MANILA, Philippines -- Actress-host Kris Aquino expressed her excitement as she and her children are set to move into their new home next month.
Aquino said she and her two sons, Josh and Bimby, will move into their house in Alabang on July 16.
"Siyempre pina-feng shui ko, July 16 at six in the morning. Tapos may dayap-dayap pa, may incense, may fruits, wala namang masama, gawin na lang. May compass pa kung saan mo ilalagay ang dayap, but the color daw, basta, go. Basta doon ako nae-excite at may home na kami, I mean totoong home," she told reporters.
Asked if her brother, President Benigno Aquino III, will be there for the house blessing, Aquino said: "Ayaw ko mag-blessing na public. I will just ask a priest to come on the 16th. Hindi ba bago maggawa-gawa ng ritual eh pa-bless ko muna? Mayroon naman akong super close na priest na kahit puyatin ko siya ay gagawin niya, kaya OK na 'yon."
The TV host-actress said, however, that she is planning to welcome cameras into her kitchen and dining area for a cooking portion, most likely on her morning show on ABS-CBN, "Kris TV."
"Regalo ko na rin sa amin na 'yung house namin ay para sa amin lang. Ang ipapakita ko lang sa inyo ay 'yung dining at kitchen kasi doon ko balak na mag-cooking portion, kasi 'yung kitchen at least na specify sa kung sa ano ang gusto ko. Actually, pagtingin sa house, doon sa kitchen area ay mayroon na kaming ready na ilaw. Excited na ako," she said.
"I'm so excited kasi bubusisiin ko talaga 'yung kitchen. Actually it's ready for us to move in it's just lalamanan na lang so excited ako. At bago ako umuoo ang rule ni Boy (Abunda) bawal umutang so inaral namin ang lahat ng receivables at collectibles ko so kaya. So sabi ni Boy 'go kaya,'" she added.
Kris wants 'Kris TV' to stay on air 'forever'
Aquino said she will be on leave in July as they prepare to move into their new home, but she was quick to add that they have prepared some episodes for viewers of "Kris TV."
"I'm taking July off because I'm moving to a new home so yun ang aasikasuhin ko. Kakabalik ko lang, we went all the way, nag-Baguio kami, La Union, Pangasinan. Kasi I told them na mas hindi mapapansin na dated kung nasa labas kami at ipagpatuloy namin ang RealiTV. Kasi kung walang Hot Topics, ang hirap, hindi ba?
"So pagbalik ko na lang talaga, kasi regalo ko na lang ito habang bakasyon si Bimb at pinayagan ko si Josh na mag-three weeks off din habang bakasyon ang kapatid niya. So super bonding kami at ma-organize namin ng maayos ang bago naming bahay," she explained.
Asked if her initial plan of giving up "Kris TV" won't happen anymore, Aquino said: "Nag-usap na kami ng mga boss ko. So, pinayagan naman nila ako na to have my leave of absence, and tamang tama with a new home."
She went on to say that she hopes "Kris TV," which is now on its second year, will stay on air "forever."
"Sana forever, para may trabaho silang lahat," she said, referring to her staff.
