Yes! Finally Im blogging about this, I havta admit that Im not that efficient because the other bloggers had already posted bout this like days ago? AHHHH.. Anyways, where should I start?

First & foremost, I would love to thank Nuffnang for the passes and the wonderful trip in S'pore! Its my 1st time to SG and I really enjoyed myself (:
Thank you Nuffnang, loves! ♥

We depart at Nuffnang office around 9am if Im not mistaken, reached S'pore Link Hotel prolly around 4pm. Took our room keys and there we go! Yeap I dont have any picture because I wasn't in my cam-whore mood yet but don't worry, there are PLENTY of photos taken during that glamor night. Keep reading and you'll know. :)


All excited & dressed up!

Camwhored a little at Link Hotel's lobby & we then left to Pan Pacific ballroom!

What is Nuffnang Awards about?
It is actually to honouring the best of the blogosphere in our region, Nuffnang ran a 2 months worth of nominations and campaign to culminate in a GRAND blogger affair in Singapore.


Half part of the crowds.
More than 400 bloggers, celebrities, nuffies = the bomb!


We started off with taking a picture at the backdrop of The Nuffnang Awards.
Thanks Canon for the instant printing as well.


And.. the camera-session begun... :D

How they started growing, the effort they made and everyone that worked hard for it, I was really touched and impress at the same time.
