Pin It Now!

The Cebu blog Camp is an event organized annually by the Cebu Bloggers of the Blog and Soul Movement which is the educating leg of the Philippine Blog Awards Inc. which has been running for already four years. This is the largest gathering of bloggers in Cebu.

Whether you believe me or not, I just decided to join this event the other day. I never thought that I'd really get an e-mail or anything since I just started out a serious blog, The Sweet-toothed Diaries, just recently. I thought I won't get an e-mail, really. But if it's still possible for me to join, then I would. I wasn't able to join the last blog camp. So, if given the chance, this would be my first time.

Probably my primary reason for joining the event is to meet my girl crush. Hahaha! I won't name names but I really look up to her. She's a famous blogger and photographer in Cebu. She is the boyfriend's schoolmate and he knows that I'm dying to see her. I won't mind not being able to talk to her, I just want to be able to see her. I know, desperation in my voice. I just want to.

Another thing is that I want to meet new people. I don't know much people outside school except my mountaineering friends. I also would want to meet those people in the Cebu blogging world that I look up to. I want to meet people who have the same interest as I do. It's not everyday that you get to meet people as weird as you are. Peace!

Third, every event would mean new lessons to be learned. Meeting new people is not just about enlarging your circle. This would also mean learning new things about them and about the trade. I always like listening to the stories of other people. Knowing their varying point of views help you to be open to different possibilities around you.

Fourth, it's a once a year event. This doesn't happen every month or as frequently as one wishes. Not being able to attend would mean having to wait for another 365 days for the next event. Instead of whining about missing the event, grabbing the opportunity when you are able to is better. The next year's blog camp is not the same as this year's blog camp.

Lastly, it's surely a fun-filled event. Having a room-full of bloggers would mean nothing but talks and jokes. I'm sure there won't be any dull moment.

The event will be happening this Saturday, May 28, 2011 at Sacred Heart Center, Cebu City. I sure hope to see you there!
