Just Got Lucky Series: The Beauty Junkee's 3rd Blog Anniversary Giveaway


On the night of June 5th, before going to sleep, I felt the urge to check my personal Facebook page on my new smart phone... Hubby was already sleeping while I was silently scrolling through my page in the dark...


Then....


I got a message on my Facebook page wall coming from Ms. Martha, The Beauty Junkee, telling me to check my email. And I hurriedly opened my email inbox from my phone and excitedly opened the message with her name on it.


She chose me as one of her recipients on her 3rd Blog Anniversary Giveaway. She told me that one of the winners didn't respond to her email, so she had to chose another one. =)


I felt so giddy that I tapped hubby and told him that I won! =D

Me: (After reading Ms. Martha's email, eyes opened wide and felt giddy) Jagi!!!
Hubby: (Still sleeping and grunting in reply) ....
Me: I won!!! I won!!!
Hubby: (Snored)
Me: (Ignored his snores and still felt giddy) =D

Honestly, I had a harder time going to sleep that night, and my tweets that night were true. =D


I marked the day of the meet-up on my calendar in my smartphone, as winners from Metro Manila are supposed to pick up the prizes personally from her. =)


The venue was in Bonifacio High Street, Taguig. It was the first time that me and hubby would go there. We first took the PNR Train, from the station a few blocks from our street then when we got off Nichols station, the hubby decided to take a cab in going to the venue, for several purposes: he doesn't want to be late for the meet-up because of taking a jeepney ride and, we made a boo-boo of forgetting to bring an umbrella on a dark, cloudy day.  (You know, if you take the jeep, there's a chance that you'll get lost. He usually take a cab when we go somewhere we are not familiar with, especially when we have to meet someone. I am the adventurous type, and I like searching for various ways on how to get to a place commuting. =D Hence, the reason why instead of taking a cab from our place, I insisted that we try taking the train ride. Besides, there's no traffic when taking the train. =D It was my second time to take the PNR train. 


Eventually, it started drizzling when we got off the train, so we had no choice but to hail a cab. =D


In the cab, hubby started teasing me about the meet-up. He said, I might freeze again in shyness. =D


I told him, "Never again!" Hahaha!!! XD


We got to The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf by 4pm, I'm not sure if I was the first to arrive but we sat there and waited for a tiny bit. I saw Ms. Martha with the loads of goodies for us and she immediately handed me my loot. We sat down and waited for the others. Like what I said in my previous post, she was very nice. ^__^


Sorry I blabbered a lot! Hahaha! Now, let me share my loot! ^__^


I won the Woman on Top Gift Pack. ^__^

Ever won in a contest/giveaway lately? Share them below! ^__^


P.S: Remember my Back-to-School Series? I don't think I could still make posts on school hairstyles because I will be having my L'oreal Chroma Straight Makeover (courtesy of Ms. Shen and L'oreal Professionel) on Sunday. I will be busy this weekend but I will try to film the hairstyles that I listed down on my notepad.


I really wish I could still film these hairstyles! -__-
