Because Yes, It's Christmas!

bad, bad posture

attended plantation bay's christmas tree lighting party last night. except that we were unable to join the christmas tree lighting because we were stuck in traffic. i didn't know where all those vehicles came from last night, i swear. it's the christmas season traffic, i know! the party was in full swing when we arrived so to the buffet tables we trooped immediately.

halfway through dinner, our account executive L approached our table for some chicka-chicka. then she got my business card because there's a raffle and they're giving away overnight stays. you see, i've never been lucky in these kinds of things. while there are those who never leave raffle events empty-handed, i belong to the unfortunate ones who never win anything. not even minor prizes. but i just gave L my card, it's one silly card anyway. the raffle started and they started calling out winners for overnight stays. i crossed my fingers and whispered, "i wish i'd win an overnight stay too so i can give it to my parents when they're here next week." but of course, after i uttered it, i let it go. then i resumed my tete-a-tete with one of our GMs who attended the party. suddenly, the GM stopped talking and i just heard my name being called out. turned out i won something! but since i was so busy talking, i didn't know what i won exactly! hahahaha. on the way to the stage, i was thinking, perhaps i got a really great prize (like an overnight stay in their posh-est room because usually, they save the best for last? hahaha). but no, it wasn't an overnight stay but it's this grand, super special spa package! whee! never underestimate the power of a whispered wish. :)

i couldn't give the spa package for my mother because she'd be bored by herself. and i couldn't very well afford it if we'll go together. so instead, i'll do this and i'll just treat her to lunch. hahaha.

all in all, it was a fun saturday night. more happy things coming up! :)

hala suya ko! every girl needs a spa experience this month, what with the holiday frenzy coming up.
oh well, like you, i ain't also that lucky with raffles but unlike you, i haven't been able to score a spa package.
i think it's fate's way of telling you to relax and chill out, 'cause from what i've read so far, you certainly deserve it.
enjoy the spa! :D
