Working Happy: To Each Her Own
Posted on October 15, 2009 12:00AM
My college (and early work life) ex who remains a good friend once used to find it funny and amusing that I wanted to be a journalist...but only for happy news. We used to joke that, in the event I became a broadcaster, my segment would start like this:
"And now, for the good news..."
Little did I know then that I would eventually work as a beauty editor—a job which was as close as I could get to being a bearer of sparkly-happy updates. What better way can one be positively entertained and willingly distracted than by perusing beautiful baubles of perfume bottles or marvelous palettes of face paint? -
On Forming REAL Friendships In Showbiz
Posted on October 3, 2009 08:00AM
With my co-stars Patrick Garcia, Glaiza de Castro, Rich Asuncion, and JC Tiuseco
This week, our afternoon drama Kung Aagawin Mo ang Lahat sa Akin (which I shall now call KAMALSA)aired its finale and I can’t believe how much I’m already missing everything about it. I never thought I would enjoy taping a heavy drama so much! This is the first show I ever did wherein I had to cry in almost every scene.
Ever since I began acting, I always had a problem with shedding tears, and it’s a known fact that any actor worth his salt can cry on cue. Despite being in the business for so many years now, I was only able to do this when I became part of KAMALSA, with the help of our brilliant acting coach Ms. Anne Villegas and, of course, the bitter and sad memory of losing papa just months before I had to do the show.
Later on, I realized that it wasn’t just those factors that helped me emote. That's because when I became very good friends with everyone on the set, I was able to act more naturally and let out real emotions. I learned how building solid relationships with your co-workers could make your job a lot easier and so much more fun. -

“Hey Veronica,” his voice sounded forlorn.
“Hey Matt,” I tried not to sound too excited to hear his voice. “So what’s your problem?”

No Date On A Friday Night
Posted on September 13, 2009 12:00AM
“Okay, that’s it, I’m out of here,” I told Dee and Claire as I packed the last of the brochures we hauled from the mall to the building lobby and back to our office. “I’m pooped!”
“No date, V?” Claire asked, her hesitation mixing with curiosity.
“No,” I mouthed casually as I snapped my bag shut and waved goodbye.

“Ayoko nang magbenta ng breast enhancing cream na 'yan ha,” I started. “Why do they have to look from the bottle, to my face, then to my breasts?!”
