4) What were some of the challenges you faced in the past especially when you were studying ALS?

Ms. Kezia: As what I have mentioned in the prior question, there is clearly a need for more modules that the learners can use. And that time when I was still at ALS, we do not have electrical connection, so I have to study under a gas lamp at night. Since I cannot thoroughly study in the morning because I have to teach.

5) What advices/ tips can you give those who are currently studying ALS so that they can also achieve their goals in life?

Ms. Kezia: To all the ALS learners today, I am not going to give you extravagant tips. You only have to start with a desire first. Have a clear and spicific goal. Pray for God's will on your desire and start to plan for strategies you can use in order to achieve that desire. Never be side-tracked. You can't just let it slip from your grasp just because you are tempted by other things and you are distracted. Always remember, not a single minute on Facebook or Twitter or any social media applications, not a single minute of jamming with friends and "gala-gala" will ever be worth it compared to a single minute of serious study. And if things get rough (because it will always will!), do not ever doubt God's power. He can calm the storm in the ocean, certainly, He is equally powerful to calm the storm in you. Have faith and work hard.

6) Your parting statement, please.

Ms. Kezia: I am grateful to be given this opportunity to share to you my thoughts. I hope this is a blessing and you learned something from me. One last thing, if you got what you prayed for, thank God and remain humble. And if you don't, thank God and pick up yourself. The fight isn't over yet!

I would like to thank you, madam Kezia, for sharing me some of your precious time for this interview. Your story will surely inspire our readers. Maraming salamat po!
