Well, on Wednesday night, I've been putting in my Facebook status that I was preparing for what could be an enigmatic Thursday... It actually didn't turn out that way as I just had an ok Thursday.
I had to go to DFA to renew my license personally, since renewing it thru an agency will take much longer than it should be as I need my passport to be renew in 2 1/2 weeks time. I was surprised that it was not the other way around. Anyway, I was there at 6am...
...To my surprise, at the Roxas-Libertad corner, there was a DFA personnel approached me and looked at my requirements, in which I was overwhelmed that they were checking it that far, then every 10 meters there were guides until I reached the gate, then the basketball court, where step 1 will be executed. At 6:08 am, I was the 1,387th person to apply/renew a passport... Wow!
At 6:30, the line starts to move, I was like in Singapore, meaning there were instructions along the way... which is very good by the way, there were seats all the time as well. As the steps gone farther, the windows were getting more & more, so the steps were getting faster! At 8:30, I was done with the whole thing! Had to go back after 7 working days for my new passport! =)
For the 1st time in ages, I was satisfied with a government office.
Not much happened the rest of the day, except that my next role in the company was announced, which is quite something for me. Though it happened at the tail-end of a long meeting (rather than it's usual spot at the 1/3 mark of a meeting).
It was more of anti-climactic than enigmatic, but I was ecstatic!
