May 4 - Bus Rider

As a commuter, the bus is my choice mode of transportation. Unlike the jeep, it has aircon. Unlike the FX, it's generally more comfortable. But of course the bus isn't perfect. For one thing, the trip usually takes longer - either long way siya or ma-traffic ang kanyang ruta. There are also buses na pangjunk shop na. Some things na talagang nakakairita:

1. Two-seaters pretending to be three-seaters
2. Torn seat covers exposing the worn out Uratex foam underneath
3. Aircon that cool only the sitted people, but not the people on the aisle
4. Filthy window ledges - minsan may small ipis pa
5. Bad TV reception

Today, I add one more to my list. Rode the bus this morning with "Video on Board." Naka maximum volume ang audio - KALOKA! I asked the conductor to turn it down. I think he did naman. Pero ang lakas pa rin! Even with my headphones, si FPJ at Anjanette Abayari pa rin ang naririnig ko.

Tiis... tiis na lang... all the way to Ayala.
