How about a Blogger Christmas Meetup on Dec. 22?

I’ve been asked numerous times to set a date for a mini get-together this December. My schedule is really fully booked but December 22, 2006 (that’s a Friday) is a good time to have one.

Anybody interested? This is a Friday evening so maybe we could have it at the Mall of Asia or something?

Any suggestions? Who’s coming? This is dinner, coffee and photo-shoot afterwards. Informal meet-up just like what we all used to have before. We can plan and do a bigger one on January.

So line up and list your names now. Invite others too. :)

    Baang Coffee has free WiFi in Mall of Asia. But a big buncha bloggers won’t fit!

    I’ll be in the country after all. But, it’s our office/group of companies party. See y’all in January!

    @ jomar: That is awesome! I have a friend who is a big fan of Bo Sanchez. He’ll love this. :)

  12. Avatar for jomar jomar says:

    I think I can go.

    Hey, have you heard? I finally convinced Bo Sanchez (kerygma magazine’s funny preacher) to BLOG!

    http://bosanchez.ph — is his blog, he has the *celeb* advantage as his blog hits ave 20,000 hits a day since he began Nov.

    Well it really helps that he’s upped the ante and now does a DAILY VODCAST – youtube style called “Preacher in Blue Jeans”. Check it out – the link’s in his blog, too.

    “I’ll treat everyone to a round of Chickenjoy or Starbucks (that way I could get my card stamped)”. You just heard that from him.

    Thats a done deal… although I am not from California. Thanks that will make it a great get together. We appreciate that.

  22. Avatar for Abe Olandres Abe Olandres says:

    @ jayvee & seav

    This could all happen between 6PM to 2AM at MOA so there’s time for others to catch up.

    @ pogi

    Here’s the deal. If you could come down here on the 22nd from California, I’ll treat everyone to a round of Chickenjoy or Starbucks (that way I could get my card stamped).

    How’s that for a teaser? ;)

    @ marc

    Flying out? Are you immigrating? I thought you said it wasn’t cool to immigrate?

  23. Avatar for pogi pogi says:

    Who is dressing up as Santa Claus? A Christmas party needs Santa Claus. I am down for the photo-shot during the get together. Can I be the centerfold Yuga? I am a beautiful subject. I have a suggestion for dinner. How about Jollibee’s? I think that will be affordable for everyone. We are not all rich like some people.

    @ pogi

    I can’t categorically say yes or no. But people who went to previous meet-ups we have know what the chances are. :D

  30. Avatar for pogi pogi says:

    @ Yuga

    Are you going to treat everyone to this event since you are making the invitation?

  31. Avatar for Abe Olandres Abe Olandres says:

    hi estan, yup sure!

    @ others

    This is the only date on a weekend I can make it too (unless we go for a week day).

    MOA is huge and cozy we could hang out on so many places without having to worry about seats and space.

    This would be my first time to actually make it to a blogger meet-up. Hope it pushes through. :)

  35. Avatar for pogi pogi says:

    Are you going to pay for everyone? That would be a white Christmas for everyone.
