A: If a character that knows only three words can make you cry.
If you want to know the story behind this Q&A, and if you want to find out if three words could really make you cry, then better head on to the cinemas and watch theGUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. That's exactly what my barkada and I did as we spent our sweetest ending for July. My Cadbury barkada's sweet ending started with an equally sweet announcement from Nuffnang, telling us that our barkada won three movie passes to the special block screening of Guardians of the Galaxy. Wohoooo! A great way to begin this sweet ending, right? :)
With only less than a week before classes resume, we sure wouldn't miss this opportunity to end July (and our 4-month long vacation) the sweetest way possible! So upon learning that our barkada were among those who will be joining Nuffnang to the movie screening, we confirmed our attendance right away! :)
The special movie screening at the Cinema 2 of Shang Cineplex
This special movie screening was held at the Cinema 2 of Shang Cineplex, EDSA Shangri-La Mall. We arrived at the venue 5 minutes early (registration starts at 8:40 in the evening) but the Nuffnang staff were already accommodating registrants, yey! At the registration, we just had to look for our names in their list and afterwards, we can choose for our movie seats (we really went early because early birds get to choose nicer seats). We also got food stubs to go along this great movie experience! How sweet is that? :)
Registration at the Nuffnang booth
My Cadbury barkada's tickets and food stubs :)
After registration at the Nuffnang booth, we then proceeded to the Cadbury booth where we filled up raffle coupons (they were raffling off a brand new IPad Mini! o_o). We don't have to wait for the IPad Mini raffle because we're already winners at the Cadbury booth! We just had to draw from their box and we could instantly win either a Cadbury Notepad or a Cadbury Notebook. All three of us in our barkada won Cadbury Notepads (that looked like Big Cadbury bars haha!). We could also have our photos printed out for free, we just had to post them via Instagram and/or Twitter with the hashtag #CadburySweetEndings. We got our printed photos after the movie. :))

Got our photos printed out here for free! :)
Before we entered the cinema, we claimed our popcorn and drinks using our food stubs. All of us in our barkada went for our all-time favorites: cheese-flavored popcorn and lemonade. Inside the cinema, we noticed that most of the audience are already munching on their popcorns, so we were tempted to do the same, haha! I guess there won't be any popcorns left for the actual movie huhu.
Our cheese-flavored popcorn: they didn't even make it to the trailers :(
Relate? :)
While waiting for the movie, we busied ourselves by watching the newest and sweetest Cadbury commercial while at the same time commenting on just how cute the commercial is. Aside from having a severe LSS from the commercial song *baby, baby, baby heaven sent you*, all three of us are now girl crushing over the very beautiful girl in the commercial. Naging instant stalkers pa kami, haha! The commercial was still playing pa nga as we were welcomed warmly by the newest Talent Executive for Nuffnang Philippines. *They showed us how to enjoy our Cadbury Dairy Milk chocolates the proper way:
RIP the exquisite royal purple and gold packaging. See the perfectly shaped mounds of chocolate with a smooth satin shine. The look of delicious chocolate. Smell the aroma. Imagine what it would taste like - and you know it will be good too.
Then you BITE into it. Listen for that satisfying snap.
Here comes the most awaited part: You savor it and let it MMM-MELT. Don't ruin the experience by chewing and swallowing immediately. Let it roll over your tounge. Delight as the creamy taste washes over your mouth.
Then you ENJOY by repeating the ritual: Bite and MMM-Melt, Bite and MMM-Melt. Until the world MMM-Melts around you and you remember that all good things in life must really be savored.

After the quick demonstration of eating and enjoying chocolates the right way, they also had a quick game. I wanted to join the game so badly but my two friends were too shy huhu. The three groups of barkadas got to showcase their teamwork skills and brain prowess, haha! The questions were as follows: (1) How many members comprise the Guardians of the Galaxy, (2) How do you eat Cadbury chocolates the proper way and (3) Name three movies that feature barkadas. The questions were pretty easy right? So when I learned that all three of the participating barkadas will go back to their seats with premium Cadbury items and gift certificates, I bombarded my two barkada's with endless chants of: "SAYAAAAAAAAANG! KAYO KASI EEEH!" Huhuhu. The winner of the brand new Ipad Mini was also announced - there were only 25 entries! The kuya who won the prize is really one lucky guy :) But, I was not that jealous and sad because before the movie started, the super kulit Cadbury representative promised each of us a box of Cadbury premium items! Yeheeeeey! If that's not the sweetest ending for you, I don't know what is :3
After the movie, as promised, each of us were given a gift box containing Cadbury items. This was also a great time to take photos in front of the GotG's promotional poster at the lobby. There were so many people trying to take their photos that we had to line up! And my two friends were so excited and going gaga because they saw a lot of personalities that night. If only we were brave enough, we could have had a photo opp with some personalities that night, no? :)
Wouldn't miss a photo opp with the newest Marvel heroes :)
