Sharing Cadbury and Joy and Possible Boracay Trip! **CONTEST ALERT**

August 17, 2011 by

 

Last Friday evening, I was at Bizu, Greenbelt 2 for the unveiling of Cadbury’s online contest, Cadbury Dairy Milk Joy Shots promo.  Together with good friends, Richard and Irene, it was an evening of fun and laughter, and a bit of friendly competition too, as we were pitted against other trio of friends. 

 

The evening of good food and side-splitting games was a perfect segue to the message of happy bonding moments.  Sharing and bonding time are made more meaningful when you are with family or friends, or friends considered family.  Share Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolates between those memorable moments and build up the happy vibe.  Chocolates always draw out happy endorphins and with Cadbury’s delicious, creamy and smooth chocolate taste, it’s almost a guarantee. 

 

Cadbury Philippines invites everyone to join the Cadbury Dairy Milk Joy Shots promo.  Capture a natural happy bonding moment with your friends and you just might be spending an exciting round trip to Boracay!  And THIS surely will be an unforgettable vacation that you and your friends will enjoy and remember together!

Coffee Shop Survey

June 29, 2011 by

 

 

Dear Readers and Coffee Lovers,

 

A friend’s cousin is planning to open a coffee shop soon in the Metro.  To better understand the market needs, he is holding a coffee shop survey at this link: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PHLCoffeeShopSurvey. 

 

 

COFFEE SHOP SURVEY

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/PHLCoffeeShopSurvey

 

 

It takes LESS THAN 5 minutes to answer.  I have taken the survey myself.  He is raffling off ten (10) SM GCs worth PHP 1K to the survey respondents.

 

 

It ain’t bad to get your feedback and comments on coffee shops and probably WIN a P1K SM GC for 5 minutes of your time and feedback.

KFC Photo Caption CONTEST – Taste the Best Summer Ever

April 29, 2011 by

 

 

Last year, KFC ran the KFC Krushers Sweet Escape Contest.  I sent the link to Madz and Pearl knowing both are into creative photographs.  They started really getting into it and one afternoon, we spent our time trying to come up with a good photo to submit.

 

Ta-da!

An Afternoon of SereniTea and a FUN Photo Shoot

Well, what do you think?  Obviously, we didn’t win.  But the creative shoot under the rain and the heat under the costumes became a really funny and FUN memory for me.

 

 

This year, KFC launched A Taste of Summer campaign where they introduced three new products.  These products are the Ben10 Bucket Meal, the Fish Twister, and the Summer Krushers.  All the contestants need to do is to shoot themselves wearing a typical summer outfit in an environment totally not associated with summer enjoying any of the three new KFC products.  Quite an interesting, creative and fun-filled photo that must be!

 

 

Each category has its own assigned Grand Prize:

Fish Twister Best Photo Prize: A shopping trip for 2 to either Hong Kong, Vietnam or Bangkok.

Ben10 Bucket Meal Best Photo Prize: A trip for 4 to either of the following Asian theme parks: HK Disneyland, HK Ocean Park or Universal Studios Singapore.

Summer Krushers Best Photo Prize: A beach trip for 4 to either of the following beaches: Coron, Boracay, Panglao.

 

Whether you joined that contest or not, YOU can join this one!

CLEAN AND CLEAR BFF 8 Date and An All-out Adventure

November 10, 2010 by

 

 

CLEAN AND CLEAR Philippines recently launched its new and improved CLEAN and CLEAR Deep Action Cleanser that has a rice extract oil absorbing element that helps get rid of excess oil for up to 8 hours.  Imagine that, no worry of oily skin for 8 actual hours.  There are many activities you can get your hands on without the need to schedule a beeline to the loo every so often.

 

The new and improved CLEAN & CLEAR® Deep Action Cleanser (SRP PHP 125) uses an innovative Rice Extract Oil Absorbing System that works better to control oil, keeping skin shine-free for several hours.  It is completely oil-free and will not over-dry skin.  They say oiliness is next to ugliness –this is true since having an oily face is where pimple and breakouts stem from.  

 

 

One wash with the CLEAN and CLEAR Deep Action Cleanser can get you a good 8 hours of fun-filled day with your partner in crime.  And that’s exactly how my BFF Maddie and I spent last Saturday afternoon –hopping from one activity to another. 

