Last week, I announced the start of a new Rooeh competition. The prize for said contest is an original vector illustration by yours truly. :love:

Now the rules of the contest are simple:

  1. Only one entry per site please, WP does track your IP, so don’t try something sneaky.
  2. Only participants with sites may participate. Freewebs, wordpress.com blogs, and other such free services do count!
  3. If you weren’t present for last week’s blog, simply create your sentence and include it in your comment.

I bet you’re now wondering what the actual contest is. Well, remember that funny little sentence I had everyone create about the little white rabbit, diamond ring, and bridge? Now your task is to think of what those three things might stand for, and write a few sentences about what it says about your future. The most creative response will win the grand prize, and I will have a few runner-up prizes for second and third place.

In case anyone out there is still a bit confused, here’s my example sentence again. I was on a bridge when a white rabbit took my diamond ring and jumped into the river. Now in my opinion, I think the bridge represents my life, the rabbit my bad luck, and the ring an item that I treasure. So in the future I will have a horrible stroke of bad luck which will cause me to lose something very dear to me that I can never reclaim again.

Well… I hope your conclusions won’t be as dark and pessimistic as mine. :-P

Vector Contest! Cont.

Can only make you stronger, right? I guess that is the lesson to be learned, if any at all, in summer school Team Sports I, second session. I didn’t know that a month back when I stood in the four hour long line to sign up for this class that I had doomed myself to a nightmare which includes a torturous daily one and a half mile 20 minute run. Which will be extended to two mile by next, next week. And if that isn’t horrible enough, I have the added burden to find that 25% of my grade relies on this “simple” task, according to the coaches. I guess it wouldn’t be too bad if it weren’t for the added bonus of a dusty track and an unforgiving Texas sun. Oh how I miss the crisp winters up north. Anyhow, besides the pain in my legs and joints, I am having my fair share of fun in summer school. At least I get to see some of my friends that I haven’t talked to in a while. :love:

Lately I’ve been thinking that I should hold a contest on the site for the prize of perhaps a custom vector? :idea: Although… I’m not sure if anyone would be terribly interested in that. But well, its worth a shot.

Oh right, one more thing. See if you can create one sentence using the following: a white rabbit, a diamond ring, and a bridge. It should refer to yourself, meaning you are the main subject. There is a point to this, which I will reveal in my next blog, I promise. :wink:

My example sentence:

I was on a bridge when a white rabbit took my diamond ring and jumped into the river.
