The post reads:

"After matriculating I didn't know what I wanted to study and found myself doing something I didn't like for the sake of being a university student. Two years in, I had to decide if I was going to continue doing something I didn't have a passion for or forget about the years lost and go after my dream.

“I chose my dream. I had to look at my peers graduate in record time thinking I'll never get there but God kept me through the sleepless nights and what seemed to be a never ending road. Countless disappointments and bitter moments but all was worth it because I'm doing the one thing I've always wanted to do. My message to everyone is, don't neglect your dreams.”

In another story about education, YEN News reported that South African youth are slowly but surely grabbing education by the horns and becoming graduates.

A young lady has just jumped on the bandwagon and joined the rest of Mzansi's graduates.

Taking to Twitter, @Mcloopz_ shared an inspirational post about becoming a graduate. Her heartwarming post included some snaps of herself in her cap and gown and even one of her folks standing beside her looking as proud as ever.
