Contest: Free LASIK Surgery

I don't get tired of joining contests, even if i really haven't won anything ( YET.. ika nga, habang may buhay may pagasa ), waiting and wondering if I won and imagining what I'll do with the prizes still excites me ( tapos tsaka ako malulugmok sa lungkot kapag hindi pangalan ko ang makita ko). :) But the most recent contest I joined is different, it is quite important and I am really hoping that I'll win this time. I won't benefit from the prize rather I'm doing it for my dad.

So without further ado..


"American Eye Center is giving away ONE FREE LASIK SURGERY to one of my readers. This is completely transferrable. So you can give the gift of seeing to someone you care about. And let’s say you win but you end up not qualified for the surgery (there’s a barrage of tests you have to go through), you can give the chance to someone else. If you want to know more about the procedure and American Eye Center, please follow EyeTweets on Twitter."

So one of the ways to win is to leave a comment on Ms. Daphne's blog and tell your story why you want to win the prize, here's my entry:

"I want this so bad because I am sure that my dad will want it, need it, love it, use it, cherish it and will really really be thankful for it. All I simply want, is for my dad to have a clear vision for him to see how beautiful his grandkids are, to be able to play with them day and night, to run with them, teach them how to bike, teach them how to be a handyman like him. A clear vision for him means more weekends to play tennis, more mornings to (easily ) read the daily newspaper, more surprise celebrations we will throw for him, more chances to be the man-of-all-work he's always been and just more years to see all our happy faces.

It breaks my heart just thinking that one day.. he won't be able to see me, my mom, my siblings, my nephews and niece and my future baby. I am a daddy's girl and that fact is just not acceptable. Winner or not, I know that I will try all my best to save up for whatever surgery he needs for his eyes, I know that it will take me long, but still, I will. But getting it for free NOW, it will for sure be God's will and my dad will then be one lucky man."

Ang drama diba? haha.. pero totoo yan and I really poured my heart out in writing it.. so guys wish me luck! Sana mapasali ako sa 12 contestants and I will need all your likes pag nagkataon!!!

Why “ My Trek thru Life”?

I named this blog “ My Trek thru Life” and here are just some of the reasons why:

· This can’t be “Lhai the Mommy blog” - Most blogs I am following and avidly
reading are mommy blogs, it’s because I am strongly influenced to blog by my
yet another mommy sister Shirley of lifetimeoftogetherness. I sometimes feel
nga na when the right time comes and I become a mommy myself, I would be sooo
ready na by reading all their mommy stories ( I guess but I don’t think
so).. so when that time comes, I will call this “My trek Thru Mommyland” na..
J


· This can’t be a beauty blog – I am a woman and I am kikay just like everyone
else in the universe. I strongly believe that all girls are made kikay, as in every
single one of us has our own kakikayan within.. I love reading beauty blogs
just like Beauty for a Living but I am not ( yet ) experimental when it comes to using any kind of products that I am not really familiar of and have been using the same set of products for the past years so making this “ My Trek thru Kikayland” wouldn’t work..


· This can’t be a travel blog – I am an avid reader of Travel footprints and as much as
I want to travel at least 2 or 3 times a year ( locally and internationally ), I just can’t find a suitable time to do it and my finances wouldn’t let me either.. Maybe when the time comes that I can manage my finances better than now ( I hope soon!!! ) ..this will be named “ My Trek thru Traveland”.. can’t wait!


· This can’t be a food blog – I am a big big fan of Casa Venaracion and have been
dying to try some of her recipes myself.. but since I work at night and too
tired to cook when I get home in the morning.. our kasambahay is always on the rescue and do it for me. although I try to cook one or two dishes during weekends or whenever Rj requests his favorite sinigang or adobo made specially by me. So when I find
more time to cook, I will surely blog it and will make this “ My Trek thru Foodland”… sounds yummy already..
J


· This can’t be a pangkabuhayan blog – Although I’ve been thinking of venturing into a
business soon ( something with low capital start-up ), I am still thinking what
to sell, who to sell it to and where to sell it… and once the planning starts, I will surely share it which will my everyday life sound like “ My trek thru Negosyoland”…


Those are the top 5 reasons why this can’t be a specific blog.. I just write anything and everything I can think of.. anything and everything that I do, think of and imagine everyday! J

Topics?

Since we just started Microsoft FY12 ( FY- Fiscal Year, they start in July and ends in June ).. mejo petiks mode pa ko kasi the client has not yet set up a meeting to talk about the plans for this year.. so while at the office, I get to enjoy some time writing/blogging.. :)

And what’s there to write about? Mejo boring ang buhay ko kasi office-bahay-office, mall during weekends lang ang drama ko every single day so I don’t really have much to share kaya I decided to make gaya what my sister Shirley of lifetimeoftogetherness and Mommy Fleur wrote on their blogs ( although hindi consistent.. hehe peace! ). But since I am the most lazy blogger around, I won’t make it a daily blog.. I will just pick random topics on the list and just write whichever topic I feel like sharing for the day..
