Manic Monday

Hi guys,

Hope you guys had a decent Monday :)).

I woke up today with this positive feeling and this urge to get to work ...Yeah, right! My urge was so big that I actually turned my alarm off, and woke up half an hour later. Puffy face: checked! Clothes that I'd randomly pull out of the closet : checked! It seemed like the recipe for a perfect day...

I finally got to the tram station. The first tram reached the bus stop. Although it was extremely crowded, I tried to get on. Couldn't! I thought to myself: "If at first you don't succeed...". So I tried again with the second tram...Failure! There were so many people inside one tiny tram, that I seriously felt like taking a photo and send it to those Guinness World Records dudes...

But, since good things come to those who wait, I finally got on the third tram. Now I was officially going to be late for work...Bummer!

By now, you might think this is a sad story, but it actually isn't. I got to work, all upset and frustrated over my public transportation adventure and guess what brightened my day?!? A text message from my 2 co-workers, who enjoy the comfort of their personal car while coming to work every day, saying they were going to be late as they were caught in this crazy traffic jam...Mu ha ha ha! I gently laid back in my chair, put my feet on the desk, relaxed, smelled the fresh coffee in my cup and whispered..."It was all worth it, after all!"

In case you didn't notice, this post was meant to be an ode to public transport. I am grateful it brought me to work a lot earlier than my co-workers. And I am also forever grateful to the packed trams, as there is no space for ticket inspectors to get on. Double win!

I wish you all a perfect week!

Hugs,

Mamalina

  1. I adore the colors of this outfit together, plus the daintiness that always accompanies your looks, you look beautiful!

    And God, I used to hate the mornings when I had to take the bus to get to work. Between them being so overcrowded and having people starring at me for actually trying to get on the bus, like I was some sort of intruder, stealing off their space ... the feeling was incomparable ^^ Suffice to say I don't miss it!

    Have a happy rest of the week!

  9. Acesta este practic unul din "avantajele" de a locui în capitală, aşa-i? Timp irosit cu blocajele din trafic. Cred că acesta este unul din motivele pentru care m-aş gândi de două ori înainte să mă mut în Bucureşti.
