STUDY, STUDY: With showbiz work in relaxed mode and one major network closed down, what advice can we offer all the young actors out there whose careers have been suspended in mid-air?
I say, go back to school. Now is the best time for young people in showbiz to pick up their books once again and study.
With time on their hands and calendars wanting in things to do, they can now focus on other worthwhile activities as finishing high school or starting college.
Many of today’s young actors are in that stage of youth when they should be schooling. They take advantage of youth’s prime, between the ages of 14 to 20, when they’re in full bloom, which is a premium in a showbiz career. Technically, those years are also their formative years as students.
This break caused by COVID-19 pandemic can just be the best excuse to resume their education in an academic setting.
Finish school, get a degree. Walk tall and confident.

EDUCATION IMPORTANT: Rising actor McCoy de Leon has reportedly re-enrolled as an Engineering student. The young actor is also an entrepreneur, running a lugaw store in Manila.
It’s a good thing that despite her busy schedule even long before COVID, Kathryn Bernardo has been going to college as a Business Management major.
Other young actors should follow in the example of these two. The likes of Daniel Padilla, James Reid, Enrique Gil, Liza Soberano, Barbie Forteza, Alden Richards, Julia Montes.
