CFLs are Built to Last… A Few Months

Something I realized the first time I bought these expensive heavily publicized CFLs or what I call the White Bulbs–they don’t reach the lifetime no. of hours as stated on the box. Meaning you are actually paying more money for less light output hours.

Some Compact Fluorescent Bulbs Don’t Meet Long-Life Claims

Supposed to be these CFLs should last longer than the power-hogging incandescent bulbs while consuming less electricity. Now I do not know what to believe anymore.

Makati’s Inconspicuous E-Jeepney

It’s been months since I went to Manila, and what a welcome experience it has been when I saw the famously ignored e-jeepney while we’re on our way to Greenbelt 5 for an expensive dinner. The e-jeep hit the TV shows last year or last last year. I forgot about it for a while, although at the back of my mind I know there were e-jeeps roaming Bonifacio Global City in Taguig. I’m no stranger to Makati so I was really surprised to see this green car which is smaller than a jeep but bigger than a golf cart, and looks like the small cabs which services new routes in Lipa (like the Big Ben-PKI route). Luckily, cars were at a standstill at Dela Rosa St. and I was able to pull out our 1000D from its bag and in one swift motion, take a picture of the e-jeep before the traffic went on its way.

Welcome to my Website.

A year after I bought this domain, which to me then was really really special, I am now writing my first post on my first public personal blog.  I forgot why I bought it in the first place, and I am kinda hoping I’ll remember in the next few weeks.  If you are reading this, welcome to my website.  This is JR Cantos, and although you don’t know me, I have been wanting to meet you for some time now. 

Come and join the fun.
