Like anybody else, I hate the way Sony named these earbuds. Coming from an AirPod user, I developed a love and hate with these earbuds. Although I must say I will never go back with AirPod after using them. Here are my likes and dislikes after using them for several months now.   Likes: Noise-cancelling.   These earbuds will significantly reduce ambient noise. I used these while I’m in the living room with the TV on and I barely hear the TV. The TV is connected to a soundbar and the volume is at 30 percent.   I’ve also used these in a cafe, food court, grocery and mall and the noise cancelling is really impressive.   I’ve also used these while walking outside and I don’t hear the vehicles 1 block away. You will hear the vehicles if they passed you by.   Sound quality.   When I’m listening to Jason Mraz, Jack   Johnson or a similar genre, I can hear every beat.

In the Philippines day, time and nighttime always get an equal share of the 24 hours and there are only two seasons: summer and rainy season.   A vehicle is a necessity in Canada. In the

Generally, rainbows are considered a good sign. The picture was taken on my way to work and sadly it was my last day at work too. I was terminated without cause.  This pandemic or Covid 19 that we're experiencing impacted everyone at different levels of hardship. I don't think I have to enumerate them one by one but I'm pretty sure you know what I mean: from losing their jobs, loved ones and up to being quarantined or isolating.  In my case, it's a lot tougher because not only I lost my job, my son has severe autism too. My son is 13 years old and he's non-verbal. He doesn't know how to read, he's not potty trained, you have to help him when eating and the list of the things he can't do will pretty much fill this blog entirely.  Because of my son's condition, our lifestyle is very limited. My wife and I can't go out and take my son to a gathering. It's either my wife or I will go. Work schedules too can be challenging. When the pandemic broke
