Sinjin’s House is the Readers’ Choice!

Last night, the Philippine Blog Awards – Visayas was held at the Sinulog Ballrooms 3-4 of Cebu’s premier sports club, the City Sports Club Cebu (CSCC) and I am so delighted to inform all of you that this blog, Sinjin’s House, won the PBA Readers’ Choice Award – Visayas (courtesy of Chikka.com)! We did it guys!

For the record, I voted for Sinjin’s House too. In fact, I spent all of my P800 load just to vote for Sinjin’s House. (P2.50/text * 3 votes = 960). But then, 960 is just like about 10% of the total votes garnered – 9,000++ which means that people other than myself also spent their time and money to vote… So, I’d like to take this opportunity to thank a lot of people:

- The Lord God Almighty for His never-ending outpour of blessings and guidance! Without Him, all these will never be possible. All praise and honor goes to You! Thy will be done.

- The Philippine Blog Awards Team for reaching out to the whole country! You rock!

- My family for the support, especially to dad, for the P500 load, haha! I love you all!

- Doc Noel and Kuya Jedi, for without you, I won’t be inspired to be serious about blogging.

- My Cebu Bloggers Society family for the undying support. Without you guys, I won’t be able to penetrate the blogosphere. I’d also like to especially thank Atty. Ethelbert, Doyz, Timoy, Tiborsho, Zyza, Jerry and Miong. To my co-nominees: Bryan, McBilly, Kevin and Sir Zigfred, my greatest respect goes to all of you.

- My SkyscraperCity family for your usual support. I’d like to especially thank KevinB, Roy, Markii, Slerz, Jerick, Ate Cham, Igan, Doc Jeff, Henz and Jed. And congratulations to Chymera for winning in the Best Visayas Locale Blog category.

- My Informatics family, especially to Ms. Jhon, Cams and Robert.

- My USC-NC family, especially to Keno for the great campaign (thank you to all the girl friends of Keno for voting!), Kim, Kenneth and Elbien!

- Ate Rons of the Niners.

- Marco Sindiong of Ogilvy.

- All the Sun Cellular subscribers who wanted to vote but couldn’t.

- My Twitter followers, Plurk, Facebook, Multiply friends who retwitted, replurked, campaigned in their status messages and voted! Thank you so much!

- The silent followers of my blogs! I was so shocked and deeply touched when at least 15 different numbers and YM handles messaged me saying that they voted for me. Thank you so much guys! You made me realize that it would be an insult to be too humble and say that I have no followers. Now, I am very proud to say that I have few but steady followers, and I will do all that I can to improve my blogs for you guys!

- To everyone who voted for me whose names aren’t here. Guys, you know who you are! Thank you so much for all the support! To those who voted once, and once only, you indeed proved that “Every vote counts!” I hope I didn’t forget to mention anyone here and if I did, please don’t hesitate to message me and call my attention so that I could include you and recognize you here.

A big, BIG, BIG Thank You to you!

But wait, there’s more! Sinjin’s House was also chosen as a member of the Globe Tattoo-PBA Digital Tribe for Visayas!

According to Mr. Juned, “Congratulations! Based on your body of work and influence in your chosen niche in the Web Community, you have been recommended, selected and chosen as member of the Globe-PBA Digital Tribe for the Visayas.”

Yey! Weeeeeeeee. Once again, thank you to the PBA team and to everyone for the support! I can’t thank you guys enough. Cheers!
