Handy Manny

As some of you know, one of my favourite TV shows is Handy Manny. Haha. It's about a repairman called Manny who lives in Sheet Rock Hills and his talking tools. I watch it everyday at 11am and 2.30pm on Playhouse Disney. Why do I still watch cartoons although I am already 17? Correction. I don't still watch cartoons. I never got the chance to watch cartoons when I was younger. There's a difference. Hehe. So if you think I'm childish, cut me some slack lah. I never got a proper childhood. Lol.

Anyway, in the month of September, Playhouse Disney held a contest. All you have to do is watch the new episodes and answer a simple question. So of course I was totally excited about it and wanted to win. But there was a problem. I was not between the age of 2 to 7 years. I was born 10 years too early. Lol. However, that did not stop me. I entered the contest anyway. And lo and behold, I was one of the winners! Hahaha. Seriously, I was so happy. Then I waited for my prize to be mailed to me. I waited and waited... and waited. But I didn't get any call informing me that I won or anything of the sort. So I kinda gave up hope lah. Takpe lah. Considering I shouldn't've won it in the first place. Hehe.

But but, today I came home from school. Then Jo called me over and pointed at a Longchamp box. Perasan as I am, I was like, "Is that for me? A handbag? I don't really want a Longchamp bag." Then he opened it and I saw this big brown envelope with my name on it and a postage stamp from Singapore. Below it was some other postage thingy that said: "Towel, bath gel." And then I SCREAMED. For joy. Hahaha. And then I kept shouting in glee, "Handy Manny! Handy Manny!" Man, I have never screamed for joy like this since Dad bought me a water heater for my PMR results. Lol.

So I won a Handy Manny towel and a Flicker bath gel. (Flicker is one of the tools, he's a flashlight.) Oh yeah, in the big brown envelope was a note that read:

Nice work there Manda ... now you've got yourself some Handy Manny bath tools too. Don't know if you noticed this, but somehow your 2 big joyous moments find themselves placed in the bath room. ;) Enjoy!
