Part 3 of Palarong Pambansa 2012 Interview: Julie Ann Borneo Inspiring Gymnast from Leyte

It took some time to write this post because this is the last part of Special Education Philippines‘ interview with this wonderful, young girl. I am not sure if our paths will ever cross again. I would love to see her perform or accept a medal for the hard work she and the rest of her team has done to reach the Palarong Pambansa. Who knows?  Maybe she’ll become one of legendary gymnasts of Leyte? Maybe I might see her in the international arena representing the Philippines? But there’s also the other side of the coin. Maybe I won’t see her anymore.
