Sharon Cuneta Is Proud Of Miel Finishing HS, But Not Ready To Let Go For College Abroad

Sharon Cuneta recently shared the good news of her and her husband former Senator Kiko Pangilinan's youngest daughter Miel Pangilinan graduating from high school. She also expressed her reluctance in letting the young lady study college abroad.

"Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyy?!!!" the actress and singer known as the Megastar said in the caption of her Instagram post showing her daughter's graduation picture.

Sharon went on addressing Miel in her post, "Now you’re graduating and are going off to college na ren after a year-off to enjoy life first?!!!"

Miel will be following in the footsteps of her older sisters KC Concepcion (aka Kristina) and Frankie Pangilinan (aka Kakie), who opted to study in France and the United States, respectively.

KC graduated in 2007 with a bachelor's degree in International Corporate Communications with a minor in Theatre Arts from the American University of Paris.

Frankie, on the other hand, is currently enrolled at The New School in New York City taking up literature and anthropology.

But Miel will only be starting college after taking a year off. In other countries, this is called the gap year, when high school students opt to travel or pursue other interests before going to college.

Still, Sharon can't let go of Miel, saying in her caption, "Baby ko if there was really a time-traveling machine I’d invest my life savings in it so I could be with your baby-self and stay there forever!"

She then added, "But I am so very proud of you - and this High School completion didn’t come easy for you and many others - having to do lots of online stuff and dealing with Covid lockdowns…

"You guys just missed out on so much more of what life in high school should’ve been like…so I am grateful and just really so proud that you’ve reached this point."

Sharon went on expressing her adoration to her daughter, using her nickname for Miel: "I love you so very much, Yeyie ko…I cannot believe it! So beautiful and precious to Mama…

"Bunny you really wanna study abroad also? Here na lang pls pls pls?! Oh well…you know Dad & Mama will give you what you want, even if it’ll hurt to be away from you…"
