For three consecutive years, the Miss Philippines - Earth titleholders were candidates in Binibining Pilipinas: Jeanne Harn in 2007, Karla Henry last year and Sandra Inez Seifert (photo) this 2009.Unlike Jeanne and Karla Henry who both failed in the semis of Binibining Pilipinas, Sandra was disqualified to compete 3-days before the finals of the said pageant last March.
And now, Sandra Seifert finally gets the crown she truly deserves, beating 49 other earth goddesses from the country.
She did an amazing performance during the grand coronation night of Miss Philippines Earth 20009 held last night at the Arena in San Juan City.
Had it been she was crowned Binibining Pilipinas last March, she could have been one of our best representatives for Miss Universe, which in the last 9 years, our candidates didn't make it to the semis.
Sandra will compete as Miss Philippines in the 2009 Miss Earth this October.

So how did my predictions list do this year?
Well, for the second consecutive year, I predicted the winner right.
Three of the top 5 finalists were actually in my own Top 5 and I guessed 7 of the Top 10 finalists, just like last year.
And how about the other three?
Except for one (Miss Sydney) who was 25th on my list, the remaining two (Miss Apalit and Miss Bataan) were somehow in my Top 20. Miss Apalit was actually 11th on my guess list.
