Adventure “daw”
I guess I won’t be spending the rest of my summer in some Mediterranean island. For I will be spending the rest of summer commuting back and fort to the Midwest. (Tama na ang pasosyal, baka ma-chorva ka ni Chikatime!)… Sayang, di ako mamapunta sa F1 grand prix sa Monaco and kiss asses with the Grimaldi’s sa June. (Tsk, feeling well traveled talaga… KM!)
I remember, when I first got here in the east coast about a decade ago… *Mandolin playing on the background* I only have a pair of shoes, which one of them has a hole in the middle and I only have around $40-60 but not more than $70 on my pocket which I have to live on until I can support myself with some decent odd job… I have to walk to school 10 miles everyday feeling hungry and live with hole on my shoe… (O kwentong barbero na iyan!) I was on my own. I have struggled big time! Butp t’was okay, I have learned though… (Kaya nga talagang ang bigas, asukal ko at skyflakes eh nakaimbak sa ilalim ng kama ko. Mahirap na at baka maging tag-gutom ulit tayo.) Ngayon medyo okay naman na ako, I have survived that poverty sa pagtitiis at pagiipon. (Sobrang paghihigpit ng sinturon at pagtitis sa maikling kumot mula kay VJ Bombay.) Don’t be so excited! Isa pa din akong hamak na hampas lupa though yon na nga lang ngayon hindi na $60 ang nasa bulsa ko kung $65 ang aking baong cash papuntang Illinois. I am richer now, by $5 more dolluhs o diba?
This is it! (Todo na ito!) For a month now it’s really been stressing me out for I can’t find fares that are below $500.00… Sabay para pang sardinas iyan sa sikip no! Mabuti na may mga koneksyon ako sa loob ng Amtrak. May kebigan akong nagbigay sa akin ang ticket papuntang Illinois. (Salamat sa Amtrak ticket! He/She doesn’t want her/his name to be mentioned for he/she doesn’t want her right hand to know what her left hand is doing ay ako wa akong paki ipangangalandakan ko pa, hindi naman ako Katoliko no, Hudyo ako!)
Salamat-salamat-salamat pero diba sana naman ma-upgrade ako sa business class diba? Ano ako si Reyns o kaya si Malu Fernandez nauupo sa klaseng pangkaraniwan? No never! Pero alam nyo naman, beggars cannot be choosers no (Out of mercy na nga chorva ng kebigan ko eh.) Sana hindi naman nakakatakot na parang PNR byaheng Bicol diba? LOL.
