goodbyes part 2

taxi taxi taxi... how can i live without you?

for these past weeks, i'm always riding a taxi cab going to work. how can i not specially when on the brink of being late?

early this week i made a resolution. i will not be riding a cab to work. instead, i will be commuting via the national transportation of the philippines, the jeepney. so one day i woke up early and left for work early. to my surprise, the jeepney terminal was transferred a bit far from the usual. ok. is this a sign?!?!?! so i took the cab again.

i have been hearing news from my colleagues that the cab fare has increased to 40. lucky for me, i have always ridden on a 30. i swore to myself that when the day i ride a 40-metered cab comes, i will be hesitant to ride a cab. and show to world my very first philippine cab receipt. for the past weeks, i have never hit the jackpot not until today. i rode the cab again, and tada!!! to my surprise it was a 40-metered one. tada!!!

my usual 85 pesos worth trip is now 113. ouch. if i have known that this receipt costs that much, i would have brought bundles of receipt-paper with me. ouch.

though it hurts my heart, goodbye taxi cab trips.
