no pain no gain

if that's true, then the gain should be directly proportional to the pain.right? in that case, i have a whole lot to gain! my feet have been screaming bloody murder for a couple of hours now because of my romp through makati's business area.what was i thinking wearing those boots?! by 12:30pm i could already feel every stone, line, and crack in the pavement. by 2pm i was already taking small limping steps. again, what was i thinking?! i tried to get a cab home but every cab i flagged down refused because it was too far away daw and the price that they were asking for didn't go below 300 bucks! WTF! and as if that was not enough, when i rode the MRT on the way home i was standing in front of a row of men sitting down. there i was swaying in front of them (err, that sounds....nevermind) as i tried to hold on to that loop thingy that hangs from the bar. i was trying to stare them down, so that one of them might be kind enough to offer their seat. not one looked at me. where are all the gentlemen? are they extinct?! the only reason i was able to sit down was because one of them got off at a stop. so with a sarcastic "thank you" i sat.when i got to cubao, i limped over to the department store and took the first pair of slippers that i saw. tore off my boots and headed over to the cashier. by this time i no longer cared how i looked or what people thought.
so what prompted this little trip? well i've been peppering my cv here and there....coz i'm bored and broke....which isn't all that fun.
