The Interview

TIA:   What would you do if Phil Younghusband knocks at your room’s door?
Maricar Joy:  Hmm..I’ll simply say hello and entertain him. Hehe. That’s all.

TIA:  What’s the worst pick-up line you’ve ever heard from a guy? When and where was that?
Maricar Joy:  Here it goes. This guy told me “TAE KA BA? ANG BAHO MO KASI.. It happened during our discrete math class, an activity hour and the class was hazily answering the problem. That thing really pissed me off.

She may not be everyone's favorite, but Maricar does not give up on anything.

TIA:  Has anyone broken your heart before? What happened?
Maricar Joy:  Yap, I’ve experienced that. I just stood my ground, left him and showed him what he lost. I can’t be sitting like a crying baby for that. I have to be strong.

TIA:  What do you think of him now? What will you tell him if given the chance?
Maricar Joy:  Actually, we are together again. We made up and kissed the fights and misunderstandings we had before. He changed for the better and begged me for another chance. Since I do still love him, I gave him the chance to redeem himself on me. Hopefully, our relationship go sweeter the second time around this time.  

TIA:  What can you do to make a guy hate you?
Maricar Joy:  Honestly, I can’t think of anything to make a guy hate. I’m just the natural me. As far as I know, I haven’t done anything that turns them off from me. Well, I don’t know. If there will be a time some guy hates me, I’ll make sure it’s not going to be my fault. If they do, again, they can hate the natural me. 

TIA:  What’s the first thing you’ll do after the pageant?
Maricar Joy:  I’ll sincerely thank God for giving me the self confidence and courage I needed. And of course, my family. I’ll hug them the best way I can for their unwavering support.

"Failure is just part of growing up", says Maricar.

TIA:  Do you cook? If you do, what do you usually cook? Will your future husband be proud of your kitchen prowess?
Maricar Joy:   You got it right, I do cook. Most of the time, I fry chicken, pork, fish and others. For main course, I can cook adobong manok and ginisang kalabasa. I may have the thing to be in the kitchen, unfortunately, not all the time. Well, I think my future husband will be proud for me because at least, I know how to cook! Haha.

TIA:  What part of your house gives you the serenity you’re looking for?
Maricar Joy:  My bedroom. That’s the only place where I can say “I’m already the queen of my empire!”. LOL!

TIA:  Where do you think you’ll have a better life/work, in the Philippines or abroad? Why?
Maricar Joy:  I’d better prefer the Philippines. Ever since, I’d never dream of going abroad just to be rich. Just like what they said there’s no better place than home…I feel safer here. 

TIA:  How would you feel assuming you failed to win Mutya ng Ibaan 2012?
Maricar Joy:  It’s okay. Failure is just part of growing up. I’ll still thank God even if I fail to win. The point is, I did my best and showed the competitive side of me in this contest. And take note, I didn’t give up to the very end. It’s better losing despite giving everything than win something without working hard for it. 

Maricar stands firm against Reproductive Health Bill.

TIA:  What’s the most sarcastic/offensive comment you’ve heard about you since you joined Mutya ng Ibaan 2012?
Maricar Joy:  For one, they said I’m not competitive and fall short of height requirement. I just turned deaf on those discouraging words. Thanks to my ever supportive relatives. They fought for me and didn’t fail to support my financial needs. That makes me love them more.

TIA:  How are you going to promote your barangay and the Municipality of Ibaan?
Maricar Joy:  The municipality of ibaan? Well as you can see, this is the home of beautiful people, the home of God-fearing people and famous kulambo and the home where you will see the unity of municipality and the church. Barangay Malainin? This is simply the home of well-known people, talented persons, and the beautiful nature (eg.Himamawo Spring). 

TIA:  What is your stand in Reproductive Health Bill?
Maricar Joy:  As a Roman Catholic, I’m not in favor of that. The usage of pills and artificial contraceptives also mean killing innocent lives. If the community really cares for our population, then start cooperating and learn the basics of the family planning.

TIA:  Is there anything that you want to change in Ibaan?
Maricar Joy:  Nothing actually. Because our very good Mayor Danny Toreja is already doing a good job in creating changes for the good of our town.  

TIA:  Among the candidates, who do you think is the most competitive? Why?
Maricar Joy:  I think it’s Ate Raychelle Timan of Brgy. Palindan. Even if she’s not that tall at tall, she has the guts to face the crowd and able to keep her coolness.
