 My background is Filipino, but I was born and raised in Toronto. I am an only child, and like you’d probably expect, I get bored pretty easily. My boredom has made me become very creative. I love art, writing, drawing, and learning new things. Growing up without any brothers or sisters, my boredom has lead me to teaching myself how to speak backwards! Yes, I can be pretty crazy sometimes, and there's a lot more that people don’t know about me. One of the things that that most people don’t know is that I love to write. One of my poems, “Just Maybe”, was published in a book called, “The Colours of Life”.Growing up, I can honestly say that I had the best childhood an only child could ever ask for! I grew up in an apartment with 6 of my best friends, who were pretty much like my brother and sisters. We spent everyday together, playing games, going to the park, swimming, directing our own plays, trading stickers from our sticker collections… the list is endless. They were like the brother and sisters I’ve never had, and I couldn’t be more grateful! One thing I would like everyone to know about me, is that I’m not who you’d probably expect me to be. When people look at me, their first impression of me, would be that I’m snobby. But when I’m not smiling, I naturally look that way. In reality, I’m a really friendly and outgoing person who is easy to get along with. I’m caring and love to laugh and joke around. I love to sing, dance, model and do gymnastics. I was in gymnastics for 13 years, until I injured my leg and was told to take a break if I wanted to continue further. During gymnastics training, I was also enrolled in acting classes. My agency ended up moving which left me no choice but to switch agencies (which just so happened to be a modeling agency as well). It was then that I decided to try modeling and fell in love with the camera. There were people who doubted me because of my height, but I kept on trying and didn’t let them get to me. It’s because of that perseverance that I’m where I am today. As you can see, I’m just a regular teenaged girl, striving to make it big in something that I love to do. I’d like to thank everyone for supporting me and believing in me, even during times when I failed to believe in myself! It means so much to me and I appreciate it more than you can imagine! |
