On my way home early this week, I paid the FX driver P20 and told him where I was getting off. I was not expecting any change so I already placed my wallet inside my bag. I was seated in front and I was the first passenger on board. I was happily surprised when the driver gave me P5 change. A few moments later the FX started filling up. I heard the other passengers telling the driver where they were getting off (a lot of them were getting off at the same place I was) and paying him. I noticed that the driver was charging them P20 instead of P15 that he charged me. Hmmm….it must pay to be the first passenger and paying early. Hehehe
I was almost home last Thursday when the tricycle I was riding had to stop. Half a dozen dogs were fighting in the middle of the street and the tryke was not able to get through. Actually only two dogs were fighting, the rest were just cheering them on and trying to get a slice of the action. The people standing by tried to stop the dogs but to no avail until they threw a basin of water on the fighting dogs. I could not get off and start walking because I did not relish wading through the fray. The dogs moved to the corner when water was thrown at them but still continued fighting. A small girl was almost caught in between. Good thing the dogs did not harm her. Anyway, the people continued throwing water at the dogs until the fighting broke up. We were finally able to get through. There are really plenty of dogs in the neighborhood that’s why every morning I have to be careful not to step on anything brown, yellow or sometimes even green.
