Buti na lang I remembered that Shangrila Mall has a condominium raffle contest. I thought I lost the receipt when I purchased Oyen’s dress last December.
I went back to Shang yesterday afternoon on my way home. I claimed the raffle stubs, abah, who doesn’t want to win a condo?
Good luck to me.
Ano kaya, luma na kaya yung condo? Kasi Edmund’s friend won the Mercedes Benz raffle last year. It’s supposed to be brand new but it already had a 4,000 kilometer mileage. Gamit na! Ang labo ano?
I only got 4 pieces of stubs instead of 5. Kasi 2,350 dapat 2,500 / raffle. Ang konti naman. Pero if the condo is meant for me, all I need is one lucky raffle stub. The bad thing is there is no consolation prizes.
I filled out the stubs right there kasi I might lose pa the tickets if I bring them home.
In that short amount of time I stood there filling out the stubs, I could already write a Kenkoy comics inspired by the people who approached the information counter to ask for what else? Information.

I wonder if the recepcionist find this everyday interaction amusing at all. Baka wala ng pasensya kung araw araw ganito ang tanong at hirit. Hehehehe
