"Pride"

Editor's Note:  "PRIDE"

Hey Guys! This month is the much celebrated PRIDE MONTH..

PRIDE is defined as..

" a feeling or deep pleasure or satisfaction derived from one's own achievements, the achievements of those with whom one is closely associated, or from qualities or possessions that are widely admired."

but why do we celebrate it, if it is a part of the seven deadly sins? 

Well to answer that -- i really have no clue. 😁

bur one thing is for sure -- when we say pride in the LGBTQ community, it only means that we take pride in who we are and what we are capable of.. 
It is being proud of oneself.. 
Because (like what i keep on saying) we are all infact children of GOD.. 
and we are all made in his likeness.. 

and nothing can ever change that.

well this month we will join the celebration as we unveil our latest coverboy HAROLD UTTAM -- as he takes PRIDE on HEALTH & FITNESS..
and how taking care of our bodies is the best way to love yourself..

can't wait to show you the rest of the shots but for now..

Feast on our cover! 🔥

Stalk Coverboy: Josh Perez

Hi Stalkies,

It's been 2years since our last update on the blog! It's crazy how 2yrs just passed -- and now so much stuff is goin on in my life as a photographer and all.. but ofcourse STALK will always be apart of my roots. There are just so many friends that became models and models who became friends that we're featured. 

I just have so much plans on STALK -- and it being a flatform of style talks that just digs down to the soul of our models. My attempt to go on a new site last 2016 was unsuccessful.. but dont fret! Because we will be back! Ready to feature more people who are just interesting and beautiful in their own right. I feel like im going to vlog soon 😂 

But anyways here's our latest offering -- haha! We have one of the Mr. BPO's finalists "Josh Perez" on our cover for our 5th Volume! ❤

4 Years Of STALK..

EDITOR’s NOTE:

“GREATNESS is for EVERYONE..”

This was GOD’s message to me when I was too afraid to STEP OUT of my COMFORT ZONE a few years ago..

A comfort zone that was too scary to GIVE UP..

This is when I’ve realized that I can do more..

That your PAST won’t DICTATE your FUTURE..

That it’s never too late to START DREAMING..

When I started to realize that I am a child of GOD..

That’s when I started pushing myself to fulfill the great DESIRES of my heart..

That’s when STALK was BORN..

A labor of my DREAMS and FAITH in GOD..

“The only way to PREDICT the FUTURE is to CREATE it..”

Sometimes we have DEMONS in our head that would whisper that "WE CANNOT MAKE IT"..

and how all of our dreams are just crap and a waste of time and effort..

whenever I hear this at the back of my head..

I'd always remind myself of this quote..

which makes sense..

if you START doing it TODAY then it will directly impact your FUTURE..

same goes if you STOP..

 

I remember that first day of shooting the first issue with my bestfriend (Carren Baloloy) four years ago..

I was just FOOLISH..

and FEARLESS..

and I guess that's the reason why SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE are GREAT..

because they STAY HUNGRY for MORE..

so my ADVISE is to all you folks is to

 

“never.. never.. never.. GIVE UP”

STARTING the dream was not easy..

But keeping and coping with it CONSISTENTLY is TOUGHER..

Producing each issue was pure BLOOD and SWEAT..

And the greatest thing about it is that each issue became a LEARNING tool for me..

from the BAD FEEDBACK.. 

to the mess up's and delayed shoots..

but is was all FUN..

I remember shooting 21 models with 4 layouts for the amount of P3500..

just so that I could improve myself and get more connections..

 

 

I'd like to say that shooting regular people with extra ordinary beauty was more of a BLESSING to me than being a blessing to them..

Let me share a few unforgettable moments in the last four years..

• I remember working for a magazine’s street style page as a contributor and seeing my work printed in a glossy magazine was just phenomenal..

• I won’t forget being a judge on a fashion show for students in COLLEGIO DE SAN AGUSTIN Makati..

• And lastly working with the PRO’s in the industry while studying in one of the best schools in the metro is just LIFE CHANGING..

After four years of IMPROVING my CRAFT and BRAND..

Finally I’d like to show you guys our 4^th anniversary offering inspired by Kanye’s YEEZY..

I will talk about it further when the whole editorial is released..

So for now I hope you guys like the cover..

VOLUME III ISSUE IV: Let’s STALK a VARSITY..

“gone are the days when STALKING is TABOO..”

STALKING has been a usual part of anyone’s daily routine nowadays..

Like what I’ve said in the past—gone are the days when STALKING is TABOO..

Because of social media - checking out anyone through FACEBOOK, INSTAGRAM and other social media sites makes it easier for us to get to know anyone..

Without them finding out.. haha!

People stalking their EX’s..

Checking out a new employee at work.. ehem!

Or finding the where abouts of your favorite celebrity..

Checking out the status of your CAMPUS crushes..

Or those VARSITY JOCKS..

today STALKING is already EASY..

Well we have great news because we won’t give you folks a hard time STALKING..
TODAY you folks will get to know our 21y.o coverboy ALGIN JUSTINIANI from TRINITY COLLEGE..

He plays as a POINT GUARD..

And shares that he started playing ball when he was 4y.o..

