The talent acquisition team in our company has these gimiks to entice us employees to send out referrals to them. Aside from getting a nice sum of money when your referral is a success, they also have a raffle giveaway to those who were successful in their referrals.
I didn't have one successful referral last year, but a friend of mine who now works in TELUS asked me to refer someone, and tag it under my name. Lo and behold, she got in and my friend and I split the referral fee. Also, since technically I had one successful referral, I was part of the raffle draw held last January 14.
Surprise surprise - I won an IPOD shuffle.

I've been eyeing this coat from Zara for a couple of weeks now. Initially priced at 6450, it was marked down to 5950. Still too expensive. So I didn't buy it. A couple of weeks later, Zara marked down their items even more, so when I went to checked it out, it's just now 2990!. And there's only one Small size left, so i decided to get it! It may get marked down further by the end of the year, but I don't want to risk it, my size is hard to find. Anyway, another 3k down the drain, but I love it! I can't wear it here, but since I go to Canada anyway, I can finally have a more "formal" jacket to wear there instead of my usual sports jacket!

Yesterday was our office department's 2010 Awards and Recognition Event. We decided to make it a party/event instead of just an office "meeting" to make it more fun! I also volunteered to be part of the organizing committee and to be the co-host of the event. The games we prepared were similar to the game show Minute to Win It. Very simple games, but fun! Gasgas na yung mga pinoy henyo games and charades!!
And so far, I heard good feedback that they enjoyed the event. It's probably one of the most memorable events we had so far. (Patting myself in the back now.)
Part of the event, we had 5 raffle draws to give away. And I don't know what God is telling me, but I got the third prize!! Magic Sing! Can you believe it? I don't win in raffles but two in a row? Unbelievable!
Not only that, I got a 2000 pesos electronic gift card, plus our team got a 5000 pesos worth gcs!! Blessings indeed! Now I will go to church later to thank Him up there for all these kind and wonderful blessings he's been showering me with.
IPOD Touch
My next materialistic task is to get that new IPOD touch replacement I've been clamoring for.
See, materialistic me is very very happy.
