Long walks and the LRT2
…went out to old sta. mesa today…i had to look for this place where i’ll be attending a workshop on friday…it was a pretty weird experience….i was able to ride(for the 1st time ;p) the LRT2….i didn’t know where to go and how to buy tickets…and when i did get to buy one, the dipenser gave me 38pieces of 1 peso coins as change for my 50 peso bill…;p i got down at the pureza station (so what if it was a pretty short ride….first time naman e…;p) and went to look at the station’s location map…it looked like old sta mesa was a pretty short distance from the station so i decided to walk….reaching the main road(magsaysay avenue), i decide to ask a traffic aid for directions. he tells me "malapit lang yung old. sta mesa, diyan lang yun sa may traffic light" so i continue walking…(problem is, when someone says its pretty near i usually walk instead of ride the jeep….sayang kasi)…i later find out that i should have taken a jeepney to old. sta mesa…;p…it took me about twenty five minutes to walk there….sure it didn’t take that long…problem is, i was walking along magsaysay ave. at 10:45am(the smog plus the heat equals todo kadiring malagkit na libag at pawis ;p)…i got to the workshop venue only to find out that there wasn’t anyone there to entertain me(i should have called first)…okay na rin…coz it would have been pretty embarassing as i looked like a wet rag….the good thing is i now know how to get there…and besides the workshop start early (7:00am ata)…so even if i do walk from the station, it won’t be that hot ;p
