Traffic!

Unbelievable, yesterday was my worst trip going home! I extend in the office for an hour for our operations. My log off time was 4pm. I got out of the office at around 5:20pm. There was rain all right. And of course I expect the worst, when it rained, there is traffic. I record the time on my whole trip and divided it into 4 sections.

1.    Makati to Kalaayan Road – 48.58.5

2.    C5 to Ortigas Extension – 15.57.3 (Not bad! I thought I’ll be going home smoothly. Traffic was only at the C5 U turn slot.)


3.    Ortigas Extension to VolleyGolf – 2.20.53.6 (Yeah, I got this right. While we were on the One Oasis condo, still at Ortigas Extension, an FX driver approached us and mentioned that Junction was heavily flooded from waste to down. I thought on myself, yikes! How am I going home then? So the driver of the FX made a U-Turn and said to us we’ll take another route. He’s confident that the flood was only in Junction. He promised that he’ll take us to VolleyGolf. Good thing that most of us is from VolleyGolf.  So there’s goes our adventure. We encountered some flooded areas but we were all good. Until we’ve reached my place. I’m glad VolleyGolf was not flooded that time, it was almost 10pm. I saw some tracks of flood though. But I was pleased with the smooth driving of manong driver.)

4.    Service Jeep to Home – 14.01.3 (Touchdown! But there was black out. Matthew, my kid brother told me earlier. It seems that only Palmera has no lights. Weird. The Meralco specialist was unable to search my Dad’s name since I was not able to provide the account number. Even when I provided our address. The last time I called, there no problem with it.)

Well, that’s it. I went to slumber for couple of hours and woke up at 4.40am to prepare.
