Take (Not) The Road Less Traveled

Speech of Mikaela Irene Fudolig, 16 years old, on April 22, 2007 during UP Graduation Ceremonies. She graduated Summa cum laude, BS Physics at UP Diliman.

“… Take NOT the road less traveled. Rather, MAKE new roads, BLAZE new trails, FIND new routes to your dreams. Unlike the track-beaters in campus who see where they’re going, we may not know how far we can go. But if we are brave, defiant searchers of excellence, we will go far. Explore possibilities, that others may get a similar chance. I have tried it myself. And I’m speaking to you now.”
