Hello everyone, I am posting this thread to share with you my incredible news! =) My mom got an email early this morning stating that I was the grand prize winner for the www.celinedionbeauty.com/sensational competition! She had submitted my story late September and I have had friends and family voting to get me into the top 10. I FINALLY made it into the top 10 (number 8 with 641 votes!) and out of those 10, a grand prize winner is chosen
4. JUDGING/VOTING/WINNER DETERMINATION: (a) Entries will go through two judging rounds to select the two monthly winners and the one Grand Prize winner. First, visitors to the Web site will vote on who is the most sensational woman. The top ten vote recipients will then be judged by a panel of judges from Sponsor, utilizing the following criteria, with 25 points available to be awarded for each criterion: (i) sincerity of nomination, (ii) style of Entry, and (iii) what makes the nominee sensational.
AND THEN.. my mom got this email today :

Once you send back you information we will work out flight and hotel accommodations for your trip.
Thank you and Congratulations!
This is the award stated in the terms and conditions of the contest...

I am still in utter awe about it all and the first thing I wanted to do was share it all with you! You all have given me such amazing hope that dreams do come true. There is no meet and greet included but we are going to email the director of it and see if something is possible.
keep your fingers crossed! FINALLY, someone from the forum has won something! =) I'm sorry this is so long but I just wanted to share it all!
YAY!!!!

Congratulations! 
.. but if your seriously asking for a 'Meet & Greet', then dont you think thats a little much? You already won this extravigant trip, along with a free stay in a hotel, free concert tickets, etc.
