Personal Note: This is a real cool contest because there are a lot of prizes at stake. Another positive note about this is that online voting is only 10 percent of the criteria. I think is criteria was made to award the more deserving winners in terms of talent and creativity rather than online votes where outcome can be easily manipulated by cheating.
Plus, since Oishi snacks are relatively affordable products, practically anyone can join!
Remember, last day of submission is 12 noon of 27 August 2010.

My Meme Week 5 and WD Phils Contest Submission
I have been quite busy lately with my contest submissions because I had to beat the June 30 deadline for the Western Digital Phils. contest and the Yahoo Meme Week 5 contest.
The theme for the Western Digital (WD) contest was - If your dad was a WD mascot, would he be a Brent, Gus or Blake?
The theme for the Yahoo Meme week 5 contest was about Music - share your thoughts on who will be the next singing sensation, what music is on your current iPod, who's making the beats on the dance floor, a personal audition, etc., it's up to you.
The "up to you" part is very ambiguous so I thought of submitting a song. Besides, making one would probably be the most difficult task one can think of. Take my word for it, making a music recording is harder than doing a video.
For my WD entry, I did a video entry of which WD mascot would best represent my dad. It was quite simple, really. It is just a compilation of old photos with me and my dad. I did not put too much effects on the latter part of the video to emphasize a narration of my personal story with my dad.
For the Yahoo contest, I had to do a lot of last-minute work because I needed a lot of time to study the music software I intended to use for my submission. I wanted to submit a song - complete with music and lyrics for the Yahoo contest.
It took me four days to figure out the basic buttons and functions. I only figured out how to fully utilize the software last Monday night.


Mainit-init pa (as in straight from the oven) is what I could describe my Yahoo entry. Fortunately, I was able to submit before the closing deadline.
I hope my entry could meet the judges expectations because I had to sing the song myself! I admit, I need a lot of practice (and good audio equipment / microphones) if I want to be at par with real singers. I couldn't find anyone else to do this for me because I was already running out of time.
I even did some last-minute video editing on the final hours before the deadline because originally, I intended to submit an audio file only. I just added the video portion on the last day because my friends did not like the idea of submitting an "audio only" entry.
I hope you can support my entry to the WD Phils contest on Facebook by liking my entry (click here to visit)
...and/or my first-ever music creation on the Yahoo Meme Week 5 contest by re-posting my meme (click here to visit)
To those who liked / re-posted on my entries, thanks for all your support!
