(an old post i forgot to upload  - March 2008)

so out of a whim and on impulse i agreed to take a side job for the weekend.
Only, i had to pay for my airfare going there. But a weekend at a wedding expo? why not?
i get paid just enough to cover my fare but who the heck cares..i needed to get out of
here. even just for a weekend to forget about some stupid frustration is all thats enough for me.
i couldve been offered to sell balut in singapore for a day and i would've jumped right in.
all because of a senseless heartbreak. a slight almost harmeless one albeit depressing
enough to warrant a tear ot two.

so i packed.

i got to the new airport which is closer to where i live but since im taking public transport i have
to say it could be a bit of a hassle going there. but i got there in time. but how i loved it. its much
much better than the old airport where u had to take a bus going to the aircraft. shocking, i know.
whoever thought of building this new baby must be on some list with einstein on it. Its got escalators
and the good thing about it is that u dont have to go through a gazillion security checks where u had
to take off ur carefully laced up Chuck taylors  to have it x-rayed.

The even better thing about it is that the lounge area is chic with a great view of the runway with... taaadaaa...a Mt. Kanlaon backdrop. How glorious the sight.It makes u contemplate on how lucky you are that youre alive and how terribly your friends and family will miss you when the gedem plane you're about to ride in crashes.

Now the best thing about it..Kuppa. Coffee Station. I had to keep myself from jumping up and down when i saw it..right inside the lounge! At that moment i felt so blessed. Its like the quickening and
i felt like Duncan McLeod of the clan McLeod. Coffee. The one thing i needed at that very
moment and theres nothing like that Kuppa raspberry latte. That and Archie comics. I could die right there.

But i had a job to do and a plane to board. And of the seat rows i had to be in..they put me
on the exit row. THE EXIT ROW!!!  Ive booked more flights for people than u could ever imagine and
i swear i remember full well that the exit row is as sacred as the inner sanctum. I know by heart
that if you book online and you choose seats online the exit row and the bulkhead row are blocked.
blocked. that meant that its for the check in agent to decide carefully which people to seat on those
rows. bulkhead for those needing more legroom and exit row for the able bodied MEN who could
rip the friggin exit door in case of an emergency.

but then i just sighed. there's one word for me: SPINACH.
