Student Series 2: "Bahala Na" Attitude 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝 Manifesting a fatalistic attitude is nearly a norm inside a classroom and is often practiced by students who have lost their will or do not have any will at all to make a change in their life. They submit themselves to the Higher Being or anyone superior to them through tough times. Bahala na si Lord. Bahala na si Batman. Bahala na; babagsak din naman. Bahala na; at least tapos na. Aspasia Estiana was naturally born to be competitive for a reason so this kind of philosophy and bad habit is a blur in her dictionary. Alam niya ang sariling kakayahan at hindi siya kuntento sa 'puwede na' kung kayang higitan pa. Hindi puwedeng basta 'bahala na' kung may mababago pa.

But instead of feeling threatened, she sees them as some worthy academic rivals. Finally. Eventually, she builds a friendship with the kinder as she secures a special space in her life for the austere one... not realizing she just takes the risk of letting things happen out of hand for the first time. Little does she know, saving him a spot in her heart means taking her life into the pit of devastation.

Student Series 1: The Mañana Habit 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐝 Delaying tasks is one of the constant poor practices of some students, and cramming is their last hope to atone for their unwise decision.

She loves deadline hence working in full swing to beat the clock is her favorite habit. Bukod sa hindi madaling tigilan ang isang bagay na nakasanayan, mahirap din para sa kanya ang pigilan ang nararamdaman sa isang tao na hindi niya inakalang balang araw ay kanyang magugustuhan. A real smart cookie with a heart of gold puts her into a heated pan, melting her softly like a butter and stirring it with love. Could this person help her understand that making things ahead of time is always better than putting them off? Or, after making him feel loved and important, would she still do something that deliberately breaks a soft heart that it is too late for her to realize?

At the very end of her heart's beating, there's someone hiding, purposely locked up and sealed by none other than her own loving. That girl is known as Giovanna Chantria Asuncion. Who chose to forget what was all in the past but faced it again when someone she never thought would be connected in the crash... From smiles, laughs, and giggles, everything turned out so fast. It suddenly revolved around betrayals, lies, and disguises, which, in the first place, all of the people never thought they would actually end up saying their goodbyes. So... The question is, can they handle it all at once? When there are hidden masks behind them that they're not aware of; secrets that they don't want to talk about. Is love enough for them to accept the secluded trails of deceit they have already buried deep?

In a world filled with passion, one person dared to defy all - Xeverna Lael Costiñiano, the art wanderer. * * * Being an outcast in a family of master artists, Xeverna Lael Costiñiano knows she is an "art wanderer". Desperate to find a discipline to master, she becomes a jack-of-all-trades yet a master of none - an idea she never envisioned, which leads her astray. With one discipline yet untouched - sculpting - and a belief that being with passionate people will ignite her passion, she seeks an apprenticeship. The perfect place? The infamous art school - Royal Colleges for the Arts. The perfect mentor? No other than Michelangelo de Angelis, a man who not only makes sculpting his discipline but makes himself the god of it. But he refuses. For Michelangelo de Angelis, a man who seeks to be known as "Mikhail", there is no time to waste for someone like her. His blazing passion for sculpting, and a strong desire to be known more than the sculptor he was named after is something an art wanderer like her cannot understand. But it is not enough to stop Lael. Masters were once strangers; she can be one, too, even if she has to force herself towards it. August 1, 2021 - October 19, 2021
