abs-cbnNEWS.com | 02/20/2010 10:59 PM MANILA, Philippines – Broadcast journalist Pinky Webb agreed to be grilled on the ABS-CBN's “Failon Ngayon” aired Saturday where she talked briefly about her work, family, love and thoughts on marriage. She got a surprise gift from host Ted Failon--a 'Teddy doggie' stuffed toy. Webb is part of ABS-CBN’s morning show, Umagang Kay Ganda (UKG), radio dzMM, ABS-CBN News Channel (ANC) and public affairs program, XXX. With her busy schedule, Failon asked Webb how she manages her time and love life. "Basta maaga akong matulog, ok sa akin. Kahit pagod na pagod ako buong araw, basta 9 o'clock tulog na ako,” Webb said. Single As for her love life, she said, "Wala. Zero. Wala." Webb recently broke up with boyfriend, former television host and now Lakas-Kampi vice presidential bet Edu Manzano. Failon pressed on and asked her if she considered “going seriously into a relationship, as in marriage, and work”. "Gusto ko din magkapamilya pero hindi ko pipilitin yun kung hindi pa akin. Yun na lang. After 39 years, if I'm gonna get married, kung magpapakasal ako, gusto ko yung lalaking gusto ng Diyos para sa akin," she answered. Failon’s follow-up question was if she was has been offered marriage in the past. "Meron ba? Ano sa palagay mo? Meron naman," she said but did not elaborate. The hardworking journalist right away replied to Failon’s question if she was afraid of remaining single at her age. “Natatakot ka bang tumandang dalaga?” Failon asked. Webb said: “Hindi. I never thought of that. Hindi ko naisip yun. Saka Ted, hindi ako yung tao na when I was in my 20s inisip ko magpapakasal ako, ito yung gown ko. At this age, hindi ako ganun e. I live each day as it comes. Everyday, ginagawa ko lahat kung anong magagawa kong mabuti ngayong araw, happy na ako doon.” Off cam Off camera, Webb has several descriptions of herself. "Kung anong nakikita mo sa radyo yun na yun. Medyo matapang, mabait minsan, may pagka-kengkoy, minsan parang tomboy," she said. She explained that her boyishness comes from growing up with 4 brothers. Webb is the daughter of former Senator Freddie Webb. "Kasi yung mga kapatid ko, napagitna ako sa apat na lalaki. So sila yung palagi kong kasama. Nagsu-swimming kami, nakikipag racing pa ako sa kanila kasi very competitive ako noong bata ako," she said. Remains positive The hardest obstacle that the family has had to face together involved her brother Hubert, who is serving time for the so-called Vizconde massacre. "Hanggang ngayon, in all honesty, hindi ko pa naiintindihan kung bakit nangyari, and maybe I'll never understand. But, sabi nga nila, pag may nangyaring ganyan, you don't question God, you just accept. Mayroon naman mga mabuting nangyari after that in terms sa aming pamilya, mas naging close kami, pero yung sakit na dala sa amin noon, hindi ko pa nakakalimutan,” she said. She added, “I have to be positive about it. Dapat may magandang mangyari dito, and that's what I'm hopeful for.” As for lessons she learned from past experiences, she said the most important is, “I've learned not to be judgmental. Ayokong mag judge ng tao base sa naririnig ko o nababasa ko lamang.” ‘Teddy doggie’ Towards the end of the program, Webb gladly accepted a stuffed toy--a dog-- from Failon. Webb already has 2 pet dogs. She agreed to name the stuffed toy "Teddy doggie," as suggested by Failon. “Ito bigyan mo siya ng pangalan--si Teddy doggie,” Failon said. The "Failon Ngayon" episode with Webb was aired Saturday, February 20.as of 02/21/2010 7:20 PM
