Blog giveaways/contests - NOW vs THEN

Salam n hye everyone~!!

I've been a blogger since August 2010. But yeah, as most of you may not know, this is my second blog as my old one is inaccessible, huhu~... T_T Anyway, so since I've started being a blogger, I have participated in many giveaways/contests organised by other bloggers.

haha... XD random pic

The giveaways/contests back then were very much different from nowadays. So, here I've made a list to compare them:

Back then:
* the terms & conditions of the contests were usually very simple
* the prizes were often sponsored by the organiser himself/herself, but not very much in quantity
* participants had the option of following the organiser's blog
* some contests were interesting as they involved participants to post pics that are required according the the contest's theme

Nowadays:
* the terms & conditions have grown very, very long
* the prizes are mostly sponsored by other people, and there's a long list of them~.. ^_^
* participants have to (sometimes compulsory) follow the blogs/Facebook pages/Twitter/Instagram of the organiser & the sponsors as well

Well...I could only come up wif these differences. But on the bright side, I still enjoy joining contests/giveaways, when I don't have any idea what to post about, hihi~... :3

Thanks for reading & happy blogging~!! ^x^

1st November win - it's a blessful Friday~~!!

Salam n hye everyone~!!

I used to join lots of online giveaways & contests in the past but now, I only attend to that "hobby" whenever I'm free & in the mood.

Recently I've joined some giveaways on the other blog. And alhamdulillah, today I found out that I won in a giveaway segment by Eymasu.

won: handmade pou keychain

this is what I'll be getting, hihi~...

The last time I won anything was in July, I think. But I was too busy to update about that one, hehe.. 

Anyway, thanks so much to Eymasu for choosing me as one of the winners. It's a blessful Friday, plus it's the 1st day of November too. Guess I was a bit lucky, hihi~... ^_^

Thanks for reading & happy blogging~!! ^_^
