If you can dream it, Global Academy can help you achieve it. Whatever the challenge may be.

When the world tells you that you cannot, turn your back and prove them wrong.
This is the moral story that can be learned from this inspiring journey of a woman who did not lose hope in achieving her dreams.

When she was still a young girl at the age of 11, Maricel Apatan was with her uncle. They were on their way to draw water when they bumped into four men who were carrying their long weapons.

They were told to face down the ground until the four brutal men hacked his uncle in the neck which ended his life. Maricel was panicking and did not know what to do because these men were their neighbors.

She ran as fast as she could to escape the scene, but the went to chase her.

Maricel was crying out loud saying “Kuya, ‘wag po, ‘wag n’yo akong tagain! Maawa po kayo sa akin!”

But these men were drawn to the idea of ending her life as well. She lost consciousness and when she got backto her senses, she pretended to be dead because they were still there.

After the men had left, Maricel ran to her mother who was in shock when saw her daughter covered in blood.

Maricel survived, but his arms were taken off by the men.

Instead of blaming God because of what happened to her, she used it as an inspiration to become better.

Maricel studied hard with the help of some people, she went to school in the School for the Crippled Children whereas she was claimed as the best in computer, most courteous and most industrious. She found several ways to do things on her own without her hands.

Even without her hands, she was able to finish a degree in Hotel and Restaurant Management in 2008. But Maricel was determined to achieve more and in 2011, she finished another course as a chef.
She is indeed one of the role models that people should look at. Her determination to be the best at what she does despite of her imperfections is truly admiring!
