It was the first time in a looooong time that I saw the sun rise again. Pretty sure it still shines in the east. Took the photo on our way to Tacloban last Monday. I was supposed to do a photo blog about this trip but of all things I left behind for our 2-hour drive to the capital city, I forgot to pop in the memory card of my camera. So... boohoo! I had to make do with the iphone's camera to capture the memories. (It's not the pana, it's the Indian!) Alas, I didn't get enough to make sure this blog post will rock your socks!
Anyways, for the sake of blogging and preserving this memory forever in the blogosphere, I'm writing about our journey from Ormoc to Tacloban and back that lasted an entire day -- approximately 12 hours.
There! It's confirmed... I AM OUT OF REHAV! Just recently I acquired this very, very cool pair of Havaianas. I know there are so many designs coming out this year but this one did get me out of REHAV...
My very own 2010 World Cup USA Havaianas pair! *twirls around the room* Thanks sis Mei Lyn!
And guess what!? My good luck charm is working again! A few days ago, I received a call... and take note, it wasn't for a reservation for SALA Lounge + Café. It was from...
*drumrolls please*
... HAVAIANAS PHILIPPINES!!! Then I got an email asking for additional requirements because out of thousands of entries for the Havaianas Happy Soles contest, my video has been chosen by the judges as one of the top ten finalists!!!
*cartwheels*
Now, the interesting bit. You guys have to vote for the video so I can win this contest!!!
You've got to let me win... because if I do, I will give away a lot of Havaianas to my lucky readers and voters!!! Weeeee!
Gimme a minute of your time, login to the Havaianas site (register an account for free if you haven't) and please please please... Make me happy!!! VOTE FOR ME, MARIA VELASQUEZ!
For 17 years, I've been loyal only to one mascara. I've tried others, those that were given as gifts and pasalubongs, but no other ever came close to Maybelline.
The loyalty paid off today... when I received this COLOSSAL news!!!
I didn't even know it until Claire came over and told me about it! She told me to check Facebook! OMG! It was totally unexpected! Thank you so much Maybelline!
I'm really sorry for the late post. But I will tell you what's been keeping me tied down. Anyways, I know you guys are all excited to know who the winners are of my Mini Birthday Contest! So with no further ado.. here you go!
