Play fair with the fare

November 27th, 2008 Anna 1 comment

Yesterday was the most tiring travel I have ever had. Well, that is from office to our house. I do not know what there was…could it be because it was the opening of Twilight? Nah…I guess no connection at all. There was completely no traffic but actually lack of available jeepney to ride. I decided [...]

Do not mess up with an OC lady who pays taxes

It is the birthday of my former office mate yesterday. Happy Birthday, Tricia! Well, the funniest thing I could remember is her encounter with a conductor. Too bad jeepneys do not give tickets as proof of payment. Anyways, it is her habit to pay the moment she takes her seat. It is a one hour [...]

Dishonest or first time to commute?

November 21st, 2008 Anna Comments off

Well, it pays to have an assistant if you are a jeepney driver. The one that I rode going home had his wife to accept payments and to give change. A jeepney could seat 20-24 persons depending on its size. The wife had a good memory, I would say. She knew who had to alight [...]

Even during commuting, I was reading the Twilight series. I did not care if someone would attempt to snatch my mobile phone. All I wanted was to finish the books. And, I did! I love Breaking Dawn. I saw the climax of the story in my mind and it is very good! There are many [...]

Twilight Mania

November 15th, 2008 Anna 2 comments

I joined the wagon of Twilight manic fans. I have been reading about it at The Couch Potato but I just passed it through. I am not really into showbizness that much. But then, everyone in the office seemed have installed the e-book at their mobile phones. Well, that could be a better thing to [...]

We had our team building last Monday and we went to this restaurant which is around three hours drive from Manila. It is called Isdaan and is owned by one of the local celebrities here. The trip was all worth it because the place was beautiful. I could say that it is Thailand in the [...]
