RosariOko

Last night I won BEST PHOTO BLOG at the 2011 Philippine Blog Awards. 

I was actually late for the event because traffic was gridlocked in our area due to the Azkals & LA Galaxy. I couldn’t help but think that David Beckham probably passed by my street, hehe. 

When I arrived, it was barely 15 minutes when they were already announcing the nominees for the Best Photo Blog. RosariOko was called and I was flustered & all I could think of was that in their email invite we are asked to prepare a speech! I didn’t have any prepared since I got home from the Red Horse gig at 530 that morning!!!

All I remember saying is that our local musicians are a treasure and they deserve to be photographed and I dedicated it to all the other photographers who use photos as a means to inspire other people through the world wide web.

Thank you to the Philippine Blog Awards for recognizing the importance of blogs year after year. :)

AND TO Erick Dantoc, who has three awesome nominations in this year’s Blog Awards which includes his music photography site, thank you for this picture!!!

A special mention to party master Jay Server, who forced me to celebrate last night which ended at 6:30 in the morning!!! It was just right being surrounded by all my friends in the music industry who kept on saying they were really proud of me. I’m so so so blessed!!!
