I’ve learned so much these couple of days.
How to hold it when I’m hurt, when to say the right things, but these times I appreciate the people around me who to try to be extra compassionate when I’m being difficult.
Truly is a different kind of death when it’s by kindness.
The difference between ordinary and extraordinary is that little “extra”.
Lesson: People grow if there’s an unselfish extra mile in the little things. Let nothing, not even title, get into your head.
Happy Monday!
WHY DOESN’T MANILA HAVE A MIDNIGHT TRAIN? 🚃
A post by a social media user about the schedules of trains in Metro Manila ignited a discussion online.
“You know what really doesn’t make sense here in Metro Manila? How the last rides of trains are between 8:30 to 10:30 PM,” X (formerly Twitter) user Karen Sison wrote.
Sison added that Metro Manila, which she said is a “city with so many call centers and night shift jobs,” has a range of last train schedules that “is way too early.”
One X user quipped: “Feeling ko talaga, totoo ito kaya hindi 24 hours ang operation ng MRT/LRT,” referring to a cult-favorite ‘Shake Rattle & Roll’ episode about trains.
“By comparison, other Asian systems like Bangkok's, Hong Kong's, Jakarta's, Kuala Lumpur's, or Singapore's close at either just a little before midnight or later daily,” another user commented.
According to the Light Rail Manila Corporation, which runs LRT-1, its weekday operations start at 4:30 a.m. at both Baclaran and Roosevelt stations. Meanwhile, the last train leaves the Baclaran Station at 10 p.m. and Roosevelt Station at 10:15 p.m.
Meanwhile, the weekday operating hours of LRT-2, according to the Light Rail Transit Authority, start at 5 a.m. at both Antipolo and Recto stations. Meanwhile, the last train leaves at the Antipolo Station at 9 p.m. and Recto Station at 9:30 pm.
For MRT-3, the first train leaves North Avenue Station at 4:36 am and its last trip is 9:30 p.m. On the other hand, the first train leaves Taft Avenue Station at 5:18 a.m. and the last trip is at 10:11 p.m.
Social media users seemed to agree that train schedules in Metro Manila should be adjusted to align with the Filipino way of life. | via https://t.co/WPGSeTgU4D Marwin Elao
Watching Korina Sanchez interview The Pangilinans is such a turn off. I wonder how this woman became a news anchor with all the inappropriate comments she throws
