Sa interbyu sa DXDC RMN Davao kang Diamante, gisaysay niini nga isip usa ka student athlete, wala nahimong sayon ang iyahang gi-agian diin grabe nga desiplina sa kaugalingon ang iyang gihimo ilabi na sa pagbalanse sa iyang oras.
“I’ve been a student athlete all my life. Dili tanan leisure and enjoyment that other people of my age can enjoy I can also enjoy. It really entailed a lot of sacrifice and discipline. Maingon gyud nako nga being a student athlete was worth it because daghan kaayo sya’g experiences nga makatabang to help us grow holistically,” saysay niini.
Matud sa Dabawenyo, nag-online review kini sa pagpangandam sa exam diin ang goal lamang niini mao ang makapasar ug makakuha og lisensya aron niini ma-practice ang iyang profession aron nga makatabang sa uban.
“It really depended on how confident I was in my solutions and buti na man by the grace of God who guided me throughout the exam, the result was favorable. I’m just really also thankful na for some reason, my name is also there in the top 10,” sulti niini.
Nag-unang gipasalamatan ni Diamante ang iyang ginikanan ug ang mga tawo nga nahimong kabahin sa iyahang pagtuon.
“Number one gyud (nga akong inspirasyon) akong parents because they’ve been really supporting me ever since. So, growing up, they would support us when we have tournament locally, here sa Davao or anywhere in the Philippines or even abroad while studying at the young age. They’re also committed to that lifestyle that we had. So, they sacrificed a lot, and I think, this is one way that I could show them na all their sacrifices really meant something to us, something to me,” dugang ni Diamante.
Base sa Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) Board, sa 20,407 examinees, 8,029 lamang o 39.34% ang nakapasar sa maong exam.
