gas from manhattan - 30 dollars
toll gate at the holland tunnel - 6 dollars
not getting lost going back to your hotel - priceless
for everything else, you can pray...
my goodness. it has been days. i've been here in new york for four days now and it has been weird and crazy and did i say weird? not the weird wednesday addams weird. just weird weird.
i'm here with some people and i can say with conviction that we're no nincompoops, although we're not einsteins as well. the thing is, for the fourth straight time, we got lost on the freeway going back to our hotel from manhattan.
let's just say that i have never felt so confused/frustrated/stumped before. no matter what we did, we always end up not getting the right exit to our hotel. i tell you, it was exasperating. my personal stress level was so high that i wanted to snap out and shred our driver into pieces. but i am not going to do that because i am not going to do that. hehehe. and yes, the driver episodes are an altogether different series.
three more freaking days and i bet a buck that we're still gonna get lost in the coming days. i told you it was weird, didn't i?

Hmm, a portable GPS can help... But it didn't help me in SFO, I still got lost (a lot)! See you when you come back!
well, at least am not the only one. i stayed in makati ave. for a week and i couldn't find my way back every night for the 5 days I was there. Every time i left d ofc, i thought of the route but when i'm in the cab, i panic and have mental block. and my ofc was just at The Fort ha.
this one was really, really weird. possibly, the only two times that we got it right was because lady luck was on our side. tonight, the same thing happened again. only difference, we got it right the second time around. dex, gps could have helped, but enterprise carried only 8 portable gps thingies so we ran out of luck and relied on good old maps (and mapquest!)
