Chiu was among the thousands of students who was granted a high school diploma because she passed the Department of Education’s alternative learning system test.
The agency declared that she had passed their high school accreditation standards.
In her graduation address, the young actress bursted into tears because she was finally able to finish secondary education.
“Lagi nating tatandaan na ang kahalagahan ng buhay ay hindi lang natin mararating sa ating sarili. Libre hong mangarap. Sa lahat ng may gustong abutin sa buhay, isipin na lang ho natin na hindi imposibleng mangarap katulad ko. Pinangarap kong makapagtapos ng pag-aaral at ito natapos ko na kaya congratulations po sa ating lahat,” she said.Talking to “Showbiz News Ngayon,” Chiu revealed that it was actually her grandmother’s wish for her to finish school even before she ventured into the entertainment world.
“Ang sarap ng pakiramdam. Ang saya dahil ang tagal ko ng gustong makagraduate and ito talaga ang pinangarap ng lola ko sa akin bago ako pumasok ng show biz. Sana matapos ako kahit high school manlang. Ito na may gift na ako sa kanya,” Chiu said.
Amid her success, Chiu disclosed that it was not easy to study and work at the same time.
“Pag dinner break, nag-aaral na lang. After ko basahin ang script, nagbabasa naman ako ng mga lessons ko. Kapag walang work, nag-aaral ako, nagrereview para sa exam,” she related.
The young star also belied the notion that all artists do not dream of finishing their studies.
“Hindi naman biro ang showbiz to education. Parang ang baba ng tingin sa akin ng mga tao. Sabi kasi nila pag artista ka parang easy money, angd dali so hindi na sila nag-aaral. Ang bobo, walang pinag-aralan. Ako gusto ko ipakita na nag-aaral din naman kami. May mga pangarap din naman kami na makapagtapos,” she said.
Nonetheless, Chiu was delighted for what she has achieved.
“Proud lang ako sa sarili ko na nakapagtapos ako kahit high school na iniisip ko dati na hindi ko magagawa. Pero ayun natapos siya,” she said.
