I Guess I Love Queueing.
It's the first week of the month again, which means I have to replenish the budget in my wallet for my daily expenses. I do this twice in a month, so I wouldn't be overwhelmed of doing transactions that has higher fees when you cash out to third party outlets. Way to greet my coins.ph e-wallet early in the morning but it greets me with a bad news instead.
I'm having trouble receiving an OTP as a confirmation for transaction. At first, I thought it might just having problems with that Express Padala Center and I tried another center but the problem was still the same. Then, I tried to transfer it to another e-wallet, but the problem also is still the same. I still can't receive an OTP code. I keep on requesting the code but it still doesn't work.
I asked my online friends if they have spare cash but they don't also have and I can't ask from anyone in real life here. Since I have to claim the money on Palawan Pawnshop at the downtown for the payment of my credit card, the only choice I have left is to withdraw from my savings in my bank.
I spent here queueing for an hour just to claim the money that is sent to me by my friend. It is her payment for the phone that I purchased for her using my credit card. Her brothers are also waiting for me in the corner since she include the money that is for them in her payment. After an hour, I finally claimed it and I gave the shares to her brothers.
We split ways since they're going and I'm going to the bank since I still to pay the credit card and withdraw.
Another long line greeted me when I arrived. I spent queueing here for two hours. I finally got relieved when I stepped inside and faced the teller but another problem has occurred. They can't process my withdrawal because their branches in Bacolod hasn't all synced yet. They said that I have to wait until my bank change my account number so that I can withdraw and deposit at any branch nationwide.
I just paid for my credit bills and went outside empty-handed and hungry. I have to walk to another street in the rain just so I can get to another branch. Good thing, it's not that far and the branch doesn't have a lot of customers when I came in. I don't have to queue again for two hours and I was done within a few minutes.
I'm super hungry as I got it all done at about 3 pm already. I just went inside the nearest fast food chain that I saw to order and eat. I feel like fainting at any moment if I don't eat before I go home. That was a tiring day and stressful day. Adulting really sucks. I feel like going back to a kid where I wouldn't stress myself over something like this and will just ask my parents to give me money.
Well, it's a lesson learned also to me. I shouldn't wait for my budget to be drained before I would withdraw next time.
Anyway, thanks for reading!!!
