Patricia Linares, a Unisacred Biomedicine student in Bauru (SP), received a scholarship to the United Kingdom after being harassed by her colleagues. This Saturday (1st), she took to social media to make her dream of studying abroad come true and gave an encouraging message to the public. Recently, three university students mocked Patricia’s age, saying she should have “retired” by now.
“When some girls make fun of you in college for studying over 40…you will fulfill your dream of studying abroad!”says the text that appears above the video posted on TikTok.
Besides celebrating the new phase, Patricia inspired her followers to follow their dreams. “You are thinking, you don’t have the courage, you are in your dream, you don’t want it because of your age, then what are we going to do? Age does not define us. Age is just a number. So let’s fulfill our dream because life doesn’t wait. Shine like this, study, learn and evolve”he said.
