Posting this late, but last April 25, my blog celebrated its 12th year!
I have a lot, but allow me to share my top-of-mind....
12 favorite moments as a blogger:
1. All the cool events I was able to attend as a blogger
2. All the endorsement deals I got from brands I truly love
3. Getting invited to a Korean show as a blogger, and guested for a show with Korean celebrities including Sandara Park!
4. Meeting fellow bloggers turned lifetime friends!
5. All my travels for tourism and airlines, allowing me to explore our beautiful world as part of my work!
6. Surprise “blogger mails” that I never EVER expected I’ll receive when I first opened this blog: A refrigerator, phones and other gadgets, clothes from brands I really buy from, hotel vouchers and airplane tickets, to name a few!
7. You know that I buy my own fan meeting tickets, but as a fan girl it will always be an honor for me every time I get invited to shows as a blogger: from oppa fan meetings in Manila, to a Korean music festival where BTS performed, etc.
8. Do stuff I won't usually do, experience new things I never imagine myself trying! Like camping by the beach, bike on air, slide on ice to explore an ice village, or ride a hot air balloon!
9. In 2014, I think I was the only blogger invited for Taylor Swift’s backstage access / meet-and-greet for The Red Tour
10. Go on a luxury cruise for 7 days!
11. Meeting new friends, albeit only virtually, who have the same interests as I am! (That’s YOU!)
12. And actually call my passion project my fulltime work.
Thanks to Instagram (lol), this may not be an updated blog like it used to, I still want to celebrate this blog for giving me not only the opportunities I have now, but also for keeping my memories for me--The main reason why I opened a blog anyway!
For a small celebration, I am giving away my realme C12 mobile phone in Coral Red! (Used only for a blog feature). A HUGE thank you to realme for being one of the first brands that gave me a project again since the pandemic started.
To Join The realme Phone Giveaway:
1. Open to all supporters, old and new! I may not know all your faces but I have memorized your usernames especially when I always see you on my feed!
2. Must engage on my new posts on Instagram @anagon (no need to go back to old posts pls, no flooding pls!). Since most of my work is already on that page, will appreciate all the support for brands that trust me! ❤
3. Comment below what you want to see more on my blog, and put your IG username.
4. Tag your friends on my IG post with the first photo I used on this blog to join the phone giveaway!
5. Share this phone giveaway on your Instagram Stories. Tag me @anagon so I can cross-check entries! :)
Multiple entries allowed, as long as they are different suggestions and you tag people you really know (no spamming strangers pls!)
I’ll announce the winner before the month of May ends.
If you're new here, welcome! I hope you'll enjoy the ride! And to the ones who stayed throughout my different life changes and life phases... Thank you so much for supporting me all these years! You have a special place in my heart. ❤
사랑해!!!
