What a Monday!!!

Oh, I HAD the worst Monday in my ENTIRE working career yesterday, LOL! But it never dampen my high spirits...

Let me start. I didn't make it to my usual 8am time-in at work (I am always targetting it so that I have enough time to catch up with my old friends at Ortigas after office hours-5pm). Then I lost some money after lunchtime and I don't know exactly how and where but I have a hunch that it happened when I took out my cellphone just to take some pictures of the park inside the company premises, lols! (What a way to lose money!).

Its a good thing that I met up with my friend after office hours. We met at Mega A around 6pm. He just applied for a job somewhere in Ortigas Center too. Then, it started to rain when we were about to head home. At Ortigas Station, there was no bus going to South and we waited there for almost 30 minutes. It is very unusual because buses in Edsa usually come and go. So, we decided to go to Alabang instead. Luckily, there was one bus there going to Batangas but unfortunately, we were standing (fortunately, one good guy gave his seat to me hehehe!). We were informed that the traffic jam going South is terrible due to Iglesia Ni Cristo's grand anniversary celebration which was held somewhere in Calamba; that is why the driver will do a detour (exit to Cabuyao going to Los Banos then San Felix then Sto. Thomas) just to avoid the traffic jam.

My goodness! It is a good thing that I was with my friend so I didn't get too annoyed, he brought lots of food with him hahaha!

Then when we finally made an exit to Cabuyao to avoid the traffic, the bus broke down hahaha! So we have to wait for another one hour to transfer to a new bus. I got home 3am in the morning hahaha! Imagine that? the usual 1 and half hour ride became 9hours at most!

But looking at the bright side, I just considered it as a ROAD TRIP... Very unusual really... having that kind of detour just to get home. I am very thankful to the driver. If he didn't think of that detour, I guess I can get home not 3am but 5am! Goodness me...

So, I was not able to make it to work come Tuesday hehehe.. What a waste! But anyway, I got a picture of the park inside the company premises. Hehehe, I was just too shy to take pictures of the main fountain as well as those awesome galleries in the hallway... I wish to drink coffee in the park some other time :) and visit the library too... I love to get my hands on those books!!! I even had a chance to visit the West Core yesterday and it is totally awesome! I mean it is like having a mall inside a company. I can even pay my Citibank and Metrobank bills there without going out of the company premises.
