Van vs Jeepney


This is my new means of public transpo in the morning.
  • Fare is 50 Php, including a jeepney ride to where I'm supposed to ride the van.
  • I'd be dropped off in front of our building. 
  • No more long walks for me. 
  • It can accomodate 16 passengers excluding the driver.
  • Airconditioned. 
  • Fast and doesnt have to stop at every corner. 
  • The driver needs not to pick up passengers

    STILL...

    Nothing beats the experience of riding a PUJ, be it early in the morning or sometime in the evening.
  • Fare is fair, three jeepney rides going to work costs 29 Php.
  • I can feel the somewhat fresh morning breeze.
  • Can accomodate up to 22 passengers who can't afford the almost 50 Php fare.
  • It's fun to see people who are hurrying to catch the jeepney that is about to leave. 
  • You can mingle with people from all walks of life. 
  • It's not suffocating. 
  • You can see where you're going. 
  • There are distractions such as other PUVs, but what heck, distractions are fine as long as they don't hurt me. 
  • Sometimes annoying because drivers often stop at every corner, every possible passenger they can see, even those who are not hailing a ride. 
  • It's only in the PUV that you can practice your inner psychoanalyst characteristics. 
  • It's the only ride wherein you can be annoyed, excited, happy and whatever-emotion-that-is-possible in one seating.
  • Lastly, a natural, electric-free hairblower/hairdryer!
