GIVEAWAY ALERT! The Average Jane's Big Move Back Home (Plus a Giveaway, Too)!

Well, we've finally done it.  We've made the big move back to the Philippines!  So expect my future posts to be reverting back to anything RP-located (will come in a few months, though, as I still have a number of backlogs about Singapore to contend to).

While we're talking about transitions, I've also noticed that it's been some time since I last hosted a blog giveaway (more than a year to be exact).  So I think it's high time to have one again, don't you think?

So for this giveaway, here's what I'll be raffling off...

PR: OFW Remittances at an All-time High: Social Remittances as New Currency from Global Pinoys

Remittances from Filipinos working overseas are at an all-time high.  And no, it’s not just because they’re sending back US dollars, Saudi Riyals, Euros or Japanese Yen; but because our modern-day heroes are sending back what’s known as social remittances.

Announcing the Winner of the "Have an Action-packed LazerXtreme Experience" Giveaway!

First of all, I'd like to thank you all again for joining my giveaway.  J

And after checking and tallying the results, I am pleased to announce that the winner of a pair of tickets to LazerXtreme is...

The Endless PossibiliTEAs of Lipton

I've never been much of a hot tea drinker.  Oh sure, I love iced teas but I consider them to be in a different league.  Hot tea drinks for me connote British afternoons and grass pasture infused with whatever fruit there is (with the taste that still was reminiscent of grass.  Yuck!  No offense meant to the millions of tea aficionados the world over.)  L

And so it was with great trepidation that I reluctantly accepted the conction prepared by the kind kuyas of the Lipton tea booth at Blogapalooza (guess they just didn't know what they were getting themselves into.  Hehehe!)  ☺

GIVEAWAY ALERT: Polecats Manila Shows How Flexible They Can Be

It's not everyday that you meet people with the flexibility and the grace to do this...

Pole dancing is definitely one of the newest fitness craze to hit the Metro.  Not only does it develop your flexibility and stamina, it's also a very good form of exercise and I'm sure your man wouldn't mind watching you practice to your heart's content (*wink* *wink*)  ☺

Seriously though, this new form of exercise is empowering women, and even men, of all ages and sizes building up that sensual confidence that we know everyone possesses.  And this is what the people behind Polecats Manila aim to do.
