First time mo?

Yes, first time ko

Two weeks ago i attended my first blogger event. I was a ‘blogger’s companion’. Being a highly introverted person, I was quite apprehensive about venturing into this new thing. Ako pa!!! Although I may not look it, super mahiyain ako…meeting new people and going to strange things really stir up so much anxiety in me. Nonetheless, my friend Janine convinced me it would be a fun thing to do and so I went. I figured, what’s the worst thing that can happen diba?!? 

Anyway, the Coke blogger’s event was held in Taste Asia, MOA. It was an interesting mix of music, food, games and prizes. Being a first timer, I didn’t really know what to expect. When my friends and I got there, we were  greeted by a line at the entrance and the blaring music inside the venue. When we got in, my friends met up with fellow bloggers. It was somewhat uncomfortable for me in the beginning, simply because I take time to adjust to new situations. After some time though I felt more at ease and was beginning to have a good time.  Especially after having a few Cokes!

For the most part, my first time was a good one. At the end of the day I came out of the Coke event with more than just that free case of coke, a ticket for an Imax movie (c/o my banana dancing friend), and a belly full of yummy food. I was able to challenge myself to go beyond my comfort zone and be okay with it. I not only met new people, but I even maintained contact with they. More importantly, I developed a whole new respect for the World Wide Web, the home of all our blogs. I can say “our” now because due to the Coke event, my blogging life was reborn

Ika nga ng Coke…buhay Coke, buksan mo…ang sarap dito!
