“2.5 years has been an amazing journey for me because while I’m doing BIGO, I’m also studying. And I’m very proud that for the first one year and a half years of me doing BIGO, it financed my education. I’m very proud to say I just graduated marketing management as a Magna cum laude. So imagine, I used to go live at night, graveyard shift and go to school the next day without any sleep. However it was all worthwhile,      you don’t just work at BIGO, you also get to mingle with other people. They motivate you, they give you strength. Sometimes, kahit pagod ka na, may nanunood sayo, there’s always someone watching.” Says winner (Jannah Bocatiya, bigo id: jfaye)
