"Masaya po ako ngayon e," she told the entertainment press on Tuesday, May 4.
When asked why she was happy, Katrina said: "Masaya. Masaya lang. May trabaho. Family ko. Friends ko."
Change of perspective
Katrina admitted that her perspective in life has changed, although it's not something she did intentionally.
"Hindi naman sa sinasadya ko na gusto ko ng lumabas, gusto ko ng makipagusap, gusto ko ng maging ibang tao. Di ko plinano lahat. Basta naging ganun lang. Siguro dahil sa experience. Di ba, experience is the best teacher? ," Katrina said. "Actually sila sa taping, nagugulat sa akin e. Lumalabas na ako, tapos nakikipagkwentuhan na ako sa kanilang lahat."
According to Katrina, she was placed in circumstances that made her change.
She added: "Hindi na po ako rock. Tao na ako."
Katrina said she was a "rock" for three years. "Para akong nakatulog ng mahimbing ng sandali," she said.
Although she didn't mention it directly, the actress was obviously alluding to her sex video scandal with Hayden Kho Jr.
Puzzle pieces
So what made her decide to change?
"Siguro nakilala ko lang yung sarili ko. Nalaman ko lang na bakit ganun, bakit di ako nakikipagusap, bakit di ako lumalabas," Katrina said.
She also described her state right now as a 'catch up' phase.
"Kuma-catch up ako sa mga dati kong di ko ginagawa. Para tayong mga unfinished puzzle di ba? Tapos yung mga hold back natin yun yung mga pinupulot natin para mabuo ka. Hindi ko sinasadya na pinupulot pero nilalagay ako ng pagkakataon na parang, ganun ba yun, parang di ko naman ito ginagawa dati ha," Katrina explained.
Not ready for relationships
But despite being more relaxed and amiable, Katrina said she's not yet ready to have a boyfriend, adding she has learned to focus more on other people before herself and her lovelife.
"Mas gusto kong ayusin yung sarili ko na ako lang. Tapos iintindihin ko family ko and friends ko. Dun lang yung utak ko," she said.
Katrina further explained: "Hindi ko naman kailangang hanapin sa isang tao para mainspire ako at para ayusin ko ang buhay ko. Pwede ko ayusin yung sarili ko na mainspire lang sa buhay ko, sa trabaho ko, sa mga taong nagmamahal sa akin."
Effect in work
And how has this change affected her work?
"Sa pag-aartista ko, siguro mas focused ako ngayon. Mas gusto kong pagbutihan yung trabaho ko, kasi gusto kong suklian yung mga taong nagtitiwala sa akin. Kasi dati,pag tinanong nyo ako, 'wala, okay lang, uuwi akong Palawan.' Pag wala akong trabaho, ok lang. Tapos na ako sa sarili. Tinutuloy ko yung buhay ko para sa iba na," Katrina said.
As Lynette, Katrina plays antagonist to Camille Prats in "Munting Heredera." How will this kontrabida role be different from her other portrayals in the past?
"Iisipin ko pa po ha. Pero dapat talagang paiiyakin ko yang munting prinsesa na yan, si Sarah," she said, referring to Camille's role as Sarah Crewe in the 90s film "Sarah... Ang Munting Prinsesa."
"Munting Heredera" begins May 9 right after "Captain Barbell" on GMA Telebabad.
