KIM CHIU was in 4th year high school when she joined PBB Teens. She never got to finish it after she won and became busy with showbiz. Now, almost 5 years later, she finally graduated at the Folk Arts Theatre last Thursday. “Pangarap ko talagang makatapos ng pag-aaral kaya tinuloy ko ang high school sa alternative learning program ng Dept. Of Education,” she says. “Heto, natapos ko rin at ang sarap ng pakiramdam kasi ito talaga ang pangako ko sa lola ko, to finish high school. Hindi mo masisisi ang mga artistang tumigil agad sa pag-aaral kasi may easy money na sila kahit di nakatapos ng high school. Ako, pinagtiyagaan ko talaga. Kapag wala akong taping, I study my lessons lalo’t may exam.”
So what’s next? “Gusto kong tumuloy sa college. I want to take up business management dahil plan ko na magkaroon ng sarili kong mga negosyo in the future. As of now, tuloy rin ako sa ‘Your Song’ and will soon start a new soap, ‘Binondo Girl’.”
