-Tuesday, October 04, 2005- Late at Night

It's 11:45 in the evening.. at kakarating ko lang galing sa school... October pa lang, pagod na pagod at lamig na lamig na ako.. kakayanin ko pa kaya?! magtatatlong weeks na akong unemployed... (not that binabayaran ako before) kailangan ko na talagang humanap ng matinong trabaho para maka-pag ipon for the driver's license and a 2nd hand 3rd hand na sasakyan.. pag hinde baka February pa lang sumuko na 'ko sa pag-pasok!

One of the few things na sumisira sa isang lovely rainy day night *yeah, I love the rain!* eh pag-umuulan na kahit ambon(?) lang eh palaging late dumarating ang mga bus at mga tren (tren nga ba tagalog sa tram?), kagaya ngayon, 10:30 natapos ang klase namen, tapos late pa mag-si dating ang mga tren at bus.. kaya nung mga 30 mins. na 'kong nag-aantay sa bus (95) nag-lakad na ko, hanggang sa susunod na bus na sasakyan 'ko (mga 4 na bus stop), hindi naman yung paglalakad ang problema eh, hinde din ung ulan or yung lamig.. kasi sa totoo lang, I love to walk, I love the rain, and I hate the heat.. ang problema eh, yung mga mayayabang na driver na kulang na lang eh paliguan sa talamsik(?) ng tubig sa sobrang bilis nilang magpatakbo yung mga nag-lalakad sa sidewalk.. okei hindi pa 'to nangyayare sa'kin pero kanina may mag-inang nag-lalakad na kasabay ko, actually nasa unahan ko sila, tapos eto yung isang sasakyan na parang nakikipag-karera nabasa tuloy yung dalawa... hay naku! kakawa tuloy.. Ang isa pang problema yung mga pampam (as my 4 yrs. old friend call prostitutes) sa mga 20 mins. kong paglalakad, 7 pampam ang nakita ko, yung 2 sa kanila hinarang ako... medyo natulala nga ako eh.. haha..

1st pampam: hi.. (seductive voice)
me: eh?
1st p: I said hi (then smiles)
me: *shocked*
1st p: How much money do you have?
me: oohh.. I'm not interested! (sabay takbo!)

then after a few meters of walking I saw the third pampam
3rd p: hi (seductive voice) [pina-practice yata nila yun.. pare-pareho sila ng sinasabi eh.. hehe]
me: I'm hetero... (smile then walk away)

then a few steps where I'm supposed to take the last bus, I found the 7th pampam..
7th: hi (seductive voice)
me: I'm not interested, I have no money and I'm hetero
7th: okei, I'll wait for the bus with you.. just to make sure you don't get into any trouble..
me: aaahhh.. okei.. as you wish..

sa loob-loob ko lang iniisip ko: "okei lang kaya 'tong babaeng 'to?"
pero thankful na din ako kasi sinamahan nya ko pag-iintay sa bus, atleast hindi ako mukhang tanga na nag-iisang nag-aantay ng bus habang napapanisan ng laway.. ang negative nga lang eh:
una, 4 or 5 times yata kaming hinintuan ng mga sasakyan asking "mag kano per hour?" habang may 3 na pilipino na pinag-chichismisan kami.. at
pangalawa, pinalampas nya yung chance nyang kumita.. hehe..

I'm weird, yes, in my own little ways, I am weird and I'm aware of that... (I used weird not eccentric) and I guess that's one of the things that my mates appreciate about me, and that's what I like about them too.. (ahh, a group of weird people!) weird things actually happen to us (tipong, yung ibang tao eh mapapa- "tsk, tsk.. sa inyo lang pedeng mangyare yang mga bagay na yan.. kakaiba talaga kayo").. our facts are weird and the way we think is weird... and the situation of where I live is just one fact to be added to the "weird list", (or atleast that's what they say).. you see, it would technically take me 5 mins. (10 mins. max, with the traffic and all) to drive home from school and vice versa, if and only if, I had my own car (or driver.. or a friend that would drive me home, who'll end up as my driver.. hehe!) but since I have to take the bus and the trains (tram) it takes me a whole hour (sometimes, 1 hr & 45 mins. pag-traffic) to reach home... and that people, they say is weird.. ewan ko lang sa inyo.. but I don't think it is...
