Last week, much to my surprise, I saw the below on FB.
The Winner of this week Giveaway #3 is.... ♥ ♥ ♥
Esther Ng, Congratulations!! The winner will be able to get our gorgeous Classic Fitted Dress. Esther, if you're seeing this please contact us asap!
It is a nice feeling to win freebies, especially nice stuff!
Material is really good and dress is pweetyy!!
Makes me all warm and fuzzy that even a normal, average girl like me, can win. I used to get all pessimistic on how I never win prizes, eventually giving up joining anything. But last year, I saw on tivo on contests and how these few people interviewed won lots of prizes cause they persevered. They kept joining contests after contests. Not only did they win freebies, they also won cash prizes!
It encouraged me to try. I started joining competitions again. And it is true. If you join 10 or 20 or 30 competitions, you're bound to win something BUT if you don't try at all, you don't even stand a chance.
Last year, I won movie tickets a couple of times in Australia and Malaysia, Jenny Sun's competition though my prize went missing somewhere in the post:( and even a gift pack from a blogger! This year, I won two free tickets to watch 'Bridesmaids' (when I was back in Malaysia in September), won this dress above, won two free tickets to watch the advance screening of 'Warrior', amongst other freebies that have slipped my mind.
So my message is, persevere, join as many contests as you can get your hands on. I usually don't join those that require one to complete slogans 'cause I suck at those, then again, I join that occasionally to challenge myself. If you win something, good for you, if you don't, it is NOT then end of the world.
