1
Okay, welcome back to our Miss Universe journey.
2
We had part one where we shared our story and our journey about joining Miss Universe Thailand.
3
So part two is about what happens after and our journey towards the big Miss Universe stage.
4
So your journey was very different, I think, compared to everyone else's.
5
One, because it was during COVID and two, it was in Israel.
6
And I had three weeks. To prepare. To prepare.
7
Yeah.
8
What was like, what were the emotions leading up to that?
9
Like going back, I mean, it's been four years, right?
10
I remember being so numb to everything that happened.
11
I was like a robot, you know, because after that, like, that was when the real work started.
12
And now you were working.
13
Yeah.
14
You know what I mean?
15
Like, you had other jobs, so you weren't just training.
16
And then you needed to find time to train.
17
And then at the same time, you had to entertain.
18
Like, it was just so much.
19
I remember waking up in the middle of the night till after I came back from Miss Universe, I would wake up and be like, holy shit, Miss Universe Thailand.
20
It never really fully hit because it felt so out of reach.
21
And then when it was actually you, you went into real flight or flight mode.
22
So you didn't have any time to process your emotions.
23
So process your emotions no matter what you go through because emotions are important and they
24
really allow you to understand what your next steps should be and what you should do next.
25
But one, it was a 22-year-old girl navigating a whole new life
26
when I didn't know a life other than what I knew before.
27
It was also managing life in the spotlight during COVID as well,
28
so I had to make sure I wasn't going to catch COVID.
29
And I was so insecure during that time.
30
Because once you win, you have just opened up the door, not just to pageant fans in Thailand, but now all over the world.
31
And obviously coming in with a very different mindset with a campaign that is so different that pageantry hasn't really seen before.
32
Being 22, not having the life experience straight out of uni, like all I knew my entire life was school.
33
And going through that, learning, like I was forced to grow up so quickly.
34
and it's a blessing in disguise now like I know I'm very mature for my age
35
but there's a part of you that grieves
36
that loss of yeah of youth a little bit so navigating through
37
that going into Miss Universe really just covered every single human emotion you probably could have thought of
38
and getting to Miss Universe the borders shut
39
because there was another COVID outbreak
40
so my parents who were going to come in couldn't come
41
in my team who was going to come in couldn't come in
42
And they figured it out in the end that my parents ended up being there.
43
And I'm so grateful that they were there.
44
And my little brother.
45
I don't even know how to talk about it.
46
It's still a really tough thing for me to talk about.
47
Because the version of me now and the version of me then are two completely different people.
48
And I hold it so close to my heart.
49
But I want it so far away from my heart as well.
50
Because I know that my experience at Miss Universe was not the best.
51
I know that I wasn't me.
52
I know that I wasn't the best version of me.
53
I gave it my all, but my all wasn't enough.
54
Nowhere near enough.
55
And I know that now, and I'm not ashamed to admit it now.
56
So I live with that regret until this day.
57
And I will for the rest of my life.
58
I know I will.
59
But it was just a lot of emotions.
60
That's just like the whole picture of it.
61
But I kind of want to hear more about yours.
62
You, you, well, we know.
63
We know.
64
We know Antonia Porcel in the pageant world very, very well.
65
Like what happened?
66
Like you disappeared, obviously.
67
From my life at least during that time.
68
I don't think I spoke to her until the final, like after the final.
69
She was the first person I texted.
70
Yeah.
71
My journey to Miss Universe was, I was really excited because I finally,
72
like I finally made it to Miss Universe.
73
I knew that there was a lot of pressure
74
because people were still holding on to the fact that like I had won a previous crown already.
75
So there was a lot of pressure on that since like there was no option to fail for me.
76
Just like fast forward into the competition.
77
It was very overwhelming because I'm someone who is not very, yeah, yeah, yeah.
78
I'm very like kept to myself.
79
I'm very introverted.
80
I choose when I burst out with energy selective yeah i'm selective
81
and during the competition you don't really have the choice to be introverted
82
because then you just kind of disappear yeah you know thailand along with like the philippines
83
and vietnam we're like pageant hubs right um
84
so i felt a little bit of pressure there fast forward to final night of preliminary
85
so the entire competition i chose to do my own hair hair
86
and makeup because I trusted myself and I knew I had all the right tools
87
and the colors that matched my face and I didn't have to stress about it.
88
I didn't even choose my preliminary dress until the day before.
89
I didn't tell my team.
90
I was like, I couldn't pick.
