Summer Hairstyles

While inside our car, I've noticed one stuff toy there with cool hair! It's like soaked in wax coz its very flexible and can change its style easily. Because of enjoyment in fixing his hair (or should I say wala lang mapagtripan nun..nyahaha..), I conducted some pictorials while traveling. So CUTE huh!!..

Here yie! Here yie! Lend me your attention. Here’s my second short story revised and hopefully not the last story I will post. Since this one and my previous post of story are only those stories that have been published. If “As If I Know” is comedy, this is a serious one. Hope you’ll like it.

Friends-in-love Phenomenon:

It’s quite normal for heterosexual teens to be friends. 95% of the time, I’m sure one falls for the other, she says. “It’s rare na mutual. Someone always gets hurt. Siguro kung pangit ka”.

“The laws of attraction may explain teen’s susceptibility to romance”. “The law of attraction , as it turns out, simply states. Like attracts like”, which means, ask and you shall receive.

q & a

Why did you enter showbusiness?
I suppose God wanted it for me. GMA-7 called me after seeing an advertisement I did and asked me to go to the auditions for Capt. Barbell. I didn’t want to, but my parents made me… good thing they did because I got the role and am enjoying myself.

What do you consider as the turning point in your career?
I think when I stepped in the audition room for the McDonald’s ads, God already had showbiz in mind because the way everything happened was as if the ad was reserved for me

If you weren’t in showbiz, what kind of career would you have?
Modeling, student

What is your biggest frustration/regret?
When I do something out of obligation and not trying my best

What do most people not know about you?
I’m just like everyone else! I have my own weird insecurities, my own special talents and my own kapalpakans! I can’t ride a bike, I have a birthmark on my left bum and lagi akong nabubulol!

What is your most unforgettable experience?
The phone call that turned my life around. Nung nalaman ko na ako 'yung napili para gumanap kay “Leah” sa CB.

What are you most proud of?
That I’m a real person. I’m just me, I don’t pretend to be anyone else. I make mistakes and I accept that no one is perfect and kasali na ako doon. I don’t pretend to be anything more or anything less than what I am

What do you value most?
My morals, my beliefs, my religion, my purity, my family, my friends, my God and myself

What do you want to achieve?
I just want to get to the point where I am content, where I don’t need random things or certain people to make me feel complete. Actually, I’ve achieved it.
