In Manila, Laarni came face to face with more hardships and suffering.Without her family to turn to, she found a lot of friends who shared her interest and passion in singing. Through them, her knowledge in music was enhanced, boosting up her confidence to sing. Her voice as her asset, Laarni found ways to send herself to school. To graduate from college would be the first step toward fulfilling her promise to her family. But when the opportunity for a showbiz career knocked, she chose to drop school for the meantime and give PinoyDreamAcademy a try.With PDA, she could find herself delivering her promise of achievements to her family earlier than she expected.

 Vocal Ability Laarni, a full-lyric soprano, is noted by many Filipino fans as a person with an extremely powerful voice. Many people also noted her flexible singing style. In the contest alone, she has sung fourteen different musical genres within eight gala nights. Her vocal range is also attributed to be extremely wide, which has been proven by her performances prior to and during her stay in the academy- * Although Laarni is a full-lyric soprano, when she sang "On The Wings of Love" on their 9th Gala Night as part of the counterpointing theme with Jay "Bugoy" Bugoyan, Laarni was able to sing the lowest notes in the first part of the song, which are commonly the lowest notes a mezzo-soprano can reach. * Laarni was able to sing full falsetto on her own version of "Light Of A Million Morning" therefore complying with the demanding tessitura. * Laarni was also shown being able to sing continuous headtones, while almost entering the whistle register range in her showdown with Catherine "Poy" Palma, the PDA Season 2's Honorary Scholar. * Guest Juror, Dulce, during the 10th Gala Night once commented that her powerful voice was perfect enough to sing alongside her partner, the 2005 World Championships of Performing Arts finalist and winner Jed Madela, showing how Laarni can compare to even the more experienced singers and performers. * On August 24, 2008, Laarni performed on ASAP (as her prize for being Star Scholar the previous week), and performed "Hiram" with the Divine Diva herself, Zsa Zsa Padilla.  |
