Dust! take Cover
Few months have past and my usual route gets more congested. The Mandaue government is putting up a flyover along my usual route so instead of waiting inside the PUJ with sweat and dust, i decided to take an alternative route. I guess the distance is pretty much the same but i need to walk to the tricycle stop and wait for a couple of minutes for some other passengers and up for another PUJ that stops near our office, a few blocks away, so i need to walk again.
Which is Better?
So i guess taking the alternative route was way better than my usual route. I still get dust and sweat but eliminate the traffic and the waiting time inside the PUJ and along the road for another PUJ...yup PUJ is how i go to work.
What's wrong?
So the PUJ just got its increase from P6.00 to P6.50 fare few weeks ago and now thay implemented another fare hike, its now P8.00 from the usual P6.50. I said to myself.... if the fare gets to P10.00 then ill ride my bike to work instead, yeah, get real... going to the office with bike? Could someone give me a bucket of water to wipe myself up?
Its not only the PUJ, also the taxi, from the usual P30 flag down to P40 flag down. They ask you to add additional P10 instead when you get off the cab instead of reprogramming their meter, but.... CURSE those who wants to cheat. It's still on July 24,2008 that you can start collecting additional P10 fare. Sheeeeeeeesh.....

Rainy day, Strong wind, Silent Work Place
It was raining on my way to work. To avoid the hassle of bringing out the umbrella, i walked fast, hehehe. I listened to the morning show again Good Times with Mo and it was fine even if the TRIO ( Mo, MoJo, Gracelee ) wasn't there Sam, Andy9 and Miguel took their place. Their topic was "What can't you leave without for a month?" and in my head, even if im not using it so much, it was my phone. Almost everyone has a cellphone nowadays and if the question before was " You got a cellphone? " now, it would be " You dont have a cellphone? " Everyone got to have a cellphone these days and texting is the way around with this technology.
Strong wind we got here in Cebu, Philippines and it was a silent hotel. I walk around the hotel just to stay awake, hehehe... I went to Mango Square to check out some PC games for sale there but sad to say the stores were longer there. I asked the sales lady in that area for the new location of those stores and she directed me to Robinsons. Since its near, i just walk towards the mall and sad to say, after searching the whole building, i was still not able to see the stores. Shoot, did she give me the wrong information? A little time left so i headed back to the hotel.
5:00pm, and im going home... waiting for jeepney, a lot of people waiting and as soon as a mid-full jeepney came, me and my officemate went up and oh my..... i only have my spine supporting my whole body. I wasn't able to sit, i felt bad but still stayed calm and waiting for an opportunity for a passenger to move out. Sort of like sitting in the air...... ohhh...im surely not gonna pay for my ride i said for myself, lolz and im sure the girls beside me see the my amazing position. Well, glad that there was one who move out..... and i payed the fare of course.
