Passed by Insular Building today on our way home. It's one of those Makati buildings that have never really changed, not even a facelift of new paint, Jollibee still there. I was reminded of those first few months of working, eight years ago. Took the bus everyday from Sampaloc to Makati via PVP liner. During flood season, Carla and I would be walking that Gil Puyat stretch in knee-deep water to make it to our shift, hand dryers become leg dryers. Fishball was my favorite part of the day. That ambiance of Makati afternoon, everyone is dressed in slacks and collared shirts, buildings as big as your dreams. Makati has giant fishballs for some reason. Also, there are no shortcuts to any place worth going.There are no shortcuts.
