Halloween at Metromint

by Jaime Borschuk, Web & Print Manager

This Halloween, Metromint held an online costume contest for our fans. We were happy to receive a number of costume photos from enthusiastic fans, though we had to select just one winner. Our costume winner is Jenikah. Jenikah spent a week making this beautiful peacock costume by hand! These photos show the costume modeled by Megan Jade:

The Metromint office also held a costume contest among employees.  Founder Rio Miura and President Scott Lowe awarded the grand prize of 1 paid day off work to Jenn Chan, Office_contest200who wore a Bruno inspired Velcro suit that kept her warm, uncomfortable, and sticking to everyone and everything all day long.   Yours truly was declared the 2nd prize winner of a $75 gift certificate to Whole Foods for my Alladin Sane-era version of David Bowie's alter ego Ziggy Stardust, which Metromint President Scott Lowe deemed as "solid." Honorable mentions went to Kiyoe Nakazawa's cheerleading costume, and Tessa Phosrithong's Vampire costume. Go team!

I would like to thank everyone who submitted a poem or video to us for this contest! It was hard for us to narrow it down to 3 winners, so we chose 3 written haikus and 2 videos. Without further ado, here they are:

Cooling sensations
Metromint tickles your tongue
No sweeteners, just love

Sorry, Valentine.
Metromint has won my heart.
I sip. I sigh. Love!

On Valentine's Day
Fill my bath with Metromint
Then leave me alone.
