My First Time ...
You see those tickets up there? I got them for free :D And it's all thanks to Daniel also known as Gallivanter. Dan has some ticket for the Da Vinci, the Genius exhibition that's going on right now and all I had to do to get the tickets was go down on my knees and beg him for it ... hahaha ... ok, ok, I lied, all I had to do was blog about the exhibition and he so kindly gave me two free tickets for it :D Since anything free attracts me like a moth to flame, I decided to grab those tickets by writing a post about it.
Getting those tickets also marks the first time I ever met a blogger in person. I met Dan and his wife to be Emelda this afternoon to collect my tickets and I must say that they're a really nice and extremely friendly couple :D And I'm glad that I actually had my acne treatment done a day earlier, you can't expect me to meet people with acne on my face now can you? LOL!
It was great to actually see the face, not that I haven't seen your pictures before ... hehehe ... and to actually talk in person instead of just leaving words in the comment box. And Dan, thanks so much for the tickets. You can be rest assured I'll be going for the exhibition soon and dragging my wife along for it whether she likes it or not ... LOL!
To be honest, I never really thought I'd ever meet a blogger in person cos I'm pretty comfortable with my anonymity. It has nothing to do with being stuck up or anything, I'm just shy (hahaha) and the fact that I bitch about anything and everything and I don't want some disgruntled person hiring some hit-man to take me out or something. So being anonymous is the safer option for me. And the fact that Dan promised not to bring a camera helped quite a bit ... LOL!
All in all, I must say that it was an enjoyable meeting and it was really good to finally meet up with you and Emelda in person :D If I'm ever in the Eastin area maybe I'll give you a call and we can probably meet up for a cup of teh tarik or something. Thanks for the tickets :D
Before I sign off, I just couldn't help posting a picture of Pebbles getting into the Christmas spirit, not by choice anyway ... hahaha! And I also found out from Emelda today that Dan has already been in the Christmas spirit for quite a while now ... LOL!

I agree. Somehow I am not really that comfortable in meeting fellow bloggers face to face. I have to trying to analyse deep within if I am an anti social??

ReplyDeleteEmelda - It was great meeting you guys too :D You want to pinjam Pebbles? YOu have to stand in line behind Anny cos she's been hounding me to send Pebbles to her ... LOL! But I'm sure she and Gummi would make great pals :D
ReplyDeleteGallivanter - Consider it a deal :D Actually my job not that flexible la, I just bum off quite a bit ... LOL! Good to finally meet you in person :D
ReplyDeleteSamantha - A Sleigh huh? Now that is an excellent idea. I just might make one for Pebbles, errrrr ... now how am I going to find snow? LOL!
ReplyDeleteMaslight - LOL! Wifey and me puts Pebbles through all kinds of silly stuff ...
ReplyDeleteHahaha ... see, good thing Dan didn't bring a camera, otherwise I'd have to be wary of being shot! LOL!
Waterlearner - Well, I think I am anti-social la ... hehehe ... But I think it's probably due to me being shy :D
ReplyDeleteAnny - Hahaha ... Piper wants a girl friend? Ok, ok, nanti I ask Pebbles is she wants a boy friend ... hehehe ... but these days she's so much naughtier la, always barking and barking at all the cats in the neighbourhood ... LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnd she really isn't as fluffy as before after her grooming la. Waiting for her fur to grow again ...
Anny - You won't give up until I really pinjam her to you, ya? LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnny - Hahaha ... meet all my blogger friends? Mati la ... I know one of them wants to trip me at Tesco if I ever wear a stripe shirt la ... LOL!
ReplyDeleteAnny - Actually very true la ... they could be people I know or living around the same area as me ... LOL!
ReplyDeleteI thought it was Dan Brown who gave you the tickets, I would die of envy, lol!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't imagine meeting a fellow blogger, I am a shy person and a boring one, too. :-)
Marlene - LOL! I would have fainted if it was Dan Brown ...
ReplyDeleteI thought I was the firs one to comment on this entry. Rupanya, missed lah my comment.
