Content Creator Shares Struggles on the Road to Graduation
A content creator shared the tough journey he went through before finally earning his college diploma.
Recently, Fran Cis Noel, a Facebook user, shared a heartfelt post about the challenges he faced before finishing his education. The post immediately spread like wildfire on social media and elicited comments from netizens.
Fran had to juggle various jobs just to support himself before he graduated. He sold toys, clothes, snacks, rice meals, and even bagoong and empanadas. At times, he had to rely on selling graham balls and pastil to make ends meet.

No matter what it took, he pushed forward with the goal of getting his diploma in mind. There were moments when he felt completely alone. His family couldn’t afford to send him to school, so he took it upon himself to find a way.
Despite being bullied for his appearance and health condition, he stayed strong. When he had nowhere to sleep, he humbled himself and asked others for help. He didn’t let pride get in the way of his dreams.

Noel admitted that there were days when he complained and felt like giving up. But deep down, he never stopped wanting to finish his studies. Fran finally reached his goal through hard work and faith.

“Dipkarte” (Diskarte/Diploma)
Minsan Toy Vendor, Minsan Clothing, Minsan Bagoong, Minsan Meryenda, Minsan Empanada, Minsan Graham Balls, Minsan Rice Meal, at Minsan Pastil.
Pero nilapit ko yung sarili ko sa Diploma.
Nung sinabi nilang hindi nila ako kaya pag aralin, sinubukan ko lang.
Nung sinabi na ma-bubully raw ako kasi isa lang baga ko at sa itsura, tinatagan ko yung dibdib ko.
Nung wala akong matulugan habang nag aaral ako, kinapalan ko muka ko, saan saan ako nakitulog.
At nung walang wala talaga, Hala pasukin ang lahat para maigapang ang pangangailangan.
Umangal ako at Dumaing ako, “Oo”. Tao lang ako e, Ngunit sa kabila ng lahat ng yun gusto ko makatapos.
Gusto ko ipagbigay alam sa mga KABATAAN na wala sa Talino, Lakas, nasa Paniniwala mo yan at Lawak ng Pangarap.
Tiyagain mo lang, Natural mapanghinaan.
Naniniwala ako sayo, Hihintayin kita naka Toga!. Ajaaa”
