The Tale of the Growing Thunderbird Resorts Tshirt

It started after my name was called during a raffle contest at BloggersFest 2011 held at the scenic and prestige Thunderbird Resorts in Angono, Rizal. Together with fellow bloggers and indians – Zenkz, Clutch ,  Pobrengpinoy. and Len (clutch ex-gf) hehe.  We all came to the said event from invites coming from Azrael – a fellow blogger and an event master.

Ok about the growing Thunderbird Resorts shirt. I know your curious now since you have reached this sentence haha! Ok, so I got a Thunderbird Resorts t-shirt from the said raffle and it literally grows bigger in size in just a few hours. Unbelievable isn’t it?!

Ok so your still here and anxious haha!

Here’s why. (tining – tininggggg)

I got the shirt before lunch time. I’ve checked the size and it’s MEDIUM. obviously not fit for my beer-belly me, whattaheck, its free! Then at by mid-afternoon, Pobrengpinoy also won the raffle. He won a t-shirt too, and it’s LARGE! Yup, you’re right! We did swapped our tshirts as his body built was for medium size. Were both happy coz I know now I can now wear the t-shirt, although not snugly fit.

Then the last morphing of the tshirt happened that night hehe. A lady blogger infront of was called down to get her prize. Yes, you got it again! She also won a Thunderbird Resorts t-shirt! As she went back to her seat, just infront of me, I can see her head in frustraton (wobbling left and right). I then hear her say ” The t-shirt is too big for me, huhuhu!”

That’s my cue haha!

I courteuosly asked the lady if she would  like to swap her t-shirt with my t-shirt. And she said yes without hesitation, yipeee!  So  we exchanged tshirts. Now I know I can comfortably wear my tshirt hehe. So that’s the Tale of the Growing Tshirt. Hope you like it. The End.

From our PnSers: Project Camera, we’ve come up with an essay writing contest with the theme “Touching Lives Through Photography”. We picked Casimiro A. Ynares Sr. Memorial National High School in Taytay, Rizal as our pilot school for this project in cooperation with their energetic principal Mrs. Gloria C. Roque.

It was a successful event as we got 7 wonderful essays submitted by bright students who tried their luck.  PnSers members find it hard to vote as all entries are great! The site bandwidth tripled as students and friends poured in to support their classmates. We even got an amazing 100 LIKES on FACEBOOK for that particular thread!

4^th Year Angela Rose Rosales was announced as the winner on this event.  Her prize was a 12 megapixels Polaroid i1237 digital camera,  second placer is Bernard Marvin Quinlat who went home with a 7.1 megapixels Olympus digital camera. All contestants were also awarded with certificates.

Three months after, PnSers Camera Club (PCC) return back to Lualhati ng Maynila (Home For The Aged) Marikina City, to fulfill its promise. That is to give a digital camera for the HFTA staff. To help them capture and document their important activities and also for filing of photos for the elders.

In behalf of our group PnSers and donor Sir Richie, it was only me and fat_joe that went that afternoon of March 31, 2011. The HFTA staff headed by Ma’am Leonila N. Borja we’re very happy upon seeing us. They’ve almost forget about our promise camera and they though we forgot about it too! haha.

It was only a simple turnover cum photo ops ceremony as fat_joe does the shooting with his Fuji HS10. Sir Fat Joe is quite helpful in teaching the basic operation of the camera, as we can sense the enthusiasm and eagerness of Mam Borja. That in just a short period of time, she began taking photos of her staff.
