1/3 "Nothing in life comes easy. Everything comes with a sacrifice." One of the hardest decisions that I had to make was to resign from being Bb. Pilipinas 2021 1st runner up. It was a dilemma between finishing my reign and joining again. People were saying "This is not your year, you will not win a crown". That ignited the fire in me to prove to them that i can! 😊 Yes, I knew this year was going to be tough, but with the people behind me, supporting me in every step of the way, I know the journey will be worthwhile and we will make it possible. To my family, relatives and friends, thank you for never doubting my capabilities. You are my strength. I love you. To my mentor, Kuya RL, may korona na for RL’s Angels dito sa Pilipinas! This has been a long time coming. Thank you for always listening to me and for always guiding me not only in pageantry but also in life. To my designers, Ken Batino and Jevin Salaysay, hindi niyo binigo ang sambayanan! I know that I wasn’t the only one who got pressured but kayo din. Pero nilaban niyo! It was an unprecedented feat, back to back Best in Long Gown tayo! Thank you! I love you! ❤️ To Lulu.minx, Sir Ritchie and Rob thank you for always allowing me to wear your creations! 🥺❤️ I appreciate it. To Justine, Anthea, Aries, Jay, Ron, Kuya Dom, Kuya Kenneth and Stephanie, thank you! Thank you for helping my in so many ways. I am grateful to have met angels like you! Thank you for making time for me even if you have advance booked rakets for that day. Mahal ko kayo! (Pati yung pag kain ng pizza ng magkakasunod na araw just to help me with the pizza hut voting.) To the people behind my OOTD shoots/paandar/everyday make up looks who guided me and also helped me in this journey Mommy Gen, Jl, Georgina, Mommy Karen, Brielle, Fhedz, Mommy Eugene, Erico, Kuya Pao, Kuya Tristan, Kuya Cyril, Advan, Tonton, Nikko, and to all the HMUA’s I worked with, thank you so much! I really appreciate the effort that you gave me, hindi lang ako yung puyat, kayo din! Maraming salamat. 🙏🏼😭