91
Yeah, so that happened.
92
But I didn't think, because I didn't get to expose Thailand as much during the activities, I didn't think that Thailand was going to make it to the final.
93
So what I did to make up for was be really engaging in the activities that I did do, do a lot of lives, engage with the team.
94
Not trying to win their hearts, but also to like, Thailand is here, Thailand is ready, pass me the ball.
95
And then final, I did a national costume, which was Promet Halani, the goddess of mother nature.
96
And I saw all the girls with these big outfits and everything.
97
And I was like, okay, my outfit is pretty small, but how do I make it look really big?
98
So I came out and everyone always says it was like it wasn't me.
99
And in a sense, I felt like it wasn't me because
100
that day I really tried to go all out with my makeup.
101
Because it was like a costume, right?
102
So I was doing darker eyeliner, darker makeup.
103
And I was lucky that I didn't really have to do my hair because I had the thing on my head.
104
So I got to save a little bit of time.
105
And I would always like, why before I go on stage?
106
Just in case, for a little bit of protection.
107
And then I came out and a lot of people were like, oh, she was blinking a lot.
108
And you know, all like the sidekicks were like, yes, it means that like, like a little bit.
109
And I was like, my eyes are so dry from the contact lens.
110
But also, I mean, it's a combination of everything, right?
111
Like I also didn't feel like it was myself, because after I came out I didn't even remember what I did on stage.
112
I just remember don't mess up, don't mess up, take your time
113
because I was counting the seconds for the other people
114
and it was it wasn't always the same
115
so I was like Thailand is gonna get the longest air time
116
and I'm gonna like I'm gonna like stretch it out and
117
if they cut me out then that's fine
118
but as long as I get my my tab at my point that's all that matters to me.
119
So then I was like okay the walk was long and I was like, what am I going to do?
120
So my, my, my, like the, like the pose.
121
So I was like trying to like move.
122
There's a lot going on in my head.
123
Yeah, I don't blame you.
124
But you know, like after, like the relief you get after prelims, the relief you get after national costume, like now it's just final.
125
Yeah.
126
I did my own hair for, for finals, hair and makeup.
127
I was contemplating like, should I let them do it?
128
But then I saw the line and I was like, no. I didn't talk to my team.
129
I didn't pick up anyone's calls.
130
I didn't talk to anyone.
131
I wanted to completely be in the zone.
132
And honestly, I don't even remember the night very clearly because it was so much adrenaline.
133
I just knew that John Legend was going to sing.
134
And I was like, I came out
135
and I saw Chrissy Teigen sitting in the audience
136
and I was like because she's like concorat also right
137
and i saw her during the opening dance and i was like
138
she's a legend i love her like she's an icon
139
and she just looked at me she's like i got this
140
and i was like i'm goosebumps i felt like i won already
141
um but yeah okay so my goal was of course to win anyone's goal is to win right yeah
142
But then I was like, I didn't want to be too hard on myself as well.
143
So I was like, which is okay.
144
It's still like pretty strict, but I was like, I know I could do it.
145
Just let me get there.
146
Top five.
147
And I was like, oh my God, we're almost there.
148
I was like trying to practice my breathing.
149
All I could hear was my heartbeat.
150
Because I was so numb to the sounds of the screaming already.
151
And every time I would always look for Pilas.
152
because if I looked at my mom
153
or my dad for sure I would start crying
154
so I looked at Pilat as my manager
155
because this was our dream together right like he's been with me from the first day
156
and he believed in me when I was like nobody
157
so every time like you see me looking off to like the right side
158
because I'm like looking at my manager even though like it
159
was pretty dark I was like somewhere over there um top
160
five I looked at him I was like you know you're thinking about all the possible questions that they could ask you, but you never know what they're going to ask.
161
I think the first one was cyberbullying, like if you were in a room filled with kids.
162
And a lot of people just think like, you know, when you answer, you just answer the question.
163
They don't think about all the things that go on in your head.
164
In my mind, that moment, I was like, okay, my audience is little kids.
165
That means you have to simplify your language for them, so that it's easier for them to understand.
166
You have to be direct.
167
You have 30 seconds to answer your question, answer the question, explain your answer, and how can that answer help those kids be better people?
168
So a lot of people always say like, oh, my answer was very simple.
169
But if you were in a room full of kids, you wouldn't make such a complex answer.
170
Right?
171
So I was like, okay, just, just, just answer it.
172
And this is also like, my answer was something I would tell anyone.
