Class of 2022: Celebrities who graduated this year
Contrary to what others think, life in the spotlight is not all that glam. From sleepless nights to having zero privacy, being a celebrity is a tough job.
But despite these challenges, some celebrities were able to find time to prioritize their studies while being in the public eye. They finished their studies—some years later than usual (which is totally okay!)—proving that earning a bachelor's degree can be done even while juggling work.
Here are some celebrities who graduated this year.
Neri Miranda
The actress and entrepreneur graduated from the University of Baguio with a degree in Business Administration from the Expanded Tertiary Education Equivalency and Accreditation Program (ETEEAP).
She also shared photos from her graduation ceremony. In the caption, she thanked her husband for his support and for believing in her.
"Thankful ako sa asawa kong palaging andyan for me to support me. Masaya lang siya kahit nasa gilid lang at pinapalakpakan ako sa mga achievements ko. Mas magaan ang buhay kapag may nag eencourage sa'yo at naniniwala sa kakayanan mo," she said.
While Neri reminded that each individual is different, she encouraged her followers to strive harder and finish their studies.
"Kung kaya ko, mas kayo nyo," she said.
"Kung wala pang budget, mag ipon ka lang. Iba iba man ang journey natin, yung iba mas mauuna, may male-late lang konti, meron matagal talagang dumating kagaya ng sa akin. Hindi naging madali sa akin lahat ha? Pero dahil palagi akong positibo na darating ang para sa akin, naghintay lang ako at habang naghihintay, ginagawa kong productive ang sarili ko. Para kapag ibinigay na ni Lord ang tamang panahon para sa akin, I AM READY."
