When is it too much?

I'm having a dilemma.

I've been given a couple of store credit to use to purchase items from a shop and my BIG problem is what to spend it on. I know, I know. There are more pressing problems in the world right now but this entry is about how I feel at the moment.

I know people who are among the Philippines' top bloggers and so I hear firsthand about their stories of how brands approach them, what they are offered and what they get. For a small, relatively unknown blogger like me, their stories sometimes make me green with envy. Whenever I express my awe, "you're so lucky", they tell me to just work hard for my time will come soon too.

...and slowly, it has. I think.

Bloggers' Talk

Last Tuesday, Cheyser, Aidx and I went to USEP to talk about blogging for my aunt's Introduction to Mass Communications class. We were a package deal since no one wanted to do it alone! And it was all our first time to give a blogging talk! I talked about the technical side of blogging--how to start a blog, blog hosts, kinds of blogs, etc. Aidx gave tips on blogging and photography, while Cheyser shared her experiences and benefits of blogging.

At first, Cheyser and I were terrified! We both hate public speaking. (I fear that people won't listen, so I find writing more comfortable) Aidx, on the other hand, is a mass comm student so it's a given. He is supposed to be outgoing! Haha. We even thought we'd just stay for an hour, but we ended up talking for the whole 2 hour class! So, hooray for baby steps toward conquering our fear of public speaking!

Thank you to my tita's class for having us and for being such great listeners! :)
