Ingrid Elizabeth Spencer Lobregat

Just weeks after my life..(ahemm i mean) MLKI ended,
by serendipity, i stumbled across this article in the internet saying
"Ms. Boots Anson Roa would soon be a part of Munting Heredera....."
I say "YAY!!!!"
timang-timangan mode. HAPPINESS. finally, I'll see her again regularly.
Okay. Scroll Scroll continued reading the article.
"....as the scheming Ingrid Lobregat"
nice name.
wait..what? the what?
back read.
did i just read "scheming"?
did someone on the blasted internet defined "the" Boots Anson Roa "scheming"?
okay, overacting. it's just the character that she is going to portray.
I smiled, wiggled my nose and shook my eyebrows like an evil maniac.
this is going to be interesting.
and voila!! indeed interesting it was.




The beautiful, Elegant, Scheming (trust me she is "scheming" really) and paranoid
Ingrid Elizabeth Spencer Lobregat
on a venture to get back at Anna Montereal (Gloria Romero) who is the object of her ex-husband Enrique's (Robert Arevalo) love and attention.
Ingrid here is a pathetic woman who wouldn't and couldn't let Enrique go.
She has the money, the attitude and enough cause to wreck havoc in the Montereal's lives,
really, there is nothing worse than the capacity of a woman's broken heart to take revenge.
Actually, Ingrid is really, really, really annoying of a woman.
She is mean, pathetic, paranoid, scheming, i can even call her evil.
Now, why do I love her if Ingrid is all that bad?
First, are you kidding me???
it's Boots Anson Roa!! heck! I'd still love her even if she will play someone close to being a minion of darkness.
Second...,
Come on..the woman deserve a break! the bottomline of everything is, Ingrid is just a woman in-love.
And third, lets all be honest here. Who would want to hate a woman as lovely as that?
I wouldn't. that's for sure.

The drastic, rough transition from being the feisty but kind, gentle,homely and motherly Remedios Sebastiano from MLKI to the
glamorous,socialite,elegant,mean and evil Ingrid Lobregat
amused me the most.
If asked, who would I like better.
I'd still go for Remedios the prim and proper, on the other hand, Ingrid is a woman to learn lesson's from.
To fight for something/someone you love the most and to never give up on them is an act of bravery, though for Ingrid's case, it is way beyond pathetic and way more than infatuation.
Seeing the prim and proper Ms. Boots Anson Roa play Ingrid's character effectively is amazing for me.
The lunacy of Ingrid is getting on people's nerves but it tickles mine.
They are spiteful over her but I am sympathetic to her.
They hate her and I so Love her.

(Her royal evilness Ingrid Lobregat)

She may be evil, but golly wow!! Ingrid is one heck of a lovely villainess.

The modern day red lipped, red nail polished witch.
No sweet Snow White's could ever match.

Now, to all the Damsel's in Distress:
"BEAT THAT."

The Anatomy of an Angel's Face

Everything about an angel, particularly this angel...is beautiful..
nay- PERFECT.
but like the the critic that I really am..
I decided to elaborate each feature..
(Deep breath..this is not gonna be hard..since the beauty is glaring.)
here we go..






Lets start with those tantalizing eyes.
The eyes that conveys all the needed things to be conveyed.
The eyes that more often than not speak up when the lip are too tightly sealed to make any remark..
They say that the eyes is the window to one's soul,
well, I must say...
this woman has a very beautiful window,






The Nose


The perfect nose line,
the tip, the bridge.

The Lips.


the lips that spoke of kindness..
the lips that shushed her children at night through a bad dream.
the lips that delivered unforgettable lines.


How much could a mortal like me define an angel's beauty?
Every now and then while trying to dissect each characteristics I'd bump into a wall.
A dead end.
the bottom line of it all,
there is only one word to describe those features precisely...
"Gorgeous"

"The Roles She Play Everyday"

People see Ms. Boots Anson Roa as a figure to look up to.
I see her as a walking pool of good example and everlasting inspiration.
Throughout the many years that this great lady walked in the carpeted floors of show business, she had played hundred of roles.
From the naive, sweet, kind, gentle, loving, martyr, pathetic, desperate, paranoid, mean, scheming and evil.
she did them all very effectively, i should say.
But....
after a moment of thinking, an idea sprouted from my mind.
a spur of the moment, a split-second thinking.
I asked myself, what could be the different roles that she juggle behind camera.
So, thank you to my wild and untamed imagination, I have created a list.
If these items are either right or wrong only one single person could prove that.
It is the lady herself.
Now, I take you to my list.

I believed, it is one of the things that I admire about Ms. Boots.
the constant admittance that, as a person with higher knowledge and experience in life, she still learns important lessons from those younger than she actually is.
"It is very humbling to feel the solid earth under your feet, to stay grounded and humble."
that is how, I see her.

The Traveling Elegant Soul.

From Asia, Europe, and the great America,
she had visited them all.
Like the way she lived and is living her life, every journey and voyage is never just a luxury for the eye but also a haven for the mind and soul.
For her, it is the chance to recollect thoughts and learn new lessons from.
Lessons that she collects like souvenirs and then is shared to others as "pasalubong".

Before she became the teacher and the learner, and before she became the traveler she was first and foremost,

Her father's daughter.

Before becoming someone Else's queen. she was her father's princess.




The sister I'm sure everyone would want.

The Loving Wife
the woman every man would want to bring home to his parents.
the woman no man would hesitate to ask her hand in marriage.

The Cool and Caring Mom
I don't know the Roa Brood personally but the way I see them, read articles about them and hear things concerning them, I could make out a clear picture of how they were raised by their mom.
They are more like friends than parent-children set-up without compromising the respect.





The doting lola
I came across an article where Ms. Boots was asked to write down a list of people very influencial to her life.
She wrote "all" her grandchildren's names.
She said that it is not that old people always impart lesson to young ones, but somehow, sometimes, it happens the other way around.



The Good Friend

And of course, the role that we came to know her of.
The Actress.
Finesse, Elegant, Graceful, Professional
That is Ms. Boots Anson Roa to a T.
