Raffi's Second Contest!

September has promptly shown itself out the door, and October has wiped it's feet on the doormat, which can only mean one thing.  It's contest time!  After my first successful contest, I was glad to see how many people participated.

This time around, I want the contest to be something more challenging then just a raffle.  In honor of Takahashi Ai's graduation, I want to see some sort of graphic made in her honor.  It can be any size you choose (not too big please), and using any picture(s) of Aichan you can find.  You can even draw if you want to.  Anything really, just be creative, and think of Aichan!

Here's what you all will be playing for:

A Maji Desu Ka Ska Regular Edition CD!

Deadline is October 5th at 9:00PM PST! Good Luck!

Ai no Dangan GETS + Contest Winner

First off I wanted to start by saying that by default, the new winner of the contest; by sheer luck, would happen to be BleachGal101.  Congratulations!  I could tell how badly you wanted the item, and even by random selection, you still won! Please e-mail me at HelloRaffi@gmail.com with shipping info, and i'll get your Maasa card shipped asap!

On another note, I finally received my package from HSU with my Ai no Dangan goods.  It's not a whole lot, but it's a couple of things that I love.  Here's what the contents of my package were:

Risako 2L photoset

Maasa 2L photoset (sorry, this ones mine!)

And the catch of the day: Ai no Dangan shirt

front                                                         back

I loved the look of the photosets and especially the shirt, so I had to buy it.  Besides, Ai no Dangan was a great single.  If you like goods like these, please visit HelloStoreUSA via the link on the right side of this page!

I Love S/mileage

Lately I've gotten really into S/mileage.  I think that it was Uchouten Love that made me really fall for them.  It's my favorite single of theirs to date, and it may be one of my favorite singles of H!P in 2011.  That means a lot!  I'm trying to complete my S/mileage CD discography now.

It's one of my favorite looks for S/mileage, even though the Black Ver for Koi ni Booing Buu didn't match one bit to the song.  It might have something to do with the lyrics, but I'm not certain about that.  Oh well.  Maybe Tsunku had a very high running fever that week (lol).

Side Note: The winner of my first contest [Lily] has yet to contact me after almost 9 days.  Lily if you're reading this, please contact me ASAP at helloraffi@gmail.com.  If I don't hear anything by Friday the 16th, i'm going to redraw a winner from the original list of participants.

And the winner is...

So my first contest has come to an end, and I have chosen a winner!  I first wanted to say thank you to everyone who participated.  I was so happy to see so many people participate!

I also want to say that I almost didn't want to hold this contest, because I knew that I couldn't give a prize to everyone.  If I had 30 copies of this card, I would love to share them with everyone! Lol.  But there had to be only one winner.  I used an iPhone app to randomly generate the winners name for me.

That person name is Lily! Congratulations!

E-mail me at helloraffi@gmail.com, with your name and address, and i'll send you your prize straight away.

For those of you who didn't win, better luck next time!  Since I got such great participation in my first contest, be sure to see more in the future.

Raffi's First Contest!

To say thank you to everyone who has supported my blog, and for sticking around through all of my posts and lame jokes, I decided I wanted to host a small giveaway!  It's nothing huge, but it's a token of appreciation.

This contest is really simple.  Rather, it's a raffle.  There aren't any special instructions.  All you need to do to be entered into this contest is to simply leave a comment on this post.  A simple "I'm in!" would be good enough.

Here's what you all will be playing for:

A beautiful mint-condition Sudou Maasa L-sized photocard from the Winter 2011 Shinsen Matsuri Concert Tour.

All you need to do is leave me a comment below, and i'll draw a name out of  hat, or something similar in order to be completely random.  I'm closing this contest on Monday, September 5th at 9:00pm PST.  You guys have 5 days to leave me a comment!  Sounds simple enough right?

If this raffle goes well, and I get enough participants, expect to see more contests with better prizes in the future!
