Geneva Cruz goes back to college: ‘There's no such thing as being too late!’
Geneva Cruz is back in university!
The singer and actress shared her happy news on Instagram, posting a carousel of photos at the Philippine Christian University in Manila. The proud student also shared a snap of her school ID.
Geneva is earning her bachelor’s degree in business administration, and in her caption, she shared she was once an AB Literature student at the University of Santo Tomas.
"But life had a different plan for me, and that’s to become a mother first," Geneva wrote.
Interestingly, what put a pause in her education is what is now driving Geneva to pursue it again.
"I have no regrets because I have a beautiful son. However, having a ten-year-old daughter was the motivation I needed to prioritize finishing a degree," the singer said.
“I strongly believe in setting a positive example for my children, which drives me to dedicate time to pursuing my educational goals. It took me a long time to finally return to school and strive to complete college,” Geneva added.
In her lengthy caption, Geneva thanked singer and actor Ronnie Liang “for our memorable conversation backstage at the Luneta Grandstand and for reminding me of the powerful impact education has on those who choose to educate and elevate themselves.”
She also thanked her two kids, parents, and sisters, and dedicated her pursuit to her deceased mother.
“Go after your goals—there's no such thing as being too late!” She reminded her followers.
“Don’t even consider your degree a pass or a way to a great life. The point is not that a degree is meaningless but that it should have great value or uphold something of great importance to you. People hire or do business with you based on your skills, attitude, and work ethic rather than just your degree,” she said.
Geneva was recently a guest star on “Abot-Kamay na Pangarap” and “Walang Matigas na Pulis sa Matinik na Misis.”
Aside from being a singer and actress, Geneva is a mom to Heaven and London.
She appeared on the “It’s Showtime” segment EXpecially For You in May, where ex-husband KC Montero helped her find a new love.
