Bloggers Meeting

Friday Night

On Friday night, I still hadn’t decided if I would go to the Blogger Meeting or not, but after a quick chat with Yashvin(@yashvin) on MSN Messenger, I talked to my dad and decided to go. That’s definitely a decision I won’t regret! :D

Saturday Morning

Woke up at 6 as usual, took a bath, dressed up and went to Chemistry tuition at 7 (Who the hell gave the teachers the idea to give tuition at that time on weekends? :@). Normally, I have an English tuition but I skipped it for this very special occasion. After tuition, Yashvin called me and I went to meet him near Caudan Waterfront. In his car were Dakshinee, Ashesh(@asheshr) and Pirbhay. We had an interesting talk about…(you guessed it!)…blogging! :P

At Flic en Flac

We arrived at Flic en Flac at 10:15 and saw that Jevin, Morinn(@Morinn) and Sun(@__Sun__) were already there. After some minutes, we went to Spar and bought some drinks and a football there. When we returned back, Stefan(@Chillisland) and his daughter were there. Shortly after, the Meetoo family; Avinash(@avinashmeetoo), Christina, Anya and Kyan joined us. Sheran, Dhaneesha, Reena, Michel, Tushal, Kervin and Kevina came later.

I swear, the only reason why I know how to play that game is because I’ve got it on my iPod! (Soundtrack: Metallica – Fade to Black \m/)

Treasure Hunt:

Deep in thought...

That was the best game!! Morinn and Jevin wrote really nice clues which got everyone thinking hard!! e.g. “I can sea you, Can you see me”, “Grass is greener on the other side, but what’s greener than grass?”

Congrats to Sun and Yashvin for winning the prize! (and apologies to Ashesh, who was my partner in the game. We’ll get it next time! ;-)

The Banner

At the end (well, almost at the end), we imprinted our hands on a piece of cloth that Yashvin had brought to make this wonderful banner.

Black Hands! xD

And finally, what’s without doubt the best picture:
