Why I hate big schools... its students and whoever picks them up

[gorbeh]

ako sa UP nag-aaral ngayon. hehehe di kami pabigat masyado sa trapik. mga taga-ateneo ang nagpapatrapik sa katipunan kaya sinasadya ko minsan na past 9pm na lang ako uuwi para iwas sa trapik.

[GlennSter]

ang miriam ba hindi nagpapatrapik sa katipunan?

ang kostka hindi?

ang miriam hindi?

ang up hindi?

ang mga taga makati hindi?

ang mga taga white plains hindi???

come on...think!!!

kahat tayo ay factor sa traffic situation ngayon...taga up ka pa naman.

9pm?thats too late for you my child.5pm onwards wala nang traffic sa katipunan.traffic lang jan USUALLY,4-5pm.pag labasan ng grade school.

[luwe]

grabe talaga ang trapik sa katipunan lalo na kung galing ka sa marcos highway at maraming pumapasok sa isang gate ng ateneo.

sa totoo lang sa mga gate ng ateneo grabe ang trapik e. kahit sabihin mo pang may trapik sa iba basta sa katipunan ateneo ang pinaka trapik. kaya nga yung utol ko pinapatawid ko na lang ng katipunan para hindi na ako makisawsaw sa trapik na yan kapag uuwi na siya.

kaya glennster wag sana magalit agad, moderator ka pa naman. kakaasar kasi marinig yung tipong hirit na "taga up ka pa naman"

[GlennSter]

hindi ako asar..and dont tell me na moderator pa naman ako..kasi first and foremost, im also a poster.

wala naman akong sinabi na hindi ateneo eh.sinabi ko na LAHAT.at yes..sobrang traffic sa admu....

tip ko lang sa inyo:avoid passing by that area ng 330-5pm.

pucha, I remember the time na ginagawa pa lang ang C5 Flyover sa Katipunan around 9-10 yrs. ago... yun ang grabeng traffic!

dehins gumagalaw!!

To be honest, the reason why Ateneo causes more traffic usually is because they are nearer to a main intersection (Aurora), a lot of their "sundo" blocks the road opposite of the school where most of the establishments are. In Miriam, halos wala naman tambayan sa tapat, in addition, I see a lot less students driving cars there than in Ateneo, of course, you must factor in how many people are in Ateneo over Miriam.

I used to live in Fairview (before you most under 21yo are born) and ever since mas madami talaga traffic (meaning, cars going in and out) ADMU than UP or Miriam.

That's a logical fact.

talaga totoo yan pare. years back, my Dad would take me to Ateneo at 6:30 in the morning para lang makaiwas sa Traffic.. then for a time, tumira pa ako sa Laguna for two years but still adamant parents ko na pumasok pa rin ako sa Ateneo. So, I wake up at 4:15AM lleave the house by 5:30 in order to get to Ateneo by 7:00. Sheesh... looking back at it, napapa-iling na lang ako...

[ILuvDetailing]

I used to wake up at 5:30am in the morning so that I could reach school in time at around 7am. Studied at Hope before and I live in Paranaque, that time wala pang Diosdado Macapagal and we had to pass by Coastal Road and sobrang traffic sa coastal road at that time pag dating ng mga 6:30am. And when I reach school I just walk pag inabutan na ako ng traffic, and didn'nt mind it, a little "fresh" air wouldn't hurt.

comment lang:

sa singalong sa manila area, may public school. pag labasan ng estudyante, isinasara ang kalye. as in walang kotse ang nakakadaan. tapos pila ang mga jeepney at pedicab. and this singalong street is major artery towards quirino avenue.

i guess basically, rich or poor, parents will always want to protect their children no matter the cost and utilizing all resources available

yesterday,march 9 2005,3:57pm,la salle green hills

[van_wilder]

no offense taken... i think my sisters are independent... pero talagang ayaw ng mom ko eh... hindi naman daw bawal yun...

