Nitong Huwebes (June 11), inanunsiyo ng actor-film producer na si Piolo Pascual na balak niyang gumawa ng four films this year 2020, pero bigla ngang nagkaroon ng pandemic at pinatigil ang ikot ng mundo.

Pahayag ni Piolo sa kanyang Facebook Live stream ng Sun Life Philippines, ang life insurance company na kanyang ineendorso, “I was so booked. I had so many pending works.”

Bukod sa mga nasabing film projects, Piolo shared that he was also set to film an episode of an “ABS-CBN special” in New York. He was also supposed to go on a concert tour, but that, too, has been postponed.

"It was unprecedented. Nobody was prepared for it," ani Piolo tungkol sa global health crisis na pinagdaraanan natin ngayon.

Ganunpaman, Piolo made sure to stay “productive” as an actor amid the months-long lockdown. Bukod sa participation niya sa virtual fundraising programs and online shows, Piolo shared that he had made himself busy by “Reading books, [learning, and evaluating] what I did before, and how I can be better as an actor.”

Tungkol sa mga naudlot niyang film projects, nakikipag-usap daw siya ngayon sa kanyang mga direktor at scriptwriters.

"I'm just excited, because when we get back to work, it's like starting again. It's like being a new actor again, and I'm looking forward to that," aniya pa na obyus na na-miss ang buhay-showbiz.

At ngayong naapektuhan ang kanyang trabaho at kabuhayan dahil sa lockdown, nakapag-reflect daw siya nang husto.

"I just keep on growing as a person, as an artist. Iyon 'yung reflection. Ano pa ba ang puwede kong gawin? How can I reinvent myself? How can I evolve?" dagdag pa niya para nga naman may bago siyang mai-offer at hindi pagsawaan ng tao.

"You have to quiet down. I would spend so much time alone just meditating, praying, sometimes just thinking nothing, just looking out at the horizon. We all need that," pagtatapos niya sa kanyang naging buhay-quarantine.
