'I want to be a role model'
BY PATRICK PANGILINAN
If she wins the MassKara Queen 2007 crown, one of the things Patricia Marie Kinjho said she wants to embody and uphold is the honor that comes with the title.
"I want to be a role model by being decent," Kinjho said.
Kinjho, a judo black belt holder, said she wants to preserve the integrity usually expected from beauty queens which, she said, have been stained by the actions of some pageant winners who explored the "wild" side of being a celebrity. As a MassKara Queen enjoys the limelight, the 18-year-old Filipino-Japanese said she also has to ensure that her actions do not degrade her image and the prestige of the title she carries.
"A beauty queen must be conscious of other people's opinion in the things she does," Kinjho, a Commerce student at the University of St. La Salle, said. Kinjho said one important thing a title-holder must consider is her choice of persons she associates herself with, from the many people who usually want to "befriend" a newly-crowned beauty queen.
"When you're bearing the title, you should really be careful in choosing your friends. You must see to it you're not influenced by the negative things that they do," Kinjho added. This cause, Kinjho said, she will start by showing the audience that she is beyond beauty and body on the MassKara Queen 2007 coronation night at the University of St. La Salle Coliseum on October 17.*PP
