My dad brought me to KL today to collect these two from the 7-Eleven HQ office (won from their contest previously, read here and here).

It was a weird adventure.

Dad drop me then he went to finish his errands. I was alone while collecting it (took around half an hour), then I went across to Times Square... and walked around.

It's been years since I've been to that place, ended up being like some lost tourist roaming endlessly.. Times Square has seriously so much floors........ at the end I wanted to find a place to sit down, and I found myself ending up in KFC ordering something just so I can sit down and chill. Contemplated to go to Chatime actually but seems like nobody really sits there... (awkward for me to just wait..)...... and also Starbucks, but reality is I don't quite fancy sipping coffee alone.

After that I had lunch with dad in lowyat (weird place I tell you, they only have Premium Toilets which charge you RM1?!!!!!..... ended up going to some hotel to borrow their white throne, hehehehe). Went back home after and took the picture above! And about 10-20 more shots. Heh.

Seriously ze brothers and I were extremely jakun as the iPod is the first Apple product we (or I, heh) have ever own! & the PSP for my youngest brother........ meow.

Extremely grateful. All thanks to God! :)

I spent several moments of the day to finally digest my thoughts about this week' 2nd round.

Once again, I thank God that I won. The down side is that I dropped from rank 12 to rank 75 this week ! Scary part is that I need to really push the limits as next week there will only be 40 winners instead of 80.

When I found out that I'm blessed with the chance to buy an iPod touch at only RM7, I should be happy. Yet instead I was sad as Sher, Paul, and my brother didn't win!

They surely are disappointed although they don't display it. I knew they were SO close to winning. The bars are set so high this week.

Then, I finally shrug off my sadness, because I'm comforted that one day Sher, Paul, and my brother will win something(s) they ultimately desire !

To finally understand that the thing about contests is that.......... there will always be winning and losing. I really don't know how to explain my situation (mum calls 'winning streak'), but I just want to give all thanks to God for all the opportunities and exposure.

To realize that I only won the contests that I deserve (or need) at that moment of time. This year I participated in quite some amount of contests... and I did win most of it, but I still lost the others (of which some crushed me) too !

And I'm fine with it. You know why? You win and you lose. Here I am praying so hard to win, and there's like so many more people out there praying too ! So when the results out and you did not win does it mean that God did not answer your prayers? No, because He knows what you need, and you will have your time of winning one day ! Trust me, you WILL !

Remember to only participate in contests that you really want to win, because if not you should give the chance to someone else who wants to win it! And also if you do participate in a contest, pour your whole HEART in it, because if you win, GREAT, if you didn't, FINE, because you gave your BEST ! Also, stay humble stay humble stay humble ! :) 

Such a long-winded post, apologies.

Was shocked to find out that I placed 12 out of 80 in 7-Eleven's What's The Big Deal (click!) game on Facebook !

They contacted me and I am really happy that I would be able to purchase a Sony PSP at RM 7 for my youngest brother! He's been dreaming for one for ages, and this is really the ultimate amazing blessing. The cutest thing is that he already piled RM 7 worth of coins for me, from his savings!

Aww.
Yesterday was the first round of the game. My brothers watched the video with me and we were like crazy excited people. We only had 2 chances (based on number of receipts).... hence I thought we wouldn't win.

God is so great, as I really for the first time did not expect to win, yet I did ! :')
