Just got home yesterday from Manila where I personally met and had dinner with a good online friend and attended the Blog Parteeh! 07. It was a blast and I got to meet and greet fellow Pinoy bloggers. Thanks to all the bloggers who organized the event, the sponsors and everyone who attended.

The biggest Blog Parteeh! on this spot of the planet will be happening on January 27 somewhere down there (see photo). I’ll try to get an invite and go to this just for the sheer pleasure of meeting kindred spirits – my fellow Pinoy bloggers. I’ll be coming from Baler to a place in Makati near Belair – how’s that for a coincidence. This must be my destiny.

You can join the “tipar” if you’re an active blogger. Just go here and follow the directions.

This also means i would be in Manila on Jan 26 and 27. So i’m calling all my drinkmates in the city. Give me a hoot at [email protected] com so we can set our small meetup of sorts.

Houston, we have a problem: I can’t make this post appear in Technorati. I followed all the instructions and did all the tricks available online. So I might not be able to do the 300 kilometer Baler to Bel-air adventure race trip all.
