Womanhood and Everything in Between

Yes, I've been commuting to and from work since forever. I had my fair share of good memories on board a bus or any PUVs and an equal numbers of misfortunes, too. And then I heard a good news that provincial buses were to unload and load passengers at the bus terminal that they will open at the Coastal Mall. I was like, "WTF". I have translated my frustration into words and now is still sitting in my draft since the inaugural of the terminal at the Coastal Mall.
