A Boring MRT Ride

ZAP!!! You snap back to reality and found youself seated on the blue seats of MRT. You were lucky tonight. Normally, you would have to push yourself and swim into the crowd to be seated. Like gladiators at The Coliseum, you'd fight for a place in those plastic wonders. For three nights in a row, you were unlucky... until tonight. So there you were sandwiched between a an old man who looks like he's going to cough out his lungs and a sosyal-looking girl talking to her friend beside her. You were about to reach for your iPod when suddenly you heard something that rung in your ears for 3 full seconds...


Girl 1: Omigawd! You are so buko na. You like him, davvah?!?!
Girl 2: Hell no! He's like parrrang so emo! Palaging naka-black!!!
Girl 1: Don't lie, girl. I'm not going to make kalat naman your secret eh...

You wanted to burst out with laughter but you thought twice. If you're going to make fun of these girls, it would be hard to escape if they decide to slap you with their Chanel of a purse, order their miniature of a dog to attack you, or drown you with thick bills of money. But then again, you'd like the thought of being drowned in money...


Girl 2: Ay naku! I so know you. You're madaldal when I'm naka-talikod. Proven fact, girl!
Girl 1: Omigawd! I can't believe you'll say that. Hindi Kaya!!! Ahahaha...(the most annoying laugh ever!!!!)
Girl 2: Yeah, right! Remeber when we were in LA ZALLE to visit "Girl 3", nasabi mo sa barkada niya about my semplang sa bike! Come on!
Girl 1: Omigawd! You're just shifting the topic. You so like him talaga. Like super!
Girl 2: Yeah, right! Hindi kaya! Ahahahahaha ( okay. this was the most annoying laugh ever!!!)

Trying not to laugh, you listen intenly on their conversation. Two sosyaleras keeping you awake on a ride from work is so much better than listening to the boring MRT voice-over ads. You were beginning to smile when you noticed your shoulders doing the laughing. It was shaking uncontrollably. You glanced at the girls and they have the dagger looks on you. Uh-oh, here comes bills of money...

dati noon a long time ago ito ang narinig ko sa jeep kung paano pumara sa jeep ang isang sosyalera :

"Stop the jeep mama. Para na sa tabi!" You know with the Kris Aquino accent.

All the other passengers started laughing after she went down...

Haha. natawa talaga ako from the very beginning. lol Hindi pa ako nakasakay ng MRT. lol. Omigawd! You so.... like super market here.

hi! sorry for the late reply... 2 weeks of no internet, thanks to PLDT. linked you up already.:)

as usual i enjoyed your posts. this one reminds me of my students when you listen to their conversations. imagine having them in your life 5x a week! :)

never thought sosyaleras ride on a public transportation like that "canned sardines" going to different spots in EDSA. Hay, natiis nila yun ride diyan. katakataka ha?
