My Winning “Essay”
Written on July 2, 2006 – 6:43 pm | by avenue299
Reading has been my favourite past time for a long time. I read before I sleep. Just like the feeling of pushing my eyes to the limit for better sleep after that. Haha! Mental and physically torture!!! Arghhhh!!!
I like reading but I also like writing. The latest published "article" I wrote was the letter to Men’s Health editor. Proud for being noticed! Haha! Below are the original essay to the editor and also the published one by the editor. Enjoy spotting the differences.
Dear MH Editor,
It’s been a great and enjoyable time reading MH since day one. Every issue of the month, the most awaited page for me is “The Guy List”. I’ve really enjoy noticing the ever true points high-lighted in all those lists since the first issue, for example “20 Things You Shouldn’t Tell Your Girlfriend” and the latest one “19 Signs You’re Wasting Your Time”.
The latest issue (May 2006) which comes with an additional upside-down part called “Guide To Style” is indeed one of my favourite one. The “11-Steps Fashion Checklist” is another guide book for me in preparing myself going out for work… and also party! Great job!!!
From issue to issue, there are more promotional contests lately. It indicates that the marketing and A&P teams are working very hard to give us (the readers of course!) the best you guys can offer! Keep it up guys!
Another article I would like to specially mention here is the “bird flu” article. It really gives us a VERY clear picture that bird flu does not start overnight. I’m really grateful to have read it in MH. I just can’t wait for the coming issue of MH wanting to know what kind of issue you guys will offer next. Please don’t let us down, ok? J
Anyway, it’s been a very wonderful being a MH reader. Thank you very much for sharing all the knowledge and information with us, guys! I know you guys can go further!

After waiting for one whole month, Blu Inc Media has finally sent a letter of notification of my winning and the prize that I’ve won is a Lab Series, Skincare for Men AB Rescue Body Sculpting Gel 200ml worth RM125. I fancied a bottle of EDT more than this. But whatever it is, I will cherish it!
