Start of something new
Sharing of interests, stories of where I've been and what I did. Insights, thoughts, learning that may be applicable and helpful to anybody in this world!
Last night was one of the most exciting nights of my life.
It was Bb. Pilipinas 2013 Coronation Night.
I shared with you before that my cousin was part of this competition, she is Ara Arida and as I was watching the live streaming (which was extremely slow) I was also getting real time updates from my brother and cousins who were watching it live from Smart Araneta Coliseum.
I was so excited to hear that she was "Best in Swimwear" BUT knowing that she was the "MISS UNIVERSE PHILIPPINES 2013" I was like "HUH?"
Is that true? are you kidding me?????
Then it sinked-in!!! It was like a DREAM but no IT WAS TRUE!!!!
Ara is now the MISS UNIVERSE PHILIPPINES 2013.
Ara! No one can be more proud that your family who have supported you all the way!!!! Keep it going girl and we will go and cheer our lungs out for your Ms Universe competition this coming December!!

It has always been my weirdest dream to be a beauty queen! I know I have the confidence; (hahaha! Nung nagsabog ng confidence si Lord, marami rami akong nasalo) However, when you talk about the physical requirements (height, weight, nose?) I don't want to waste my time to try out because I know I am better off at the backstage. Not that I am discarding myself but I know where I fair. :)
Given this, I do not pay much attention to any beauty pageants. I just learn from the news who won whatever title, may it be Ms. Universe, Ms. International and so on and so forth. But this year will be different! I will be watching Bb. Pilipinas 2013 because my cousin (okie second cousin :D) is one of the candidates.
I don't care whether she gets the title or not, the fact that she was chosen to be one of the candidate from the 150 beautiful girls who auditioned is already an honor. This is already a life changing event and a very proud moment!
If one of the candidates was my uncle's - second cousin's - son's - daughter, then I would still be proud. At least someone from my blood line has the edge to become a Beauty Queen. Since she is my second cousin then I am definitely more proud.
Ara (as what we usually call her) is a typical girl who is very smart and knows what she wants in life. Being part of the most prestigious Beauty Pageant in the Philippines is definitely a cherry on top of a cake, but I know that this is just the beginning of everything!
Whatever Ara is achieving right now, it is a result of hard work and dedication. It is not something that you will get over night, it takes time, effort, belief and commitment!

We are proud of you Ara! Whatever the outcome, you are already a WINNER!
