No wonder the officeboys take a bath at noon. No wonder the apartment guards hang out at the airconditioned lobby more often now. No wonder the motorcyclists drive so fast. They cant stand the humidity and the heat. But despite all that, they are so... patient and happy.
Finished my day 1 successfuly, and wow, was I thirsty and hot the whole day.
Can you imagine an average blue-collar worker in Makati fighting the traffic along edsa with an empty stomach at 6pm? I wouldnt dare compare him to a carpenter fasting and on his motorcycle stuck in a high-noon Jakarta highway (Jakarta is known for the worst traffic jams). It would be comparing a wild bear to a saint.
Imagine if Filipinos could somehow emulate this phenomenon of Fasting Season. That would be one month of peace. That would be one sight to behold...
on to Day 2
