1st Prize- P 2,500.00

“Ano? Taga-Cotabato ka? Hindi ba magulo doon?” I was kinda used with these questions after hearing me say where my home province is…I replied, “Yes, I was born and raised in South Cotabato. Hope you can visit my home turf so that you’ll realize why my heart solely belongs to that place”.

2nd Prize- P 1,500.00

Every tourist visiting the town, or even the locals in South Cotabato should have their own, worth-blogging experience in Lake Sebu. Forget going to the metro or some other huge city to do some shopping sprees. The malls in and around the region sell the same stuff, anyway. If you are planning to be visit Lake Sebu anytime soon, try the perfect combination of food+adrenaline (and maybe some sidetrips in the greens) and you have got yourself a holiday that you will never forget!

3rd Prize- P1,000.00

I wonder if Manny Pacquiao could do his training here instead of in baguio and when he refused, then we could invite Antonio Margarito hahahaha he might forget his fight to Manny Paquiao, leave his boxing career and choose to spend his whole life at Lake Sebu, and maybe raise some Tilapia hahahaha I can’t wait to see a punching Tilapia or maybe a punched Tilapia..
