00:00The bitter one was Talaban, now it's Biritera.
00:03We know that it's you, but tell us why it's you.
00:07We know that you're now Biritera, but what's the story of the bitter one?
00:12So before I joined my first ever singing competition on national TV,
00:18that's when I experienced my first heartbreak.
00:22Okay.
00:23Because you lost.
00:24Yes.
00:25At that time, I was hoping that I could make it to the finals.
00:33As a kid, I was very hopeful, very optimistic.
00:38Yes.
00:39Your outlook on life.
00:40Yes, like that.
00:41So I was disappointed in myself and I questioned my ability in singing
00:48and my belief in myself that I could do it,
00:53or what I was lacking in my journey in that contest.
00:58And at the same time,
01:01the feeling that your family and everyone who believed in you,
01:07you felt disappointed.
01:09I felt like I disappointed them.
01:11So I really felt bad for myself.
01:14And in my experience,
01:17when I saw that they were on TV,
01:20in their promos,
01:21I told myself that I should be there too,
01:24that I should be with them.
01:26Maybe I was able to move on for a long time.
01:30How did you get out of that kind of thinking?
01:33Maybe the turning point of that experience was
01:36that my family encouraged me to join again,
01:41to try again.
01:42Because they always tell me,
01:43you're still young,
01:44you still have a lot of opportunities ahead of you.
01:46And I told myself,
01:47why not try again?
01:50How many years later did you try again?
01:54About 2 to 3 years,
01:56their gap.
01:57But actually,
01:58after I joined,
02:00it was another heartbreak.
02:02You lost again.
02:03Yes.
02:04And I joined that competition twice.
02:07Was it the same competition?
02:08It was different.
02:09Okay.
02:10But on national TV,
02:11I asked myself,
02:12how long will this last?
02:13And I told myself,
02:15I don't want to join anymore.
02:16And I had another opportunity,
02:19the following year.
02:20It was another competition.
02:21It was another competition.
02:23And I told myself,
02:25this is the last time.
02:26I don't plan to join anymore.
02:28But I said,
02:29this is the last time.
02:30Whatever happens,
02:32this is the will of the Lord for me.
02:34Yes, yes.
02:35And if this is the path for me,
02:38the Lord will always bring me back here.
02:40Yes.
02:41So, that's it.
02:42And it turned out that
02:43that was the opportunity
02:45to open doors for myself.
02:49You became a grand champion in that contest.
02:50Yes.
02:51You became more famous
02:52and now you're here in GMA7.
02:54Yes.
02:55Such a blessing.
02:56And that's amazing.
02:57And I think the best thing
02:59from everything you shared today
03:01is that in every story,
03:02in every cry of life,
03:04there's always a replacement.
03:05There's laughter.
03:06Not only laughter,
03:07but it's the daily lessons
03:08that you will build in your life
03:10and you will bring as you move forward.
03:12Right?
03:13Thank you so much, Mars!
03:15It was a fun laugh moment.
