So I flew from Paris to Bangkok, had one meal in the plane, got food poisoning, did not sleep AT ALL & kept vomiting on the way back. It was so bad. Once I landed in BKK, I didn’t have much time but I was STRUGGLING to not pass out while walking in the airport! First time & I was ALONE! ? My vision was a blur, my body felt like it was melting & my head was spinning so bad, so I went straight to the nearest restroom & collapsed in the cubicle before continuing to throw up what was left of my guts. I inched my way to the lounge & the same thing happened until I heard my name being called, so with all my energy, I ran to the gate. I ended up missing my flight by 1 MINUTE & it made me cry in the airport out of frustration—and those who know me know that I don’t usually cry! I was able to change my flight at no additional cost, but it meant that I would arrive in MNL by 7pm instead of the original time which was 11am. Our call time was at 6pm. I still hadn’t fit my gown & I had no idea how I was gonna make it in time. I was able to rest & recover in the lounge before rushing like there’s no tomorrow once I landed in MNL. On top of that, I was told that one of my bags got left behind. All of this after Paris, where I had multiple events per day. ? The reason why I’m sharing this is bec I’m blessed to know wonderful people who gladly came through when I needed it most. @lovipoe ended up fitting my dress for me (tho I can’t believe we have the same waist line cause hello just look at her! But then again, food poisoning…) and @kylieverzosa & @mica initially offered up their room in Shang before Tita Cory heard what was going on & stepped in to save the day. It really saved me so much time & trouble! I could not thank you girls enough, you are all true friends! And thank you, Tita Cory! ❤️ Thanks @adrianneconcept, @billycrawford, @starmagic_portia, Tito Chavit, & everyone who assisted me in NAIA. It really took this many people lol ? Whatever it is, I’m just happy that I made it to the ball in one piece & enjoyed the rest of the night with good company. ? I cannot tell you enough how happy I was to be there! Hahaha #ABSCBNBall2018 #TatakStarMagic
