Lucky Me

Sometime this week, I received a notice declaring that I'd won a raffle. I was thrilled. No, this is not what you think. This is legitimate. After all, I did join the raffle. A purchase qualified me for a raffle ticket. I entered my details and put it in the dropbox about a month or two ago.

When I got home today, this was what greeted me.


I plan to use it this Sunday when a favorite aunt celebrates her birthday.

My friend Pink also won a camera in another raffle and is thinking of selling hers. I, on the other hand, am keeping this. As a souvenir of my luck. And because my point and shoot camera is a hand me down and 5 years old.

Zara thinks that my winning is not entirely good news. She says people who win in raffles are unlucky in matters of the heart.

What do you think?

Wow, swerte mo naman. Hmm, I don't think Zara's observation is entirely true. I won an Ipod last year and I think I'm lucky din naman in matters of the heart...andyan pa asawa ko eh..hehehe :D

I don't know! I've never won a raffle and I don't have anyone either :P

PS Lucky you!!!

Kreez said...

Wow, congrats! Nah, I don't that you'll be unlucky in matters of the heart, contradictory to that,i actually believe that when it rains it pours so luck on matters of the heart my shower next :-)

Nice prize! Well, here's a thought, I've never won a raffle and I'm unlucky in terms of the heart.

wow congratz! lucky lucky you! ;)

Mari said...

You're lucky. Period. :D Nice prize!

maiylah said...

lucky you!!!
congratulations!

no idea about your last question, though (unlucky in matters of the heart) ... for me what's important is that you're content and at peace with yourself. :)

I don't think one's "luck" with winning raffles has any relation to winning hearts.

Congratulations on such a nice prize!

dak said...

im sooo bad with raffles.

Em Dy said...

Cookie, and you won again. I think he's your lucky charm. Di ba you also won a dot com?

Manggy, maybe you haven't joined alot of raffles lang.

Kreez, oo nga no? When it rains, it pours.

Kayni, maybe it's just a matter of timing.

Princess Dyanie, thanks!

Mari, salamat!

Maiylah, I think so too. Actually, I'm happy where I am.

Panaderos, a myth most probably. Urban legend.

Dak, thanks!

Symphony of Love said...

Wow Congrats! I definitely want one of these cameras. You are lucky or maybe you had joined more raffles than most of us : )

monaco said...

How can you be so lucky, Em? I've joined countless raffles and contests but has won nothing to date! I'm kinda jealous. He he.

Congratulations, and I hope your luck rubs off on me (I'm rubbing the screen right now!!).

monaco said...

BTW, that unlucky in love, lucky in money thing, I don't believe it. I'm unlucky both ways!

Heya that is awesome,
I too have one of the Canon Digital Ixus cameras and I honestly could have never been happier with a camera purchase.

They really do take the best shots I have seen on a point and shoot camera.
Congratumalations.
