Wednesday Walk - Unwinding after a long day at work and enjoying the City lights.

At work, there are times that our teammates will be suddenly unable to work due to some reasons. Like what happened to me last week when my officemate suddenly got sick! Of all the days, it was on the day we had a deadline which left me no choice but to cover up her work. As a result, I extended a few more hours and was even left alone! Our company utility initially hesitated to leave me, but I assured him I would be fine. It was Friday night, and he is a family man, so I didn't want to cause of delay in spending time with her loved ones. I just borrowed the office key from him.
I could even hear the fireworks at seven in the evening and as it was a day before the Chinese new year. As much as I wanted to watch, I could not as I was stuck at work. Though I stood and look out the window for a while and saw these;

Just a glimpse of the fireworks display.

Thankful as I didn't encounter technical errors, and I managed to leave work at past seven.
As I went down the ground floor, I could see only a few people, and the maintenance staff was already starting to clean. Wow, my first to see the floor this shiny, lol.

I was about to take a ride home but suddenly changed my mind. I got a busy and stressful day, plus it's been a while since I haven't gone out. So why not do it today? Need a companion? No problem; I did embrace solitude for years. From standing beside the look waiting for a ride, I started walking to Greenfield as I was planning to spend some time there.
There was a shortcut along San Miguel Avenue could along Lourdes road, but I didn't felt be safer walking. I took the road to SM megamall to check some laptop keyboards.
Last week, Wednesday walk, I know I did share a glimpse of this place, and even in some reflection hunters post yet I didn't see that it was this colorful at night.

It was just a few walks away from work! Thus, since the world turned upside down, I was always in a hurry to go home. I need to catch up some time with my husband before his work starts or try my best to avoid crowded places.

Since I am alone, no one is bugging me if I suddenly stop to take some photos or whatever catches my attention. Taking time while walking, watching some people in a rush to go home, young children trying to sell merchandise, group of friends laughing and teasing each other while walking made me think; FINALLY, everything was back to NORMAL.

Approaching at the park, I could see some with their friends, recording dance for tiktok maybe, just sitting on the grasses, walking with their dogs or preparing for an out of town travel or hike.

Yes, I passed by too in this Chillas Bar and Grill and was so tempted to drop by. Thus, I am alone and I don't think so it would be fun drinking alone! Yes, eating I often do that BUT not in drinking!
Mot of the time, we are drinking to relax and released those emotions, that is why for me I prefer having someone to talk. NO, not the bottle or cans of beer!

Just few more walks, and I finally reached the open alfresco dining at Greenfield. I remember posting about this place before thus it was daytime. No lights which gives vibrant vibes! Well, that is somehow the good thing staying in the city. Enjoying the lights, city lights!.

And that ends my walk as I sit in one table in there, enjoying the food I bought while listening to the music played by the DJ.

Have a great day this is my entry in Sir @tattoodjay Wednesday walk in collaboration with @elizacheng in make me smile. Hope I made you 😊.
