Around that same time, I dreamed of becoming a writer, a MYX VJ, even to the point of impossibly imagining myself as part of the Star Magic Circl

It’s kind of crazy to think it’s been almost five years since we first released our SB19 Collector’s Edition back in 2021. First released at a time when everything was just starting to fall into place, the issue captured the energy of the “Go Up” era—when dreams were getting bigger, and five boys were slowly turning those dreams into something real. The cover story takes you through their journey at the time, their mindset, and the quiet in-between moments that fans don’t alw

With classes that start as early as seven in the morning and stretch until five in the afternoon, often followed by an extra hour or two for extracurricular activities, they still find the energy to show up and push through. For those who are part of campus publications, especially those “Batang Presscon” who regularly join inter-school journalism competitions like the National Schools Press Conference, that level

They’re learning how to show up, how to stay grounded, and how to keep going even when the spotlight feels heavy. Here’s how th

Some stories don’t ask to be told, they demand to be felt. They linger not in words, but in the quiet corners of the heart. And sometimes, in those still moments, we catch ourselves asking, “okay pa ba tayo?” For Joshua Garcia, that question has echoed through the many characters he’s brought to life. From that charming boy from Batangas on “Pinoy Big Brother: All In” to a character with a heavy emotional baggage, he’s grown right before our eyes, shaped by the spotlight of a
