One Day I will.. CONTEST RESULTS!

Wow! It was not an easy task to pick the winners. Everyone has their own ambitions and dreams of the future and I thank all the participants for sharing their dream with us.


The judging process

The 35 entries were divided into 5 broad categories, FAMILY, PERSONAL, ISLAMIC, BLOGGING/ONLINE BUSINESS and HUMOROUS. Then each entry went through 3 rounds of evaluation.

FIRST ROUND
35 entries
The best 3 or 4 from each category advanced to the next round (this was to ensure diversity).

SECOND ROUND
17 entries
Each judge voted whether or not the entry deserved to proceed to the final round. Only entries that recieved unanimous votes (5 votes) continued.

FINAL ROUND
4 entries
(so I have increased the prizes to top 4 instead of top 3)
Each judge rated the entry according to their opinions. Giving 4 marks for the one they liked the best, 3 marks for second, and so on. Full marks was 20.

I hope that everyone will be satisfied with the judging process :)
