"You have to be braver, you have to be stronger. Hindi mo dapat hinahayaan na mapektuhan ka ng maliliit na bagay. I think you just have to learn how to be happy, accept what you have, and don't be so negative," says Melissa Ricks about the lessons she learned from her experiences last year.

Pagiging mas positibo ang isa sa mga hiling ng dalagang aktres na si Melissa Ricks para sa kanyang kaarawan ngayong taon.

Ito ang sinabi niya nang makapanayam siya ng PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) at iba pang media sa birthday party na inihanda ng kanyang fans sa Mc Donald's Quezon Avenue kahapon, Enero 8.

Maituturing daw na parehong "best and hardest" ang nakaraang taon para kay Melissa, na magdiriwang ng kanyang ika-22 na kaarawan ngayong araw, January 9.

Paliwanag ng young actress, "Kasi, Nasaan Ka Elisa fit so much for me, napakaganda talaga ng palabas namin.

"I gained so many new friends.

"I learned some new lessons.

"I learned na I have to be responsible and I have to grow up.

"I did grow up, marami akong pinagbago."

Gayunman, sabi ni Melissa, mabuti rin naman ang kanyang mga pinagdaanan noong 2011 dahil naging mas handa siya para sa Bagong Taon.

Saad niya, "I think ngayong 2012, handa na akong harapin ang mundo talaga nang bonggang-bongga.

"You have to be braver, you have to stronger.

"Hindi mo dapat hinahayaan na mapektuhan ka ng maliliit na bagay.

"I think you just have to learn how to be happy, accept what you have, and don't be so negative.

"Siguro lagi na lang positive ang isipin natin ngayon.

"Basta ako, ngayon 2012, sana happy lang talaga. That's all I wish for 2012.

This early part of 2012, ABS-CBN has CRUSHED Melissa's hope. This is because Melissa is now doing supporting role only to other stars in Walang Hanggan.

Yup, halatang inis siya sa ASAP nung Sunday Jan 8 na napipilitan lang dahil kinantyawan siya nina Nikki Gil. Kung ganoon, hindi pa siya nakaka-move on talaga from her break up with Jake. Bakit naman kasi pinagsabay pa sila sa prod. numbers nila kaya ayun hindi napigilang tuksuhin.

Magaling ka sa Elisa. Mas maganda ang pagkadeliver ng character kaysa sa Original.

kasi sabi siya ng sabi kay jake na magpakabait ka....dapat siya din, kailangan din maging mas smart and alisto rin siya at wag pabola sa mga lalake....likas sa lalaki ang mambola, dapat lang maging alisto ang babae sa mga boladas at be smart enough na wag maniwala agad....para hindi maisahan..if not, talo ang babae at wala ng iba pang magagawa kundi maging bitter na lang about it until makahanap ng bagong mamahalin....

I wonder why kung bakit ganun na lang ang galit niya kay jake cuenca at parang hindi maka move on....cant think of any more justifiable reason for this but baka naisuko niya ang bataan kay jake tapos iniwan lang siya...poor mel...next time, be more careful at wag too much trusting sa kahit na sinong lalaki na manliligaw sa iyo...brotherly advise lang yan....it should take much time before you can trust a man....learn from the mistakes of Miss Kris Aquino...she has committed the same mistakes at least 3 times...too much trusting to a fault..so be very careful Mel and dont get deceived by good looks for looks is not a warrant for a person's good character..

Actually, they're both so professional inspite of not being comfy being near with each other, and she's really tough and the guy is guilty lol....hmmm her way of talking and reaction say's it all but ofcourse friends from showbiz and fans are hoping that they'll still end up together...which is not bad as long as the guy will learn from his mistake....!!

naimas - that's what I observed lately. kanya kanya naman tau ng standard. basta para sakin mas napapansin na xa. Kahit supporting cast lang si Melissa sa Walang Hanggan ero star-studded talaga ung series and to be part of it ay malaking bagay na un. Melissa is moving to the next level again as an actress.
