ADVENTURE! (continuation)

Part 3 (The Adventure Itself)

Okay, when LA finished eating his meal, we decided to go to Araneta to buy tickets for the UST vs UP game (Aug. 20) since I wasn't able to buy some earlier. We crossed the street and we were already in front of Benilde. I was hoping to see Dino but I didn't.. poor me. We rode the LRT-1 going to D. Jose station. We had to ride different cabs since the LRT was full so I rode the cab for the females. When we arrived at the D. Jose station, we walked for a few minutes until we finally reached LRT-2 Recto station. I had the chance to sit down, yipeeee! Oh and this time, we rode the same cab since there wasn't a seperate one for females. After 7 stations, we arrived at the Araneta Center-Cubao station. I think it was his first time in Gateway, haha. So there, we went to The Big Dome and I bought 3 Upper Box-A tickets. We were ready to go home, the question is... how? HAHA. He suggested to just retrace our steps but instead of going down the Vito Cruz station (near DLSU), we would go down the Gil Puyat station then ride a bus going to Pacita. That was too tiring for me so I thought of another way to go home. I remembered Kyle telling me that he rode a bus at Cubao to go home so we asked where we could find a bus terminal going to Laguna. A guard told us that the terminal was near Ali Mall. We walked for a long time, we didn't know where Ali Mall was. On our way of looking for Ali Mall, we even saw SM Cubao. Haha! When we finally saw the terminal, LA asked "Pwede bang mag-cr muna tayo?" I had no choice so we went inside a mall (I don't know which mall XD) to look for the restrooms. After that, we went back to the terminal and realized that the buses were going to Bicol, Batangas, and other provinces. CRAAAAAZY!! I was so tired of walking already. Good thing I had another plan left. I suggested we just ride the MRT-3 at the Farmer's Plaza then go down at the Ayala station and ride an FX there going to Pacita (via Southwoods exit). He hesitated at first since riding the FX is more expensive than riding the bus but he agreed eventually. We rode different cabs again since there were separate cabs for females. Upon reaching the Ayala stataion, we went directly to the FX terminal. When we were already at the FX terminal, he saw a bus going to Pacita. We immediately walked fast towards the bus then rode it. Finally! We went down at Ministop (pacita) and bought food. After that, we crossed the street and went inside Salon 28 since my mom was there. He then went home and I waited for my mom to be finished. After an hour of waiting... HOME AT LAST! :)
