Worn Out

I’m slowly feeling the stress and pressure of going to and coming from work. For this week, I’ve been feeling so tired and worn out whenever I get home at night. The travel beats me up quite badly..

The travel going to work is not much of a problem, since I take a shuttle (which are actually colorum). But the long queue in the shuttle terminal especially Tuesdays is very stressful. Worst case, you have to wait for 45 minutes for the next shuttle going to Ayala to arrive. Such a waste of time.. if only I wasn’t thinking of my safety going to work. So I’m obliged to be at the terminal approximately 2 hours before my target work time. So I can’t help sleeping on the shuttle on the way to work..

Going home is very tiring as well. Taking a jeep just going to the MRT Ayala station is difficult especially during rush hour. A lot of commuters are definitely going to be competiton as far as securing a ride is concerned. When you get to the MRT station, the very long queue at the ticket booths and bag inspection area before getting inside will really test your patience. And the worst of it all, the jam-packed train is such a challenge. I really try to position myself in the train where I think I won’t be squeezed very much. And ever since I started working in Makati, I never get to sit ever inside the MRT. :(

So when I get home, I’m so exhausted already.. I only wish it would get better.. Anyways, a few more weeks and hopefully the change in my work schedule would improve my travel a lot. *sigh*
