Oh Brother!
My brother recently changed his Facebook profile picture to this, I guess in (late) honor of Father’s Day. I remember taking this photo when he was still in Nursery, that one particular Saturday when he was so ecstatic to go to school with Daddy for the “Paint with Dad” activity.
Marion was the cutest, sweetest kid…
He really was until…

How To Deal
Not all of us have it easy; Not all of us were born with a silver spoon in our mouths. And it gets harder when others do not fully understand that even if we come from families who can provide well on our behalf (such as myself), we want to make it on our own.
This is one of the many things that I keep on realizing in this industry —- that the magazine industry is well misunderstood in...
Walking on Safe Ground
When people are shocked to find out that I have never been with anyone officially, I worry. Do I look like the kind of girl who gets the guys at an eye’s wink? Do I come across as the girl who never stays single? Do I act like all mature and wise when it comes to the love department?

And a Miley song was on
In high school, a lot of my peers started watching Sex and the City (albeit secretly), began hanging out with Junior boys from Don Bosco Makati and went on regular trips to spas and salons.

Clean Slate
Sometimes I wonder what exactly it is about new beginnings that people look forward to when starting over requires tons of changes, big and small, in every step of the way.
For the friend who decided to get out of a four-year relationship, it means finally looking after herself and realizing that she does not need anyone to make her feel validated. For the cousin who recently graduated from a...
