I - HEART - DRIVING

Yes, I love it. You can make me drive all the way to Tagaytay and back, lagari, everyday. Driving for me now is such a relaxing activity, almost Zen like; the half hour behind the wheel in the morning and another half hour in the evening are my quiet times of thought and meditation. Yesterday as I snapped out of my faux (or kunwa- kunwariang) trance, I got a bit disoriented - I didn't know which side of Pasig River I was on - the JP Rizal side or the side after Mandaluyong bridge. Both look so alike!

What I'm trying to say is - it is simply incredible how smooth my engine runs, I DO NOT remember ever having driven it like this before. Maybe that was a long time ago when it was brand new. But what that SWAT team on Connecticut street did last month was something close to a miracle. Honestly, I find myself having to blow my horn a lot now -- at pedestrians. My car is so quiet that on busy streets, these bagay-mag-pasyal-sa-luneta pedestrians don't know that I'm just an inch away from their butt or hip or shoulder (for pandaks) so I have to HONK HONK!!

So...once more...with feeling - I HEART DRIVING. Click and check out the blog entry I finally completed.
