My First Blog Event

The first blogging event I went to was the iBlogMini@CEL held at the World Trade Center in Pasay City, held last November 15, 2009.

It was an exhibit hall, showcasing gadgets, bags, cars, and electronic stuff. The main event was of course Blogging 101 or do’s and don’ts of a new blogger. We were able to listen to the different advices of well known bloggers, from those who venture into business, different adventures of a blogger from Dagupan, a mom blogger, and those who are into podcasting as well. I might be confused or may be loaded with all the information but it was definitely a big help when it comes to creating our own posts. Each of the speaker’s stories was amazing as well. Of course, the most important lesson about everything they have said, BE ORIGINAL, BE YOURSELF!

They happen to manage a mini raffle contest, with prizes such as rice cooker, camera, bags, so on. I’ve always known I am so unlucky with this raffle contests, my name was actually called, I could have won a rice cooker, yet I was so busy signing up in a booth to get a notebook. Grrr. At least there is one in our group who manage to win in the raffle, an Evian mineral water bottle. Congrats Sir CD.

It was a mini adventure with my 2 professors and 3 classmates, which ended in a lot of picture taking, with just anything and eating out at MOA.

I'm definitely hoping to come to another blogging event like this. Thanks to all the speakers!
