I’m not really one to enter contests. I’ve never won anything in my life—even at my senior high school post prom party where everyone wins something, I only got a small fan. Everyone else had TVs, and stereos. I won a fan that broke three weeks later. Didn’t really convince me that I should enter things in the future.

I am, however, really into music, and would give one of my limbs to have access to so many concerts this summer (does anyone need a leg, cause I REALLY want to go to Rock the Bells). Which is why I was inspired to suck it up, and enter this really awesome contest. It’s so cool, I almost don’t want to tell you guys about it cause as of right now, there aren’t that many entries…. My chances are looking good. So don’t enter. Please.

LG has paired up with Billboard to give 30 people new camera phones, access to some of the hottest shows of the summer, and the forum to share your thoughts with the massive world of the blogosphere. All you have to do is write a 100 word essay about why you would make a great blogger, send them a “photo mash up”— which I hope I did properly— and you could be selected to cover shows across the country this summer. You use your new phone to take pictures, write your blog, and it will be posted on your own personal Billboard webpage. I would seriously pay them to let me do this.

At the end of the summer, three finalists are selected based on their number of hits, and then you, the people, get to vote for whose work is the best.

LG has realized that us 20 somethings have a hard time living without our phones these days. I left my phone at home yesterday, and thought I was going to have a nervous breakdown. I thought I was going to have a worse one when I got home and only one person had called me. I’m so cool.

LG is cashing in on this trend with all the cool contests they’ve held this year, all at the same time creating a buzz about their products. Sounds like someone over there is pretty smart, huh?
