Election and voting time has come again. It was so fast that I've just voted for presidency last 2016 and now for Baranggay election. So I decided to go back home again to vote and visit my hometown in Mangaldan, Pangasinan. It was a very hot day when I leave my apartment in Quezon City at 12:00pm Philippine Time.

My first location is in Victory Liner in Cubao Quezon City. So I ride a tricyle from my apartment to Central Avenue corner Commonwealth Avenue Quezon City and then I ride a bus going to Cubao. When I arrived at the terminal, I was surprice, there is a lot of people buying travel tikets so I also fall in line to buy a tiket around 12:30 pm. I've got my ticket at 1:56pm and board on bus at 2:10pm.

The bus departure was at 2:15pm so I was lucky to get board before the bus goes out. Like what I always do when I make a travel, after I past on Philippine Arena in Bocaoe Bulacan, I get my phone that is just newly bought by my friend, I listen to music while enjoying places that were passing.I take a shot of some places we pass on.

We arrived in Dau, Pampanga at 3:47pm and take a 5minutes bus stop. The bus was so full and some of the passengers were standing. I didnt notice it but I experience that too last 2015. After Dau, Pampanga. The next destination of the bus is in Tarlac Terminal. I arrived there at 5:20pm and that time, I've just eat my lunch. I'm so hungry because I didnt take my lunch since I depart from home. The bus stop on tarlac has 15minutes break so I buy a lot of foods to eat.

After eating, the next destination is Dagupan City. I arrived there at 8:06pm. So from Cubao to Dagupan City, almost 8hours bus trip. A very tired day but Dagupan City is the last destination of the bus. But my hometown wasnt reach yet. I walk from Perez Blvd in Dagupan City to AB.Fernandez Avenue to get a jeep going to Mangaldan, Pangasinan. From Dagupan City to Mangaldan, Pangasinan, it takes 15 to 20 minutes ride without a traffic.

In Mangaldan, Pangasinan, I stop on CSI and walk towards our home. I arrived home at 8:44pm so the total time I spend was more than 8hours. I was to tired that time so I eat a lot because on the next day will be voting day. I sleep from 11pm to 7am in the morning.

In the morning, I prepare some ID to vote. I went early to voting precints together with my father. I assist my father in voting because he cant already read/see the voting ballots. After I we voted, we went back home to eat our breakfast. We finished voting in just less than 10 minutes. That was very fast because the voting process is just written and not shadings like in presidentiables.
