NUMBER OF BROTHERS/SISTERS YOU HAVE: I have 1 older sister Ghia and 1 fake little brother named Nick. LOL.
CELEBRITY LOOK ALIKE: I have been referred to as Lucy Liu quite a number of times over the years but not because they think I look like her but because she's asian and does martial arts! lol. It was ironic because I did a martial arts stunt show for Sony Pictures a few years back and they casted me as Lucy Liu's look-a-like for a Charlie's Angels crew. If I can find the video of it I'll see if I can put it up on my youtube. It was really cool. We got to do wire work so we can fly and do flips in the air like in the movies.YOUR CHILDHOOD HERO: Scarlet O'Hara from GI JOE. Jo Polnichek from The Facts of Life. I thought she was cool! Optimus Prime. I LOVED TRANSFORMERS. I cried when Prime died.NAME OF YOUR FAVORITE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TEACHER. WHAT MADE HIM/HER SPECIAL?: Mrs. Matthews (3rd Grade), She was just really nice and reminded me of my mom I guess, very sweet.DID YOU HAVE A NICKNAME GROWING UP? IF SO, WHAT WAS IT?: I can't believe I will reveal this. Let me first explain a few things that will help you understand how I got my nickname:1. I am FILIPINO!!!2. Just about ALL FILIPINOS have some messed up two syllable nickname and most of the time the 2nd syllable is the same as the first! (Example: Ling Ling, Bong Bong, Bing Bing, Ra Ra, etc...)3. My sister gave me the nickname.4. Oh yeah, did I mention that I'm Filipino???My nickname is Bamm Bamm pronounced /bahm bahm/ and my whole family pretty much still calls me THAT! There are also a few variations of it. Please do not call the station asking to speak to Bamm Bamm or I will hang up on you! lol...LIKES: BEING A MOM...Actually I LOVE BEING MOM!!! I also like music, boxing, tae kwon do, jiu jitsu, judo, karate, kickboxing, scrapbooking, laughing, singing (yes, I have a karaoke machine!!), making people laugh, facebooking, twittering, myspacing. I really need to go to rehab for the last 3 things I listed...Oh and my sister suggested that I also put "eating" because I really do love to eat. (I don't like sharing my food but I will gladly eat some or all of yours. lol.)DISLIKES: That there is no cure for Alzheimer's Disease!!!

It has done so much for me.
WORST JOB EVER: This job wasn't too bad until I had to clean THROW UP! OMG! It was 1991 and I worked at Century 8 Theaters in San Bruno.
