Good morning philippines!

A prefect entry for my first blog... I was on my way to work at around 6:45am thinking that I’d get to office 7-ish. I thought it would be a smooth drive since it is still early but man was I wrong! I GOT STUCK IN A 2KM STRETCH FOR 1 FRIGGING HOUR!!! The first 15mins of the ‘calvary’ was manageable, thinking that I'd still be early if ever the traffic lessens. I just have to go a little faster than my usual speed. But man, after 30mins! All the remaining patience in me have disappeared. Imagine, I moved maybe not more than 200 meters from where I was 30mins ago. Thanks to the tricycle drivers who seem to believe that they are driving a paper-thin vehicle that their "counter-flowing" won't cause any disruption. AND especially to the four-wheeled car driver that cannot understand SIMPLE English, I'm close to believing that English literacy in the Philippines is next to zero. ‘ONE WAY’. Is it really that hard to understand? Why do you insist on going the wrong way? Don't you realize what will be the effect of that? YOU ARE THE CAUSE OF THE TRAFFIC JAM! Hay, self interest before other's. One more thing happened, walang tindang puto. Puto naman... bakit ngayon pa? Gutom na ko eh! When at last I survived (I thought) the agony of heavy traffic, I arrived at Cubao, EDSA... here we go again! But at least I was going 20kph. Not bad, compared to an hour of almost zero movement. Actual time of arrival: 8:35am. What a great way to start a morning.
