| Subject: 10 Questions Answered by Shamcey Supsup Sat Jul 23, 2011 9:59 pm | |
| 10 Questions Answered by Shamcey Supsup1.) As the representative of our country, and young as you are, what nightlife entertainment will you recommend to your roommate if she comes to visit? (From Margie Moran, 1973 Miss Universe)
Shamcey: I’m not into nightlife, I’m not into dancing, or partying and I feel claustrophobic in bars because I hate smoke which makes me dizzy. So I will probably bring her to the CCP to watch cultural shows. I love theater and I can get my roommate interested in it.
2.) What do you think makes the Filipino truly world-class? (From Ruffa Gutierrez, 1993 Miss World Second Princess)
Shamcey: One characteristic of Filipinos that I’m proud of is their resilience, their ability to bounce back in the face of tragedy. Filipinos are very positive. They never lose hope. You watch the newscast about a fire and the victims are still smiling, saying to the camera, “Hello po!” I was in Japan as an American Field Service (AFS) scholar for two months and foreigners I met there told me that they loved Filipinos, and that in their countries, everything seemed so gloomy and they were curious why Filipinos are a happy people, every day daw is a party. Well, I think it’s our fiesta mentality.
3.) If you win, what will you do for the country? (From Pilar Pilapil, 1967 Bb. Pilipinas-Universe)
Shamcey: I want to get involved in projects about education. You know, my mother grew up in Basilan; she was among the poorest of the poor. They were 11 in the family and she told me na pangarap niya noon ay makakain ng buong itlog because before they would divide one egg among the family. So she strived to get an education. She was a scholar and to earn extra money, she would volunteer to do homework of her classmates in exchange for a share of their baon. I saw my mom’s perseverance. Now that she’s successful, she wants to send my cousins and other relatives to school. Education can really change your life.
4.) Beauty queens have a lot to do other than being beautiful. How would you use your title to benefit others? (From Dang Cecilio, 1979 Bb. Pilipinas-Universe)
Shamcey’s answer: Cliché as it sounds, I want to be a role model, kasi people usually see beauty queens just gracing social gatherings. I have a lot of other dreams, other plans. My ultimate goal is to be able to contribute something…I want to teach, I want to be a professor. Being a beauty queen is just part of a bigger plan and you can use it to inspire other people — you know, that you can achieve your goal if you work hard.
5.) If a Miss Universe got pregnant during her reign, do you think she should continue? (To Miriam Quiambao in the 1999 Miss Universe pageant where she won first runner-up to Miss Botswana.)
Shamcey’s answer: She should not. Among the rules is for the winner not to have a child. Otherwise, since she would take care of her child, she might neglect her duties and obligations as Miss Universe.
6.) What’s the biggest mistake that you’ve committed in your life and what did you do to correct it? (The “major, major” question asked of Venus Raj in last year’s Miss Universe contest where she placed fourth runner-up.)
Shamcey’s answer: Being afraid of making a mistake. Before, I never tried modeling and joining a beauty contest because I was afraid of failing. I was sure that I did best in academics, kumbaga that was my niche, until I realized that if I didn‘t try anything new, I’d never gain anything new. So I went out of the box and joined the Bb. Pilipinas pageant. Now I know that you learn much more outside of the classroom by meeting all kinds of people.
7.) Question : What’s the greatest struggle that you’ve overcome and how did it help you grow? (From Krista Kleiner, 2010 Bb. Pilipinas-International)
Shamcey: I’m a perfectionist and I’m hard on myself. Gusto ko lagi tama. I’m scared of making a mistake. Even in school, I had to study hard because people expected too much from me. Parang if I failed, or if I made just one mistake, ang laki ng impact. If I made an achievement, they would say, “Ah, it’s you kasi!” But I realized that I don’t have to pressure myself all the time because I have nothing to prove anymore. I always try to be the best that I can in everything I do. I realized that what’s important is not really being there but in getting there. So now, I’m trying to enjoy every moment kasi alam kong minsan lang mangyari ‘to, but while enjoying it I don’t set aside my goals in life.
8.) Question : How do you intend to portray and represent the country while taking part in an international competition? (From Nini Ramos, 1968 Bb. Pilipinas-International)
Shamcey: I’ll just show how proud I am to be a Filipino; I won’t pretend to be somebody else. During my brief stay in Japan, I saw how much they love their country, their culture, their language. I feel the same way.
9.) What do you think about the RH Bill? (From Gloria Diaz, 1969 Miss Universe)
Shamcey’s answer: I am for it. Everyone should be given a choice. You cannot deny that one of the world’s environmental problems is over-population. The more people we have and the more resources we use, the more waste we create. So, family planning is one thing that we should address.
10.) What is the essence of being a woman? (To India’s Sushmita Sen who won Miss Universe in 1994 when the pageant was held here for the second time.)
Shamcey’s answer: These days, the essence of being a woman is not just being a mother; it’s playing multiple roles. I saw my mom. She’s a successful civil engineer but she has always time for the family. She’s a super-woman, very good in multi-tasking. After work, she has time to cook for me, wash my clothes.
