hay naku, i've lived in that area my whole life. i always tell my friends that ortigas ave ext is the traffic capital of the phils. my friends and officemates often think na b.s. when i tell them how traffic is sa ortigas ave.

pag wala ako sa mood magexcercise sa umaga, umaalis ako 5:15 am para makaiwas sa traffic kasi after that, medyo may build up na --and my colleagues here in the office won't believe me. kaya i prefer leaving 3:00am para mag-cycling muna and then head for the office after taking a shower at ultra, and then i leave the office mga 2 or 3pm para iwas traffic din.

just mid november naghukay ang mwss jan sa may riverside hanggang de castro. binalik nga nila yung asphalt pero half-assed naman yung pag-gawa. mas masagwa pa ang lubak ngayon kesa nung tag-ulan.

pero this is still much better than when it used to take 3 hours from crossing, mandaluyong to rosario in pasig! i think that was in the early 90s nung hinukay yung buong ortigas ave ext from junction to lifehomes hehe.
