What have I been doing with my life? I am 20 years old. I should have done a lot by now yet at this point in my life, I cannot think of a single great achievement. Yesterday morning, I went to the 6th Annual PANAF IMC Youth Congress and I was lucky enough to hear form the keynote speaker, Mr. Lean Legarda Leviste,...

About 4 years ago, I was a graduating student still considering whether or not I was destined to become an artist or an architect. At this point I had already killed all of my other #ProfessionGoals e.g. my childhood dream of becoming a war pilot or a soldier. I have also always wanted to become an actress, but –let’s get real –I wouldn’t...

We are but a mere spec of sand compared to the vastness of the universe, and our problems or issues in life are even smaller. If anyone actually knew, I am constantly soul searching ever since I can remember. I was probably in 5th grade; I was [literally] crying, shouting to God about my purpose in life because I was so confused about...

Writing about the past has never been as magical as writing about plans or the future. This is probably because the past will never be as mysterious as the future, or at least I never had this enchanting feeling about the past to have me inspired in writing about it. Ironically, History, for me is one of the most fascinating topics there can...

A photo I took while shooting for footage around UST. Lucky for me to capture a butterfly resting on a statue at the botanical garden. March had been one of the busiest months this academic year yet I believe it was when I was most relaxed. By this time, I have figured out how to handle stress and bad situations by learning how...

A photo I took from the Art Fair Philippines 2015. February never fails to become significant. Again, February had been a month of trial for me. Let’s admit, it is tough to be facing the Love Month alone this year, but to be honest, it wasn’t bad. Being with friends and doing the things I love had been the highlight of the season....

I have been what they call “burara” since the day one. I have lost things from cellphones, to wallets and many more that I cannot even remember. Recently my uncle who also happens to be a priest finally had the rage to brutally lecture me about how careless I am. It was one of the worst awakenings in my entire life. It was...

Photo © Alyanna Palamos 2015 January had been a good start of the year for me. I was able to mark every week with a gold washi tape in my planner this month, which means there had been something really unforgettable and fun that happened during every week. Right now, I just feel happy. I still have many problems in my life that...

I am not an expert on anything. I can talk about art but I am still a mere student. I still have much to learn. And certainly, I am not one to be called an expert on self-improvement, fitness and mental health since psychology or sport science had not been my chosen field. I write this because I want to and I am...
