Congratulations! You have won a set of 3 VIP tickets to Dora the Explorer LIVE! Dora's Pirate Adventure - reads the email subject line.
Our whole family was so thrilled that all the effort paid off.
We were asked, why try so hard at this online voting contest, when one could actually purchase the tickets from SISTIC.
Well the answers are as follows:
- Mummy & Daddy belonged to the typical sandwiched generation, with higher priority financial obligations to fulfill, thus creative effort had to be channel to get things on our wish-list.
- This is not a lucky draw, where luck plays a huge part in the possibility of winning, this is a voting contest.
- It is an attitude of trying our best. Then even if we do not win, we lose knowing we tried our best.
- Last but not least, there is an exclusive Meet & Greet Session before the show for the winners.
To all of you out there who voted for us, who helped us lobby for votes. If you voted, thank you so much once again. If you felt irritated by our constant nags, we offer our sincere apologies.
Dora, here we come!
PS:
To Princess Chelsea, this is Mummy’s way of compensating you; you waited with Mummy patiently for the owner of the lost phone we found; only to discover that because of the wait, we missed a huge portion of the free Dora Show at United Sq.
You had difficulties holding back your tears, and that was the first time you were introduced to the meaning of the word ‘disappointed’.
