So much work to do. I need to finish all these before we leave the house for Mikee’s class. I won’t be bringing the laptop to the parties. It would defy my purpose, to have fun that is. Lately, I have been having migraines. I’m not sure if it’s prolonged exposure to my laptop or if I need to have my eyes checked. I was planning to buy an Oakley to have it reimbursed for our optical benefits but it looks like I’ll be buying prescription contact lenses instead. Tsk, tsk. I wonder if I can opt to buy it in brown or green. Hihihi.

An officemate forwarded an email cautioning about a taxi modus operandi happening in EDSA. I actually have read about a similar incident before. Both women says the taxi driver asked the passenger to move a bit to one side because the tire on the other side was almost flat. And the taxi was running too slow. Then two waiting men will suddenly ride the taxi cab to do a hold-up, driving to several ATMs till they get all the money they could. One woman said it happened to her on a late night while the other said it happened to her at noon!

I was so alarmed because as you know, I ride taxi when I go to the office. (I either take the MRT to go home or hubby fetches me.) So I’m thinking what I should do if the taxi driver starts telling me to move a bit to one side. Should I just ask him to stop at a place with enough outdoor lighting and drop off from there? But the question is, would he stop? It was said that the doors are child-locked. Well, in that case, the best thing to do is upon riding a cab, test the doors first if you can open it from inside. If not, I’ll probably pretend to have forgotten something.

Take precaution. This could be rampant nowadays especially it’s just two months before Christmastime.
