MRT Snatchers

Hey Guys...

My first story is a very interesting one.

I was riding the MRT and I have my cellphone with me. It is a barbaric one, but still a good one. It might be a predecessor of Nokia 3210. My vision in life is to just text and call. I don't need smartphones nor IPhones. I don't need special kind of "apps" in order to live a sustainable life. Again, I'm contented to just text and call.

After all those descriptions, I was still riding the MRT while my barbaric cellphone is in my right side pocket. I know what you're thinking now - when will the snatching happen? Am I right? Of course! So it will happen on the next two sentences. The train stopped in MRT Guadalupe station and a lot of bumping happened. I was bumped a little, then the door close, and my cellphone was gone.

So my cellphone was snatched. For a minute and 5, I felt calm not because my cellphone is barbaric, but because I was so much thinking of a lot of things that night because I was so stressed after work. Then, I called my Mom. My mom said "hello" and I said "hello" too. By the way, you might be wondering how I was able to call my Mom. I actually stopped in Shaw Blvd. station and there was a pay phone there worth 5 pesos. Do I really need to tell everything?

Anyway, I told my mom that my cellphone was snatched. Damn, that's the time I felt bad! Very bad. The text messages are there. The songs that I made are there (yes, I create songs too). The possible Internet sensation ideas are there (including this blog) and so I felt bad. I felt bad I realized why do I need to put all my ideas in my cellphone?

I am the kind that when I get to generate one idea, I used to write it immediately in my cellphone. So, I lost a lot of ideas, because I used to have a lot of ideas. Now, I am feeling bad again. I wanna cry like huhuhuhu. I hope you're not crying over there as well.

So moral of the story - do not put your ideas on your phone especially when you are commuting a lot in Metro Manila. Hey, are you expecting another moral of the story? Actually, there's another one - do not ride the MRT when you don't have a mouse trap inside your pocket. It's a very helpful device that you can use. I hope the next snatcher will attempt to snatch my cellphone again, because a mouse trap with with 1 inch sharp blades will be waiting for that snatcher.

See you again guys in my next post.
