DAN AND PHIL CHRISTMAS VIDEO MESSAGE GIVEAWAY
Yes, you did read that right. I was somehow one of the 50 randomly selected out of 4,000 people to receive a video message from Dan & Phil due buying their holiday merch within a specific time frame (posted about here) and now, Iâm giving it away.
Why am I doing that, you ask? Because in the past two years, Iâve had the privilege of meeting the boys three times, seeing them in person 13 times at different events, and got multiple notices on different social medias more times than I deserve honestly. Iâm forever thankful and grateful for being given all those opportunities, but Iâve had more than my fair share.
So when I read the message and it said this:
I immediately messaged IRL back and asked if this meant the video message could be addressed to someone other than the person the email named. They said of course, because it would be the same as if a parent bought items for their child and the child was really the one the message giveaway would be for.
One of the things Dan said to me when I met him at VidCon U.S. back on July 13th was, âItâs not easy, but it does get better.â And you know what? It has gotten better. And Tumblr was a big factor for that. This website and blog is my escape from reality. I can come here to talk about anything - freak out about my faves, rant about stuff that pisses me off, cry about my sorrows, etc. Of course itâs not healthy to rely on the internet for emotional support, but yâall really have shown me a type of love that not even people in my real life do over the years. I feel comfortable and safe here. And thereâs no way I could ever repay everyone for that.
But I thought this could be some way that I could give back to the community thatâs given me so much.
The rules are simple because they arenât really rules:
- Only reblog this once. Doing so multiple times wonât raise your chances because Iâm only entering usernames in once. Likes will not count as entries.
- You must be okay with giving me your email address itâs required for IRL Merch to send you the video.
- Your DMs must be open the day the giveaway ends so that I can message you asking the following, which is the information IRL asked the winners for: Name for the video, name pronunciation, and an email for the video to be sent to.
- You donât have to be following me to enter, but it would be cool if you did! *finger guns*
Like with all my previous giveaways, all usernames be entered into a randomizing generator and randomly selected. Then I will privately message the winner (I donât do public winner announcements due to jealous hate being sent to winners in the past).
The giveaway will end December 13, 2019 at 7pm EST/December 14 at 12am GMT (D&Pâs time). Since the information must be submitted via email by December 15, I want to have everything submitted one day early just to be safe.
I hope to make someone elseâs holiday season as good as the last few years have been for me with this.
Good luck, happy holidays, and thanks for everything!
