Proud parents of a new iphone

Remember this post? Alex and I decided some time back to take part in the McDonald’s blogging competition to stand to win an iphone. We spent a lot of time thinking about a concept, executing it and then posting it up on the last week of the competition. Within 1-2 hours, he received about 60 comments on his blog. I’m really glad how the video turned out.

Yesterday we found out that we won the competition! We rarely win any competitions, in fact, the last one I remember was winning a nice suite in the Mandarin Oriental years ago. I can’t even really remember what the competition was all about. Some Actor’s Studio thingy… I wrote a slogan and I won. Wow.

So yesterday we won an iphone. So now that we have ONE iphone, the fight for who ACTUALLY owns it starts. :) The idea came from both of us, he acted, I executed it. And of course credit to Joseph who helped as well.

I suppose we’ll have to play scissors paper stones right now.
