Nomtakibau!

All right, everyone. I’ve been hella lagging on answering these, because it’s been a busy weekend, but I found some free time in the wee hours of the night (and I’m hella awake after taking a 5-hour energy at midnight, wtf), so I’m going all the way this time! Please excuse this post for being hella long…

Dear Leejay, are you going to Gabe’s One Night Only show in San Francisco? :]

Yes, yes I am! I hope to see you there! And if you haven’t bought your tickets already, you can get them here: http://www.ubetunes.com/gabebondocconcert … please support this talented man!

whats your favorite color?

At the moment… purple, I think.

If you had a super power, what would it be? other then to time travel or teleport that is…;]

Probably… freezing time. I guess I just really want to be Hiro Nakamura.

Marunong ka bang mag Tagalog?

Kunti lang. =( I used to be fluent growing up as a child… but after years of public school, the ability to speak gradually faded, but I can still understand it well.

If you needed a heart transplant, (but there were no human hearts available)and they gave you the choice of choosing any animal’s heart. Which animal would you choose from? lol

The heart of a blue whale! If they’re the largest animal in the world, I would imagine they have the biggest heart. <3 (My chest might look freakishly large though.)

How would you peel your banana, stem or crown first?

I grew up peeling bananas from the stem, but my sister, Leah taught me how to peel it from the crown after she learned how from a YouTube video. I have yet to try it out though!

Do you have a son? Someone at your performances yells “DAD!” or “Dard!” and I just wonder.

Indeed! My son’s name is Stephen, and he is 20 years old. I’m the proudest parent ever and I love him to death. <3

would you rather eat your poo, or breath only fart for a week?

Hmmm. As much as I joke about poo, eating it is a really filthy thing to do. I would rather breathe fart for a week, if it’s my own. In all honesty… I don’t even really mind the smell of my own brand, haha.

Did you really work at Disneyland or were you just an intern? If you did work there, what was your job? If you were an intern, how did you get the internship? haha Sorry, I’m just really interested in working there. :D

I worked at Disney Consumer Products as a graphic design intern from January to July of this year. AMAZING experience. Aside from growing as a designer by working for one of the best and most creative companies, it gave me the opportunity to experience LA for 6 months, it also made my resumé look so much cooler… and holy crap, best perks ever. I’m talking movie release parties, access to Disney Studios / ABC Studios / Disney Animation, free admission and discounts at Disneyland… sigh. I miss working there. I landed the internship thru a friend’s boyfriend’s brother, haha. She basically showed him my online portfolio, and he passed it along, and I got an email from Disney! Gotta love the hookups!

describe your life in a freestyle, GO!:

Ayo… ayo… I love my life! Peace.

what are 3 things you can’t live without?

Love, laughter, and food. =)

what is your definition of “Sucess”

Enjoying what you do for the rest of your life, and having people you love to share it with.

Okay, You, Gabe, & Passion. Who’d win in a fight?!

Honestly… Gabe and I grew up as wimpy losers. Jeremy, on the other hand, was a little thug growing up. Plus he’s hella tall and lives in the city. I’m sure he could beat our asses if he really wanted to. Probably run us over with his fixed gear bike too. <3

You and your sisters are very talented…do you guys get it from your mom, dad, both?

Actually, neither of our parents are performers or are really into art or music. I would credit them by just being super supportive in our creative endeavors, and allowing us the freedom to pursue whatever makes us happy. <3

have you ever burped or had to sneeze while in the middle of a live performance? lol

This is the very reason I no longer eat before I go on stage. I used to have to hella burp in the middle of a set, and it would KILL ME. One time, I just had to stop… burp… and keep going. Hahaha.

There’s a lot of assholes out there who are bound to say some really hurtful and insulting things about your performances and videos. As a performer, I find this annoying. How do you deal with it?

Man. I used to haaate this when I first starting performing. Putting your heart and soul and full effort into your craft can make you really sensitive to criticism. Through the years, I’ve learned that there will always be haters, and you just have to learn to deal with them. Then there is constructive criticism. You just kinda have to learn to not get butt-hurt, and take it in stride. Take it in as a suggestion, and not as a blatant criticism. No one is perfect or 100% accomplished in their career or craft. We should never become too comfortable and feel like we no longer have to improve. Everyone always has the potential to be better. I guess this applies to all aspects of life, and not only the stage.

if you could go to Disneyland with ANYBODY in the world, and you could only choose one person, who would it be and why?

Duhhh… Walt Disney. He’d give the coolest, most in-depth tour ever. (And I know he’d have the authority to hook it up with some Dole Whip… YOUUUKNOWHATIMSAYINNN?!)

Do you know the muffin man? :)

…the Muffin Man?!

I have recently become a lover of sushi…whats your favourite kind of sushi?

The michi roll at Mikuni’s is honestly my favorite roll in the world. Try it. Otherwise, almost any roll with cream cheese. Gahhh. Love it.

are there foods that you wont eat.. (dislikes)??

Although I’ve learned to tolerate it, I really don’t like the flavor of cilantro. Blech.

is the reason why you wanna time travel is because you wanna go back in time and eat a certain delicious food again !!?!? and just TRAVEL TIME EATING!?

Initially, no. But now that you’ve mentioned it…

What is one favorite movie that makes your eyes sweat aka crying?

Dude. I was able to fight off the tears when I first saw The Lion King. But… the movie that really made me cry… was The Nutty Professor with Eddie Murphy. When he was Professor Klump, and Dave Chappelle clowned on him hella hard for being overweight at the club IN FRONT of Karla Purdy… AND had to walk home in the rain… *tear*. That definitely got to me.

Have you every tried stalking someone on twitter or facebook?

Let’s be honest. Anyone that has an account on either or both sites has a stalker side in them. C’mon now.

have you ever been attracted or thought a fan was cute?

Sure. Doesn’t mean I’ll act on it. I have boundaries!

How would you like to celebrate Christmas this year?

By the fireplace with my family and in pajamas! Interestingly, this is the first year in a long time that I’m going to be spending Christmas single. It’s not a big deal or anything, but honestly, I just want someone to build gingerbread houses with and buy gifts for. Christmas is THE cuddliest time of the year. I just wanna snuggle and watch Elf, haha.

When did you go for the bald look? Do you think maybe you can grow out some hair and style it? (at least for the winter, so you have some warmth!) Just a new look suggestion :)

Through the years, my hair has slowly gotten shorter and shorter. In elementary school, I used to rock my hair combed back hella slick. In middle school and high school, I had my hair spiked. During college, it slowly got to the buzzed/shaved look. My mom used to always cut my hair, but when she and my sister, Lori stayed in the Philippines for a year, I had to learn to cut my own hair (since paying for haircuts got expensive). It’s more of a convenience thing than anything else. But I’ve noticed a lot of people have been hinting they like me with longer hair. Hmmm. You know what… I think I’ll take you up on that suggestion and try it out for the winter. Why not? =)
