Jehzeel Laurente once blog about being influential and what really an influential blogger is. To sum up, an influential bloggers are ones who made a big impact in the blogosphere, not just their blogs, but also their personality as a blogger.

For me, these blogs has left a trademark when you say “Influential.” Find out why.

1. Project 52 Weeks – A video blog of an aspiring film maker Micaela Rodriguez. From humor parodies to romance, project52weeks never fails to make audience entertain. A little tidbit information about Mica is that she is the only Filipino Director who made it to the Top 10 Online Indie Film Festival based in Canada. Please support her and vote for her film. Make Filipinos proud!
2. Facebuko.com – What else to do aside from Facebooking? Head now to facebuko and read hilarious fake conversations made by Jonas Roque between celebrities. My all-time favorite part of this blog is the chit chat talk between Chacha Bulilit and Miguel De Guzman. I remember reading this blog way back during my boring training days which always made my day complete

3. When In Manila – A nearly jack online news starring Vince Golangco which blogs about hilarious fake news. Sure this guy is a hunk! *runzz Hannah came* I first met Vince in La Union from Jonel’s Surfing event. He looks so serious back then, until I saw his blog and wow humor videos on the way!
4. Ganda Ever so Much – Fresh from General Santos, Orman shares nice to know information with a twist of kinkiness in his blog ganda ever so much! I met him in during Davao Food Appreciation Tour and I can’t forget his darna moment during our Zipline adventure! Then I started stalking his blog. It also turned out that he is friend with my previous Clinical Instructor in College. What a small world!

5. Rabsing – Ricky Dela Cruz is a blogger from Cebu. He created a noticing trademark when I met him during the Philippine Blog Awards 2009 in Cebu. He wears this appealing suit which made him look like a candidate for being a Mayor. He’s really got talent in singing! I wish to guest in his blog soon as his duet!
6. Kusina Maria – I always wanted to know how to cook. I even tempted to enroll in a short course cooking class. Good thing Kusina Maria exist which gives juicy information about delightful foods! When I met Ria Jose in Davao, I can’t help myself but to get awed with her knowledge while she talks about food. She’s indeed a talented and sexy chef!

7. The Creative Dork – I love arts! I first saw him when he made a comment in one of my blog posts. Robbie of The Creative Dork catches my attention upon visiting his one of a kind designed blog. Real creative but surely not dork I hope this guy would gift me a wordpress theme soon.
8. Foodie Manila – What I like more in this blog is that they capture the food so nicely in a matter of making you really drools. Foodie Manila founded by Carlos Palma, has now several contributors binded to express their love for food and food photography!

It should be 10 right? I’ll update this soon. I already have 2 blogs in scratch but if you want to change my mind, just leave a comment and I might consider your blog in my list 9 and 10!

Events and Corporate Video, Budget hotel in Makati, Pinoy Party Food, Copyediting Services, PR Agency Philippines, Budget Travel Philippines, Send Gifts to the Philippines, Black Friday Deals, Roomrent – units for rent, Search Profile Index, and Corporate Events Organizer.

Bloggers from Philippines

It has come to my attention that Nuffnang Asia-Pacific Blog Awards featured a Win an Exclusive to Invites to Uniquely Singapore. Together with my blogpals, we career the Pringles and Uniquely Singapore blog posts and thinking positively, we prepare our passports.

Can someone tell me what exactly are these? It looks like cargo ships. But cargo ships of what. Interesting

Arrival time at Changi Airport is 9:20 in the morning (no time difference from PH). Changi airport is way peaceful than of Manila. No picture taking allowed but I attempted and a lady-like-lesbian airport officer come and told me to delete the photo I took.

At the waiting area, while everyone is lined up in the Money Changer booth, Nuffnang Co-Founder, Ming Shen, welcomes us Filipino bloggers.

Ming Shen with Jehzeel Laurente

This is it. I am wowed. It’s time to go Link Hotel. I still can’t believe that my feet is touching the land of Singapore. The feeling is great and the atmosphere is good. Trees are everywhere. No single piece of trash.

On our way to Link Hotel, I am really awed by the cars as it looks like they are all brand new. I also notice that there is no smoke coming from the vehicles.

Due to curiosity, we asked a Singaporean taxi driver why is it that all vehicles in the country are clean. He told us that it’s part of their Road Rules and Regulations. Have a clean car and wash it at least twice a day. *wowed*

At the Link Hotel, everyone is waiting for 2 o’clock, the time of check in. Link Hotel is one of the prestigious botique-style hotel in Singapore located at Tiong Bahru.

Frances enjoyed looking at the photos while at Link Hotel.

Hot sunny day welcomes us. We headed to the nearest food chain in Tiong Bahru road.

Jehzeel, Mica and Yoshke.

While in PH duck is expensive and served in selected restaurants, in SG, duck is an ordinary food which can be bought anywhere at a cheap price.

Char Siew Mee (Asado) for $2.50

The food satisfies our stomach. We are hyper and energetic, enough to do camwhoring. The place we chose is covered with trees and grass, so much to relax after being full from the char siew.

Clockwise: Maki, Hannah, Yoshke, Jehzeel, Mica, and My Brute live action.

What comes after camwhoring is exhaustion. Finally, the clock hits the target time of checking in. Together with my assigned roomate Mica, we immediately unpack our luggage. The room has a big television but we did not use it; instead, we listen to the relaxing music from iPod and get some rest.

Mirror camwhore.

Suddenly, we realize that both of us didn’t bring soap, so we plan to buy soap at the nearest store. And we found about this Cheers mini store (located on 1st floor of Link Hotel). But OMFreakinGGuh how come they don’t sell soap!! What the freakin hell!!

We look idiot looking for soap until someone told us that Singaporeans don’t use bar soap which we are trying to look for because they uses liquid soap!

Time for some rest in preparation for the biggest event ever held by Nuffnang, the Asia-Pacific Blog Awards.

Bloggers from Australia

I’m pretty sure they are bloggers from Malaysia. It’s a back shot while we camwhore at the stage. Joining them at the photo op would be fun, but we didn’t had the chance to sneak in.

Pan Pacific Hotel

Pan Pacific Hotel served their best food starting with nonstop bread and butter, appetizer consist of ham, tomatoes and other veggies, main dish of chicken with mushrooms, veggies, delectable corn, and mashed potato (not sure if it’s potato), and a sweet dessert.

Awards night were also presented by Allan Wu, J C Sum & ‘Magic Babe’ Ning, and indie band Electrico.

Two pinoy made it to the top. Filipino Australian Arnold Aranez (A pinoy in Australia) of Mr Gadget won the Best Geek Blog and Ferdz Decena of Ironwulf won the Best Travel Blog.

Xiaxue bags 3 awards during the night under Most Influential, Best Blog Design, and Region’s Best Blog.

Other winners include Bonito Chico for Best Blog Shop, Kennysia Best for Entertainment Blog, Joanne Peh for Best Celebrity Blog, Childhood101 for Best Parenting Blog, Lady Melbourne for Best Fashion Blog, ieat-ishoot-ipost for Best Food Blog, and The Doodle Blog for Best Hidden Gem. Jayden bags the $5000 for the Best Krrunchy Video.

It’s a long day and I really didn’t feel tired. Probably, I don’t want to end the day and take more photos from the event.

Congratulations to all the winners and Nuffnang for making this big event possible! You can check out other photos from this album: Nuffnang Asia Pacific Blog Awards Night Photos.

Teens are in their dress to kill outfit. Looking at them makes me wonder why girls get pregnant at early age. Party outfit of the teens makes me wonder if they are really partying a lot. Young generation like them are voluptous.