173
I try to keep my answers as realistic as possible, because I can't change the world.
174
Yeah.
175
Like, I'm not gonna say you can change the world when that's not true.
176
Not by yourself at least.
177
So I answered top five and then I got through and I was like, oh my god, we're almost there!
178
And then there's like so many things going on in my head, plus the pressure of just being there.
179
Yeah.
180
So I answered Malali Safsai and that was the first time I answered a question and I couldn't finish it.
181
And in my head I was like, I didn't know what to say, I didn't know how to finish it.
182
I knew I could but it wasn't coming out of my mouth and I just went blank.
183
And after I answered the question I was like, .
184
You knew.
185
I knew.
186
I knew from that moment if these two answer better, it's not me.
187
And I was like, you train so hard to get to that point and then your nerves kind of take over.
188
So I answered the question, I was like, that was not it.
189
So I looked at my mom and I remember looking at her and I was like, I was just hoping for the best at that point.
190
And then Australia answered, she answered her mom and I was like, okay, I think I still have a chance.
191
And then Nicaragua answered.
192
And I was like, that's it.
193
It's hers.
194
She had such a good answer.
195
She had a good follow-up explanation.
196
And I was just like, it's already hers.
197
As much as I want it to be mine, it was hers.
198
And that's why I was shocked when they said that Australia was second runner up.
199
I was like, this is it.
200
It could be me now.
201
It still could be me.
202
I still have a chance.
203
And I was like, now it's Thailand.
204
Now it's not just me.
205
It's Thailand.
206
We're here together.
207
I can...
208
Every time they called Thailand, I would always think of all the people watching at home.
209
Like, this is for you.
210
Like, this is for you.
211
This is our dream.
212
This is why we're here, right?
213
Thank you.
214
I ran out.
215
And I was like, this is it, guys.
216
This is what we've been waiting for.
217
It's like in arms reach, you know?
218
I was just like, was breathing, I was practicing my breathing.
219
I was trying to like...
220
But you know, like when we talked about MUT, when you're holding your hands, you just knew that it was yours.
221
I didn't have that feeling when I was holding her hand.
222
I didn't have the feeling that it was mine anymore.
223
I didn't feel like, I didn't feel that same confidence and that same like sensation as when I won Miss Universe Thailand.
224
And I was like, I remember saying to myself,
225
and I always say like, I don't want to take away something that isn't mine from someone else.
226
I was like, And then Nicaragua.
227
And I think I was in shock for a second.
228
I was completely numb.
229
I didn't even have the time to process my emotions because by the time I looked up, I've already been sweeped to the side.
230
She deserved it.
231
She had an amazing dress.
232
She had an amazing walk.
233
She answered the question really well.
234
And I always think back.
235
If I had just a little bit more, if I had just like a little bit more.
236
You can't blame yourself at all, though, because, again, everything has a silver lining.
237
Yeah.
238
And then I told myself,
239
you know what, whoever is like looking down at me or whether it's like Yamo or my grandma or just whoever,
240
you know, whatever spiritual being is looking after me knew that I wasn't ready for this kind of responsibility.
241
So that's why I wasn't really so hard on myself.
242
I was like, if it's meant to be, it will be.
243
And in that moment, it wasn't.
244
So it was just like really weird after that, you know, like you fight so hard the entire night and then you just go home.
245
And it was just so weird because you're just so numb
246
and so in shock that everything around you just feels like it's happening so slowly.
247
Someone's speaking to you, you don't even hear them because you're so like, like you're floating.
248
I get to my hotel room like so after like they cut the cameras.
249
I looked for my manager and he wasn't there.
250
And I was like, where the is Pilaf?
251
He was outside crying, but he didn't want me to see that he was crying.
252
I saw, I think my parents also left.
253
Crying?
254
Yeah, and I was like, where is everyone?
255
I need you!
256
But Pee Ying and Opo was there.
257
They were sitting like in front of the stage so they could actually walk up.
258
I think I was still like really numb.
259
Like I had like a tear.
260
Yeah, It wasn't like ugly crying and oppa was like wiping like my tears.
261
And then like some of the judges came and congratulated me.
262
But it just like, like I said, everything just felt like it was very slow.
263
Went back to the hotel and then there was like the after party.
264
And I was like, don't really want to go.
265
You know, the owner of Supra was there as well.
266
And the manager and we all kind of cried together.
267
My dad, like I always I see my parents.
268
I just want to cry.
