CEBU, Philippines - Mahibaw-an na karong adlawa ang mapili nga Miss Intercontinental 2014 nga ipahigayon didto sa Germany ug ang Sugbuanon nga si Kris Tiffany Janson maoy pambato sa Pilipinas sa nahisgutang indigay.
Pagsalig sa Ginoo ug sa iyang kaugalingon ang mga lig-ong taming ni Kris sa panghinaot niya nga malangkat ang korona.
Kahinumduman nga sa wala pa motikang si Kris sa iyang mga praktis ug uban pa nga mga kalihukan , nipauli siya dinhi sa Cebu, ug nakighimamat sa iyang mga tigpaluyo.
Ang iyang supporters maoy pipila sa naghatag kaniya og igong kusog sa pagsalmot niya sa nahisgutang international pageant.
“They were so sweet. I was so amazed. It was my way of giving back to them, since I have a couple of fan pages, and I had no idea who started and manages these. I thought that since I will be here in Cebu for a longer period, why not have dinner with them and get to know them. I messaged them and invited them for dinner. I found out there were kids from Minglanilla, Consolacion and Mactan who came here in Cebu City just to meet up with me. And these kids are actually the administrators of my fan pages. I also found out that one of them filed a leave from work to be able to attend the dinner. Their support is so overwhelming and heartwarming, that I’m inspired to work even harder for them,” tsika pa ni Kris sa interview ni The Freeman entertainment editor Vanessa Balbuena.
Dili usab malimtan ni Kris ang grabeng suporta nga iyang nadawat gikan sa iyang pamilya ug usa kini sa rason sa kalampusan niya sa Binibining Pilipinas diin nakoronahan siya isip Bb. Pilipinas Intercontinental 2014.
“My mom keeps on flying to and from Manila for me. My elder brother is here, so she has to come home. When I need help, she would quickly go to Manila. She’s helping me pack for the international pageant. Also, my relatives who come all the way from different places...I have an uncle who lives in Texas who came here in the Philippines just to watch me in the Binibini coronation night. Being a Binibini is quite demanding, and I cannot just provide everything that is needed on my own. So I have relatives in the States who send me packages with makeup, and whatever it is that I need,” dugang pa ni Kris.
Pipila sa miuban niya karon didto sa Germany mao ang iyang inahan, mga igsuon ug pipila sa iyang mga ig-agaw.
Gihulagway ni Kris nga “blessing” ang naabtan niya karon ug mao kini ang resulta sa todo niya nga paningkamot.
“I used to believe in lucky charms. But then, I was able to talk to someone during a shoot. He congratulated me for winning in Binibini, and I answered, ‘Yah I got lucky.’ And he said, ‘No dear, you’re not lucky, you’re very blessed.’ That’s when I realized, that indeed, it’s a blessing,” matud pa niya.
Nagkalain-laing mga tawo ang nahimamat ni Kris busa nagsagol pud ang mga tambag nga iyang nadawat busa iyaha na kining estilo sa pagbalanse niini.
“ At the end of the day, it’s how you understand the advice. It’s up to you how to translate everything. You don’t have to confuse yourself on what correct advice to follow, because you know yourself better,” nagkanayon si Kris.
Usa sa dili malimtan ni Kris mao ang espesyal nga tips nga gihatag sa iyang inahan kung diin gitambagan siya nga mag-enjoy lang sa indigay ug kinahanglan dili siya dali nga saputon.
Samtang gipaneguro gyud ni Kris ang pagkaon og masustansya nga pagkaon aron magpabiling himsog ang iyang lawas ug dili usab maguba ang iyang body figure.
“I’m not on a diet, I just eat healthy food. My typical breakfast would be whole wheat bread with eggs and any meat. What I eat in Manila is kind of unhealthy, like Spam. Binibini gave a meal plan, but I don’t really follow it. For lunch, it’s usually salad with meat. Dinner, it depends if I’m hungry or not. If I am, I’ll have another salad. I do cheat with a cupcake, or a cookie. I don’t drink juice and softdrinks. They always say - and I think it’s true - it’s 70% diet, and 30% workout. Sometimes, I do eat rice. Other times, I replace rice with quinoa, brown rice or whole wheat bread,” suma pa sa beauty queen.
Usa sa giidolo pag-ayo ni Kris mao si Precious Lara Quigaman gumikan kay namintinar gyud niini ang iyang personalidad busa usa kini sa nahimo niya nga inspirasyon.
“Because I find her really beautiful up until now, it would be Precious Lara Quigaman. She is very successful, and she has been able to maintain her beauty queen look,” nagkanayon si Kris.
Gihulagway si Kris sa iyang mga higala nga lingaw nga ikauban ug sungogan pud usahay.
“I’m very loud. Sugsugan ko. But I’m not a bully. When it comes to people I just met, or are not that close to yet, I’m shy. Eventually, when I get comfortable, that’s when I warm up and start to be loud,” hirit pa niya.
Kung laayon si Kris, ang pagkatulog ug pagtan-aw og salida o ba kaha ang pakig-tsika sa iyang inahan maoy iyang buhaton.
Panawagan ni Kris sa katawhan nga tabangan siya og ampo alang sa iyang kalampusan sa Miss Intercontinental 2014.
“Pray for me, that everything will be successful. Prayers are really powerful. If there is an online voting, I’m pretty sure that Filipinos are very powerful when it comes to that. I just also want to say thanks for all the time and effort that my supporters have invested for me. The energy I get from all the support really helps a lot,” panapos pa ni Kris. (BANAT NEWS)
