ME?! COMMUTE?!?!?!?! WAAAAHHHHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

What's keeping me from taking the job?!

I HAVE TO COMMUTE!!! Waaaaahhhh... Okay, this is embarrassing. I know how to commute from STC to my Lola's house in Ubay and from La Salle to my Lola's house in Ubay, from La Salle to ATC..actually I'm not sure about that.. Wah!!!

The interviewer asked me, "Oh you're from Ayala Alabang. Do you know how to commute?"

"A little."

"Di ka takot magbus, magjeep, magtrike?"

"Hindi po! Pero depende po sa bus."

Then once she told me I'm hired (though I still have to take the medical exam), she told the girl who's gonna be directly above me, "Oh. Taga Ayala Alabang yan! Turuan mo mag commute at bigyan mo ng mapa." And she said it so loudly that the whole office could hear.

"Madali naman po matutunan un eh..hehe!" (WITH THE HEHEHEHEHEHE?!)

Waaaahhhh...

So what's my problem with commuting?! I dunno why but I sweat a lot and I feel hot easily. Less than a minute under the sun, beads of sweat start to form on my forehead. And that's just by standing still! Imagine if I walk?! I'd be soaked. How can I present to clients with me looking like basang sisiw with jabar and all that?!

Another thing, I'm terrible at directions!!! I'd have to do it 5 times before I remember it correctly.

Okay..I'm superficial. I'm already thinking of buying a good pair of shoes. I'm thinking sneakers that really look good with corporate attire. I saw a lot of corporate people wearing those in Chicago. Hehe!

I'm finding this pretty funny actually. For years, I've always avoided commuting and now, it's like I'm required to know how to commute for my first job. It's like a slap on the face. Hahahahahaha!! WAPAK!!!

I'm thinking, this is a good thing! It's just hilarious. I'm already imagining myself lost in the streets of Makati, all sweaty and on the verge of crying. HINDI NAMAN!!! Exagg ah. Exagg talaga!

Well.. I can choose to take the car. But it's really not practical. Gas and parking would kill me..

Hayy.. Welcome to the real world, biatch. It's gonna eat you alive.
