OMG! Wasn't that a crazy week?!?!

About a week ago, I announced that I was celebrating this blog's FIRST anniversary by holding an online contest. I even made a little video for the announcement, that highlights some of the more interesting blog posts here.

Ok ok, enough with the talking. I know what you're here for. ;P

You wanna know if you're ONE of the winners, right?!?!?!

First of all, I want to say that ALL OF YOU did an amazing job! The questions started out easy and as promised, it got more and more difficult with each passing day. 

The last six questions, that took place from Friday, 27th May 2011, to Sunday, 29th May 2011, were especially tough! And my Facebook, Twitter and even this site's chatbox were full of moaning and begging of clues!

LOL! But the one awesome thing was that everyone had FUN, including me! Which is the main point of this game. :)

Ok ok, I'll stop yakking now and get on with it ok?

CONGRATULATIONS!

All of you had played a real good game! I said before that only TWO people had gotten 10 out of 10 right, and they are Rina Red and Jessie Pang! So, I gotta salute these two.

There were only six people who came in closely behind them with 9 out of 10. But I only had 3 spaces left for the winners, so I did a drawing at Random.org. And Dini Suhaimi, Diyana Suhaimi and Diana Hassim were the lucky ladies whose names were drawn.

If you'd like to check if you are one of the entrants who were put in the drawing, click HERE and follow the instructions.

And I'm not going to forget the other participants too! Although I don't have enough prizes to go around, I'd really like to thank you guys for participating and being such good sports about it!

I know you guys probably got a hell of a headache and 'pening'-ness searching for the answers, but you have to pat yourself at the back for sticking it through!

As for the Bonus Prizes winners, I have to admit that I'm having a hard time choosing from all the entries! There were thirteen entries that were submitted and they're all so good, honest and heartfelt.

So, please forgive me for taking a little bit more time selecting the winners. I won't take too long though, so don't despair!

Well, that's all for now. I want to say 'Thank you' again, but I know I said that so many times already.

Winners, I'll be in touch. ;) 

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO ORCHID ROW!!!

Orchid Row was launched one year ago, with its first blog post posted on 30th of April, 2010. Since that lousy first blog post, Orchid Row has had thousands and thousands of visitors, featured on a few websites, talked on UBDfm and so on. What else is in store for Orchid Row? :) 

I wanna hear from you.

Err, why is there a wall? There's supposed to be a locked door here!

Hmm, must've gotten lost. Luckily, I left a trail of bread crumbs to the door. 

Instructions

• These words are pink and underlined (links).
• Click on the brick wall, and start finding the first word.
