#NowPlaying: Sam Concepcion, Tippy Dos Santos, and Quest - "Dati"

Despite a bit of drizzle, the video still shows a sunny morning, where Sam Concepcion, Tippy Dos Santos, and Quest can still wear layers of clothing. The group sings alternately with Sam taking the lead and plunging the song into a pop beat right from the start. Balanced with Tippy's gorgeous vocals, and Quest's meaningful rap, the result is a song with equal parts fun, hard-to-forget tune and beautiful memories embedded in the lyrics.  There are also parts in the song, where they pull back and give you a relaxed vibe, like a moment where you can sit back and remember the past. "Dati" speaks of carefree days when you'd run around singing songs and playing with friends, even reminiscing about deep bonds that brought back good feelings.

Style Files: Joanna Yap

Name: Joanna Yap
Age: 21
City: Makati City
School: Centro Escolar University Makati



My style. I'm adventurous with my style. I like to mix and match clothes and accessories. I'm open to trying different patterns, colors, and textures.
Shopping musts. I buy clothes from thrift shops, Forever 21 ,and SM department stores (particularly Soiree, Redhead, Shopaholic, and Betty). 
Style icon. I like how Leighton Meester dresses up from laid back looks to sophisticated outfits. I'm kind of a dressy girl lately.
Style influence. My family and random people I see in the internet. I engage myself more in exploring the "fashion-community" of the internet now.
Closet colors. Neutrals and some bold and pastel colors. I'm not into neon since my skin tone doesn't go well with neon, so I guess my closet is more of: anything-but-neon-palette.
Fave accessory. I love wearing scarves!
Never wearing. Hot pink skinny jeans and neon pieces. They're not for me.
Trendy return. Flared jeans/...

The College Entrance Test Cheat Sheet

It's that time of the year again! Right after the UPCAT, a lot of other college entrance tests (CETs) are sure to follow. Here are a few things you need to know about some of the country's CETs plus a few tips to get in your dream university!


UPCAT (August 3-4)


The University of the Philippines College Admission Test (UPCAT) is probably the most well-known CET in the Philippines. (There were over 83,000 examinees this year!) It consists of four sub-tests namely Language Proficiency (both in English and Filipino), Science, Mathematics, and Reading Comprehension. It is also unique for its being "right-minus-wrong." However, admission doesn't rely solely on your UPCAT scores–your high school marks count as well.
