iBlog5



Yesterday, I’ve attended my first blogger event ever since I started my Aikee’s Corner. It was amazing to see several bloggers of all ages.

Saturday morning I woke up 3am. I haven’t decided if I’ll be going to the event or not. After 2 more hours, I got myself all dressed up and ready to go. Getting myself on the venue is not a problem, I took 20-minute FX ride to get to PHILCOA, and then another Jeepney ride going to U.P. Diliman Campus. It was my first time in the campus. I’ve only seen the University on the television and photos. I’ve been a little confused when I got inside the campus, I thought it would be just that easy when I saw it on wikimapia, but the Jeepney turned the otherside. But since I am early to arrive the venue, I decided to take a little tour around the campus and turn my misadventure the other way around. I’ve arrived at the College of Law premises without knowing it after a few walk and talk. You’re right I thought I am lost since I made Quezon Hall my landmark instead of Gonzalez Hall, but the security guards on each building inside the campus were very helpful, unlike in my school, LOL!

Upon arriving at the venue, I found out I am one of the early birds so I get to take home freebies. But I did not received my ID because it wasn’t there (what’s the use of the “Ayos Dito” lanyard), quite strange since I am not last on the online registration, but it’s okay. It’s just a super minor problem. I also took the advantage to sit at the back on the left side of the hall, to avoid being picked to introduce myself. I know it’s a good chance to promote my blog, but I am just so shy. haha…

The hall slowly filled with bloggers from as far as Cebu a few minutes after I entered the hall, and at 9am the summit started with “Blogging 101″ by Micaela Rodriguez & AJ Matela

Here are the complete information about the program:
