Eala even took time off to watch a Bad Bunny concert.<\/a><\/p>\n\u201cI went to the Bad Bunny concert. I was in La Casita, so that was super fun,\u201d Eala said in a one-on-one interview with Vicky Morales on 24 Oras, which aired Thursday.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had a mini girls trip with my friends, and it was so memorable.\u201d<\/p>\n
It is in moments like these that fans get to see Eala’s side off-the-court, something she values just as much as her performance on tour.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne thing I value so much in my life is girlhood and friendships. I think it’s so important, especially at the age that I’m at,\u201d said the 21-year-old Eala.<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd they’re really the ones who also give me a break from my life when it gets crazy sometimes. So whenever I look at the genuine friendship and girls uplifting each other, although I’m also surrounded by that, I guess that’s what I get envious of in a good way. Although I also have that in my life, which I’m so grateful for.\u201d<\/p>\n
With her career demanding much of her attention and many of her friends sharing similar experiences, Eala said a relationship is not something she is prioritizing at the moment.<\/p>\n
\u201c I have so much to think about outside of boys. But I believe that if the time’s right, it will come when it needs to be there.\u201d<\/p>\n
Eala is in the Philippines for a short break and a series of engagements before returning to North America for her next tournament swing.<\/p>\n
