Happy Valentine’s my dear readers!

WeChat, 2013’s most-searched social mobile app, is about to give cupid a run for his arrow this Valentine’s Day! Read along why 🙂

WeChat lets you air out your emotions

Love qoutes? Poems? Why not read it out load and send it to your partner through WeChat’s voice messaging feature. You can even sing a few lines from your theme song (ayyyiii). Plus points: Recipients can save these audio recordings to WeChat’s Favorite Messages feature and replay it whenever they please.

WeChat helps you keep moments on record

And there’s video recording feature too! Be more creative and record a stunt that you can think of (we’re talking about romantic stunts, OK? haha). For a more real-time approach, opt to use WeChat’s video call and reach your loved ones wherever they are. (Kilig moment to hear his voice after almost a week of no voice calls hahaha) 

WeChat takes the ordinary up a notch

Love, love love..I love you’s and what not.. how can you make those phrase better? Say it over WeChat! That would definitely make your smartphone screens rain with roses every time it gets keyed in. Not only is it more economic, it’s also more accessible and surprising than a real bunch.

WeChat adds up to your list of surprises

Update your roll of to-dos for Valentine’s as WeChat brews up a Facebook activity especially for the season. Simply snap a photo with your loved one coupled with a note which explains why he/she is the Valentine of your eye and post it to WeChat’s Facebook page. The team will choose the best entry and will grant the winner a special gift—fitting to let the warmth of love melt into the occasion.

While waiting in line for our NBI clearance.. (we applied online but the whole process took 4 hours! argh!!! will post about that soon!) I thought or more like wished that someone from the long queue would start singing Let It Go and we’d all sing along.. or a surprise mob will appear to entertain the applicants. I wish we have something like that here in our country, a group of artists dedicated to entertain people in long queues, like MRT lines, NBI clearance or any other government agencies with long lines..

And today, I found out, there is a group/ organization (or company)based  in New York: Improv Everywhere

Watch this video when the speaker asked the audience at Gel Conference to turn off their mobile devices:

And this is one of my favorite.. very heartwarming…

Imrov Everywhere shared in their website why they were doing this: 

Improv Everywhere is, at its core, about having fun. We’re big believers in “organized fun”. Our missions are a fun source of entertainment for the participants, those who happen to see us live, and those watch our videos. We get satisfaction from coming up with an awesome idea and making it come to life. In the process we hopefully bring excitement to otherwise unexciting locales and give strangers a unique experience and a great story to tell. We’re out to prove that a prank doesn’t have to involve humiliation or embarrassment; it can simply be about making someone laugh, smile, or stop to notice the world around them.

See, it’s all about making people smile and laugh!

I really wish we have something like this here in the Philippines!

Anyone who has been bound by the many charms of love would understand why and how Valentine’s Day smears the world with smitten smiles and handpicked presents every 14^th of February. If you haven’t figured out how to mark the season of love with your own brand of special yet, read along to find out how WeChat can add up to your pocketful of surprises with its Facebook promo, “A Photo with My Valentine”.

This February 10-16, everyone is invited to post a photo with a “Valentine” on Facebook, which include the tags #WeLove and @WeChatPH. Now, this “Valentine” doesn’t necessarily have to be a significant other. It can be a family member, a pet, or just about anyone or anything dear to you.

The Most Popular Photo, which will garner the biggest number of “Shares” and “Likes” will get to take home an iPad Air. While on the other hand, the Most Creative Photo, the Sweetest Photo, and the most Touching Photo will garner 1,000 diamonds on Gunz Dash. Don’t miss out on this chance of winning these prizes so snap away!
