Pinoy blogging experiences. Includes blogging tips, technical blogging guides, wordpress, and SEO.
Hi! I'm Allen and I welcome you to my blog. I blog mainly about my blogging experiences where I get to learn how to earn money online through blogging and have fun doing so. To learn more about my blog, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. If you have some questions, feel free to ask me by using my contact form. Thank and have a nice day.
I promised myself that I will not write this until I finish my powerpoint presentation for thesis. It’s 12:48am now and I am writing this. Can I just get some sleep now and blog this later when I wake up? NO! Haha I want to post this or else I will be forgetting what happened in the event.
So without further ado, let me retell what happened at the event…
The first blogger that I met was Karlo @ PinoyBlogero since we planned to go together since we are not 100% sure of the location of the venue. When we arrived at Glorietta, I asked the security guard and he told us to exit from Glorietta 1 and to our surprise, Max restaurant (venue) was very near to the exit. It was still early, I think just about 4:45. Karlo wants to be the early bird! haha
Moments later, we saw some people entering the place so we followed them. The secret code we uttered was “digital” and we were escorted by the waiter to the second floor to a function room. We were greeted by the organizer of the event, Ms. Janette Toral and was seated together with fellow bloggers. They are Ms. Noemi, Ms. PJ, and Ms. Joy. They were exchanging business cards and poor me since I don’t have any. Lesson Learned!
More people arrived and Karlo introduced me to Elmo. At that point, the three of us were like the three little pigs sitting with the pro-bloggers. More people came and more introductions was done. Karlo went to a nearby table and talked to some people which as of that time, I don’t know any of them yet. But when we transferred to their table, we were introduced and I got to know them. So in no particular order, they are Benj of Atheista, Coy of Coksiblue, Shari of Misteryosa, Jhed from The Dork Factor, Alan of Milk Planner and (your name.. i remember you are 16 and from LB.. but your name slipped from my mind) Kevin of UtakGago. I also met the AnitoKid and the very lucky Jehzeel Laurente.
It was a enjoyable event. I met a lot of new people, made new friends and new contacts. Everything is new for me since this is my first time. My heart was pounding like hell when I was made to introduce myself in front of everyone. Although I do hope and expect that this heart pounding feeling will be gone by the next blogger meet-up event.
Oh yeah, congratulations to the winners of the Top ten emerging influential blogs of 2007 contest.
and also congrats to the ten lucky winners of the $100 raffle. Mr. Jehzeel Laurente, Heneroso, and Sexy Mom were there to receive there cold cash. ^_^
Well, that’s it for my first blogger eyeball. My next post will be what I have learned about this event after I get a well deserved good night’s sleep. ^_^
PS: I regret that I did not have links business cards to give out and a camera to take pictures of the event. Oh well, might as well link to the posts that have pictures in them. hehe

2Hey! It’s been a pleasure meeting you. We haven’t had the chance to talk though, maybe next time. Hehe. By the way, whose Alan are you referring to? The “Alan” beside Carl or the “Alan” beside me. If it is the latter, he’s not Alan Racoma. Hehe. He’s Agent Grey from milkplanner.wordpress.com.
