My Winnings So Far

I love joining giveaways! :) For this year, I've won the following so far:

- Belle de jour Power Planner (with notebook and cash tracker)
- Urbanears Tanto
- 4 Premiere Tickets for Before Midnight
- Grow Your Handmade Business book (Haven't received this yet, though. Just found out I won last night.)


I've been wanting to watch this movie ever since I heard that there was a third installment in the Before movies. I actually joined 3 online contests just to be sure that I would win. :D Here's my entry for juice.ph:

I was a hopeless romantic and certified NBSB (No Boyfriend Since Birth). I watched tear-inducing Korean drama, listened to emo love songs, indulged in romantic comedies, and read Nicholas Sparks novels, as I patiently waited for the One. Everyday I prayed to God, hoping Mr. Right was just around the corner. I often grew impatient, asking God what's taking him so long. Part of this period of my life, I came across "Before Sunset." It was actually the first of the series that I've seen, with no idea that there was a prequel. I got curious right away with the first installment, so I searched for it. When I saw both films, I just thought love was so magical and lovely, yet so cruel and mysterious (as the two lovers parted ways twice). Then I met a guy who swept me off my feet and made me love for the first time(corny as it sounds). Someone I could talk to for hours, sharing my innermost thoughts and feelings, and made me feel like I was floating in the air. I was falling deeply fast. I thanked God for finally answering my prayers. But just like Jesse and Celine, we were also constrained by time. We were faced with many obstacles, so we decided to separate, but not before we made use of our remaining time together. Since we were pressed for time, we spent almost all our days together, 'till we had to say good-bye. It was heartwrenching and caused me to be depressed for a long time. But like Jesse and Celine, fate brought us back together again. Then again, just like the two of them, we separated again. This may sound crazy, but we were again reunited, just like the protagonists of our story. And hopefully, we would stay that way forever this time. :) Hoping Jesse and Celine would also stay together. I wish to share their lovely story with my amazing boyfriend. :) "If there's any kind of magic in this world... it must be in the attempt of understanding someone, sharing something. I know it's almost impossible to succeed... but who cares, really? The answer must be in the attempt" (Celine). 

*heart-wrenching

Ugh, very corny, right? :D I'd do anything to win haha! Anyway, my boyfriend and I went together with his office mate and his girlfriend (office mate's). There were free food and drinks too! :) It was a great night!

I hope to win more giveaways! I'm such a sucker for freebies. :D Last Thursday, I also got a free pack of Oreos in the mall for buying Cadbury chocolates. I also recently bought a scratch card and won 40 Php. Haha, just a small amount. :D

Hopefully, I would be able to post more winnings soon! :)
