You open another tab. It’s a job listing that kind of interests you, but you’re not even sure what the role means. You save it to your Google Doc called “career options?” and immediately close the tab. Five seconds later, you’re back on TikTok watching someone your age talk about how they just got hired…

There’s a certain kind of intimacy that doesn’t involve grand declarations or emotionally articulate conversations. It looks more like two people sitting on opposite ends of a couch, bathed in the glow of a show they’ve both already seen. No one speaks. Maybe one of them’s scrolling. Maybe the other is stress-eating pretzels. Somehow, it…

There’s a very specific kind of burnout that hits at 6:30 in the evening. You’re home, starving, and somehow too tired to boil water. You open the fridge. There’s rice, but no ulam. Eggs, but no energy. Chips suddenly start looking like dinner. Honestly? You’ve been here before. Meal prepping sounds like something productive people…

You wake up tired. You check your phone. The screen tells you to hydrate, stretch, express gratitude, and meditate for seven minutes while facing the sun. You lie there, staring at the ceiling.

April evenings came with a different kind of craving. Somewhere between late-day traffic and early dinner plans, people started lining up at compact parks filled with fairy lights, chalkboard menus, and the scent of garlic butter and smoke. In Quezon City’s Maginhawa district, a small cluster called Park & Picháy quietly opened early this month.…

Last night, Filipino screens lit up with something loud, shiny, and unmistakably Gen Z. March 9 marked the launch of Pinoy Big Brother: Celebrity Collab; a reinvention of the long-running reality franchise that has already started dominating For You Pages and trending hashtags overnight. Just like that, PBB is back. But this time, it’s a…

You’re 19, maybe 20. Technically, you’re still in school. Or maybe you just started working. You’re young, but somehow, it doesn’t feel that way. Instead of the carefree energy people expect from this age, you’re already asking the big questions: What am I doing with my life? Why does everyone else seem ahead? Am I…

You told yourself this would be the month you save. You even made a GCash folder labeled “EMERGENCY” in all caps, just to feel serious. But then you saw a tote bag. It was clean, minimalist, a little too on-brand. ₱499. Suddenly, your emergency fund became a canvas bag with a witty quote. It’s not…
