Ah, what a busy, busy morning.
I started gardening again before the carabao grass grows too long and would be hard to trim. Thunderstorms are a daily occurrence now (well, almost). After all the rainy season has set in. I love when it rains and I don’t have to water the plants but I don’t look forward to the rainy days. I hate typhoons and continuous rains. In our country, they are inevitable though. I am just praying there would no more strong south winds (habagat) that would bring flash floods and rainy days.
We had a simple lunch yesterday at Kuya J. It is not really that high-end but the food was okay. Would love to try their other recipes someday.
The birthday boy was busy. He and his girlfriend had a seminar at Uber in the afternoon. Next would be at Grab. The traditional taxis/cabs here nowadays are getting a little unpopular. Some smell and they are even expensive. Uber and Grab entered the scene a few years ago, they are now slowly dominating the market. You can’t sign up though if you have your car older than the year 2016. With Uber and Grab, you’ll know how much you would pay beforehand. Peak hours are quite expensive though. For group rides with fixed destinations, you can always use AUVs. The fare is way cheaper than the sedans used by Uber and Grab. Buses and jeepneys here are the traditional alternatives in public commuting. Trains like the LRT and MRT always break down. They are not properly maintained. I don’t always go out long distances and commute. Malls and supermarkets are everywhere. The recently opened SM East Ortigas mall is so near our place. You just have to take a tricycle ride then take a walk for about five or ten minutes to get there.
Still enjoying social media despite the ugly and bad news every day. One just got to be vigilant always. What about you guys?
