Confessions of a Designer

I just recently discovered Yahoo! Answers and it was quite fun answering questions i know and just making fun of what i don't know( a way to rack up the points)

Heck it's helping out with my thesis too...Not bad...

There was this one question about how does it feel to ride a jeepney during rush hour...
and i answered...one heck of an answer:

Jeepneys are then inspiration for the moon buggies, able to move its way against impossible terrain. The seats are designed for about 8 people on each bench but the driver fits about 9 people each. At night during rush hour, jeepneys can get quite dizzying with their colorful interior lighting of yellow, blue and red. people are all crammed up like sardines but still even in the compact space, the noisy engine and the rough street, people are still able to sleep soundly. As for terminals, there are only select stops that have terminals, these are usually the ones near CBDs or (centrak business districts) or famous schools like the University of the Philippines. During rush hour, lines can reach up to the round of the corner if there is limited jeepneys available. Only in Makati can you find the airconditioned jeep. You're lucky if you happen to catch one of those.There are different looks for jeepneys. Some are really colorful with booming sound systems, while there are others that are very dilapidated with holes on the floor(don't worry you won't fall) but regardless of how they look, they are really fast. i believe that if you put jeepneys drivers against famous race car drivers around the world they would win. no cop can chase them.the noise is bearable, just imagine an old angine that is revving up. atmosphere is generally quite if you are alone(meaning you don't have a companion) there's this genereal rule "never to look anyone in the eye". everyone just tends to look outside the window. it's okay to sit beside strangers only NO NOs are:
1.) those who are sweaty and smelly people
2.) those who are sleeping that tend to lean on your shoulder(duh, i don't know the guy)
3.) women with really long hair and it flies towards your face
4.) pickpockets, slashers(guys who use extra sharp blades to cut through your bag and steal your stuff)
5.) perverts (those who intentionally rub their arms or legs towards your body)The concept of crowding in the philippines is really non existent. mrt, jeepneys, concerts, anything....filipinos just tend to look at the bright side of the situation. we don't care that the jeep is too crowded, we're just thankful we got on a jeep to avoid being late, etc...
