This is my experience on my way home today.
Here in the Philippines, we use “jeepney” as our mode of transportation. It is a like an owner type car, only longer and covered on top. It has a long seat where all the passengers will be seated next to each other.
It was almost 12 in the afternoon so the sun is very high and so is the temperature. Since jeepney(s) don’t have air conditioner, everyone is sweating. However, not everyone is sweating all over like the person who seated on my right side. His arms are dripping with sweat and it keeps on hitting my arms. And worst, he raised his left arms to hold on to a steel bar (attached to the roof), to prevent him for tumbling down in case of sudden breaks. I am only 5’2” in height and the person seated next to me is taller.
Can you imagine where his dripping wet armpit would be?
Yes.
His armpit is on top of my shoulders.
And to really make my day worst.
The person seated on my left side is also dripping wet and he raised his right arms to hold on to the steel bar as well.
This means I have two wet armpits on top of my shoulders.
And they are huge. And I mean huge that they are literally squeezing me.
I remember Adam Sandler (on one of his movie) jumped to take a shot on a basketball game, and then his face hit the dripping wet torso of his opponent on his way up and on his way down.
That is exactly how I felt.
I understand that it is hot these past few days; however can they at least take a bath and use a deodorant that can really help lessen their sweating.
Seriously, how much does a deodorant costs nowadays? A deodorant manufacturer now sells their product for 5 pesos per sachet if I am not mistaken.
It is time for me to sleep now.
Hopefully I will have a better experience on my way to the office later.
Till next time.
