“I never binge-watched when I was in college,” 25-year-old Milka Romero admits. “I just learned how to do it now.”

If, during her days at the Ateneo de Manila University, Milka had no time to station herself in front of a computer watching television show and films for hours, that’s because she led a not-so-ordinary student life. In the morning, she would train with the women’s football team as its captain, then hit the books for her management economics degree. And as if that wasn’t enough, she would hop over to oversee her Japanese restaurant, Roku Sushi + Ramen, right across campus in Oracle Hotel, owned by her mother, Sheila Romero.
