Rolando Joaquin "JOAQUI" Mendoza
17 years old from Paranaque City

The latest addition to Kuya's teen houseguests, Joaqui has a great passion for sports. "I love the adrenaline rush. I love competition." And he's real aggressive when it comes to Taekwondo where he holds a black belt. He doesn't sing nor dance though he also excels in basketball, swimming, soccer and boxing. He has yet to achieve Olympic Level status in Taekwondo but he has competed in a lot of local tournaments. His latest was the National Taekwondo Championships where he placed second in a team competition.

His love for the sport made him compete with an injured foot. "One time I had to compete na may sprain yung right leg ko. Nainjure ako the game before. Naiiyak na ako sa ring pero sabi ko bahala na. Bumato lang ako ng bahala na na kick. Basta I was praying the Hail Mary. Tumama naman, naka-knock-out. Hindi naman tulog kaagad. Lumaban pa (ang kalaban) noong una. Medyo nataranta nga ako. Pero pinigil na rin ng referee, 'Huwag na hindi na kaya'. Pumutok na kasi yung labi (ng kalaban). Napahiyaw ako pagsipa ko. Sabi ko sa sarili ko 'Aray, bakit ito ang pinangsipa ko?'"

Even though he admitted that he has had about 20 flings and 5 girl friends, he has yet to find the girl of his dreams. He had his first girlfriend at the age of 12. Joaqui also confessed to two-timing and pouring on the charm when needed to. "May pinagsasabay ako. Anim sabay sabay ang pinakamarami. Isa lang official doon. Mahirap hindi ko namanage. Pinakawalan ko agad. Isang linggo lang. Iba-iba rin kasi personality nila. Kung ano trip nila, nagpapa-alila ako sa kanila. Kung anong gusto nila bahala sila. Yun nga maasikaso ako, kapag may sakit, 'nakabili ka na ba ng medicine' ganun. Sobrang lambing. Lambing lang. Yung pinaparamdam ko sa kanila as if sila lang ang babae sa mundo." He can't really describe his ideal girl at the moment for serious relationships are still far from his mind. But if when that time comes Joaqui wants someone who would really understand him. "Medyo mahirap sagutin yan kasi wala pa akong sineseryosong babae sa buong buhay ko. Gusto ko yung makakasundo ko, yung parang alam kong hindi ko mapaglalaruan. Pag medyo mas mature na ako siguro yun tamang girl na dadating ang seseryosohin ko."

This stint on PBB Teen Edition isn't Joaqui's first TV exposure. In fact he was 10 months old when he modeled for his first TV commercial. He has had several print and TV ads for various telecoms, food and beauty products in the last couple of years.

Teen Edition Aldred Gatchalian

PBB Teen Edition Aldred Gatchalian That voluntary exit, though. The rest of the PBB Teen Edition housemates are here. Aldred Marc "DRED" Gatchalian 16 years old from Pasay City Dred just graduated from high school at the top of his class. He can never forget the look on his parent’s faces when he stepped on stage to accept his medal. “Mahirap na masaya maging valedictorian. Pero nang makita ko ang tuwa ng parents ko during my graduation bawi lahat ng pagod ko sa pagaaral.” He wants to take up Nursing for the course will surely help him find greener pastures abroad. It would also help his mom, who is earning a living for the family solo. No, his parents aren’t separated. Nor is his father deceased. Aldred’s dad just hasn’t found work for almost three years now. This disappoints Aldred a lot. “Nakikita kasi niya na may sandalan siya,” referring to his lola, who’s helping out with the family’s finances and his Ate’s college tuition fee. “Madalas yun ang pinagaa
