Screw the System
I can’t believe I stood for around 25 minutes in Quezon Ave. which was brimming with anxious commuters like myself. It was so packed that they even prevent entry because the station can’t take no mo’. To fan the flames further, all the trains that arrived at the station were PACKED… as in talagang PACKED. So it was kinda pointless and yet people kept shoving and pushing.
Man, elbowing other people never felt so good.
It took 7 trains to pass before I could get on one. Mother of God… Maybe, if they made the trains stop at every other station, maybe it’d be less of a hassle, plus, the turnover will be quicker. Diba? Diba? Diba?
Eto pa…
When we hit Cubao station, we were fighting for air insides (which means there was NO ROOM). When people tried to get in, the passengers inside weren’t budging (naturally). And then, in a show of utter lack of poise and consideration one kept shouting out…
“Ok lang yan, babalik ‘tong tren na ‘to!”
How uncalled for is that? That’s the problem with us Pinoys - we laugh at the face of adversity and do nothing about it. Do we just leave our problems to fate and not deal with it? Instead of dealing with the problem of shoving and pushing by making low-brow, uncalled-for remarks, why don’t we just suck it up and act like civil human beings? Dang.
