Somebody Loves Boy Kuripot

Saturday, June 06, 2009 dfg 10 Comments

Yes! Somebody loves Boy Kuripot! In my post last week "Do you Love me?" I told you guys how you can show me. To tell you the truth, I'm not earning a lot from this blog as I thought I would. But seeing the growing number of readers/subscribers that showed interest in this blog kept me focused. A couple of days ago I opened an email from one of my readers with the subject line "Do you Love me? / yes i do"



I really do not know how I stumbled on the website boy-kuripot.blogspot.com. I was web-surfing, like everyday, and then I saw this article on the web entitled “the couple who won everything”. Curiosity does not always eats the cat; it begets fun and prices.

Boy kuripot blogspot is a blog site I stumbled in the web and boy was I very happy with this stumble rather than this Katrina Halili and Dr. Hayden Kho scandal, poor people. Now the congress is doing an investigation about it? Am I correct about this? That just proves poor tastes on the part of government officials with specifics to certain senator/s instead of debating on societal issues they are pursuing issues on notoriety which is completely irrelevant to the business of the state. I got sidetracked there. Phew the web can mean a lot to anybody.

Every contest posted by “boy kuripot” that I can join within my physical reach and ability as I am a heart patient diagnosed now with cardiomyopathy (my life story is another story) I am there except those with specifics to age and physical requirements.

You see, my activities are confined within the comforts of my room and everything within my reach. Dah, I got a dying heart. That sounds lyrical but my physiology dictates specifics. You can check out what cardiomyopathy as heart disease is nothing new to me as I was diagnosed with valvular heart disease since age 24 and underwent the knife for open-heart surgery for valvular removal and replacement with prosthetic valve mine is branded bjork-shiley mechanical valve. My so called life is a medical odyssey . Yap I underwent the process of “why God, why me, why this fate?” I am over it now and come to terms with my fate and life.

My illness will not take away from me sunny attitude or fun outlook in life. I always look at the sunrise and knows that sunset will happen but while waiting I will not let the sun go down on me. I will ride the rainbows and splash its colors. “Boy-kuripot” just did that to me. I am always checking my mailbox for boy-kuripot notices as I check how the market is doing. Many, many thanks boy-kuripot; you have no face, no physical identity more than the contest and the prices it generates you have given some energy push or some kind of inertia, simply fun, to my existence. And through you I got a free book from Powerbooks bookstore from their “inspired writing contest”. The free book from powerbooks is “Shopaholic & Baby” by Sophie Kinsella. It was my first venture in ‘boy-kuripot” alarms. I wouldn’t know about the powerbooks contest if not through you.

Boy kuripot is free and fun. Everyone wins here. Boy kuripot gives good notices one that helps people like me, all pinoys. Why would I subscribe and waste my time reading about Katrina and Dr. Hayden issues? I would rather spend my time joining contest which boy-kuripot tells me. You have no face. I only know you as boy kuripot via your site http://boy-kuripot.blogspot.com. I do not know why you do what you do but you inspire many by telling what contest or promotions we can avail or join and you do not get a penny from us, at all. I am truly grateful to you, profoundly. You are astonishing for you created a site and keeps us inform about contest we can join with no strings attached. You do not get even a centavo from me. I want to send you a book or bouquet of roses but I do not know where and to whom. So I am sending this via the websites I joined. Now, I can only ask God that May Angels watch over you all the time and keep you safe and free from any harm. Many, many thank you Boy-Kuripot. And by the way, I do love you.

love

always

julie


Thank you for the email Julie. Never did it cross my mind that my blog could make such a big difference in somebody's life. Just knowing that it made a difference in yours makes me feel that I'm actually doing something worthwhile. By the way, I didn't reply to your email because I wanted to surprise you. Hope I made your day again!


Another reader emailed me this:

I shared my love and registered at EYP. I hope you win the MAC pro. So far I have won a number of prizes because of your ads like the one from PEP for their Mother's day promo and another one from Powerbooks facebook fan page. More power to your advocacy and I'm pretty sure you deserve this prize.

And here are some blogs that spread the good word on me. Many thanks to you guys! (Do let me know if I left you out so I can add you here)

I have seen the TV commercial for this contest a few months back. I guess Animetric somehow managed to get the mechanics of the contest so here it is. Datu Puti is looking for a TV commercial model for their product though a Mukhasim Facetival Contest (clever title right?). The person who holds the most maasim (sour) face gets a P100,000 CASH aside from being Datu Puti's TV commercial model. All you need to join is MMS your Mukhasim face by June 15, 2009.
