Ipad Queen

LATE POST WARNING: I WON THIS  MARCH 27, 2012

During SXSW2012  I pretty much signed up for everything because:

1. I like to party 2.) I like to win... in that order.

I was at work working on something random when I received an email from Gavin & the Barupay Team. I have always thought that the winning wasn't real, that it was for "other people." Well I became the other people! the lucky people, and it feels GREAT to be on the winning side. 

"Hi Edria,

Thanks again for your interest in BaruPay and we hope you enjoyed the SXSW events and parties.

Well, we're pleased to inform you that you are the winner of the iPad-II.  Yay!  :-)"






I received my IPAD II on March 31, 2012. I took one of my closest friends Pete. It was a fun day! I WON I WON I WON... To be honest with you at first I didn't think I deserved something so nice.






I looked so happy didn't I.

Well two months after I received my Ipad I was getting out of my car when something startled me. There was a guy sleeping in his car. I FREAKED OUT and dropped my bag. My ipad was in it. Why was he sleeping in his car?  I'm always curious as to that.

I have been really disappointed in myself that I dropped it but what can you do? It is still functional.

Unfortunantly I didn't have Apple + Care because I didn't know about that.
So here I am with a beautiful item which is somewhat damaged.

I'm just grateful for the win. I'm a techy so I LOVE LOVE LOVE new items and learning how they function. Here I was worried so much about getting stolen but it got damaged instead that should have been my true worry. It has a function on it from icloud that tells me where it is at all times.


So still grateful but hoping I can get it fixed soon.

The so so "Truly Awesome Homestyle Chocolate Chip Cookies

So much has been going on so I haven't written in a few months. So here is the skinny. I found this awesome website http://www.bzzagent.com/. They have these campaigns where they send you items to try. I got these in the mail tonight and decided to try them straight out of the box.. YUCK!.. they were nasty cold, hard and tasted like butter cardboard. I learned quickly they are best popped in the microwave for 30 seconds with some vanilla ice cream. This makes for a warm chewy cookie.
