Sharing with you the video of the inaugural episode of #PageantryNorms via The Philippine Pageantry. Inspite of the occasional technical difficulties and all, we were still able to make it through.
It’s not easy mounting an online discussion program but fulfilling once everything was set into motion.
Thank you to my guests Hannah Arnold, Bella Ysmael and Shane Tormes.
“Let’s have coffee this coming Sunday afternoon at 4pm. I have invited Bella, Hannah and Shane to keep us company.”
This is it for the inaugural episode of #PageantryNorms on June 28 starting at 4pm on TPP TV via The Philippine Pageantry.
Our first three guests will be:
1) #PhenomenalWoman Bella Ysmael of Parañaque City for Miss Universe Philippines 2020
2) #Binibini21 Hannah Arnold of Masbate for Bb. Pilipinas 2020
3) #EcoAngel Shane Quintana Tormes of Atimonan, Quezon for Miss Philippines Earth 2020
It will be a free-wheeling discussion on “Coping With the Changes: The 2020 National Pageant Season”
I hope you can all tune in, watch and join the interactive forum. Your support will mean so much to me. ❤️
Having seen/reviewed all the Miss Universe Philippines 2020 candidates and their Passions that #NeverFade, I took the liberty of choosing my favorites among them. I short-listed these ones for different reasons – either close to my heart (subjective) or close to the heart of many (objective) as proven through the actual related activities that they have already started doing before and during the quarantine period:
Alaiza Malinao – Food Security and Sustainable Farming: she who has done a lot of help for the welfare of our farmers and the actual networking of fresh produce from farm to table.
Riana Pangindian – Holistic Well-Being of Teachers: she who has focused on the welfare of the individuals who lead inside the classroom instead of just the students who have always been cared for my many.
Sigrid Grace Flores – Philanthropic Revolution: she who has done Service for Others way before anyone else in the roster of candidates. Philanthropy is usually easier said than done, but she reversed the thought and made charitable acts easier done all the time.
Ericka Evangelista – Teen Empowerment: she who has actually helped mobilized the youth – especially during the quarantine period – with the #BaryaNiJuan project that benefitted more frontliners than initially imagined.
Pauline Amelinckx – Marine Conservation Through Arts: she who has carefully intertwined her love for the sea and love for the children in an advocacy that brings equal amounts of hope and joy to many.
Michele Gumabao – Empower the Youth Through Sports: she who personifies her cause to the max. As a high-achieving athlete, television personality and social media influencer, she used her unique platforms to the best that she can.
Patricia Mae Santos – Women Empowerment: she who transformed the meaning of her advocacy to greater heights by partnering with the Armed Forces of the Philippines for a wider hands-on reach to remote areas while promoting her personal love for reading as a side activity by giving out books for people to read and appreciate.
Skelly Ivy Florida – Inclusive Education: she who has been appointed by her Island Province to be a beacon of hope in a project that aims to include all children – regardless of skin color and mental restrictions – in the mainstream of primary education.
Ysabella Ysmael – Community and Mental Health: she who cares for Mental Health not just as individuals but as members of a bigger community where the psychological well-being of a unified majority can take strength in numbers.
Carissa Rozil Quiza – Education for Indigenous People: And finally, she whose actual studies as Teacher allowed her to focus on the plight of indigenous Mamanwa children who – inspite of significantly lacking in life’s material pleasures – continue to give the biggest smiles from their hearts.

So who is just as happy as Miss Universe 2015 Pia Wurtzbach using their #HuaweiP40PH smartphones? These Miss Universe Philippines 2020 candidates certainly are!
With its 50MP Ultra Vision, 12MP Telephoto, 3D Depth Sensing and 40MP Ultra Wide Cine Cameras, they can take pictures almost like pros. The Quad-Curve Overflow Display makes the unit feel like a flowing wonder in their hands.
What’s more, you can get a free Band 4 with each purchase.

When advocacies have started to become integral parts of any pageant aspirant’s game plan, mental health awareness is one platform that many joiners took as their default cause to push for – much like pre-med students choosing to major in Psychology thinking that it would be the “easiest” field to specialize in before heading to Medicine Proper. But as some of them may have realized – this is one area that is easier said than implemented.
Miss Universe Philippines 2020 candidate Ysabella “Bella” Roxas Ysmael is not just relying on her degree in Psychology to mount a purposeful entry into national pageantry. She has been an advocate for mental health ever since her years at the De La Salle University. She practices what she preaches and is not about to go talking about the subject matter based solely on one reading or two. She has dug into the science behind it and can connect the theories and methodologies to daily practice.
As a fellow blogger, Bella has recently posted an entry that speaks on mental health amidst the COVID19 crisis. Below is an excerpt from the same:
”… …Take care of your mental well-being.
Keeping yourself physically healthy is one thing, but staying mentally-well is another. The mind is capable of thinking of so many things that sometimes it goes on hyperdrive. It becomes too much to handle sometimes. We might even be feeling stressed because of the adjustments we have to face such as working from home, and spending your entire day indoors. It’s important to keep a routine or at least a list of goals to help with time management and to keep yourself on track, it’ll help you feel in control of yourself.
Other things you can practice is meditation and mindful breathing. This is something I can seriously say has helped me a lot with my struggles. There are a lot of guided meditations available online and on YouTube to specifically target whatever it is you might need help with — be it anxiety, insomnia, stress, depression — it’s all there. That’s the beauty of the internet. We have unlimited access to so much resources to help ourselves, so let’s make use of it.

Bella was also part of the Mindful Soul Series of Forth Co. in an online panel discussion that touched on “Mindfulness for Mental Health” where she shared her views and learnings on how to preserve mental well-being in the middle of ECQ and the pandemic crisis. She gave tips on how to adapt a calm attitude and bravely go through the paces without giving in to stress and anxiety.
She also helped spread awareness of the group #ForOurFrontlinersPH and its efforts in providing PPEs to medical frontliners who are exposed to the elements of the COVID19 virus. Their target recipients are different hospitals assessing and treating cases first-hand.
Truthfully, being a pageant candidate these days is no longer as simple as getting a glam team to help one in all the physical aspects of the endeavor. The inner substance should also be shown. With sincerity and a good heart.
