Itβs officially Day 9 of this vacay! Akala ko 7 days lang pero heto tayoβ¦ lagpas na sa quota pero laban pa rin.
Looking back at yesterday morning in Manaoag, everything felt so divinely timed. After visiting the Basilica to fulfill my promise, I stepped outside around 9:00 AM and luckily⦠there was a bus right there waiting for passengers. The destination? Pasay.
Hindi ko na kailangang mag-rush sa terminal or maghanap ng masasakyan. It felt like God and Mother Mary already knew my next move and prepared the way for me. No stress, just a straight path back to the city.
Coffee & Breakfast? Absent again. Parang nakasanayan ko na 'tong no bfast/no coffee streak ko.
I just waited for vendors to hop on the bus to buy whatever they were selling to get through the trip.
After about 5 to 6 hours on the road, I finally arrived at the terminal and booked a ride to my accommodation.
Pagdating ko, thank God for 7/11! Sila talaga ang savior ko sa bawat stop. Decided to have an early dinner and just stay in my room to recharge my drained battery.
π The funny thing Is... Itβs currently 3:00 AM on the 31st, and even though Iβm lying down in my room, feeling ko umaandar pa rin ako! Hahahahβ¦
After so many days and hours of vibrating on a bus seat, my body hasn't realized na nasa solid ground na ako. Iβm eating my 7/11 dinner and waiting for the bed to stop at the next station. I don't know if I have travel fatigue or if Iβve officially evolved into a human bus seat! Hahaha!
Whatβs the plan for TODAY? Now that the sun is about to come up, Iβm heading to Binondo Church. I want to see that beautiful church again and hopefullyβ¦finallyβ¦get a decent cup of coffee before I turn into a total zombie.
