C. Personal

Adjectives that best describe you: Rationally irrational, moody, sometimes indecisive, heart-over-head type!

Fashion: Depends on what moood I am in. When I’m in the mood to dress up, I do dress up talaga. Sometimes when an occassion calls for it, kahit wala sa mood, I’m forced to dress up formally. But when going out like in malls-casual. Jeans, top, comfy shoes/flip-flops and jacket

Fashion icon: Hahaha! Any fashion magazine! No particular person!

Most treasured item: Nothing in particular but everything that’s given to me, I treasure. I put value in the fact that that person had a reason why he/she gave me that item and that makes it special.

Pet Peeves: People murmuring, tardy people, slow-moving people (makupad, mabagal kumilos!)

Fears: Rats -- big rats and house pests like roaches, and the death of anyone among my loved ones

Unforgettable childhood memory: When we were still living with my grandparents in Novaliches, every afternoon, my lola would always ask us to sleep after lunch then after such, that’s the only time they’ll allow us to go out in the streets to play. Everytime, I’d always trick my lola and pretend to be asleep (tulo laway and snoring kunyare) then when I hear my playmates yelling outside they’d throw little stones on our roof. That’s the signal, for me to wake up! I will then open my eyes and tell lola “La, ang sarap ng tulog ko, ganda ng panaginip ko”. Then she’ll allow me to go out.

Another unforgettable memory was when we were still in Novaliches also, my Lolo would take us to Green View subdivision in Fairview every Saturday to swim.

We go there at 8am and swim til 12nn or 1pm.And most of the time, when we still dont want to go home, we’ll try to be underwater for a minute then go up to gasp for air, then go down again and pretend to not hear our lolo (kasi nga nasa water kami, kunyare di namin siya naririnig) Then pag ginutom na kami, aahon na kami...We don’t rinse there or dress up anymore before going home, we ride daddy’s (or si Lolo) Estrada Pick-up naka-swimsuit and trunks pa kaming magkakapatid! Nakabalot lang ng towel. As soon as we get home, we eat lunch sa garden (lola makes this special set-up every weekend), then pagbusog na, tulog na! Kailan maliligo? Pagkagising na...amoy chlorine kaming lahat.

Goals: To finish school of course and succeed in everything I engage in. Achieve happiness in everything.

Role Model: Donita Rose. She seems to have everything and yet she remained kind-hearted and grateful and faithful to her Creator.

II. Q & A

Why did you enter show business?
Actually napasubo lang. I was into modeling first. then I landed a role in GMA’s station ID then after a couple of months I was casted for Kakabakaba. My parents thought of making me join it since it tapes every Saturdays lang naman. No conflict with school.

What do you consider as the turning point in your career?
I dont know yet. I still cant assess my career status. I treat it like this-every project I get, I’m grateful for because it gives me the chance to explore the diffrent fields in the industry.

If you weren’t in showbiz, what kind of career
would you have?
Of course I’d be a full time student but if you’re asking what job I\'d like to have - maybe I’d be a pre-school teacher. I like kids and I just recently discovered that it’s worth the tire when they remember and understood something you taught. Cute...

What is your biggest frustration/regret?
I’ve committed several mistakes in my life. I guess it’s part of the learning process. There have been so many instances wherein I lost the battle but I make it a point to win the lesson. I try not to regret anything. Because in the first place it has been my choice that had led me to that situation and though it didnt turn out as good as i expected it to be, I know there’s a reason for its occurence and God is making me learn something from it.

What do most people don’t know about you? I’m as normal as everyone else. I have flaws. I have irrational feelings at times. I can also be so unreasonable. I am a bit indecisive. Moody. And I have insecurities too.

What is your most unforgettable experience?
It happened like fourth quarter of last year I think before I turned 17. I was asleep and dreaming that I was lying on my bed and my hips, behind and thighs were a bit warm and then I suddenly woke up, I was feeling exactly what I felt in my dream. And what was warm was my pee! I was peeing on my bed! I rushed to my bathroom tapos tawa ako ng tawa. Ang tanda tanda ko na, ngayon pa ako nawiwi sa bed!

What are you most proud of?
The early sense of independence I’ve had - not living separate from my parents! But at an early age they’ve already allowed me decide things on my own... which helped me up to this day because at least I don\'t depend on other people to decide for me.

What do you value most?
The life that was lent to me. This life is not mine. God gave this to me or rather lent it to me. I am grateful that He chose to give life to my soul because He wants me to accomplish and fulfill my purpose, the purpose why He lent me this life. I treasure this the most because my life is my license, my access why I am/was able to do every single thing I do and did and will do. Without it, I would simply be incapable of everything.

What do you want to achieve?
Peace of mind at all times, in any circumstances.Happiness in everything around me. Gratefulness for everything I have or have had. Success.

What is your advice to aspiring artists? Treasure the chance given to you. A lot would want to have your slot, but very few get lucky. Patience, determination, faith and heart are the
essentials in anything you do. So make sure you’ll have all this in any endeavour.
