The Murderer

I took this photo of the young bitter gourd in my terrace months ago while it started to grow into a vine.  This vegetable is ampalaya in Filipino lingo. This is one of my favorite vegetables. I put two lines of straw to hold it while it stretched out as it grew.  About three months ago it started to bear fruits but smaller than what I expected. The fruits had not turn any bigger when I noticed they started to become yellowish then turned into orange color indicating fruits had ripened. 

The Busy Bee

It rained last Friday night at around seven in the evening. I guess some employees from day time work stayed late at their office for a while. It was to elude from getting wet. I went to the place I used to wait for a ride, one and a half hour earlier. It takes only fifteen minutes from same waiting area to get to the office.

Surprise! Hordes of people waiting to get a ride!!! The line was too long!

I decided not to line up with them and looked for a taxi to take me to work. Double unfortunate events, there was no taxi passing by without heads at the back or beside the driver seat. I sent text message to my team captain I will be late for my training. 1 arrived at the office an hour late. I used to stand up or asked questions to the training officer to keep myself awake. 

Cups of coffee did not work. The training concluded at seven in the morning, Saturday. We enjoyed boxes of pizza and a cake from our colleagues who celebrated their birthday during the training.
