the first time ive used a portalet is when my brother took the UPCAT. i wouldnt want to use it at first but since all the restrooms in buildings are inaccessible i had no choice. i really had to take a piss. after i used it, it wasnt that bad but its wasnt good either. and when my sister also felt that she had to use the restroom an hour later, i felt that the portalet wont do so i accompanied her to kalayaan hall. why didnt i think of that earlier? well, it was easier to convince the guard since she's a girl as opposed to a guy since i thnk the lady guard would have been hesitant to let me use kalayaan hall's restroom. but thats merely an assumption. and since the topic is about the portalet and taking a leak, might as well talk about the first time i used MMDA's pink urinals. it was three years ago, and i was out with some of my blockmates (i think it was nikki, jen and mark) and just came from angelo's party at his place. while nikki was driving us to go to where she will drop us, i just had this need to take a leak and told nikki i really had to go. i wont be able to hold it very long. so when i saw the pink urinal at the side of the road, i was just so glad that MMDA had these things. i told nikki to stop by the urinal and there i relieved myself. they were laughing when i came back because i really couldnt hold it and really had to go. its not really a good place to take a piss but well, its still very useful and convenient when you really have to take a leak.
but it seems that the MMDA has neglected these urinals recently. so, they're more unsanitary than before, and the awful stench of urine is unbearable for passers-by. given this current condition, well, if the need to use them arises, might go for the wall than the pink urinals.
