Passenger Tales

Lent is already halfway through and before you know it, it will be Easter once again. I hope that our Easter celebration this year will be more joyous than last Christmas. Maybe a visit from the Easter bunny will liven up the celebration. I sure hope he’ll be bringing more than eggs to […]

I don’t know what got into me while I was in the city of my birth but i committed more than a couple of booboos (aside from the airport incident).
First off, I had dinner with my friends Melai and Kate at Casa Verde on my first night there. Whenever I’m in Cebu or […]

The saying “you can never go back home” is true. When I went off to college, I remembered that there were very few malls, hotels, and places to hang-out, and no fly-overs in Cebu City. I even remember only one casino, which was located near what used to be Cebu Plaza. During that […]

If you ask me what I like most about Singapore, my answer would be their public transportation system. I already rhapsodized in my previous post about their train system. Now let’s talk a little about their buses. Bus stations are near MRT Stations. Their buses look a like but not mirror images of […]

Based on my observations:
Busiest MRT Station: Cubao, I never saw this station empty. There are always snaking lines to the cashiers and multitudes of passengers are either embarking or disembarking to or from the trains. Next to Cubao are the North and Pedro Gil Stations. A friendly tip – when you’re going to […]

When riding the MRT or LRT I get irritated with passengers who lean with their whole body on the vertical handrails, making it difficult to impossible for others to hold on to the rails. There are very few handrails and for people like me who have a hard time reaching the circular things hanging […]
