The guy is optimistic, but not to the point of letting his guards down. He has been following all my posts about him, and is particularly thankful for all the positive words given by our readers. He knows that his mission is to bring honor to the country so he promises to even better his performance come judgment night. I asked him then to give a short message to everyone here (see after his photo below).

“Marami pong salamat sa support ninyo, Sir Norman at sa lahat ng readers na nagtitiwala sa akin. Gagalingan ko pa po. Sana po maiuwi ko rin ang title. For the Philippines na po ito!” (Thank you very much for your support, Sir Norman and all the readers who have their trust in me. I will do even better. I hope I can also bring home the title. This is for the Philippines!)
