Mindanao Bloggers Summit 4 Experience

October 30, 2010. Orchid Ballroom, Garden Orchid Hotel, Zamboanga City. It was the day that we all waited for. I was assigned in the audiovisuals to assist the speakers in their presentations. The program was smooth and everything went fine. The line up of speakers were great. Mr. Mayor was very impressive and we're really thankful for his support. The dancers and singers were also impressive. The food is good but i didn't really enjoy much because i was running back and forth while having lunch. Everything went fine except for one. The participation was very lacking. Sayang talaga kasi marami ang hindi pumunta. They really missed the whole day affair packed with awesomeness. I don't wanna write a long post for this one coz the photos will do all the speaking for me this time. Note: more photos after the jump.

Bienvenidos means welcome!

Well, it was a successful event. I hope that many bloggers will change how they see Zamboanga. I know that we were really inspired by the speakers and we really have learned much about mindanao, about zamboanga, about social responsibility, and about how to become a better blogger by using the power of our blog to make a change. I wished that we had more time to know each other better. Im looking forward for the next activities of the blogging community and hopefully more bloggers will be able to participate in the events.
