You know what’s funny?
I am running a series of simple-to-play and fun contests on the official Pink for October website, but why aren’t YOU participating? We are giving away a lot of attractive prizes throughout the month, plus, it’s for a good cause! Did you know that by participating, you are actually reaching out to your readers and increasing awareness on this deadly but preventable disease? :D
So let me tell you more about the contests that I’m running:
Every Monday and Thursday, I will announce a word, and you are supposed to find or take a picture that best describes that word and blog about it. After that, you should drop by and leave me a comment and link on the post. It’s that easy! On Oct 31st, I will randomly pick a lucky winner from all those who leave me a comment. Which means that the more you play, the higher your chances are of winning something :D
On top of that, there are also those month-long contests. You could either share a breast cancer related true story, or you could design a Pink for October button/banner/badge, and and on Oct 31st, I will randomly pick a winner.
Seriously, MY CONTESTS are definitely easier than those that ask you to write a 5000-word essay about your first love, or why you like to watch rainbows, no?
Come and join us! :vodka:
Alright, I have just kick-started the first of 12 contests that will be held on the official Pink for October website.
Head on over now and check it out. Better still, subscribe to the Pink for October feed to avoid missing any updates and contests :D
So far, a total of 352 sites/blogs have signed up to go pink in support of the Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Are you one of them?
It’s THAT time of the year now! If you haven’t gone pink, now’s the best time to do it :D
If your friends will laugh at you for turning your blog pink despite being a boy/gentleman, tell them that it’s for a wonderful cause — a cause that everybody who has a Mum, a grandmother, a sister, a girlfriend, a wife, a friend, a colleague or a neighbour should be concerned about.
For your information, I will be running a super-fun a la photo hunt contest on the official Pink for October website throughout the month. It is a very simple and flexible contest, and is aimed at getting more people involved in the Breast Cancer Awareness Month, as well as learning something new each day :D
Also, check out our list of sponsors who have so generously offered some pretty and unique prizes for the contest. Without our sponsors, there wouldn’t be a contest.
That said, I will not be writing about breast cancer here, but if you’d like to read some of the stuff that I have written in the last 2 years, here they are:

I’ve gone pink. Have you? It’s easy, I swear :secret:
