Alyssa Muhlach Alvarez, Reina Hispanoamericana Filipinas 2018. ❤️ (Part 1 of 3) • Maraming, maraming salamat po sa lahat ng inyong suporta! ❤️ Before I joined a beauty pageant, thoughts like “I’m not thin enough”, “I’m not pretty enough” and “I’m not good enough” were the excuses that filled my head. But I was reminded that every accomplishment starts with a decision to try. ? To those who may not know, it was last February 2018 when I started to first observe in the Kagandahang Flores camp. I always watched beauty pageants but I never knew about the training that the contestants needed to go through. I was able to train alongside contestants from 4 different beauty pageants and I learned that women who come from different backgrounds can gather in order to pursue their dreams and achieve their hopes and goals for society. ❤️ One day, I finally made up my mind and told myself that I was going to join Miss World Philippines 2018. ? In preparation for that, I regularly trained with Tito Rodgil, Mommy G and Kuya Enan in my camp (Kagandahang Flores), exercised with Sir @angelosmendez in @goldsgymphilippines , maintained a strict diet and many more. When I was chosen as one of the official candidates for MWP 2018, I was so overjoyed and thankful. ❤️ On that day, I met my most hardworking admins, Ate Cypress, Ate Beth and Art. I remember how I was in tears on my way home because I was so humbled and grateful. That day, the Lord reminded me that these people who have never met me yet believe in me, so why couldn’t I believe in myself as well? Words cannot fully express how grateful I am to each one of you who has supported me all the way and helped me gain confidence in myself. To my glam team, @jrcons, @brentopinion , @sherwinamodia and @styledbypatrickhenry , thank you so much for always making me look beautiful. I am so, so grateful to my amazing designer as well (Benj Leguiab IV, @benjleguiab_iv ). We both collaborated on this beautiful gown that I wore last night. I told him that I wanted my gown to show my love for the Philippines and he was able to come up with this beautiful gown that did just that. ❤️ [Photo: @niceprintphoto]
