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.

Not another SMS Scam!

Why in hell is this Recardo D Ocampo still exist? I again received a very exciting text message from him. I only wish it’s true.

C ongrat’s ur cell# Had won 2.
MILLION pesos from GMA K-4
foundation 2 Central BANK of the Phil.
DTI-Permit
#3306 March, 19 2008 Call me
now. atty; Recardo D Ocampo

His text message looks like a puzzle somehow. Some of his words are capitalized, punctuation marks are not properly used. Does it mean something? The message structure is weird. It’s not convincing, it does not cast a bit of truth.

Our nanny had almost been a victim of this guy. One time when I got home, our nanny was very excited and asked me, “Kuya, do you think this is real?”. I asked her right away, “Do you remember joining a contest?”. Don’t fall for it. It’s a scam. Just to know that she already called that Recardo guy, and luckily she ran out of load.

I hope it stops already. And I hope nobody has been a victim of him by far.

Motorola W230 Release Date

My Sun Cellular SIM Card has been sleeping inside my wallet for a while already. I’m paying for it eventhough I don’t use it. I already dumped my LG-KG220 for only Php 2K. It’s design is elegant, I really liked it. Still the most beautiful phone I ever had in terms of the looks. But it’s just not easy to use and I got annoyed. I bought a Nokia 1200 and it was cool. Keys are soft, making calls and SMS are really easy to do. But after 2 weeks, I sold my Nokia 1200 for a lower price.

Now, I’m on the hunt for a new cheap phone and I was actually targeting small Nokia Classic phones like 2100, 1100, etc… for SMS and calls. I want to have Nokia 1200 again so I can use the spare BL-5C battery of my lost N-Gage. But I’m kind of hesitant now that I learned Motorola is launching the World’s Cheapest Music Phone. The Motorola w230 is priced at only PHP 2,490.00 or roughly USD $50.00, according to Jayvee.

But where the heck can I get this one? Has it been released to the market already? I already inquired at Motorola SM Mall of Asia brach last night but they don’t have any idea of when and how much it’s gonna be.

I read somewhere that it’s going to be released Q1 of 2008. When exactly? And I don’t know where? And it’s nearing “March end already”… I need to know…

Manny Pacquiao vs. Juan Manuel Marquez

Then my Pacquiao vs. Marquez predictions did not come true; except to those for politicians. It is still something to be happy about because once more, Manny Pacquiao triumphed over Juan Manuel Marquez.

But the fight was not as intense as Pacquiao - Barrera or Pacquiao - Morales. It’s not worth the excitement, it’s not worth the PPV, it’s not worth anything. The scores are somehow questionable as well. 115 - 112 for Marquez, 115 - 112 for Pacquiao, 114 - 113 for Pacquiao. I don’t know anything about scoring the match but it’s not convincing for me. This is just my opinion.

A Journey to Tagaytay

Sometimes, things happen when it’s unplanned. Though, it’s more probably won’t be as successful as planned. -mrniceash

I’d say, it was a strange day. While we normally go somewhere during weekends to have lunch, today is somehow too different. We only usually hang out on some fastfood and restaurant inside malls where there usually is huge crowd and loud noise that you almost can’t hear what your mate is saying and you have to shout when you speak so you can be heard.
