Actress Rica Peralejo goes back to school
By Isah V. Red
Believe it or not, Rica Peralejo is now an official freshman at Ateneo de Manila University.
"I am," she tells us. "I have long been wanting to go back to school, take up creative writing. I just didn't find the time."
Now 26, the star of the forthcoming horror flick Tiyanaks from Regal Entertainment finally decided she'd earn a degree before she turned 30.
And why creative writing?
"I have always wanted to write. Even when I was still a kid, I'd find myself writing short stories, essays, and poems," she says. "Now that I have the chance to develop that talent, I am pursuing it in a formal way."
Rica has yet to determine how many units she could squeeze into her very tight showbiz schedule. "I am crossing my fingers that the university allows me to take the minimum number of units," she gnarls. "What I need now is a miracle so I can cope with studies and my career."
Rica is a good example to many of her peers. There is nothing like having an education while sustaining a showbiz career. It's great to have a fallback position, because when showbiz projects dry up, you can still take up an employee position in a company courtesy of your diploma.
