Our first gathering
Written by Amutha on March 18, 2008 – 11:48 am
15.03.08 was our very first gathering for MINDSBLOG. Our real idea was to have a small party celebrating the victory of Barisan Rakyat :P, but somehow the idea got evolved and turned out to be a gathering of admin, authors and readers of MINDSBLOG. That would explain the short notice. Nevertheless, I thank everyone who attended the event.
First to be in Naga’s were Mahen and Raaja. Oh yea, don’t miss Mahen with his new look (without mustache) - he really shocked Praveen and me. We were just catching up with some stuff when Raj showed up. Then, Mathavan, Saravanan, Puvanan and Kavilan showed up. Praveen was late, and I still feel we didn’t bully her enough (as a punishment). Ponnu escape! Then another two blog readers joined us. JD joined us up a bit later - after the lunch.
It was already 1.30pm when we started with our lunch. Most of us took chicken briyani rice, some took mixed rice but some just refused to give in to the temptation, and just stick with their drinks.
Okie, it was not all about food - just in case if you are wondering. The food was just the first part of the gathering :P. We discussed about MINDSBLOG’s future plan, and I was delighted that everyone had something to share. Seriously in real, you guys are as good as behind those blogs.
I’m not very sure if I am actually allowed to post the entire discussion here, suffice to say that we have decided on:
- opening up the registration for subcribers/members of MINDSBLOG
- new terms to qualify as an author of MINDSBLOG
- creating a customized t-shirt for MINDSBLOG
- an ambitious large-scale charity project
Yes, beside posting articles related to Malaysian indian’s, we are going to work together in real life too. The idea of creating MINDSBLOG was not just to bring Malaysian Indian Bloggers (MIB) closer, but also to give back something to our community. Behind all that fun and laughter, we want to show we are a group of serious young adults who are capable as well.
Thanks again guys, and to those who missed this first gathering, make sure you guys spare some time for the next one.
