Rains are here to stay and with it, a lot of road accidents happen.
Slick roads, flood and low visibility are just a few reasons why road accidents happen. It would also be a big help if people take care of the nitty gritty details of car safety. Sure it’s good to focus on making your ride look great especially with nice looking grills or maybe chrome rims and maybe even dodge seat covers but focusing more on the care being road worthy on a downpour is more important.

I am not fond of commuting during rush hour. If we travel by car, this means traffic on the streets and yes, traffic which makes us lose time, waste gas and get agitated we’d be late to wherever we are going.
If we travel by the train, well, this is definitely easier. There is a major issue though: mad crowd. I mean throngs of people, lining up a few hundred meters long till they reach the first step of the first flight of stairs that will take them to the MRT platform.
They will not obviously push you but you will feel it. They will not shout at your directly to move your big bag away so they can pass. Or wait, was it directed to the one behind you? And yeah, can you please move an inch because all of you want to go home already and the train won’t move if this person is preventing the door to close?
No one is a VIP here. No one.
These are just a few kinds of people you will get to meet while riding the MRT during rush hour.
During the limited time a week I spend riding the train, I am fortunate enough to ride during midday and go home at mid-afternoon. Crowd? None that I see regularly. So yeah, yey!

I woke up early to wake up the hubby for his super early meeting. What I meant was, I am sleepy and it’s not even 10am yet.
If only they just have video conferencing services, there would have been no need to travel to the other side of the metro for that. I think the hubby needs to present some documents so he really has to be there. On the other hand, this is entirely impossible because our net connection is crawling…like a snail…
Oh well, maybe it’s time to do some cleaning up since I can’t do more work online.
Ciao.

Summer is here! Though we have been experiencing an allergy-inducing few days this week because of the drizzles and cloudy weather, summer is definitely here. The neighborhood pool almost always has people swimming. I’ve been seeing tanned skin these days and I think the tan is more from beach bumming than spray on tan.
We spotted these guys who are running in a run we went to last week. We were on our way home because we only participated in the 3k category and I think these guys are from the 21k. They look tanned, right? I hope they put on sun block before they ran.
