When I was 18...
by CHICKEN FEED By Robina Gokongwei-Pe - November 6, 2005 - 12:00am

I love writing for the Philippine Star because it’s a therapy for me
by CHICKEN FEED By Robina Gokongwei-Pe - July 28, 2004 - 12:00am
I like writing for the Philippine STAR because: 1) It has 100 times the circulation of the newspaper I used to handle for 11 years and which I eventually sold. 2) Max Soliven is my Confirmation ninong (sipsip!)....
Why I need a facelift
by CHICKEN FEED By Robina Gokongwei-Pe - April 4, 2004 - 12:00am
One Sunday morning I had to decide which was more urgent – writing an article (as I had not written for the past 60 days), or getting a facelift. I figured that not writing an article would get me ejected from...
Beaching around Sydney in a ’50s swimsuit
by CHICKEN FEED By Robina Gokongwei-Pe - January 11, 2004 - 12:00am
I created history for myself when I finally flew out of town last Christmas with hubby and son, and without bringing a yaya. I am too embarrassed to say how old my son is because it will show my skills – or...
