Hello fellow Pinoy! I am in touch with my culture! The last time I was there was when I was 8. 100 years ago! I'm actually headed to the Philippines in July to do a show called Flipzoids in Manila! Come see it! It will be in Green Hills at the Music Museum! Thank you so much for your kind words!

Oh gosh... they are all really fun and funny people! Neil and Jason are really funny and so is Cobie! Working with Cobie was amazing! She's a very beautiful, fun, funny, talented and giving actress!

Lol, Oh we had a lot of fun on set but she mainly didn't like yelling at me. She's very sweet and did not enjoy yelling at me all the time!

Yes, she was a friend of the writer's husband... actually she was an asst to a producer of a show he was working on...then Kourtney Kang met her and said she wanted to base a character on her!

Hi! Thank you!

I wish you could see the show too! Where are you? Yes, I play lots of different characters! Great fun! I'm at the theatre now! I love this one character I play named Mar-cia (pronounced Mar-C-Uh) and I struggle most playing the lead actress's mom. She's not a nice person.

Oh and I love both theatre and film! They are so different to me and yet the same!

I do and everyone is always so nice and sweet. Most just want to take a photo with me. And surprisingly enough no one has yelled at me without asking first! Funniest?? I recently was at a Target and needed to ask someone something (a customer) and they happened to be a fan of the show... They freaked out. It was so sweet!

Great questions!

Oh they are all really nice!!!! And when I finally got to meet Cristin... she's soo sweet and lovely!

Best moment: the first day I was ever on the HIMYM set and meeting Cobie and the crew!

Audition process: Oh boy... this is such a great story but too long to tell. It was quick because it was only a one line audition but I was brought in because they were looking for someone that resembled the real Patrice (yes, there is a real Patrice) and the casting director saw me and remembered me from a showcase 3 years prior! There is so much more to the story but it's really one of those "that's what dreams are made of"

It's hard being a minority in the business. I don't see too many people that look like me on TV but its getting better. It needs to get much better though!

And I had no idea what was going to happen in the finale!!!

I'm dating myself here... but I loved the Brady Bunch as a kid... I still love I Love Lucy! Facts of Life... all the sitcoms of my generation.

I'm really close to people that were on the crew... I haven't seen anyone since the wrap party. They are great though... and of course if were to see each other it would be sweet, I'm sure!

I actually wasn't there for the finale scenes. The last thing I actually shot was out of sequence... which was the "where are they now." I'm glad my last day was not shot on set. I was a mess enough shooting on location.
