Hey there peoples of the web. Still no phone line, still no internet, not able to do assignments and stuff. Still using the horrendous globe tattoo stick that gave up on me. Damn you globe!!! I need to calm myself down. *deep breaths*
Okay here's the premise of today's blog post. If you have free time while driving you should try to get yourself lost. Why you may ask. Here's my theory about this. We usually travel on set routes. People who work in Makati who live in QC, without a GPS device or a map, usually only take either C5 or EDSA both of which as we know is the motoring equivalent of hell, especially during rush hour.
Now think about it. There are side streets connected to EDSA... Where do they go? One day I summoned up the old spirit of adventure and decided it high time to find out. *Do not summon up the spirit of adventure when you are; running late, having a medical emergency, having a call-of-nature emergency, going to an important meeting, low on fuel, have a date with your partner who hates you being late. So after doing a mental checklist I decided to turn in at the nearest corner and started my journey.
To make a long story short I found out a way to go to Makati without going through EDSA, I found another way of going to QC through Mandaluyong. So even though I don't own a map or a GPS I used my memory, observation skills to widen my knowledge of our road system.
PS. if you're in a hurry and taking this side street shortcuts please for the love of all things holy. Don't attempt to drive like this guy.
PPS: Buy a map. It's cheaper than a tank of fuel.
