This is how I spent 15 hours in Singapore with my family - after my Baguio trip, and right before I left again for the UK. I know. I also don't remember how I survived it. Headaches. Lots of it. But, anything to squeeze in some family time (and Laksa).
Read MoreDo you see the stars, my darling? Looking at them now is like staring right at the past - the flickers we see are from hundreds of years back. Old stars, small stars, dead stars - those that shine on without the need for consent and those that have quietly retreated to a dim.
Read MoreAs somebody who almost always went up to Baguio for the summer growing up, I am quite familiar with the place. Not much has changed, really, since I last went there, except for maybe traffic and the weather. Baguio will always have a special place in my heart - and it's great to explore it this way.

Read MoreGoing on this trip I told myself I wouldn't take as many photos as I usually do when I travel (or do anything, really - ) and I thought I did, until I scanned through 3 devices....
Read MoreForgive me. I haven't written about anything I loved as much as this, ever since my heart got broken (which, I truly believe, will have to be my first ever heartbreak as a grown ass woman in her early twenties, capable of loving and leaving whenever she pleased, but apparently incredibly incapable of letting go of people who don’t love her enough to diminish their pride, break down their walls, overpower their inhibitions so love may overcome…but that’s for a whole different discussion - ) so I am thrilled - ecstatic, to share with you my newfound love for the UK. Vivat! Vivat Regina!
Read MoreHello Interwebz,
It’s been quite a long while since these blank blog pages have been filled - especially coming from (a gorgeous, life-changing, not-spent-long-enough, but will eventually be retold in these very spaces) UK trip - but here I am again. Hi there.
Just recently I’ve been traveling a lot, and being home now makes me feel away-sick; you know, longing to wander when you’ve to stay put. I guess it helps that we’re quite lucky living in the Philippines where we’ve access to all sorts of cuisines, food, and drink specialties from different countries. Exhibit A: Cocio Chocolate Milk drink!

Read MoreDear Interwebz,
I'm so sorry it's been so long since I've been in here. Quite disappointing, really, as much as I love writing and taking photos and catering to my art, I hardly do it anymore as I'm trying to figure out so many things that have been going on in my life, consequently making it difficult to devote the time to fill these blank pages. But here is a swoosh at it, hopefully it helps start an avalanche of content.

Read MoreI love putting on red lipstick to quick-fix any look, and soon I'll be posting a how-to on applying a smudge-free super red puckers. In the mean time, here's an easy guide to figure out what's the best shade of red for your skin color!
Read MoreHere is a makeup tutorial video for those like I who are reluctant when it comes to my love for makeup. Sometimes, I am too lazy to fix my face but have to, so here is a quick look for everyday office, school, or even pambahay rock, - goers. I hope it helps!
Read MoreHow we do our eyebrows is one of the most important parts of any girl’s make up as it shapes our face - either to soften, or sharpen our features (depending on what we want / need). In this video I will show you how I usually do my everyday eyebrow makeup (not necessarily for shoots, and shows - since that kind of make up can be a bit more tricky) - but a basic, super-simple tutorial for everyday on the go girls, in my case, withstanding long working hours of radio, meetings, errands, and gigs at night.
Read MoreHere is an idea: unoriginal, simple, and maybe even bordering vain - I answer your questions in video form, as I used to via hashtag #AskJoycekoday. I never really considered the idea, but since a lot of people online have told me that they appreciate and would like to hear what I have to say, here is this little project.
