Soups are the easiest dishes to make and can make you feel full in an instant. So this is my recipe for curried carrot soup (combining healthy...

Dalgona coffee had been quite a hype a few months ago but these days, the word Dalgona has become popular once again with Netflix’ hit Squid Game.

We live in a world of rules. There are rules that protect us, maintain order, and guide our way. But there are also rules that limit our potential – ones that say our dreams too big for us to achieve or that we aren’t made for the life we want to live. Before we let the rules of the world weigh us down, listen to the stories of Gabbi Garcia, Kylie Versoza, Mela Habijan, Inka Magnaye, and Chezka Carandang, that show us that the only rules that matter are the ones we set for ourselves. Free yourself from the weight of rules Mela Mela...
