			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Finally made it to Bloggers&#8217; Taste of Asia last Thursday and it was a totally new experience. As always, I arrived late all thanks to the Cavite-Manila traffic but hey, good thing was I made it and already, there were like 300-400 people there. I&#8217;ve never been with so many bloggers before!</p>
<p>Unfortunately, I failed to follow most of PinoyBloge<a target="_blank" href="http://www.pinoyblogero.com/2007/08/23/a-mini-guide-to-attending-offline-blog-events-part-2/">ro&#8217;s Tips on what to do during blog parties</a>. The sheer number of bloggers including some of the big and famous ones made me feel overwhelmed. I really need to revive my socializing skills, sheesh! Besides, I also learned that during events like this, it&#8217;s best for blogger-from-the-province like me to bring someone along not just to keep me company but to introduce to other people as well.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, Taste Asia 2 was a great success! Kudos to Ms Aileen and SM Hypermarket.</p>
<p>Spent the night mostly with <a target="_blank" href="http://blog.ademagnaye.com">Ade</a> (who was all geared up to socialize but was frustrated, a bit), <a target="_blank" href="http://www.pinoymoneytalk.com/">PinoyMoneyTalk</a> whom I talked a few secrets about my so-called &#8220;blogging fame&#8221; and that lovely lady whom I shared the table with. A million apologies if I forgot your name and your blog, but it&#8217;s got &#8220;lethargic&#8221; on its name right? I&#8217;m still looking for it, a link love will come very very soon. (Curse this half-life memory of mine! <img src='http://turbo.jrocas.com.ph/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_mad.gif' alt=':mad:' class='wp-smiley' />  )</p>
<p>The other bloggers I ran into during the party were <a target="_blank" href="http://www.byahilo.com">Eric of Byahilo</a>, <a target="_blank" href="http://www.mysteryosa.com">Shari of Mysteryosa</a> and her little brother, <a href="http://ederic.tinig.com/">Ederic</a>, <a target="_blank" href="http://tesstermulo.com/">Dr. Tess</a>, and the great Man-Blog editor <a target="_blank" href="http://ballsofsteel.i.ph/">Steel</a>.</p>
<p>Now for some pictures I took during the party.</p>
