Fun, Free and Full of Possibilities

These are three ingredients that make my October 27, 2007 a cut above the rest. At feeling ko, pinagkakaguluhan ako ng press... :-) Joke lang...



The 1st Mindanao Blogger's Summit at NCCC Mall Activity Center and the Blogger's Fellowship Night at Casa Habana are the most awaited events of my blogging years. Pegged on the theme, "Spotlight Mindanao: Blogging for Culture, Identity and Understanding", the one-day activity aimed to enhance the skills of blogging and its benefits, foster camaraderie among bloggers and of course to promote peace and understanding in Mindanao(re: the theme)... The occasion had a profound impact on each and every true- blooded blogger.



The two events was spearheaded by the Usual Suspects and participated by a hundred bloggers coming from Manila and Mindanao.

I arrived at around 11AM. Yes, I'm late... My apology. To tell you, di sana ako makapunta kasi supposedly may home visit ako related to my Psychiatric nursing sa Matalam and Makilala, North Cotabato but there's no signs na matutuloy, so I decided to join. At dahil na rin sa kakulitan ni Kuya Bryan. Thank you kuya Bryce! Heheh. Later ko na rin nalaman nang nasa Bansalan na ako na matutuloy ang home visit. So, I asked my permission to my group mates and my clinical instructor na di ako makasali. Buti na lang pumayag.

MBS1 was jammed by Kuya Migs. It was complemented by top-notch speakers who stamped their individual mark. Mr. Bob Martin's Blogging in Mindanao: Travel and Technology shared his Mindanao travels through pictures. Fr. Albert Alejo, SJ discussed about Socio- Cultural Mindset of the Mindanaoan. After a yummy lunch from Dimsun Diner, a special video greeting from Aillen Apolo and Matt Mullenweg were shown. Then it was followed with Kim Castillo's "Transition from "Emo" to Niche Blogging, Jayvee Fernandez's Blogging as a way of life: Problogging and new Media, Marc Macalua's How to Optimize your Wordpress blog for Top Search Rankings and ended with Session's with A-List Bloggers. And one more thing, I got also a chance to promote my blog and won an IBM notebook. Heheh, thanks Kuya Migs and Kuya Bloggie..

The blogger's fellowship night at Casa Habana was colored by Abet (a stand- up comedian) and of course, fabulous snacks! It was the night of all night.


After the fellowship, kuya Bloggie gave us a treat together with Kuya Bryan, kuya Mark Paul, kuya Ayel, Aethen, Mikko and Kuya Jayvee at Fwendz diner.

I have finally proven that the 1st Mindanao Blogger's summit and Fellowship night provided a nice avenue for bloggers across Mindanao and from Manila to be acquainted with each other.

A pat on the back of the people who worked hard during the summit and fellowship night. To the Usual Suspects, Special Event sponsors, Major Sponsors, Minor Sponsors and Donors, thank you very much!


Surely everyone enjoyed it and indeed, a great success!


Until next time... See yah!


Godspeed.
