NOW this is a truly inspirational story.

Here’s an excerpt from the Philippine Daily Inquirer article on University of the Philippines-Diliman student Mikaela Irene Fudolig:

Mikaela said that at three, she already had a keen interest in science. She recalled enjoying the times her mother would take her to the UP Botanical Garden and point out to her the different plant families.

“We also grew mongo seedlings and conducted small experiments. I was fascinated with how nature and science worked even back then,” she said.

    Congratulations to Mikaela! I hope you’ll contribute something for the Filipinos. The greatest personalities in science like Albert Einstein and Michael Faraday were awed by the ordinary, the simple and the mundane things of the physical world. Search for your own which befits your gift.

    PS.

    Don’t commit the same mistake that we did by going to grad school. Bart Simpson will laugh at you. (LOL)

    mabuhay ka sampu ng mga taong nagtagumpay at magtatagumpay pa lamang sa kani-kanilang larangan.

    ang hamon ng buhay ay wala sa loob ng silid aralan. ang pagsusulit ng pag-iral sa mundo ay hindi masusukat sa papel at lapis.

    ito ang mga hamon na kakaharapin mo sa mga susunod na araw at taon. maging handa ka nawa sa bawat sandali katulad ng pagiging handa mo sa bawat oras sa panahon ng iyong pag-aaral.

    hangad ko ang tagumpay mo hindi lamang bilang mag-aaral kundi pati na rin bilang TAO.
