I am that single friend and our mini reunion is giving me so much anxiety.
Post Body

Slash a bit of a vent.

So, I have been "pressured" by my friend to go out today... Together with another and their spouses and children. And I cannot disagree because it has been quite a while. However, last night, I have been very overwhelmed. Maybe because she asked me, "also, bring someone with you." There ain't one.

The both of them are living in Manila and I went back to my hometown and been based there for 6 years. I am only about 2 hours away and I am used to the travel because my family lives in Manila as well. But before my trip, I have experienced insomnia, an upset stomach and I gagged more when I brushed my teeth.

I rode an okay bus but I walked opposite the train station which was not really good for my sore feet. My stored value beep card was expired and dented. I tried buying one but it is not available at the station I was at so I scramble to buy a single journey.

I have the audio on my earphones are on max volume because other sounds made me panic. I didn't realized that items fall out of my pocket and someone just gave it to me. Going down the train I try to find a jeepney to my mom's but I got caught with anxiety again since I am not sure if the transportation integration affected the jeepney route.

If it weren't for the fluffy chickens I saw, I wouldn't have calmed down. Seriously though, how on earth they're there or if such things exists is beyond me but it help me distract a bit. I was relieved when the jeep came.

Now, I am still waiting for the both of them to respond and it's making me a bit impatient since I have work tomorrow at 8am and it's tricky to ride buses back home.

This is the reason why I don't like unplanned and unscheduled events. Not to mention about my other responsibilities back home.
