“Mama! Gumraduate na ng high school yung anak mo!” she began her inspiring post.

The actress detailed how she went through four “jump exams” for different grade levels.

“Since grade school, naka 4 na jump exam nako sa ALS (grade 2 pumasa, grade 5 pumasa, grade 7 pumasa) and thank God 1x palang ako nag fail.”

“Super laking tulong talaga ng ALS program lalo na sa mga out of school youth at gusto pa rin makatapos ng pagaaral like me pero mas priority ang tunay na buhay,” she continued, expressing deep gratitude to the program for providing opportunities to learners like her who had to put education on hold due to life circumstances.

The actress, who is mostly seen in GMA Network, also acknowledged the people who supported her throughout the journey.

“And now, I can proudly say, ALS graduate ako,” she elatedly wrote.

Furthermore, Eunice dedicated her success to her late mother, saying, “Mama! Naka graduate nako. Di man ikaw ang kasama kong umakyat ng stage, pero alam kong proud ka sakin. Para sayo to.”

Eunice’s story was able to inspire many, offering a powerful reminder that with perseverance and a genuine desire to learn, even the toughest challenges can be overcome. It also serves as a reminder that dreams have no deadline.
