 Did you know that the Earth receives more energy from the sun in one hour than the amount of energy that all of humanity consumes in one year, which is 17.7 terawatts-hour? 1 terawatt-hour is equivalent to 1 trillion watt-hours or 1 billion kilowatt-hours. This means that the potential of solar energy in powering the whole world is very big. In fact, in terms of energy potential, solar energy dwarfs all the other types of energy sources, renewables and fossil fuels alike. The comparison of the total energy potentials for each energy sources is shown below: As we can see, the energy potential of solar is so huge that it is even more than all the other energy sources combined! Because of this, as of the current state of solar PV technology, we would only need to fill 496,805 square kilometers with solar panels to power the whole world. This is a land area that is only almost as big as Spain. The International Energy Agency is also projecting that solar energy will be our primary source

I learned this new BDO feature upon watching my brother's vlog about Cash Agad. He withdrew his money on a partnered branch thru a sari-sari store. On his video, He mentioned that there's a Php 30 transaction fee and it will be deducted from your atm. He outlined the process on his vlog, first you need enter your pin from the small electronic device and check your balance. Then you need to confirm the amount you're withdrawing. Once the machine confirmed your transaction, the store associate will hand over the cash amount you wanted to encash. It's a very easy transaction especially if you live far away from the ATM machines. To avoid stress and anxiety, I suggest you withdraw during daytime and check the nearest location with you first. I don't know if they have a list of partners on BDO website or if you can check it thru the app (I'm going to confirm). Since we're still living on a pandemic, it is really hard to withdraw cash. Well, I don't carry cash

  I would like to share my unboxing series on this blog post. Since the pandemic, I haven't really went to a mall to shop what I want instead I rely on online shopping. It's sad to learn that some establishments decided to close because there's no foot traffic and the sales were down. I have a Prime membership on Amazon which offers "free shipping" so basically I order my stuff through Amazon - everything I need from Shower caddy to Fitbit band replacement to underwear or even essentials! I only go out on weekends to grocery and refill our pantry, I miss going out to the mall and browse different products. Sometimes, it's really hard to decide if you like the dress you saw online because you will only think the size "fits" you but it really depends on the quality of fabric and design.  Enjoy watching this short clip that I compiled and uploaded on Youtube. I have been taking some videos of my unboxing so that I would remember how often I order online

 I just wanted to greet everyone a very Merry Christmas and Stay Safe!

I received this notice from my GMAIL inbox that Yahoogroups will be permanently shut down on December 15. It was on early 2000 since I moderated several YahooGroups. It was a good journey to meet people during those times and was able to create a community who you share the same interest.  I tried to recover some of my emails and files that I uploaded but unfortunately they said data were removed in 2019. I think I missed the email. I wanted to thank everyone who became part of f4_phils and Jerry Yan Philippines Yahoogroups though you know where to reach me :) I'm active on Social Media - Facebook, Twitter and Instagram but I never created another group since the resources were available online and other International groups are generous enough to share the updates unlike before that I need to login to different forums and asked permission to the admin to allow us to repost the news/events/photos/videos! Two of the most actively used group platform were gone - YahooGroups and Multi

It was my first time to vote as US citizen and I'm excited. Due to Covid-19 pandemic, we decided to register and requested a mail-in ballot. We logged in to our county and fill up the application. Weeks later, the ballot was mailed and we voted at home. We followed the instruction and you should read carefully so that your ballot will be counted and valid. Make sure you only shade once otherwise it will be rejected. The most important thing is when you finished, make sure you signed the sealed envelope. It was an easy task since we're home and we sit down and read everything before voting. I waited for the early voting schedule since they told that there'll be mail-in ballots machine to drop off your ballots instead of going to the Post Office (well, USPS is just across the building LOL). Then, the ballot will be counted right after the election on the same day. I'm glad its already over and we're just waiting for the official results. I stayed late hours for the pa
