I just realized I am not attractive and that I dont speak as well as I thought. Hahaha. I was reviewing my interview in a cable TV program. I wasnt able to catch it when it aired. but I got a copy.
I was squirming as I watched myself. di pala talaga ako gwapo. ang mukha ko may mga contortions pag ako'y nagsasalita. nakakatawang tignan. Ang mga facial expressions ko ay may pagka-OA.
Maski yung pagsasalita ko, di rin pala maganda. I had plenty of 'ahh' and 'mmm' in between my sentences... or even within!
Reality check! Hahaha. It was a humbling experience!

Aww... baka kabado ka lang and was not in your element.
Ok lang yun, leave it to experience. Hindi naman lahat ng gwapo telegenic eh. Kulang ka lang siguro sa rehearsal.
try mo sumali sa mga pageant trainings, etching!
It's all relative. :)
You might think that way, but someone who saw you might be swimming oceans to find out more about you. :)
Sis, whenever I edit our podcasts, the person who has the most "uhms", "aaahs" and too much "kasi para bang" is ME. Kayo ni Tony ang pumapangalawa.
Speaking on TV requires a different discipline (especially if you want to be a politician). The key words are clarity, conciseness, and an unerring ear for the perfect soundbite. That takes years of practice. One TV interview is not bad, especially if you're the one being interviewed.
Relax ka lang, sis. Kung si Lord nga, puwede mong maging karibal eh.... ;-)
Beauty is in the eye of the beerholder. Where's the video and let me be the judge of that? :-)
Pffft. We are over critical of ourselves. We usually take note of wrinkles or mannerisms that no one but else does. Ok lang yun 'no.
Hi C.C.
This post is similar to your previous post about pictures of you taken by a professional photographer, and you realized you are "not handsome."
Well, first of all, you are definitely NOT ugly. Having said that....it is also fair to say, that you are not a brad pitt. =)
At a certain age, I have come to accept (and even celebrate) what I look like, and realize that I have more to offer than a pretty face (sour grapes.lol).
Seriously, you have many physical blessings as well. Highlight on those... For one, your skin looks great for someone above 30. You look young for your age (it's ok to be 40, as long as you look 30. Lol). You have nice teeth. You dress well. You have a toned body. Although the moustache gives you a certain gravitas much needed for your position, you may want to reconsider....hehehe....(so very Joe Cantada if i may say so [oh oh....I am revealing my age here]).
Don't get me started on your personality, intelligence, wit, humor, and wealth..... lol.

(coffee soon, in Galleria?)

wow. swimming oceans! that sounds so nice. maybe. i actually thought i was being objective, assessing myself. i look in the mirror and i find a relatively goodlooking guy. i really felt that watching myself on tv gave me a reality check.
hahaha. mcvie. thanks. you are so right. it really takes practice. siguro pag marami na akong interviews. CHOZ.
i love that, quent: beerholder! hehehe! that video happens to be stored somewhere, locked. hahaha
