Can you believe this heat? Morning and mid-day runs for food as quick break from work ceased being fun after being subjected to the unjust levels of heat and humidity we are currently being tortured with. I don’t sweat that much but I hate how I end up feeling sticky in just a short while.

This is…

I've only been out of the country twice so far, and both instances have been to visit Singapore. On my first visit as one of the Filipino teenagers to represent the country for Sunburst Youth Camp, I was fascinated by how it resembled a real-life Sim City. A little less than six years later, I…

If there's one luxury I miss, it's the luxury of being able to read a book at my leisure. I'm so glad I was able to do that this weekend, but I wish we have more hours in a day just so I can have more me-time. I don't even ask for much; it can be as simple as having more time for p…

I just got home from spending the weekend at my friend Myk's house in Luisiana, Quezon with our other friends Ed, Ronnie, and Kayle. It was the feast day of Lucban in honor of San Isidro Labrador, the patron saint of farmers, and the aim was to join the celebrations and eat kiping, just like w…

Back in 2012, I participated in TOMS One Day Without Shoes, an annual global event that aims to spread awareness for children's health and education. More than anything else, that event made me realize how lucky I am that I get to do my day-to-day activities with my feet safe and protected. I …

We all want the happy ending, the dream come true. But wha…

I have a ton of backlogs and I really need to finish Act One of my New Adult novella, but this past weekend I got the itch to paint - and so that's what I did.

I have a lot of mixing palettes but I was already running out of space to mix new colors, so instead of muddying them up, I just whipp…

It took me about three hours to get home last night, I'm currently nursing a massive headache that wouldn't go away even after two Advils, and I haven't been able to do any writing done even though the deadline for my manuscript looms closer... but I couldn't stop smiling. 
It was …

Of all the brands we have worked with, one of my personal favorites is shoe brand TOMS because not only do they offer stylish and comfortable shoes (have you seen their F/W 2014 and S/S 2015 collections? LOVE!), they're also making waves globally through their One for One movement, wherein eve…
