B - Bataan, Bimmer, Busy

Its been a really tiring but productive week starting when I went up to Baguio for my Mom's birthday last weekend. Saturday was wasted because I had to stay home since I wasn't feeling well. Waf also came up that weekend, so Sunday was a regular family day. It was nice to have everybody home again. Monday turned out to be a put-the-bimmer-back-together day. sonny had ordered several stuff to put into the 318i and we worked on it the whole day. By midnight, the bimmer was up and running and ready for its trip to a new home, with me. I left Baguio at midnight driving my new toy, a 1984 BMW 318i.

The upcoming week was super hectic. I was in the office from 8am to 12mn for most of the week It all paid off though, by late Friday night (or was it Saturday morning?) the program was bug free and the system was ready to run the critical lots to help pull up quarter end revenue.

Saturday was a blessing, I finally got to wake up kinda late, catching up on sleep which I badly needed. The afternoon was dedicated to a couple of outstanding chores. I got a message on Sunday morning, Harold and Mel were driving to Bataan to pick Jet up. So before lunch we got in Mel's car and drove off to Bataan. Along the NLEX we witnessed a really bad accident, a jeep swerved right to change lanes and for some reason immediately swerved back and suddenly toppled over. It went through a few full rotations before finally landing on the grassy island in the middle of the expressway. As it turned and tumbled you could see the people desperately holding on, trying not to fly out of the jeep. When it finally stopped tumbling, people started crawling out of the vehicle. We couldn't stop for it fearing suddenly stopping will cause a pile up.It ws a chilling sight.

We got home around 10pm, I hit the sack early since tomorrow was another workday.
