It is now late afternoon and the rain is falling hard over at my side of the world but even that won't bring the usual Monday Blues my way because today is Mariuca's 2nd Birthday WOO HOO! :)
WOW! It's amazing how time flies when you're having fun and that is exactly what I have experienced here at my lovely blog. I've met so many new people, from all walks of life and all over the world, each one bringing a little of their culture and lifestyle here, adding colours and more love to Wishing On A Falling Star.
There are too many names to mention, but you know who you are. I love my Mariucans helluva lot and always try my best to entertain you with my posts, capturing your interest and support for me and my blog. So a big THANK YOU goes out to all my lovely friends, fans, supporters, members, readers and visitors. Without YOU to back me up, Wishing On A Falling Star will not be the blog it is today. And though I still have a long way to go in my blogging journey, I am proud of all my accomplishments thus far and will aspire to remain top-notch for your reading and blogging pleasure!
And to show you just how much I love my wonderful Mariucans, I am celebrating Mariuca's 2nd Birthday with a special blogversary contest! If my first ever contest awarded the Mariuca Mug to my winner, this special Mariuca Blogversary Contest is offering an adorable Mariuca Teddy Bear to one lucky Mariucan! :)

hi Mariuca..
I've just spoken to my resident Teddies here and they all nagging to put my entry in ...
I've told them Friday as I have Peace Globe day tomorrow..
so now they are all happy :) :)
hehe just dropped on my badge..you are the first :)
Hi Mariuca and BEAR-iuca...
Just wanted to let you know that my real post about BEAR-iuca is at Roxiticus Desperate Housewives, so I hope you can switch the link in your post over there so your friends and readers can stop by for the true story of BEAR-iuca. Just moved the post to the top of my blog and getting ready for a new Battle of the Blogs, hope BEAR-iuca will bring me luck!
The note I left about the link to Roxy's Best Of... was about the automated looking "links to this post" that appears at the bottom of your post (after all the comments I think), I don't know whether Google/Blogger does it automatically, but it caught my post at Roxiticus Desperate Housewives but not the new one at Roxy's Best Of...
Roxy

Hola Roxy! Oh sorry for the confusion then, I've corrected ur entry link here and I see that it has appeared at the end of the post.

I STILL want a Big Mac, the works! Lol!
I still haven't thought on the name for little bear bear! Hehe..the other entries are all awesome! My fave is Roxy's BEAR-iuca.
BEAR-iuca never let me down, GP...though I'm nervous about BOTB now that he's not at the top of my blog. And here I am taking on your nemesis, Jason Buckley...who, by the way, writes Roxy's Best Of... San Francisco, CA.
Roxy
At bedtime, I showed London and Maddie my post about BEAR-iuca... London said she was going to "turn on her dream machine and dream about BEAR-iuca all night long."
Roxy
I just noticed that when we changed our clocks from Daylight Savings Time to Eastern Standard Time here in the U.S., the time difference from Roxy to Mariuca changed by an hour. During the summer we were exactly 12 hours apart, now you are 13 hours ahead of me.
Roxy
Midnight magic time (and closing in on bedtime) for sleepy Roxy, one in the afternoon for you.
