A Taste of Asia for Bloggers

Being the insomniac freak that I am (or maybe it’s just because of the blow job), I got to read the posts of Yuga, Aileen Apolo, and Sasha about an upcoming event sponsored by SM Hypermarket earlier than most. And waddyah know, it’s an event especially organized for Philippine bloggers!

The event is open to bloggers of all shapes and sizes. says The Parodist. Weight doesn’t matter, haha (well, I hope). There’s going to be free food and drinks there, so who’s gonna care anyway about that kind of stuff anyway? :D Oh yeah, also free WiFi, I hear. ;)

I really want to come to make up for the lousy feeling I felt when I had to turn down Karla Maquiling’s (Pinoycentric.com) invitation for the intimate lunch at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel some weeks ago. It’s the launch of Aryty.com, a service provider that allows people from US and Canada to send phone credits (more popularly known as “load”) to their loved ones in the Philippines. But that was the same day I left for Baguio so I couldn’t come. Rain check?

But I digress. The “tasting” event will be held on the night of July 3 (it’s a Tuesday) at Taste of Asia, SM Mall of Asia. For more information, visit the An Apple a Day post.

*** You can confirm your attendance by leaving a comment on my blog so I can add you immediately to the list. :)

    Hi Shari! Please do come and I hope you can be one of the coordinators? Please please. I’m trying to get more people to help me coz I’ll be out of town the whole week before the event. Just list the names of those who confirmed with you and then email it to me. Or better yet I’ll create a spreadsheet on my Gmail account. Hope you can send me your email addy! Thanks.

    Gusto ko sanang maki-join the club, pero pass muna ‘ko siguro. ‘La pa ko impluwensya, ‘la pa akong pelikula.

    Ah este wala pa akong gaanong kilala kasi, tsaka ‘yun nga, halos kasisimula ko lang sa “wide-scale” blogging kaya wala pa masyadong kabig. Basta ganu’ng effect. :D Baka kilabutan ako kung may magyaya sa’kin bigla. *lol*

    Goodluck sa event niyo. :) Rak on.
