and am determined to change my perspective on life. When your mind and heart are genuinely set on achieving your goals, you can overcome obstacles, even when there are naysayers trying to hinder your progress. I’ve learned to let their disbelief slide off me. I’m making a promise to myself that I will become a successful woman one day, not just through intelligence or bravado, but through hard work, perseverance, and unwavering faith in God. I’ll achieve it because I can. I’ll achieve it because I believe in myself. I’ll achieve it because I have God by my side. 🙏💪🎓
