Filipina Soul give-away: Maxtor OneTouch 4 Mini

May 2, 2006 was the first day I wrote for Filipina Soul, and my first foray into blogging. I can’t believe it’s already (only?) been two years! Filipina Soul wouldn’t have been a success, and a fun place to blog if it weren’t for our readers – YOU. Thank you for reading, following, and interacting with us.

But the thing with me is… I totally forgot about this milestone! If I hadn’t seen Maricar’s post at Keeping the Castle, this whole month would have passed. Is my memory crashing?! YIKKS!

So, in celebration of my 2nd blogging anniversary, and in honor of “memory” … I’m giving away a Maxtor One Touch 4 Mini (120GB)! One-Touch-4-Mini-Left

From music to family photos, videos and work files, everyone has a lot of meaningful digital content they need to protect and the Seagate Maxtor One Touch 4 Mini will be perfect for you.

  • Full-featured, portable backup and storage solution for complete recovery of your PC hard drive’s contents in case of a system crash or virus;
  • Easily moving data between home and office and automatically syncing all your files with multiple computers and having different sync paths to keep the files organized according to system
  • Perfect for: Mobile warriors, students and creative professionals who take their work with them

How to join?

  1. Click on our collection of My Faves posts. Which is your favorite? Tell me in the comments, and that will be your entry.
  2. Additional entry will be given to those who link this contest post on their site!

  4. It’s open to residents of the US only. Now, if you have a blog, do post your URL as well, as I love to visit my readers’ sites and catch a conversation.

    I have to be honest — of all of them, the one that really reached out and touched me, actually grabbed me and ~squeezed~, was “the proper way of eating balut (fertilized duck egg)”… I’m going to remember that one for a lonnnng time —
    “Green” was only the beginning of the colors involved.

    The proper way of eating ‘Balut’ (Fertilized Duck Eggs). I did not know of this practice. I can understand the nutritious value of Balut but it looks a little gross.

    “An Honest Look at Poverty and Paradise in the Philippines”

    I think it is important to look at the contrasts that exist within a country, to take stock of the vast imbalances and then do what we can, where we can to even the playing field.

    I enjoyed reading “The unique history of the Barong Tagalog: a symbol of colonial resistance.” I didn’t know the history of this traditional dress, and I found the story and the strength of the Filipino people very inspiring. Thank you for sharing it with us!
