Win Angry Bird Shirt or Starbucks GC

6 years ago today, the best days of the rest of my life started the day after. :D

Don’t go nuts, I just want to say that April 25th is our 6th wedding anniversary and because I am always generous, I am throwing a game. I’ve been doing this every year, not necessarily every anniversary.

Here’s the game.

From what movie is this scene?

First to answer correctly will receive an Angry Bird shirt [ if you're in US] or Starbucks GC worth 500 [if you're in the Philippines]. Other countries may also join and if you win, I will think of something else to give. You also have to be a friend on Facebook or a fan of Cuatro Cantos page to join. Contest expires on 4-25th 12MN EST.

Don't let the books mislead you ;)

Congrats to the winner of 500 pesos Starbucks Gift Certificate

After a long wait, we finally have a winner. We got only a few contenders but I’d say this contest was a success. By the way, I would like to apologize for announcing this a little late. Blame the internet.

Congratulations to Ercia Shing Boom Boom Paaaakkk!. This are his or her answers to the question, “Why would I give you 500 pesos worth of Starbucks GC?

  1. kasi maganda ko!
  2. kasi magiging BFF ako ni Ley, Tito Aldrin!
  3. kasi starbucks ang dumadaloy sa aking katawan, di ako mabubuhay ng walang starbucks…
  4. kasi ishe-share ko to sa Facebook and Twitter para mas marami sumali.. oh ha!!!
  5. kasi kung hindi mo ibibigay sakin yan! isisiwalat ko mga ginawa natin tuwing sinasabi mo kay Lea na mag-OT ka! with matching pics and vids… so hindi mo ba ibibigay sakin?! ha?!? ano!?!

Those were actually non-sense answers, but the no.5 was very threatening that it actually forced me to use violent force on my wife to make it the winning comments. She kinda fought back at first, but thought she should just give up because she realized she would not want to hear about it.

So again, Congratulations Ercia Shing Boom Boom Paaaakkk!. You certainly deserve it.

To all, thanks for joining. Please watch out for more.

It’s about time. Get your 200 worth of Sodexho Gift Certificate.

UPDATE 07-01-2010: Nobody got it right because I messed up the riddle. The last clue is supposed to be “it never ends”. It’s an epic fail, really.

UPDATE: This is due on the 30th @ 11:59 in the evening. Winner will be announced on July 1st.

I know you’ve been waiting for the 500 pesos worth of Starbucks GC, which will be raffled on July 15th. And while you wait, you may answer this riddle I composed this morning. You may send in as many entries as you can. I will select the winner from comments with right answers. The only clue for the answer is “think clean, not green“, aside from the riddle itself. Here we go!

“It can be short, it can be long
Goes up and down, right and wrong
Sometimes it’s slow, sometimes it’s fast
No matter how, no matter what, it never last it never ends.

Why would I give you this 200 pesos worth of Starbucks GC?

UPDATE: Screw this game! 200 pesos? Let’s make it 500 so you can bring a date while you enjoy your coffee. How’s that?

Starbucks GC


It’s becoming like a tradition for us here in our blog to give away something for the readers. We have given away bags and gadgets before and this time we think a 200500 pesos worth of Starbucks GC is fair enough.

So who wants?

Just leave your answer to the comments below. We’ll handpick the winner by July 15. The most interesting answer to us must win!

*Open to Luzon viewers only… :)

It’s thanks giving season once again in the US, and not everyone in the world get a chance to enjoy it. It’s just lately that more and more people in any part of the world may take advantage of the day, because lots of items from apparels to electronics drop their prices, not only in local shops in the states, but also in so many online stores.
