Me and The Universe Still Got It!

Pencils of Promise (PoP for short) is A NGO that builds and maintains schools in 3rd world countries. It is an amazing organization. Last Saturday they threw a benefit to help the kids. The benefit was themed. I went as rich. (If you have read my blog you already know this. If you haven't read it yet, you better go back to my first Universe blog.)


The benefit had a karoake band known as the Guitar Villans. They played the live music, and I got the chance to sing with them. I sang "Hit Me With Your Best Shot." I also apparently anounced to the crowd, "I am tone deaf as a mother fucker y'all." Then I sang, and I was tone deaf as a mother fucker! I have provided the youtube link for your entertainment: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h86sQ2_naEY&feature=share


The benefit was also full of raffles and prizes. I chose to buy $20 dollars worth of raffle tickets, and then I placed the raffle tickets in random bowls. When time came for the drawing, I was all ears. You see, I was still all about being on the Universe's side. And the Universe did not let me down. Lots of prizes were given away. But then they got to my number. I had just won 2 tickets to the Avalanche Hockey game. The prize also included a Zamboni ride during the second period!!! This was not only amazing, it was awesome! I will be participating in all this excitement tomorrow night!

OK. Back to the Story. I almost completely forgot that I had other tickets. And then it donned on me, "I could win another prize. I still have other tickets in my hand!" And then the universe threw me some more love! This time I won 2 round trip chartered flights to Grand Junction, Co. I am headed to wine country!



The benefit was amazing! I was so happy with my prizes! I will leave you with a few pics from the event, but the real drunk and funny ones are probably on FB.
