Thought Bubbles...

musings, rantings, and what-have-you, about my own small part of the world, and my 'sometimes' not so-ordinary life...something to read and reflect on, and which hopefully will bring a smile to your face... :)

I feel lucky...



I just got a call from 7-11 and was informed that I won a Samsung E250 from their latest contest. I remember that early Sunday morning when Neil and I went to a nearby bicycle supply store to buy new tires for Paolo’s bike. We’ve been doing some biking in UP almost regularly during the weekends starting this year, and Paolo’s bike tires blew up one time. It was such a big hole that we decided to just buy him new tires. So anyway, after buying new tires, we decided on some hot pandesal. There was no parking in front of the bakery, so we parked instead at the nearby 7-11. To ‘justify’ our parking, I decided to buy a Big Gulp, the slurpee drink. I don’t normally buy that, but since I saw there was a contest anyway, I decided what the heck.

So enjoying my big gulp of Mountain Dew (my favorite-st soda ever!!!), I sent my text registration for the contest. That was April 13. Lo and behold, after almost a month, I get a call that I won a Samsung E250. wait for the letter, go to their Ortigas office, present 2 valid IDs, and I get my spanking-new phone! Yooohooo!!! Yup, I feel lucky!!! :D
