So here are a couple of the things I’ve won online this year, which I find worth sharing.

1) LIESE KEYCHAIN

Around last month, but I only received it recently.
Don’t even need to spend money buying their products or whatsoever, just be among the first 500 to like their Facebook page 😀

rainbowloveee™Haven’t removed the paper behind because it’s black + hotpink!

Negative effect :>

2) SPLIT BY A KISS BOOK

Months ago, sorry I’m so slow.
The whole thing was amazing and one of the most pleasant surprises ever.

It all started on Twitter.
I followed Luisa Plaja, author of this book and told her how much I loved her books. Not only did she reply me, she followed me back too! I was sooo happy.

We started talking every now and then 😀
When this new book of hers launched, I congratulated her and the most amazing thing happened.

She offered to send me a copy of her book as a gift to say thanks for all the support! How awesome is that!! ^-^ Thanks to my account being hacked, I lost all the messages from her but ohwell.

One week after I gave her my address….

rainbowloveee™
THIS arrived in the mail! 😀 😀 😀

rainbowloveee™
Omg omg how often do you get something like that happening to you?!

rainbowloveee™
Shipped all the way from UK!
“AIRMAIL” >:D

rainbowloveee™
Sorry too excited, must take many pics!!

rainbowloveee™

It’s sent directly from The Book Depository and hence, not signed. If she signed the book then sent it herself, she will have to pay the shipping fee herself too which I guess is too much to ask for.

Anw, I’m euphoric enough! 😀

The receipt thingy, courtesy of TBD -_-
I still keep it, the envelope too. The whole thing is just too splendid and unbelievable lah.

rainbowloveee™
Got bookmark also ._.

Hehehe okay enough with the picture spam.
But it’s great isn’t it! I can’t believe I am so lucky!!! 😀
More reasons why I don’t regret joining all these social networking sites, hah!

There is another thing I won – a signed book 😀
Details of the competition here!

Can see my name and Twitter link among the list of winners ^-^

It hasn’t arrived yet because the editor of teentoday hasn’t sent the book. He followed me on Twitter so I know it’s not a scam, and said he will send it as soon as he can.

Can’t wait for that to arrive too 😀
I wonder if I should reveal the winning secret I sent in? Lol.

Like I said, it’s a secret!!!
Maybe I will. Stay tuned.
Yes, another teaser 😀


Finally, after all this while

Finally completed and submitted and everything, vis-a-vis Project Post-its. Okay I am so tired and my head hurts. I will blog more details another day.

You can see the formal entry which I submitted to Nuffnang on my old Blogger site HERE and you can see the original/official picture I submitted for the contest HERE 😀