He grew up in a household where men play ball..

His father and uncle are his main coaches and taught him how to enjoy the said sport..

They used to wake up early in the morning to practice..

Then he started playing in a league when he was a junior..

And moved to the varsity team during his senior year in high school..

He continued playing ball in college and recalls that the first one was in STI The Fort..

He stayed playing in that school for 2 years until their team got disbanded..

then he figured that life must go on and he must not give up on his dreams of playing professionally..

so he transferred to ARELLANO UNIVERSITY where he became the part of their team B..

then after some time their coach left and so he had to move now into RIZAL TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY..

he is currently taking up MARKETING while balancing playing his favorite sport as a part of the varsity in TRINITY COLLEGE..

and so just like our previous coverboys we asked him a few some fun questions that might be on your mind as well..

NOW LET’s TALK ABOUT GIRLS

STALK: What’s your longest relationship?

ALGIN: 7months (kroo kroo)

STALK: Have you ever cried because of a girl?

ALGIN: Twice na yata? Haha

STALK: Do you agree that ballers are BABAEROs?

ALGIN: Hindi lahat babaero.. konti lang yata kaming matitino hahaha..

STALK: Ever Been Busted?

ALGIN: Di pa naman. Hahaha

FAST TALK.     

STALK: Describe yourself in ONE word?

ALGIN: HOT. (Ehem!)

STALK: What’s INSIDE your mind when you’re inside the COURT?

ALGIN: SUCCESS.

STALK: Last SONG you’ve PLAYED?

ALGIN: DESSERT.

STALK: LIGHTS on or off?

ALGIN: ON

STALK: BOXERS or BRIEFS?

ALGIN: BOXERS.

STALK: SEXIEST part of your BODY?

ALGIN: My ABS. (obviously!)

STALK: When do you feel INSECURE?

ALGIN: when I see a more good looking guy flirting with my girl. (SELOSO?)

STALK: Any person who’m you’d like to switch your life with?

ALGIN: SUPERMAN.

STALK: How do you see yourself 10yrs from now?

ALGIN: I’ll be a successful baller with 2 kids and a gorgeous wife.. and ofcourse with a luxurious car and house while earning minimum 6digits.. haha!

STALK: what do you think about FOREVER?

ALGIN: absolutely YES.

STALK: What’s your usual STYLE like?

ALGIN: usual comfy shirt and jogger pants.. anything that makes me comfortable.

STALK: How was it shooting for STALK?

ALGIN: It was GREAT! I’m so happy and nervous at the same time.  

STALK: How do you define your style

ALGIN: CHILL.  

STALK: If you see yourself a few years back.. what would you ADVISE yourself?

ALGIN: WORK HARD.

STALK: Message to all our wonderful readers?

ALGIN: Hi guys, please read and check out my first ever shoot for STALK. Thank you for supporting us!  

   

FITNESS.

STALK: What’s your secret in being FIT?

ALGIN: Just NORMAL.. nothing special. I don’t do DIETS.

STALK: How do you develop those abs?

ALGIN: just extra workout after every practice on my CHEST and ABS.

EDITOR’s NOTE: VOLUME III ISSUE IV

“What got you here.. Won’t get you there.”

Is the title of the book that a man beside me was reading during our flight to Tokyo, Japan..

Ok. Well most of you may feel that I’m Mr. BIGTIME..

But I am telling you that -  it is NOT TRUE at all.

This was made possible by our HARD WORK for at least 2 years..

Making ends meet (pagkukuripot in our local language haha!)

PRIORITIZING when to spend and when to HOLD BACK (stop shopping)..

And also because of our dear FRIENDS who helped us make this trip POSSIBLE.

It was not like an OVERNIGHT WIN at a LOTTERY..

Or that scenario when a kid won that GOLDEN TICKET to see WILLY WONKA and his CHOCOLATE FACTORY..

Let me remind you folks that GREAT THINGS take TIME.

Just like how I’ve been managing STALK..

That book that the man was reading helped me realize a lot of things..
one is that what got us here on our 3^rd year won’t get us to the NEXT LEVEL..

And that If I would give LAME EXCUSES not to work on my shoots won’t get this magazine far from point A to point B..

So I had to immediately start shooting after 5months of being too busy with LIFE..

LIFE will always HAPPEN..

It is always our CHOICE -- if we would like to STOP and DROWN or let it take us wherever it wants..

Or we could swim and FIGHT the TIDE to help us get from point B to C.

So for our fourth issue this year we have a new cover boy ALGIN JUSTINIANI..

An athlete from TRINITY COLLEGE who has managed to deal with SCHOOL and exel in the SPORTS that he chose which is BASKETBALL..

this is in line with our VISION as a magazine which is to INSPIRE kids out there through each and every issue that we release.

and please be advised that we have changed the STALK header for this issue..

this is inspired by a huge underwear line’s blog..

and we will get to know more of our coverboy and his STORY in this issue but for now here’s our much awaited cover entitled VARSITY BLUES..

P.S

we would greatly appreciate if you’d  let us know what you think by placing a comment below.

Have Fun Browsing STALKIES!

To GOD be the GLORY.
