The MRT was a bloody pain in my royal ass. What happened this morning is a perfect example of what would happen if technology breaks down. The MRT was down and I spent a good forty minutes at Pasay Rotonda trying to hail a cab.
Problem was that I only bring exact fare every morning.
P 7.50 - Las Piñas to Baclaran
P 5.50 - Baclaran to MRT
stored value ticket - MRT Pasay station to Shaw
P 5.50 - Starmall to Summit One
So, I had exactly P18.50 in my pocket. I couldn't ride a bus. Otherwise, I would've had to charm my way to the collector's pity. No, thank you. An ATM machine was nowhere in sight so a withdrawal was not an option.
What really got on my nerves was that I woke up extra early to give myself allowance for the traffic in Baclaran since it is Baclaran day but what the hey, I arrived at the office at 9:40.
I'm definitely moving. Like, tomorrow na.
