Went to Bloggers.sg 2005 yesterday.

Quite a number of pp said that it's boring. And then I read tenebrousi's view on it and thought I agreed whole heartedly.

This is roughly my conversation with mrbrown when I approached him to take a photo together.

me: Hi mr brown.
mb: Hi
me: I am yew mun. I wrote the jilted superion in stupidgenius
mb: Oh. Ok.
me: Shall we take a picture?
mb: Ok.

<click>

me: Thanks
mb turns around and started walking away
me: Oh, by the way,
mb turns back again: Yeah?
me: Few yrs back, long time ago, I took ur phone picture and asked u for it, remember?
mb: Oh ya ya. Wow, tats very long liao.

The end.

I saw a number the hot female bloggers there, but it's like quite prudent to approach them to talk and take pic. Me shy leh. :P And I am quit4e worried abt making a mistake in their identity. Imagine this:

me: Hi Sassy Jan! I like your blog. I think you are cool!
sj: Er... I am Sandralicious.

This will be disastrous.

I reached the place at abt 2. Slightly before it start. The TShirt booth is outside and I got 2 Tshirts. 1 for Jonathan. He can't come and wanted me to help him get 1. Belinda supposed to go with me but she overslept and will only be there at about 4. Choon Kiat thought Embassy is Embargo and went to Fullerton 1. Luckily both are near each other. I saw Jean there as well. She's a helper. Coolz. I volunteered but they did not reply to me. Anyway, it started with mb annoucing the event and started introducing a few blogs and blog groups and then it's the refreshment.

I thought the snacks are quite lousy. After eating, I go to ask mb for a picture (see above). And then I took another pic with Kenny Sia. And off I went to print the photos. And Belinda came. And Choon Kiat announced he has to go for family dinner. After that it's the law session. Some of it was quite interesting, but the volume can be quite soft. And I had abt 4 hrs sleep the last nite, so unfortunately I dozed off during 1 part...

After the law session, it's the technology session. Flickr looks cool. So is RSS. I have just subscribed to blog lines. Word Press and Typepad looks interesting too. Maybe I'll change to them 1 of these days... Oh, and Adri is hot. :P She said she used to pay US$6 per month for her web host. But now she needa pay US$100 to maintain the site which she isn't going to, so her blog is down indefinitely. US$100 a mth! That's to pay for a very big bandwidth! Wow!

And finally, it's the belly dancing! They are hot! And pretty!. After the dance, they were available for photo taking. Kenny is the 1st to go. After that is mb and Mr Miyagi. And next is me. I am the 1st non famous blogger to go take pic! :P And I went to print the photos. Thanx Lexmark! :)

Xiaxue walked past me as I was finishing the printing. I asked her to take a picture with me. She agreed, but as I am waiting to take my sd card outta the printer, she say she'll come back in awhile, which she never did... Fly me aeroplane...

Bel and I went for dinner after that. mb annouced that there's free flow of house pours until 9:30pm. We came back at 8:30pm. I managed to drink 4 glasses of Bourbon Coke. They were quite big glasses and quite potent mix. I like it! Bel had 2 glasses of Vodka Ribena, and I kept 1 glass of Vodka Ribena for Choon Kiat. The popular bloggers were in this room having a chat. It makes it a tad harder to try to join in. Me and Bel were sitting outside.

One interesting thing that happened is that I saw Kenny unbuttoning his shirt for a picture. I was wondering why is he doing that when I look to his right and saw SPG's boobs hanging out ready for the pic! Wow! Now I can say I see her boobs for real! Hee hee.

I thought I enjoyed this event somewhat. Though it will be better if there is more interaction with the other bloggers. But me shy... I hope there will be more of such events that I can join. Maybe I shld make my way to Hideout sometime...

I shan't post the pictures here. But you can see them here. Belly Dancers included. :)