[mazdamazda]

pasukan na naman...

sheesh... traffic sa poveda kapag umaga... tanghali... hapon!

sa lourdes manda ganun din... sheesh! yung iba sa gitna ng kalye nagbababa - kailangan bang sa tapat ng gate bumaba? yung iba naman ay mag park along san miguel ave tapos ihahatid pa yung anak sa gate!

parang masyado naman OA and overprotective ang mga ibang magulang...

[kimpOy]

well you will know if you become a parent M2...
kung pwedeng lagyan ng red carpet lalagyan ko eh he..he

pero still dapat considerate din ang ibang nagsusundo or naghahatid, since pare-pareho gusto makapunta or nakauwi agad right...

[mazdamazda]

sabagay...

commute or service lang kasi ako noon... sourgraping lang siguro at hindi hatid sundo. :lol:

but still... lalo na sa la salle gh! sa gitna na ng daan nakaparada!

better yet... the schools should provide an ample drop off point for their students... yung pwedeng mag drive-in and drop-off safely yung mga kids.

[GlennSter]

dapat talaga luwagan narin mga daanan..wala na akong makitang solusyon sa ganyan.

sa katipunan u turn dito sarado kalye doon..one way..lahat ginawa na...pero traffic parin!

I'm a proud alumnus of LSGH and yes I admit that the school creates horrendous traffic every schoolday. It looks like it has become an Ortigas Ave. tradition everytime school's open... I remember the days when La Salle didn't have the inner driveways and the traffic reached what is now ADB. To top it all, the MRT and the flyovers weren't in existence yet...

Then I studied in DLSU... I used to laugh at myself whenever I'm aboard a PUJ during the critical 1600H dismissal time of most freshmen... The jeepney drivers curse to high heavens like: "Put#####ang La Salle 'to. Bakit ba mag jeep na lang sila para mabawasan ang traffic sa harap nila? Palibhasa'y puro anak ng mga malalaking tao ang nag-aaral... PWE!!!!"

Fast forward to 2006, now my son's 2nd grade in LSGH. I just smile whenever I encounter the Ortigas traffic each and every schoolday, be it in the morning or during dismissal...

yan nga ang bad trip sa La Salle, kelan ba nila aayusin yan sa Ortigas pati sa kabila side (Meralco side) apektado. hirap lumabas ng Edsa minsan pag minalas malas pa eh apektado hanggang MC depot yun only entrance from Ortigas to Ortigas center.

kelangan ba mag-suffer lahat para sa mga exclusive schoolers na yan!!

kung squatters nire-relocate para umayos ang public roads, dapat mga sagabal na schools din kung wala sila ma-i-provide na infrastructure sa loading/unloading nila.

isa pa yan DLSU Taft, liit na nga ng roads taft, pinasisikip pa!

Pano naman kaming hindi nag-aral sa mga school na iyan? Ngingiti na din lang kami kapag traffic? Ngaks.

As I've previously posted, hinahatid din naman ako nung bata pa ko. Pero hindi ko naman pinapayagan yung driver na ibalagbag na lang sa daan yung sasakyan. Nakakahiya naman sa ibang road users. Kapag parents ko naghahatid sakin, napagtataasan na ko ng boses kapag mabagal akong bumaba ng sasakyan (hindi pa nakaayos gamit, etc.).

At present, when my lil sis goes home from school (elementary siya, big age gap kami), the vehicle/s will not even touch the road fronting the school. Ipapark na lang a few streets away where it won't disturb traffic. May paa naman ang kapatid ko, marunong yun maglakad.

Kapag umaga naman, maaga siyang hinahatid habang wala pang traffic sa area. Marami lang sigurong mga 'sheltered' children sa mundo ngayon. hehehe.

grabe yan traffic na yan sa LSGH. kahit hindi pasukan or some event making use of thier gym or whatever, grabe ang traffic. minsan nagiging parking lot yun daan(literally) hanggang GH Shopping mall... siguro naman with financial backing of the school they afford to put up some sort of solution like an elevated parking lot or put up a building or two within their campus para lang maging waiting area ng mga dudungs at indays
