Cu4tro Cantos

The Four Songs of Life

Cu4tro Cantos is the new Ala Eh Blog. Since I cannot provide pure Batangueño articles, I decided a revamp of the site, which I think is more appropriate. Cu4tro Cantos refers to the four members of the Cantos Family. In spanish, Cuatro means Four, and Cantos means Songs.

A Dollar a Click

A dollar a clickThis is no high amount for a click but to me it is. As I opened my Firefox browser, I was surprised to see my AdSense Notifier. I have never seen this before. For the years I’ve been running AdSense, I only reached $.01 a click. My most productive month was last September, with an average daily earning of less than $5. So I should be surprised, shouldn’t I?

A dollar a click

But this is just on the notifier. I think this add-on should be fixed. When I looked at the actual report, there’s really no changes on the average. Still $.01.

UPDATE:
AdSense: A dollar a click I just hope this is real. $50 a day? This is really gonna make me happy. I think I will just have to enjoy seeing this for the meantime. And not look at the real figure. AdSense Notifier is certainly broken but I enjoy what I see… Can it update the actuals as well and not just displaying it? How I wish… :)

Christmas Wishlist

Too early, isn’t it? Well, it’s better early to prepare my Christmas wishlist while I have time to think of all I want. :) I know all of us wish peace and prosperity for the world. That’s given. Let me be ‘materialistic’ this time. I haven’t been like this before. Here’s the list.

  1. iPod Touch. iPod Classic or Microsoft Zune.
  2. Long sleeves (checked. thanks to my wife.)
  3. Rubber shoes.
  4. Tachometer. (checked)
  5. ASUS EEE PC
  6. Digital Camera.
  7. yoga pose and exercise guide (for my wife)
  8. RC Cars.
  9. Nintendo Wii.
  10. Naruto Wii.
  11. A new wallet.
  12. A new bag.
  13. Billiards cue stick.
  14. Car audio setup.

I’m starting to get sleepy. I’ll just update this list when I thought of something more.

Update: I just got news from my credit card issuer that I have about 20K+ points to spend on their rewards list. I thought of choosing gifts from the rewards list and give  this as my Christmas present for my wife. Here are the choices:

1. Turbo Broiler + 1000 Peso Gift Certificate from a Spa

2. Oven Toaster + 1000 Peso Gift Certificate from a Spa

3. Hotdog Griller + 1000 Peso Gift Certificate from a Spa

Actually, there are other choices in the Rewards List, I forwarded it to her as well, so she can choose. I just hope that she likes what’s on my list of my gifts for her. :)

Who is Who?

Keira Knightley Lena Headey
I’ve seen them in movies and I always get confused of who is who among the two. Well, I’ve know Keira Knightley first (only in movies), so every time I see Lena Heady on movies, I always thought she was Keira.Most especially if I don’t know the cast yet. They really look alike. Their beauty is so natural that they don’t have to undergo plastic surgery in San Jose.

Anyway, they’re both wonderful actress. Their recent movies were a box office hit, 300 and Pirates of the Caribbean. And I just heard the news, Keira’s Atonement is making a hit as well and pro’ly gonna bring her a Best Actress award. They look good. They really do. And wait, I like Lena in Imagine me and You. Is she really not a girl?

Lena’s portrayal of Spartan Queen Gorgo to King Leonidas was very compelling. Spartan women are known to be tough. And that’s what Lena showed in the movie. There is something about her that makes you respect her. Her aura is that of a woman who needs no man to defend her.

On the other hand, Keira’s performance in the Pirates series is also enjoyable. Who would think that a waifish Elizabeth Swann would end up being the captain of a Singaporean pirate ship. We all loved her wit and charm. We also followed her love-hate relationship with Jack Sparrow and of course, her union with her one true love, Will Turner.

Whew, I better stop this seemingly unending homage to these two actresses before I start drooling. :)

Surgery Lyrics

I’ve been searching for Grey’s Anatomy soundtrack lyrics on a lyrics database and saw this. But I don’t think it’s in GA’s OST. Well, I think it’s suitable since it’s about surgery. I don’t know the song though.
