Comfort zones are meant to be expanded. Otherwise, suffer mental atrophy.
I’ve tasted a life wasted, I’m never going back again.

You gotta love ABC ch.5 and MMDA’s collaboration in providing mobile service to people on the road for real time traffic updates. They are accurate and very useful in navigating the major streets of EDSA, C-5, Roxas blvd, España and Quezon Avenue til Commonwealth.
Tita Vicky
