00:00 I didn't know that you joined Showbiz to help your siblings with their studies.
00:05 How many siblings do you have?
00:06 I have two. I'm the eldest and my youngest is a girl.
00:10 I just feel that my parents were having a hard time back then.
00:16 Because, like me, after I went to high school, my mom was planning to go abroad.
00:21 For a few years, we were really just one family.
00:26 For 16 years, we were living in the same room.
00:30 Then, she suddenly thought of going abroad.
00:32 For me, I didn't want to. I couldn't let my parents go.
00:39 So, I thought of trying to audition.
00:43 I'll try to join this. Maybe we'll get accepted.
00:47 You can't continue living abroad.
00:50 So, she went abroad.
00:51 It means that our life here in the Philippines is really hard.
00:55 So that my sibling can continue with her studies.
00:58 Because she's really smart.
01:00 I don't want her to think or feel that she's going to fail because she can't study.
01:07 But, Ms. Pia, when it was time for me to audition,
01:12 when I didn't have any results or no calls yet,
01:16 my mom continued to go abroad.
01:20 For two months, I was waiting.
01:22 For those two months, my mom was already abroad.
01:25 I was getting sad every night.
01:27 I was crying because I missed my mom.
01:30 Then, she told us that in December,
01:35 if she doesn't come home in the Philippines,
01:39 she'll sign a two-year contract.
01:42 So, that means that for two months, I was crying every night.
01:46 What about those two years?
01:47 I couldn't let my mom go.
01:51 What happened was,
01:53 I was able to audition in December 2012.
01:57 I still remember December 12, 2012.
02:01 Because that was an important day for me.
02:03 I was able to audition.
02:04 Then, when I found out that I was accepted,
02:08 I called my dad.
02:10 I said, "Daddy, what's that?"
02:12 He said, "I was accepted here in my first show."
02:18 I said, "Oh, congrats, congrats."
02:20 He said, "Daddy, can you borrow your friend's ticket
02:25 so that we can go home?"
02:27 I said, "Sure, sure."
02:29 Because I was already in December 2012.
02:30 In December 2012, my mom will sign a two-year contract.
02:34 Thank God, my dad borrowed it.
02:37 Then, we sent it to my mom.
02:41 Thank God, it was my first ever taping day in my life.
02:44 My mom was already with me.
02:46 Aww!
02:47 I was shocked. I didn't expect this story.
02:52 First ever taping day.
02:54 My mom was already with me.
02:56 I was so happy.
02:58 That's what happened.
03:00 That's why I was really pushed.
03:02 Like I said, I was really embarrassed.
03:07 But you have to do all those things
03:10 to make it more valuable.
03:13 You have to try everything you can
03:18 for the people you love in life.
03:20 That's what motivated me.
03:24 I just wanted to be with my mom.
03:27 I also wanted to see my brother studying.
03:30 So, we'll put aside our embarrassment.
