First off, I would like to greet everyone - Happy Holidays!

From Engineering Week to Year-end parties - I did and still have my hands full and although I got really sick for a couple of days, vacation is a blast so far.

Now that I have a couple of uninterrupted hours of free internet time, let me spend it on some Entrecard dropping and whaddayaknow - a new post about prizes I got, prizes I want and prizes I’m giving away.

Gotcha. By the spirit of the holidays, let me declare my feeling of utmost gratitude to Ms. Janette Toral and to the Filipina Writing Project for awarding my post - The Funniest Filipina Vloggers - as one of the most liked entries of the bunch. With the $100 prize, I finally got enough to buy a new digital camera (a Casio Exilim) which is on top of my new year’s wishlist (and a HUGE necessity for this vlog) . Thank you, thank you, thank you Ma’am Janette!

Wanna. Also, a big congratulations to my high school buddy, Marius “Yos” Oczon, for winning the Grand Prize (a 13″ Macbook) for his Nescafe 3-in-1 flick that I featured here on CokskiBlue! With Yos’s victory and this Eng’g Week filmfest’s great turnout, I just might try my luck on these video-making contests this 2008!

Gimme. And finally, I would like to apologize to the uBlog, iVlog winners - Sir Manuel, Jon and Mikaela for the delayed “delivery” of your prizes. I know I promised to do the videos this year but time was not on my side. And since it’s the first time I’m giving these away, I’m kinda lost on which and what specifics I should ask for. So I’m very, very sorry guys. Don’t worry I’m working on it now. And you will be receiving an e-mail from me in the coming days.

I’m cooking up an all-new video. Something that you guys are pretty familiar of. Hopefully I start 2008 with a bang. Happy New Year!
