September 18th, 2013 Andrea Rhee is the winner but I still got some cool prizes.

Top 10 prizes! Argosy Christmas Cruise, Kenmore Air Plane ride for two, $5 Forza card, 
$10 Cinema card, 5 day membership to NW Fitness 247

I was sworn to secrecy by the host of Evening Magazine, Meeghan, so I didn't post until today. We got there around 11am and was surprised there were only a few cars parked. The event started at 11:30, but even when "doors opened" there were well under 200 people. I think it's odd that people would be given the opportunity to win an apartment for a year and not show up to the final event. I know some people took a long lunch that day to attend the event.

I haven't been on the ferry before, so I was excited about that. It's much nicer inside than I expected. But that makes sense since it's the sales office for Point Ruston. When you're looking to buy a condominium you get to see the whole plans for the area.

This isn't a picture I took. While I was at the event there were too many people for me to get a good shot of this.
 I found this in google images from pointruston.com.

There were lots of people there and the energy was high and nervous all at the same time. I could feel people's disappointment when the last name was called (not to mention hear it!). I had a good time doing this contest and the event was very nice. I may find a way to continue my journey at Point Ruston, so you haven't heard the last of me yet! Here's some more photos of the day!

September 12th, 2013 Eagerly Anticipating Monday!


Hey there, it's been a while. I thought I would write some because I still am really hoping I win the apartment. If so, you readers right now will have had the benefit of reading my early posts about the waterfront. If I live there, I will continue to blog to spread the word about Point Ruston. The contest has officially come to an end. I did every challenge and earned 1695 pts. Early on I got one of the questions wrong, so I am missing 30 pts from perfect. I ended up coming in tie for 2nd place. Not too shabby. I look at my pictures, blog posts, interactions with Point Ruston and the amount of social media I did and I think I'm #1 for sure :)

I did the 30 Second Commercial the other day. That was fun. My original concept was a lot different, but I liked what I decided to do. Really, check it out! Okie dokie, I just had Point Ruston on my mind, so I decided to write. Here's a pic of me when I was officially #1.


Too bad I didn't keep that spot. Though really, it doesn't matter, I just thought it was fun. Officially Tony ended up coming in 8th place. So overall, we both did pretty good!

Point Ruston posted the Top 100 Finalists so if you want to see it, just click. Here's the top of the list:


Well I likely won't post until Monday! Wish me luck :)
