Singer-actress Angeline Quinto delighted her fans with a nostalgic and humorous story from her early years in showbiz, recalling the excitement of her very first airplane ride as a contestant on Star Power.

“Akala ko noon, never kong maeexperience to,” Angeline began her post, expressing disbelief at how far she has come.

She vividly remembered how thrilled she was before flying to Iloilo.

“Naalala ko yung unang beses na nakasakay ako ng plane, contestant palang ako sa Star Power and may flight kami papuntang Iloilo, 2 nights yata akong di nakatulog ng maayos sa sobrang excited ko.”

She recounted the moment smoke appeared inside the plane, sending her into panic.

“Biglang may umusok sa loob ng plane, nataranta ako, normal lang pala yun,” she said, laughing at her younger self. Upon landing, their handler asked her how she was doing.

“Pag land namin sa Iloilo, tinanong ako ni Ms. Crissy kung kamusta ako, sabi ko, Mabuti naman po kaya lang parang mejo nahilo ako baka jetlag po. Kasi ang alam ko once makasakay ka ng plane automatic may jetlag ka.”

The post ended with her present-day reflection, enjoying a cup of coffee on a flight from Cebu.

“Kaya eto nagkakape ako sa eroplano ngayon, at walang Jetlag kasi sa Cebu kami galing.”