 

Hot-Air Balloon Festival, Pampanga

 

Clean and Clear invited 15 bloggers together with their best friends to get the first dibs of the Facebook app they recently launched for a contest –it’s a contest that targets best friends and the fun times they spend together during a BFF Date! 

 

Squeezing our semi-favorite person, Francis, at URCC

Laugh and Let Live

 

The team also prepared a fun contest for us for that day.  The task was simple.  Armed with PHP 1,500, we had to document the activities me and my best friend go through on our BFF Date, whatever those are, and upload these photos on the app.  Bloggers are then asked to return to TGIF, have snacks, upload their photos and create their own scrapbook. Judges will go over the entries and select the winning scrapbook!  The winning pair will receive one 16GB iPad each!  

 

Maddie and I did what we do best –CONNECT.  We connected on the activities we wanted to do in the time that were given to us and connected in heart –all in the spirit of fun and craze.  I’m so happy that she found the time to share this experience with me when I invited her.

 

Exploring Singapore

Maddie and I were both in competition mode! 😉

–

Turning Japanese?

–

Sharing the morning sun

–

We won’t budge

Still had a few ideas on our minds but time was almost out so we headed back to TGI Friday’s, where the Clean and Clear event was held, and started picking out the top photos we want to share with the rest of the world –and of course, with the judges.

 

The top female/beauty bloggers (hello to Tara, Dang, Phoebs, Ro, MrsM, Jill, Jeng and all those who were there!) with their best friends started coming back to the restaurant and we were all busy with uploading the photos and tinkering with the Facebook App.  When each team was done submitting their photos ala scrapbook, the judges began deliberating.

 

Soul that turned into “Sole”

 

Nica Arcilla, Assistant Brand Manager for Clean and Clear Philippines, graciously thanked everyone for participating in the activity that day and giving the judging panel a difficult time to pick a winning team.  Finally, she announced the winner… “Congratulations to…”

 

Jane and Madz!!!  Both Maddie and I squealed and shrieked and basically bounced in our seats in PURE JOY!  We EACH won a 16GB iPad and we were ecstatic!  I hugged Maddie tight and kept giggling with her.  At one point, I had to hush us because we might be making too much noise.

 

 

We were handed a ceritificate to remember the win.  I can’t wait when the iPads finally get delivered!!! 🙂   Thanks to the judges who appreciated all our fun photos/activities.

 

 

“Soul Sisters Put Heart into Art” Scrapbook

 

Glimpse of me and my bestfriend, my soul sister, finding beauty in all the simple things in Life.  No matter how complex or simple Life can be, happiness is a choice. 

 

Sometimes all you need is a few change in your pocket, a bright idea, a happy vibe and the best person to spend the hours with.  Life is an art.  Paint it with vibrant colors!

 

A clean and clear face matches a clean heart and a clear mind.

 

Hour 1: Creating a Bubble World.  Don’t Pop the Happy Bubble!

 

We got each other’s back! 😉  Creating a shirt with hands on the back

 

Hour 2: Photo finish.  Race with a kid?

 

Capturing the moments in Neo Print and Racing with a Kid at an arcade.

 

Hour 3: Basket of Fun!  Shooting Hoops.

 

Bounce, bounce, she fell and scores!

 

Hour 4: Chilling.  Bonding.  Hearts Strung.

 

“Sole” Sistas that connect in silence too

 

Hour 5: Bright Idea! Clean and Clear Face.

 

A clean and clear face matches a clean heart and a clear mind

 

Hour 6: Sending Love Notes to Our Parents who are in Heaven

 

Wherever they are, they are always in our hearts all the days of our lives.

 

Hour 7: Round and Round in a Carousel Ride

 

Kids at Heart.  The joy in simple things.

 

Hour 8: Making a Puppet!

 

Life imitates art.  Art imitates Life.

 

 

 

NOW, IT’S YOUR TIME to SHARE YOUR BFF DATE!

 

 

CLEAN AND CLEAR lets girls do what they love to do without having to worry about oily skin, and on this note, all teenager girls in the Philippines (aged 14 and above) are invited to go on a legendary BFF 8 Date with their best friends.

The BFF 8 Date Facebook application challenges you and your best friend to spend the best and most interesting 8 hours together, document the activities through photos, and then upload them onto the Facebook app which will automatically arrange the photos into a scrapbook to share your 8-hour adventure with the world!
