Tongue in Chic's Youreka Campaign with Yahoo!

Tongue in Chic's Youreka campaign with Yahoo! held in November 2009. Sorry peeps. I really thought I'd be notified when the contest was running so that I'd be able to update you (so that you can join too). But I only just found out about it last week that it was already out for almost half a year already. 5 Months to be exact. No worries, in the future, if there are anymore contest, I'd let you know earlier ;) Do give it a read though.
