I SHOULD'VE LISTENED TO MY PARENTS -- DONITA

Manila, Oct. 27, 1997 - It's a very repentant Donita Rose that returned to the Philippines this month after a long vacation with her parents in the United States.

"I have always been close to m parents. But because of Gary Estrada, I had a lot of fights with them. It's something that I regret. If I could go back in time I would listen to my parents," Donita told friends.

"There was a point when I was running away from everything. I wanted to quit show business. I was sick and tired of the chismis and I was burned out because I started working at 16. I waned to lead a normal life, but I had time to think and rest, and it made me realize what my priorities were, so I am back."

She now has a clear idea of her dream man."I'm going to marry someone who fears God, believes in clean living, and is single. Because I am not a home wrecker!"
