How unnerving was it, really, to have Big Brother watching? We mean, cameras everywhere, recording your every move…
In the first week, I was very conscious. Pero nung tumakbo na ang buwan, parang di mo na naiisip yung camera. Lalo ako! Makakalimutin kasi ako. Minsan pag nagbibihis ako—ay! May nakakakita doon, may camera pala…

But were you sure no ABS-CBN staff outside of Big Brothers’ henchmen became peeping toms?
I don’t know. Now that I think of it, feeling ko baka may nakakita siguro. But we knew were all the cameras were placed.

There is still no PBB scandal pirated DVD so we assume it’s safe.
Wala naman po. Safe naman po…

Are your habits in the PBB house the same as in your own turf?
I’d say they are. My sleeping habits where the same. Only that inside the PBB house I was more the muni-muni type pero pasaway din.

Hygiene must have really been a problem inside, considering you had to empty bladders and guts with the cameras rolling, plus the rituals that go along with personal care…
You have to have a certain level of control din. Kumbaga may kaunti kang tinatago na ‘yung hindi pa talaga ‘yung buong buo na ikaw. Syempre di mo lahat maipapakita na ganoon ka talaga.

During challenges, how were you able to answer calls of nature in bad timing?
Pasaway nga ako diyan e, kasi nag wiwiwi ako sa ano…
