Naija Bloggers Party Update

Happy new week everyone! I promised an update on the Naija Bloggers Party which is why I am posting this update. Actually this morning is very busy for me but I just had to create time to do this short post before peeps like afrobabe go strip for me here o!,lol!

The party was not a party in the sense of you know dancing, boogying and all that. I’d rather call it a ‘get together over drinks thingy’. I had suggested we hung out at the beach but most peeps didn’t buy the idea(so I was told)and so we had to settle for the bar thing.
Anyway, It was still great to meet and chat with fellow bloggers. Even though we hadn’t met prior to the party, some bloggers already feel like family to me and it was cool to finally put a face to some of them. There was unnaked soul(shy guy), manda(ol’ pal), obi (blog phantom), writefreak, favoured girl, Tayo, Fantasy queen, dscribe, dscribe’s sister(also a blogger but I forgot her name), Omohemi, jaycee, che-e-ly, Babs and who else(cant remember any more). Overwhelmed naija babe, laspapi and simplynuttie came later after I had left but we spoke over the phone.

Of note is the fact that most bloggers I met are really very good looking, nice, open and friendly.

Sorry I have to stop here. I said I was going to make this short remember? So enjoy the pics guys (Some bloggers want to remain anonymous and i had to respect their wishes so i didnt tag the pics). And afro…nobody shagged anyone(at least at the party venue) and with the cost of their drinks there I doubt if anyone got drunk(I left to early to know anyway).

Be good you all.

Anyway there will be many more by God's grace.

i deliberately stayed out on the photo session cos i wasn't sure i wanted to be on visual scene.

True to u Princess; Bloggers, we fine gan! i wish i got close to anyone but time no dey. I had to run back to my office.

As to you, I always tot u were nice and warm by simply reading ur posts and reality no lie, U r beautiful, plus u seem really kind-hearted (my suspicion sha)

Finally, retain those dimples; dem dey make me kolo!

Pyeri Boy said...

This party was my idea and i didnt show due to circumstances beyond my control. But i am glad yall had fun.

Big ups to Tayo for executing the vision. (love you man)

Some of us will meet again at the Future Awards.

Carlang said...

Lol.
I'm sooo glad that i didn't know of this party until after it happened.
I'm not sure i would have been able to resist the urge to turn up.
Maybe masquerade as a waiter!.

Looks like you all had fun.
And no one kissed anyone?

You're all lucky i wasn't there.
What with all the cute ladies in the picture i would have had to be restrained.

That includes you Princess.

Happy New year!!

shhhh...cough...wink...nudge... said...

Wow! Nice pictures!
I didn’t no about the party, but as I don’t exactly blog, I guess it would have bin odd to turn up?
Well maybe if the food was free. ;)

Naapali said...

So where did u hide the ugly bloggers? Or did your camera fade out on those ones. It is hard to believe that all the Naija bloggers can be that good looking (fine boys and gals).
So Princesa, confess, where the ugly ones at?

UnNaked Soul said...

It was GREAT meeting all them cute and beautiful blogger, so tempting they are, you want to take them home and keep them forever.

Princessa, you blew my cover oh, you sexy thing.

we should all do this again...

Naija bloggers are the finest, the boys & the darlings...
