Posted by nina under Contests

Christmas has passed and I’m still digesting food from Noche Buena and Christmas dinner. I hope you guys had a great Christmas as well!

As promised, the winners of the Schützen notebook contest are:

Bella, who loved Quiapo at first sight wins the slim purple and yellow notebook; dementedchris, who was awed by centuries-old palaces and temples of Beijing wins the medium pink and beige notebook; and Ellen Joy Castel, who holidayed in Batangas with her family wins the big yellow and purple notebook.

Thanks for all who joined and congratulations to all the winners! Watch out for more contests coming up in 2010!

We have our winners!

Posted by nina under Contests

Thank to everyone who joined my Wii Nights contest and my Bratpack Bag Diaries contest. It was tough picking just one, but only one can win.

The winner of the Wii party package at Red Box is…

Roanne Lim!

I’m Jigglypuff from Super Smash Brothers. I’m cute and pink, and like Jigglypuff my singing puts people to sleep. If I win a Wii party at Red Box I can brush up on my singing and play the Wii at the same time, hitting two birds with one stone… hahaha! That is if I don’t put everyone to sleep first…

Congratualtions Roanne! You can schedule your Wii Party through Ms. Joyce Pogoy of GeiserMaclang by calling 0917-5234624, 812-8828 or 812-9199. I hope you don’t put your friends to sleep while singing ;)

I know I said I will announce the winner of the Bratpack contest on the 19th, but since my weekend plans fell through, I can announce it now! The winner of the Jansport backpack is…

Kaoko!

Kaoko shared the sweet story of how she and her green Jansport met her boyfriend and his black Jansport.

There was a black backpack on the shelf, right where he usually placed his. “Is he visiting today?” I wondered. A few months ago, checking for his bag on the shelf was the first thing I’d do. Sometimes, I would sneakily put my backpack beside his where he’d be sure to see it, just so he’d know I was still in school and we could commute home together. I guess it was a force of habit, so I put my green backpack, identical except for the color, next to his.

Congrats Kao, you may contact Ms. Arbee Panga of GeiserMaclang at though 0917-5344624, 812-8828 or 812-9199.

Agains, thanks to everybody who submitted their entries, and to Bratpack, RedBox and Geiser Maclang for making this contest possible. Watch out for more contests here in Justwandering.org! I have another one coming up soon ;)

Nina Fuentes | Lovin' ManilaNina, going through quarterlife crisis, decided to stop talking about traveling and actually start traveling. Starting with a solo weekend trip to Cebu to a backpacking trip in Thailand and Singapore, she finally made it out of Asia and into Australia. After spending close to six months down under, she's happily settled in Manila (for now), intent to explore the best things the Philippines has to offer.
