Thank you MBC and to the great people of APAN Star Awards for giving me this recognition. I used to dream about getting an award when I was a little girl. Who would've thought that I would receive one from an international prestigious award- giving body. It's such an honor to represent the Philippines. I still can't believe it. Haaay, God. YOU.ARE.AMAZING. ❤️❤️❤️ #APANStarAwards
