Pia Wurtzbach is Miss Universe 2015

I and the whole family just tuned in around 930 in the morning and what surprises us was that below the TV monitor crawling that Miss Philippines made it to the final 10.
Indeed, that announcement was an honor for all of us. But of course, let's all be honest with it, we want to bring home the crown.
And I believe that's every countries dream when they joined Miss Universe.
But as the program progresses, another good news came in Pia Wurtzbach, became a part of Final 5 and all the way to Final 3.
The Miss Universe 2015 pageant, obviously changed the way how the final question and answer done. Because at this time, it was the host holding and reading the candidates the question. Far from previous pageants where the contestants picked a judge, the judge asked question and they will answer.
The final question was a hard and somehow an easy one..."Why should you be the next Miss Universe?"
This was now thrown to three remaining candidates Ms. USA, Ms. Colombia and Ms. Philippines.
Then, came the announcement of the title.
I actually prepared my lists and typed something on Twitter just before the announcement was made.
Of course, Ms. Philippines was my Miss Universe and 1st was Ms. USA, and Ms. Colombia.
But it was totally reshuffled...2nd Runner up was Ms. USA and 1st was Philippines and the title was given to Miss. Colombia.
But, it seems that people are really holding back on something. Because on TV you'll see that most of them was suppressing their feelings.
And, after a few minutes, came another shocking announcement...Miss. Universe 2015 is Miss Philippines..." Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach!"
At home we were all rejoicing. Because it was such a beautiful gift this Christmas especially to all of us who waits for the crown to be finally vested upon our country's  representative.
The host apologizes on National TV for his mistake and that immediately showed on the viewers the envelope Pia Wurtzbach's name was printed.
The story of success of Wurtzbach is truly an inspirational one, because it took 4 long decades to win the title back again.
After our very first success beauty pageant story with Gloria Diaz and years after Margie Moran comes a triumph story of Pia Wurtzbach.
Again, congratulations for bringing the honor back in our country. We're so PROUD of YOU!
