I had my first Light Rail Transit (LRT) ride today. 🙂 Marc and I had to go to C.M. Recto for the small business my sister and I are putting up, and the train is faster and more economical than going by car.
I won’t exactly call this my first train ride though. I’ve ridden the Metro Railway Transit (MRT) going from Santolan to Makati and back during my 6-month stint as a call center girl. I just never had any reason to ride the LRT until today.
I was like a little girl during the ride going to Recto. Marc even got annoyed with me, saying that I looked silly and I’m embarrassing myself to the other passengers. Well, to hell with them 😀 I actually like the LRT better than the MRT. It’s wider, has more space for people to move around. Good thing too because hopefully, I’ll be needing to ride the LRT at least once or twice a month (that would mean my sister and I are doing well in our business! :D).
Anyway, here’s a little photo for the Holy Week:
I took this photo months ago, but never had an opportunity to post it. I think this Holy Week is the best time to do that.

do you think so???? naku pag may pasukan.. MASIKIP DYAN! mas masikip kaysa sa MRT! Tell you… I rode LRT since I was a little girl kasi dyan ako sa C.M Recto ako nagaaral before…naku! nagkataon na walang pasok ngayon!
yeah I agree with you Lily… and i think you’re talking about the LRT 2, and the LRT is the one which is smaller than the MRT and the LRT 2, maasar ka at maiirita pag yan ang nasakyan mo… ang sikip na maiinit pa… anyway ganyan din ang feeling ko nung first ride ko dyan sa LRT2, isa lang ang napansin ko, mabagal ang tagbo niya… and the ticket machine nakakatuwa… hehe… parang mangangain ng buhay… 😀
Haha, I was like that during my first MRT ride. I’ve never ridden the LRT though. They also seggregate women and the men, right?
LILY: Well, maybe so. Madali naman iwasan ang rush hour. I can kill time sa Gateway.
REY: HUY!!! Nagparamdam ka! Yep, I’m talking about LRT2.
LAUREN: I’m not sure… Do they? Marc and I were able to stay in the same place. Nobody told us to separate 😛
Gail: yeah!!! hehe… toxic na masyado ang course ko… minsan na lang ngayon nakakapag-online… as of now having my OJT at PAL-Makati… Uy! sa wakas nabihisan mo na blog mo, I’m getting tired looking with the default theme of wordpress… ciao! keep it up!
