I was there earlier, sobrang pagod. Imagine standing for more than 6 hours depending what time you arrived, walked, trekked, lined up and endured a lot of pushing/shoving. Plus drenched in rain, some even braved the rain without any rain gear. We're exhausted after the 2 hour mass then we have to walk back to Vito Cruz again, imagine that. On a consolation, we were able to glipse the Pope again when he got back to Nunciature in Quirino.
Pinoys will never do away with pushing just to get them in front or have the best seat/view. Yung aleng matatanda pa ang nangunguna. Ok lang sana kung nakatayo ng matagal pero pag may tumutulak pa mas lalong nakakapagod. And daming nangailangan ng medical care dahil sa pagkahilo o nahimatay.
Mas kawawa yung police trainees, wala pa daw kain yung mga yun tapos naka t-shirt lang ng puti na pinapaulanan. Some had to give their food and leftover bread so we gave ours too.
But as usual, Pinoys balik sa dating ugali. Tsk tsk
