In a separate post, Mercado, who received the Highest Distinction, shared her academic journey and affirmed that challenges should not hinder one’s goal.
“Natatandaan pa natin nang nagsimula ang klase noong 2022, nagkasakit po tayo ng COVID, ngunit ipinagpatuloy po natin ang pag-aaral ng iba’t ibang subjects sa kursong ito,” she said.
(To recall, when the class started in 2022, we caught COVID, but we continued studying different subjects in this course.)
“Education is a lifelong journey, as I always say. Matapos ang pagod at hirap, ang ating kaaalaman at mga aral na natutunan ay walang katumbas (after the fatigue and hardship, our knowledge and lessons learned are priceless),” added the public servant.
On the other hand, Sen. Bong Revilla took to Instagram to congratulate his wife.
“Pinahanga mo na naman ako, Mama, sa dedikasyon at pagsusumikap na nagbunga sa panibago mong tagumpay na ito! Pero sa totoo lang, ‘di na ako masyadong nagulat dahil kitang-kita naman na may pinagmanahan ang ating mga anak!” he expressed.
(You have impressed me once again, Mama, with the dedication and hard work that has resulted in this new success of yours! But honestly, I’m not too surprised because it’s obvious that our children have inherited something.)