269
I was just like, I knew I didn't let them down because just being there was like huge already.
270
And they were like, it's okay.
271
Like you did your best and you move forward.
272
You know, you learn and you move forward from what you learn and you be the best version of yourself moving forward.
273
Use your experience as a lesson.
274
I said my thank yous.
275
I went upstairs.
276
I think I was on my phone the entire night, like just scrolling, seeing everyone's reaction and completely numb.
277
No emotions.
278
I try to go to bed, wake up the next morning,
279
completely broke down, like completely just everything, crying.
280
And then I was like, I just I allowed myself to cry.
281
I allowed myself to feel those emotions.
282
You can't win everything, you know, but you can learn from everything.
283
I was crying.
284
I was crying.
285
And then I said, OK, that's it.
286
That's the last time you're going to cry, because now you have to be strong.
287
There's nothing you could have changed about that night.
288
You can cry as much as you want.
289
You could feel bad for yourself, but that's not going to change anything.
290
It sucks.
291
But maybe it was supposed to happen.
292
I'm still very grateful that I had the opportunity to stand there like in the last 35 years.
293
That's what I take with my heart.
294
we did it together, you know, like everyone that inspired me, you included, right?
295
Like everyone that inspired me, everyone, everyone that pushed me,
296
who saw my potential, they were in like the energy that was in my hands that night, you know, like it was,
297
it was all of us there.
298
It wasn't just me.
299
watching you go through that though like i remember when they announced the new miss universe
300
like obviously i was really proud of you for for getting as far as you did but at
301
that moment it was more like is she okay like i
302
didn't i don't want to say i didn't care about your title
303
because I care about it but I didn't care about it in that moment you know and it was just like
304
I remember she's okay I hope she's okay like is she gonna be okay
305
because everyone was so happy cheering and like
306
and I was just like you are you're so hard on yourself
307
and I've said this like in previous episodes
308
so I just had this feeling
309
that like something might be happening where you're not allowing yourself to to process i guess
310
and like you know your very life goes on kind of mentality
311
but i want you to know that and you do know
312
that but that that like you brought
313
so much pride to the country you brought so much pride to me as your friend to your family and
314
having a title is so much more than that you know and everything you've done since you've come back
315
and like as selfish as this sounds
316
i remember thinking my best friend's coming home
317
i was so excited to come home it sounds so bad
318
but it was like it was a selfish moment for sure
319
because i remember thinking like i think i need to prepare to for to lose you for a year at
320
that point we weren't that close to our other friends now yeah so i really only had you um
321
And I remember like, it's, it's, come home, work at home.
322
Yeah.
323
You know, be in your home.
324
Yeah.
325
But I didn't know that till this day, it's something you really can't think about.
326
Like, I didn't know.
327
So I appreciate you kind of sharing that with all of us about it right now.
328
Yeah.
329
It's also something like, I don't like admit, like I just saw yesterday, like Pilaf went for an interview where they asked him about like, how it was that night.
330
And he was just sharing like how he felt.
331
and then like flashbacks right yeah and I don't feel like I would like
332
if you were to ask me would I have done anything differently no
333
because in that moment that was the best I could do
334
and it was enough and it was enough it would I don't regret anything
335
and that's what I always tell people
336
when they ask for like advice like just do your best because at least when you look back you won't regret anything.
337
Yeah, and I'm on the other side of it, right, where I live with the regret.
338
No, I was just saying, I live with the regret.
339
And I can tell you, no matter what you do in your life,
340
living with regret is so much worse than being tired and exhausted and just everything you did, I guess.
341
Living with the regret is so much worse than giving something your all.
342
Because it's something that you will hold for the rest of your life, something that you can never change.
343
And it's still something I can't even talk about properly.
344
You know, like it me up every time I have to think about what happened, any time someone asks me.
345
Like, I say it so much that I'm numb to it now.
346
But yeah, like, give it your all.
347
Regret is one of the hardest things to live with.
348
Yeah.
349
And I feel like no matter what people say, like, oh, you did so good or whatever,
350
like, whatever it is, nothing can really fight what you say to yourself.
351
I remember when I didn't make it right.
352
I didn't even want to come back to Thailand.
353
I was so embarrassed.
354
I was so broken.
355
I was so disappointed.
356
and then I just like faked my happiness I didn't process
357
it at all man like there was like a few clips
358
that came out of me being like super cocky
359
and like yeah I look back and I'm like I'm disappointed in myself for
360
that but it was a defense mechanism because
361
if I allowed myself to feel like I don't think I would have been here today you know you know
362
and I know so much went wrong and I know so much.
