“Ano po ang iyong pinakakinatatakutan?”

“As a student, since graduating [na] ako, the best answer would be, ‘Would I make it on time? Makaka-graduate ba ako on time?’ Kasi lalo na ngayon, humihirap na ‘yung mga requirements namin. Bukod doon, mayroon pa kaming thesis to worry about.”

“How do you deal with this fear?”

“Number one, the best thing I could do is to better myself. How do I do that? Nag-aaral ako. Kailangan [‘yan] kasi that’s the only way I could make it through this year kasi wala namang magagawa ‘yung pag-iiyak ko, wala namang magagawa ‘yung pagrereklamo ko. The best way is to move forward.”

“What is your advice to those who are facing the same fear?”

“I’m not saying [na] simple ‘to, pero the first thing they have to do is to stay calm, and number two, evaluate their options, evaluate their situation. From that evaluation, ano ‘yung steps na kailangan nilang kunin? Proseso ‘yan. […] Hindi mo masusolusyonan ‘yung problema mo kung ‘di mo aalamin kung ano ba ‘yung sitwasyon mo.”
