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.

I’m better a Car Mechanic

Wow. I don’t believe I could save 2.5K for a car aircon switch. Our car has been literally a “hot car” for about 2 weeks. The aircon switch suddenly broke one time we went for grocery. But I never initially thought it has something to do with the switch. I heard something strange from the blower area, which has been the root cause before, and I thought it again broke. I tried fixing it right that night but was not able to. The next day, I brought the car to a nearby repair shop and traced the root cause at the switch. It’s really the culprit.

Renaldo Lapuz, I am proud to be your brother. Forever.

There’s been a lot of Filipinos that brought pride to fellow Filipinos. Sports, inventions, discoveries, making records on Guinness, to name a few… And a lot of world class singers. Leah Salonga, Alan Pineda, Nicole of PCD, Billy Crawford. And some even made it to American Idol. Jasmine Trias, Jose Penala. Another Fil-Am is making it to Hollywood from San Diego California. A 16-yr old guy, I forgot his name. And another one is not making it. From Dallas, he’s no other than Renaldo Lapuz.

While watching the video I felt embarassed as a Filipino. But in the end, I realized that I am worse than him. He’s a true Filipino and I am proud of him.
