🚀 My Journey So Far
2022 – I graduated from Sorsogon State University, majoring in Mechanical Engineering.
2023 – I took the Mechanical Engineering Board Exam for the first time, but I failed. Back then, I honestly didn’t know what I really wanted in life. I decided to open my own meat shop business to support myself and gain real-world experience., thinking maybe entrepreneurship was my path.
2024 – I tried the board exam again — twice — but failed once more. This was the hardest part of my life — I was tired, lost, and felt wasted. I started questioning myself if I was really meant to be an engineer. But deep down, I knew giving up wasn’t the answer. Looking back, Balancing my business and studies was challenging. I realized my heart wasn’t fully focused yet because I was still unsure of my direction.
2025 - I started to reflect deeply, I discovered my true passion — to pursue a career in the automotive industry as a future engineer. While managing my business, I am now reviewing again and studying the fundamentals of mechanical and automotive engineering to prepare for my next board exam. It’s not an easy path, but it’s shaping me to be stronger, wiser, and more focused than ever before.
