Lebanese Bloggers GetTogether 001
By admin N : What a night it was! We were very pleased to attend the first bloggers meeting by leb aggregators 3 days ago and meet many of you. The event started with a screening of a mini-bio slide prepared by each blogger to introduce the fellow bloggers to their page. Then we listened to 3 guest speakers: Ragmag’s editor in chief, a representative from Communicate magazine and LBC blogs. Then we went off to mingle among the crowd and we met some fellow bloggers like Gino, Rita Kamel, Sareen Akharjalian, and Liliane assaf (aka funkyozzi). It was generally a fun, laid back event were we got to enjoy good company and good music. I also did spot some familiar faces in the crowd, like Teressa Eid and Mohamad Hijazi, HI!
Being a food lover, I would like to say thank you to Zaatar w Zeit who were kind enough to cater the event as well as a special thank you to all of you who brought snacks.
On the other hand, after congratulating Leb agg on this great initiative, I have some comments to make.
First of all, I did not appreciate how some people didn’t even bother to shut up when Liliane took hold of the mic. We, as a critical eye to our society, should at least know the basics like how to shut up when someone is speaking. Not cool man, NOT COOL.
Second of all, what’s with the bloggers who thought they were too cool to attend this event, easy on the ego guys. We are supposed to be the divas, not you *hair flip*
Last but not least, just a quick suggestion, I think this event could have been better. Most of us didn’t know each other and we were all kind of shy to go to another person and just introduce ourselves. So we came up with the idea of having a Q&A, like each blogger(s) takes the platform for a certain amount of time to introduce his/her blog and then people can ask them questions and make propositions. Why not?
Looking forward to see you again the soonest!
THanks for this post! And thanks for the suggestion! I love the idea, in fact, this was merely a get together and kick start kind of event, I would love to hear more suggestion on how the next event can be more to the bloggers liking! SO the Q&A sounds like a cool idea
Till next time
Cheers!
No, nooo! *hair flip*
No diva here and would have loved to attend!
Just like I would have loved to march for Women on January 14 but I was 7 months pregnant then and was not allowed. Couldn’t even go to the meeting point because my one-year old had a fever the night before and didn’t sleep all night!
Mommy Drama all the way!
Now a *hair flip* is in order
Then came GetTogether 001… Very very interesting and appealing…. Again, 8+ months pregnant and all the pains that come with it didn’t allow me to attend.
No huge ego. Just a huge, real huge belly!
OK, still, a little bit of a diva
One more *hair flip* for the road
HAHA!!!! you’re super hilarious!!
an itsy bitsy one 
first, you weren’t one of the bloggers we’re pointing to.. arrogant bloggers are known to everyone
second, wishing you good luck with delivering your baby, we’d love to have 1 more fan
lol! I know, I’m not even remotely as famous
But I just loved the post and I really, really wanted to flip my hair a few times! lol
Oh, and trust me, the one at home and the one in the oven will both be fans. Mommy rules in this castle… Ahem (yeah right).
hahaha!! we can’t love you more!! and we can flip hair together whenever you want
It was lovely to meet you too! And the suggestion sounds really cool!
Have the exact same comments. I hope the next one will be more organized!
Maybe you were being harsh on those who did not attend – I had no clue the event was happening, and even if I did I currently have personal circumstances hindering me from any social acitvity… Oh, and I didn’t have time to have my hair cut for 2 months, so at least I have some hair for a supposed “hair flip”… This being said, I like your blog a lot….
Thank you Tarek.. We’re glad to have you here
