Maybe not my angel. Pero definitely an angel as I always knew. What I'm about to have, won't be mine if not for you.

This is not to sound materialistic. Nor to downplay every non material thing that you shared with me. For making me happy. Pero I got a bonus from you, something which I have always wanted since high school. Actually yun nga ang gusto ko sanang grad gift sa akin. I so wanted one. And pagdating ng college, I have always wanted this brand.

Everyone else, paki-basa pala ang previous blog ko na "In a manila envelope" just to see how magical this is.

So many people have told me about "Law of Positive Affirmation" and other similar concepts. (At siyempre ang paborito ng lahat na "Whenever you want something (badly), the universe conspires to help you achieve it (or "get it" in this case)" Yung iisipin mo nang iisipin ang gusto mo at one day if you were positive enough darating yun. Basta hindi mo kokontrahin. (Which is exactly what I want my attitude to be this year)

So eto na. I've been using this Globe service because of someone : ) (Yes you.) Sobrang ilang beses siguro. I knew there was a raffle involved but I wasn't really interested. Kailangan ko lang talaga gamitin yung service na yun.

And then kanina (yes, on the same day I blogged about "In a manila envelope") eto ang nareceive kong text:

Congratulations! You are
one of the winners of the
******* Promo! Pls call (02)
6****** to get information
on how to claim your prize.
Thank you for joining! Per
DTI-NCR#45*7 S'07
From 2*2* (take note: Globe number talaga ito)

I called and tried hiding my excited voice. Kinda half wishing na sana iPod touch or maybe an iPhone. Tapos eto ang spiel sa akin at ang mga sagot ko:

"Congratulations Sir. Blah blah blah blah. Apple MacBook."
"I'm sorry."
"Sir, you won an Apple Macbook"
"How do I claim that?"
"Blah blah blah blah."
"Ano ulit yung napanalunan ko?"
"Apple Macbook sir."
"Ok.Thanks"
"Congratulations again sir."

So maybe hindi lang yung dahilan kung bakit na-meet kita. Pero sobrang ok na sa akin 'to. Look at the bright side daw. This is definitely part of that bright side. Hey, you should smile. I even went sa inyo. Magkano 'to sa market? I dunno. Around 60thou siguro or 70thou. It's like you handing me that amount of money. Plus of course, I will never be the same because of you : ) Again, MacBook. Binigyan mo ako ng MacBook.

So thank you. And sorry pala. I need to understand why things are happening.
Here's one answer I guess. : )
