My MRT-Pinoy Pao Franchise Adventure

I'm excited being back to work.  Especially that we already have opened our first branch of Pinoy Pao.  I went straight to Guadalupe Mart One to see the new stall.

But just a few days after my first day of work, I encountered a really difficult and funny situation.

I was told to buy stocks from Filtrepreneur.  Some Siopao, Siomai, Ham and Cheese, Siopao Sauce, etc.  My friend told me to estimate what I could carry, since I will be riding the MRT. Despite the warn, I thought, hmmm... I think I can carry everything.  But when I finally bought all of the orders,  it was too late to return some of the orders.  It was good that I was able to borrow a small trolley from my friend.

So the start of my journey towards MRT.  Filtrepreneur was relatively near MRT Santolan station.  But at that moment, it was the farthest walk I've ever took.    I have to literally walk on the road since the sidewalk is not smooth.  After a seemingly endless walk with a very heavy load in both hands, I finally arrived at the MRT station.  I have to ride an elevator, cross at the other side before I was able to ride the MRT.  It was a relieving feeling when I was inside the train.  When suddenly, a lady voice announced,

"Next station... Araneta Cubao... Ang susunod na estasyon... Araneta Cubao..."

Woah!!! It suddenly dawned on me... I was riding in the wrong direction!  I should not have crossed the other side!  My direction was supposedly going South, but I rode the opposite side, which is going to the North!  Oh No!

I just decided to go to the end of the station.  I clumsily went out of the train, and went outside.  I looked for the elevator, since I need to go up and again cross the other side of the station.  I could not find an elevator!  This is not good!!!  I was going to call for desperate help, when, at the corner of my eye, I saw the elevator! Wow!!!

Elevator!!!  Finally!  So I went up, and crossed to the other side.  Then I rode the MRT again.

It was a great relief when I reached Guadalupe Commercial Complex.  I walked inside the mall.  I want to collapse due to the very very heavy load, but I managed to walk further more and  reach our store.

Whew!  That was one tiring adventure! I don't want to do that again!
