From Provident Village, Richard brought Cristine to her sister Ara Mina’s house in Quezon City. Shortly after, Cristine’s mom and her two pamangkin arrived on jetskis, saved by friends of Ara’s non-showbiz boyfriend. Cristine and family saved nothing, neither their car nor their appliances nor their personal belongings, nothing!
“The experience was an eye-opener,” said Cristine who showed up at yesterday’s lunch wearing a white long-sleeved shirt (among the few retrieved from her closet) and denim pants given to her by Liz Uy. “I realized that material things are nothing; they have no value. You can lose them and replace them. Life is more precious. Once lost, wala na, hindi na maibabalik. I used to be secretive and sensitive. After that nightmare on Sept. 26, my outlook in life has changed. I look at life differently now. Life is short, every moment is precious. Enjoy it to the fullest with your loved ones because you can never tell kung kelan ka mawawala.”
