“I wasn’t able to see him right away as the dead has to be buried in 24 hours sa mga Muslim. But I got to visit his grave later. I’m glad I got the opportunity to meet him before he left. I realized kaya pala my heart was whispering to me at pinapupunta ko sa Mindanao to meet him, kasi kukunin na pala siya few months later. I was indifferent nung una kasi I was raised without him. But when we met, it dawned on me, may tatay talaga ako and it’s him.”
Career-wise, she can’t complain. Her last album with two of her own compositions did well. As part of ASAP Sessionistas, she was able to do shows in Kuwait and six cities in the U.S. She had a successful concert at Music Museum “Ang Aking Awitin” in September, and now, as 2011 ends, she’s having another one in the same venue on December 29, Thursday, “MRS Sitti”, that will help victims of Typhoon Sendong in Mindanao. “MRS doesn’t mean misis na ako, ha. It means Most Requested Songs. My guests are Brigada, Duncan Ramos and Martin Nievera.”
