Earlier this week a “claiming slip” was delivered to our house by our friendly neighborhood postman. The slip stated that there was a package for me just waiting to be picked up at local post office.
This actually boggled me since I don’t recall ordering anything over the net… but, nevertheless… I went to check it out.
I headed over to “Window 1″ as instructed by the claim stub and waited for the clerk to retrieve my package. She came out of a room with a small plastic package and handed it over to me. As soon as I felt it… I already knew what it was… it was only then that I remembered that Matt Mullenweg (Co-Founder of Wordpress/Automattic) and Maya (Desai) promised to send me their official Wordpress T-Shirt and asked for my postal address two weeks ago. Images below:
I have been in close correspondence with Matt and Maya, coordinating stuff about our newly founded “Wordpress Pinoys” Community… also since Matt and Maya said that officially sanctioned Wordpress events here in the Philippines organized and facilitated by our group would be a great idea.
We are also sending them (as promised also) a couple of our official “Wordpress Pinoys” T-Shirt as soon as everything has been finalized (design and manufacturing).
So… THANK YOU, Matt and Maya! I simply LOVE the shirt! Thank you also for all the speedy replies to my emails. The shirt fits me to a tee! The size I asked from you guys was just right! Looks like I’m going to need to regularly hit the treadmill so that I always look good wearing the shirt! Hehehe! Hope to see pics of you guys wearing our “Wordpress Pinoys” tees soon when we send them over!
I’ll be posting some images of myself as well wearing the Wordpress shirt soon…!

Really? Meron na ka nang nakitang may suot na ganitong shirt? Hmmm… mnga adiktus rin pala!
@ Kiko Matsing
Hehe… malapit na ang WPP shirts. Malapit na…! Abangan!
@ Jim
Available ang Wordpress shirt sa online store nila…!
@ Laarni
LOL… pwede naman mag-order online eh… I think it only comes in red nga ata.
@ AZ
Yup… same reaction ko nung natanggap ko… “WOW”! Talagang pinadala sa akin ni Matt. Sinuot ko agad eh…! Couldn’t wait!
@ Maru
How long ba does it take bago dumating? 2 weeks rin ba? Normally ganun kapag postal eh… unless ibang shipping option ang pinili nung bumili for you.
@ Selvo
LOL! Hahaha… talaga ha! Sige… gawa tayo ng WPP underwear… or swimwear… yung “W” ng wordpress gitnang gitna ng underwear para sapol! Suot ka ha!

Hey there! Nope, I didn’t pay for it. Matt Mullenweg (co-founder of Wordpress) and Maya (his GF) sent it to me. They asked for my address 2 weeks ago and said they’d be sending me one of their official shirts. They asked me what size I was, so I said “male medium”. True enough, they did send it. So happy!
@ Jojie
Nope… hindi ito maroon. Hindi lang matingkad ang pic. RED talaga yan.

Not sure kung may white although it wouldn’t be bad… pero right now, mukhang black ang mauuna. But we’ll make sure to create white counterparts as well.
@ Earthlotus
Haha… ayusin natin ang payment scheme kapag ok na ang shirts. Abangan mo sa forum… we’ll put up a separate discussion topic for that…
@ Barubal
Hahaha… mga pinoy pa… pati mga chinese pirates! Siguradong magkakaroon din ng mga kopya nito sa greenhills eventually! Hahaha!
@ Pao
Yup! I saw the tag… I’m completing my post in reply to your tag na… hehehe… I’ll be posting it in a bit. Bleh! Nakaganti ka na!

Hey Tin! Wag ka magalala… malapit na. Malapit nang mafinalize ang domain name natin eh… pag ok na yun… all systems go na tayo!
@ Chuvaness
Hehehe… parang ang may-ari ng shirt?! LOL!
@ Jun
Actually, hindi nga faithful ang reproduction ng picture sa pagkared ng shirt eh… when you actually see the shirt, mas matingkad ang pagka-pula niya… medyo maroon-ish nga ang itsura sa photo eh…

Malapit na ang WPP shirts… watch out for it!
@ Deuts
What shipping method did you opt for when you ordered the shirt? At most, whenever I ordered something online, it would take me about 2 weeks.
