I can't sing, I can not even whistle a tune! Perhaps not even an allora student series bb clarinet model aacl-336 could tame my voice.
But a fellow Filipina- Rose Fostanes swept a foreign nation off their feet performing songs of different genre in X-factor Israel.
She makes me so proud of our race that it feels almost as if I could also belt out Frank Sinatra's "My Way" without scaring off the entire neighborhood!
Join me follow her journey to victory through video performances I borrowed from youtube and get that "goody good" feeling of being one with the crowd and a winner who takes it all!

When asked
whether she thinks she could win the competition (X-factor Israel), this
46 y/o lady from the Philippines working in Tel Aviv Israel singing for
a huge crowd for the very first time said she will try her best. Apparently
her best wowed the judges and they gave the following comments and was
rendered a standing ovation!
"take it in, take it in because you deserve it so much" "...
"sounded like a CD playing, so perfect!"
"I just can not believe this is your first time on stage, it's crazy...no words!"
