I woke up at 6 am and left the house at 730 am. At that rate, I expect to arrive in school by 830a.m.
The MRT was temporarily shut down when I got there by 7:50a.m. The queue to enter the boarding area reached 2 flights of stairs. I queued. (Walang sinabi ang stored value card sa bulsa ko.)
By 8:00 am, I was able to get inside the boarding area. When I got there, four trains passed, and I can't get in because they're all loaded up. Four trains with 3-5 minute intervals passed before an empty train came to save our day.
The door wouldn't open. People were panicking. When it finally opened, STAMPEDE!!!! Everyone rushed in!!!!
Heto:
"Easy lang kayo! Magkakasya tayo lahat jan!"
"Yahoooo!!!!!!!"
"Anu ba yan, antay naman."
Well, morning MRT adventures has become constant and enduring companions in my life.
That is followed by a very long walk from EDSA to Makati Avenue, to avoid traffic and longer jeepney queues.
Crowded. Full. Surrounded by so many people.
I do not know them. But we communicate.
We cramp up in one common space.
Sharing this life's hell and hope.
I am a hollow piece of shell in the middle of it all.
