I was once asked..."What is your biggest regret in life." I stopped, thought for a while and wondered...do I have one? When I got pregnant with my eldest, I was only 17. I was in my first year in college. So I had to stop, get married and be a mom. It was a struggle of proving to everybody that despite our young age, we can make our marriage work. So I tried all kinds of job that I know would help us. From direct selling, shoe making in Reebok, Administrative job in a construction company, Import/Export officer until I became a Purchasing and Logistics Manager in GrainPro Phils., Inc.
I could proudly say, I reached this level of my career with only my experience as my weapon. Until I realize how important education is. But education is not all about studying and getting good marks. It is really a means to discover new things which we don't know about and increase our knowledge. Then I realized, what I need is a diploma. That is my biggest regret, not having a diploma!
Now with the help of New Era Vantage Education Management, I am able to continue my studies. It's an Online University with a vision of becoming a world class institution with a unique Christian culture of excellence, discipline and service to humanity. I am now in my second year, taking up BSBA-Marketing Management. It's a distance learning with materials supplied, I can study at home but most of the time I do it during break time at work. Kudos to my office mates whose always there to support. I'm like a high school student, learning from my coaches. It's fun. I am more determined now more than ever to pursue my education with my family as my inspiration.
Wonderfull!, this inspired me to go back to school and leave behind my so called "regrets" too! Thanks! Hazel