363
Like, I know what I did wrong.
364
I know what I should have done.
365
There's also that regret of like, or that living of like the what if.
366
Yeah.
367
And as the years go by, it gets worse because I've grown into a woman now, you know, and it forced me to grow up like hell.
368
Like after not making it through the hate, the backlash, everything I went through, I grew up so fast.
369
And because I've grown up now, I feel like it's harder to live with because there's a part of me that's like, send me now.
370
Send me right now till like today and I will show you that I could have won it as well.
371
Yeah.
372
And that's all it is.
373
It's just like a...
374
Maybe it's like a way of soothing myself, of like knowing, trying to make myself...
375
Learning how to live with it.
376
Because it's embarrassing, man.
377
Like you go through like that, you represent your country, you fought so hard just to be the country's representative and you failed in that way.
378
It's...
379
You have to find a way to live with it.
380
and being the first one in like how many years?
381
Coming in with something so different.
382
It's like you wanted to prove that what you said mattered and it does matter.
383
But when you don't succeed in the way you wanted to succeed, it was like, oh, then maybe they were right.
384
Maybe you're right.
385
Maybe real size beauty doesn't deserve a place here.
386
So then now you have to go back and like unlearn things to relearn new things.
387
And that's when people ask me, like, how did I get through it?
388
One, obviously, like the obvious, like friends, family, whatever.
389
But it's the fans that actually helped me get through it.
390
Because when I didn't believe in my campaign and they still did, it gave me a reason to keep going.
391
And I needed that reminder just as much as they would have needed it in the beginning from me.
392
That part is a silver lining.
393
That part was assured, like the sense of community,
394
the sense of pride, the sense of love that Thailand has and it makes me so proud that I'm Thai, you know?
395
Because feeling this warmth, even though there was hate among it, but the warmth of the Thai people, it just...
396
Yeah, I got through it because of them.
397
And yeah, so just like whatever you do, give it your all.
398
Because take it from me, living with regret is not...
399
You never get over it.
400
As you can see, it's been four years.
401
Anyways.
402
But I know like it doesn't matter what what I say or what anyone says.
403
And I've mentioned this in a previous episode already, that even though you didn't succeed in the way that you wanted,
404
you made a really big impact that probably would have done more than what
405
you expected yeah yeah
406
and even though you live in regret you should still be really proud of how much you achieved
407
and how many lives you changed yeah it's
408
the other day actually I was going to work
409
and I ran into a fan and she came up to me
410
and asked for a photo and she was wearing this like white lace dress
411
and she said to me
412
because of you I'm like I'm I can dress up now
413
I'm not scared to hide my body like I'm wear whatever I want to wear
414
and it was such a like oh no man every time I hear
415
that I feel like I can breathe you know
416
because I go in public
417
and I still get social anxiety I still don't like you know how it is
418
and sometimes when you go in public alone but
419
when like the kind people come up to you
420
and like make you feel like everything you've gone through is worth it like
421
that was worth it just to hear that
422
or like people were like you made me want to come
423
and like take care of my health more like i know
424
it's worth more than any placement i know it's worth more than a crown the crown was more for like
425
or the placement was more like proving to myself
426
that i could have done it
427
and i think letting yourself down is probably one of the hardest things
428
because you're always your own biggest critic yeah
429
but also like yeah having people come up to you and and say all all that stuff.
430
It does make it worth it.
431
You know, it does help me live with it a lot easier, but it doesn't take it away.
432
I do like, as we close off, I do want to say like, our younger selves would be really freaking proud of us though.
433
Yeah.
434
Like, I, yep.
435
And- You like the cool kids to them, you know?
436
And we did what our grandmas knew we could do.
437
Yeah.
438
I don't want to cry anymore.
439
I'm on a date tonight.
440
I don't want to do my makeup again.
441
But I think through it all, right, like as different as our experiences were, the lesson that I think we both learned was that,
442
like you said, we are our own biggest critics.
443
And no matter what you do in life, if you really want it, you can do it.
444
If you put 100% of your heart into it.
445
That's what my dad would say to me.
446
Put 100% of your heart into what you love.
447
And no matter what the outcome is, you will always have a purpose.
448
And we also want to take this opportunity to thank all of the fans in Thailand
449
and around the world that saw our potential and cheered for us and gave us words that made us feel stronger,
450
that made us feel better.
451

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
