I don't usually win at raffles or contests. When my best friend ask me to join this photo contest with the theme "Life with metal" ( she is the Country marketing manager of Flash Philippines) I took several photos with the theme and just when I was passing my aunt doing her usual chores of sewing I took her photo and upload as an entry. I got a few likes and there was one comment from another contestant that among the photos I uploaded he likes the "Sastre" the most ( Sastre being the local term for seamstress or dressmaker)
And then a few weeks back my best friend said that among the shortlisted a winner will be chosen. She told me to start campaigning so my photo will have lots of likes in FB and Instagram. I didn't really thought about it anymore. Considering that she's connected with Flash Philippines she made sure that she was not part of those who will be judging or selecting the winners. And then a few days ago they've made their selection. She said that you know how your photo come close to home and touching and how emo most of us can be. She came clean with her boss from marketing that the chosen photo was of her best friend. And that my photo got most of the votes and in case they could give the prize to the next winner. That's the thing I admire most about her, her integrity to her job. then yesterday I was informed I won the latest phone. I believed I deserved it .she was instrumental in making me join however somebody else's judged it...So here goes my new Flash 2
