As much as I love having one of Mariuca's famous contests here at my blog, I always have a difficult time when it comes to choosing my winner. I'd dread the closing date simply because the next step requires me to make a final decision, something I sometimes find hard to do, especially when I receive so many wonderful entries.
Now that my 2nd Blogversary Contest is officially over, it is time for me to bid farewell to my adorable Mariuca Teddy Bear as he sets sail to his new destination. Though I've had the best time hanging out with my Teddy Bear this month, I am thrilled that he is headed for an exciting new life with his new family.
THANK YOU to everyone who took part in the Mariuca Teddy Bear contest, you guys made my 2-year anniversary celebration much more fun and exciting with your participation. Some of you put in so much effort into your entry, which made it almost impossible to single out just one winner. I also love all the names you've suggested for this adorable teddy bear. I was much impressed by your earnest creativity in trying to impress me with the best name for Mariuca's Teddy Bear. However, the agreement remains that there will be only one lucky winner and I have to say that this is the hardest selection I've ever had to make for any of the contests at Wishing On A Falling Star so far.
So are you ready to hear the new name I've chosen for my teddy bear? Without further ado, I am truly happy to name the Mariuca Teddy Bear with his new name - BEAR-iuca! Congratulations to Roxy of Roxiticus Desperate Housewives for coming up with the most perfect name for this adorable bear! Looks like BEAR-iuca is going to the USA! :)
With the name BEAR-iuca, Roxy has cleverly combined the bear with his master Mariuca, resulting in the cutest, most unique name appropriate for an adorable bear. When you hear BEAR-iuca, your thoughts will definitely turn to Mariuca right? I thought this was an excellent name choice, thanks Roxy! :)
Roxy's two lovely daughters, which is one of the reasons Roxy wants to win, even came up with a catchy cheer for BEAR-iuca and it goes a little something like this.
BEAR-iuca, BEAR-iuca,
Amazing teddy cheer
BEAR-iuca, BEAR-iuca,
BEAR-iuca come live here!
The other reason Roxy would like to bring home BEAR-iuca is because she plans to share this lovely bear with everybody in the blogosphere. She has made a solemn promise to share BEAR-iuca by sending him around the globe to make an appearance on hundreds of blogs! I love the idea of BEAR-iuca having his own little adventure, making new friends, spreading love and cheer, which ultimately moved me to select BEAR-iuca and Roxy as the winner for the Mariuca Teddy Bear contest YAY! :)
Once again, congratulations to Roxy and thank you very much to the rest of my participants. Don't despair if you did not win this contest for you still have a shot at bringing home BEAR-iuca's sister from MPG! Isn't she adorable? You have until the 18th of December to send in your entry so hurry! To find out how you can WIN the MPG Teddy Bear in pink, click here.

Hola Mariuca! A huge congrats to Roxy for winning BEAR-iuca! :):) Your daughters must be really excited eh, Roxy? Have a great weekend! :)
Thanks Sasha, happy u got back yours! Have a good weekend. :)
Hi Debbs! Thank YOU for ur lovely Mac entry, it was really very moving, love ya lots! :):):)
Congratulations to Roxy in this big win! To be honest, I knew she would win as soon as I saw her entry. I almost participated, but I knew there was no way I could top that creative name and I was hoping she would win, even though I don't really know her. This is a fantastic name Roxy!
I almost went with Maribeara, which is also a cool name. I'm a little surprised no one else thought of it. I won one contest already and wanted someone else to win. Next time, all bets are off and I'm going for the win!!!!!
YAY! Thanks Bobby, so you were secretly rooting for Roxy yes? He he, how could I NOT love a name like BEAR-iuca??? It's da best, congrats again to Roxy! :):):)
Ooooh Maribeara is kinda cool too he he, you still have time to win the MPG Bear if you like Bobby! If you win, will u be keeping her for urself or give her to someone else? ;)
Heartiest congratulations Roxy! Take good care of BEAR-iuca aka Randy Rover ya... hehe
So good!
Awwwww thanks Nessa! Don worry, BEAR-iuca aka Randy Rover will have a great life in the US! Thank you for joining my contest too sweetie HUGS! :):):)
Thanks YS, happy Sunday! :)
Aiks! I thot I left a comment here? Must have got lost in cyberspace la. Ok, ok, I didn't leave a comment yet la. I'm still in mourning from not the winning the bear. Congrats to the winner.
Awwwwww cheer up Nick! Thanks so much for entering this contest too, I will have more fun contests in 2009 so try again next time okay? :):):)
Congratulations!
