May 17, 2010 –I was surprised to get hits from a certain link of mb.com.ph. I checked it out and saw that the Blog-o-Rama’s feature of Between Bites came out already. It was a manic Monday at work but I was so thrilled to start that week with a silver lining 😉
Annalyn Jusay-Zoglmann writes for the Blog-o-Rama space in Manila Bulletin where it features different online interests, particularly blogs and bloggers. Even before I ever met Ajay, I’ve been a regular reader of her site, Ajay’s Writing on the Wall. She knows this because without warning in one of the events I attended as a newbie blogger in 2007, I recognized her, approached her and told her myself 😉
That evening when I got home, I went inside my room and saw the Manila Bulletin newspaper clipping of the Blog-o-Rama piece placed neatly on my table. A few minutes later, my youngest sister Joanne rushed to my room and told me in an animated energy how she chanced upon the feature. I never told my sister that I had that “interview.”
She was in my dad’s office for her “summer job” and for some odd reason she decided to pick up the Manila Bulletin newspaper sitting on his desk. It was something she wouldn’t normally do, she kept telling me. She was browsing through it and was about to stop but decided to see the Tech portion (which again is really unusual because that’s not her interest). She is not the type to bother but eventually flipped through the page where she read my name.
She did a double take. What a coincidence! She showed my dad and both of them read it. More than anything, that’s really a proud moment for me –my family chancing upon my name on a local major broadsheet by themselves. Big deal? Yes, it’s a big deal to me.
BIG, BIG, BIG THANKS Ajay for giving me a space on your Blog-o-Rama column in the Manila Bulletin broadsheet!!!
Congrats to you and Matt on the safe delivery of baby Lucy! 🙂
To my wonderful shobe, HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! 🙂 Achi LOVES YOU.
