交通組織（こうつうそしき）のパリで紙のチケットを廃止（はいし）することを発表（はっぴょう）しました。7月11日にパリの交通組織は２０１９からNavigoカードを使わないといけない。
三つの理由（りゆう）をあげました。まず、そのチケットは無くしやすいです。（なくしややすい）次に時々じきストライプは問題（もんだい）があります。最後にある人々はどこでも適当にチケットを捨てる（すてる）ので、パリの通りは汚い（きたない）です。
IDFMという交通組織によると紙のチケットは時間と労力（ろうりょく）のムダだと言いました。
紙のチケットは１１６年前に使われ始めました。
この決断（けつだん）は地球（ちきゅう）にいいです。東京は同じことをするのだろうかと思います。

Birthday month 30-day writing challenge: Day 10...
If you could only live off of one food and one beverage for the rest of your days, what would they be?
Above is the question for today’s writing challenge.
It may appear to be a difficult question to answer. One, I love to eat. That explains the reason why I weighed almost 200 lbs and had to wear size 38” pants at one point in my life. Two, my Mom’s side hails from Pampanga, a province known for sinfully delicious dishes. Haha! Growing up, I’ve always enjoyed family gatherings with relatives from my Mom’s side because it is always guaranteed to be a feast!
Going back to the question, I think the one food I can live off of is my Mom’s chicken and pork adobo. I am not sure how she does it but her adobo really is my fave. When she visited Singapore last year, I asked her to prep adobo which I brought with me to the office and shared with two Singaporean colleagues. They both loved it! (Either that or they were being polite! Haha!) In any case, I’ve tried to copy her adobo but sadly, I am a failure. Haha!
As for a drink, that’s also easy. Coke Zero. Bad for the health, I know. But if I were to die tomorrow and I had one last drink, it would be Coke Zero. Hehe!

Birthday month 30-day writing challenge: Day 9...
The writing challenge for today is to write about pet peeves.
It's nothing really new since the post a few days ago was very much similar.
My number one pet peeve I guess is latecomers. I really get annoyed with late people. Haha! I think that my punctuality goes back to the days when I was an altar boy. We were required to be at the church 15-20 minutes before the Mass. By doing so, we are able to check that everything that’s needed are there. That 15-minutes before the Mass was something I brought with me til now. Haha!
I noticed though that I’m becoming more impatient. When I was in uni, I could wait for people who are late for an hour or even more. Now that I’m nearing my midlife, my fuse is getting shorter with latecomers. Most recently, after being made to wait for 45 minutes, I sent a text message to the people I was supposed to meet up with that I was going home. Lol! 45 minutes waiting time was my max. Tbh, I felt good that I went ahead and didn’t wait. Haha!
That’s my major pet peeve, I guess.
Some other major pet peeves:
- people who have no compassion/concern for others
- people who don’t know how to say thank you
- churchgoers who chat loudly before the Mass starts
- people who jump the queue
- loudmouths and crass persons
Not so major pet peeves:
- incorrect use of your/you’re; its/it’s; there/they’re/their, among many others
- people who don’t know how to sneeze correctly
- the word “okay”
- book covers that have a fold
- messy desks
Enough... hahaha...
