First of all I would like to thank
Ritu blogger of
TheIndianBeauty for allowing me to use these photos for my blog which was clicked by her camera ^_^. At the moment my old digital camera which I used to use is for now not working and these days I have been using a phone camera which clicks horrible photos indoors. Since this event was indoors, my phone camera was of no use and some how I won't allow myself to use those horrible photos for my blog or for any blog for that matter haha *sad laugh*.
Now to the event post!
Indiblogger's site was doing an event with
PANTENE for Indiblogger members for women (If your a blogger in India then you MUST check
Indiblogger and register your blog there. Great contests and events happening for each and every state which the
Indiblogger members can participate ^_^.) and I was one of them to fill in one of the few seats which was left. This event was held in
ITC Sheraton Hotel in
Saket from 11am to 5:30pm. I knew that I was going to be late cause first it was SUNDAY and second I had to take my dog for a walk for his so called business, feed him breakfast and then take a shower and get ready and the whole make up applying took me more then 30mins LOL. How long does it take for you to get ready? (Be honest here lol).
I was in the metro and some how was not in the mood to go because
Saket is so far away from where I live and secondly, I was feeling plain lazy but still I went and when I was about to reach the
Saket Metro Station I bumped into
Apoorva blogger of
KalaPalette and her sister there who were also on their way for the same event :D.
Now you must be wondering "err...what the?" in the first picture above. When this was happening in front of me, all I could think of was, "This is such a waste of toilet paper..." lol. By the time we reached there, there was some contest activity happening called
MUMMY where we had to form a group and choose one person to wrap the whole toilet paper roll sets that we were given and it sure was fun...to watch! XD.
Oh God, this photo makes me laugh so much. Love how
Shalini blogger of
BeBeautilicious is looking so funny and cute while getting all rolled up in toilet paper haha.
Plus, someone like me who arrived a tad bit late so everything was happening so fast that I just watched while all the women in the event started rolling out toilet paper and sticking stick on notes on them.
And who won?
The youngest blogger, 13yr old Shreeya Sharma who blogs about her art work and creativity :D.
Don't remember his name but surely remember his face. Saw him in the
Indiblogger + DOVE event last time. This man was entertaining us and guiding us on what the next thing we were going to do. There was a different room behind where hair spa was happening. All the women were given numbers on a piece of paper so whenever their number appeared in the huge screen, they had to go for their "hair spa" which was basically
Shampoo and Conditioning with
PANTENE NATURE FUSION plus blow drying of the hair.
After that there was a
30 Seconds Introduction where the screen showed the name of the person and that person had to get up and were given a mic where they had to introduce themselves to everyone and there was few lines that they had to read and if they did that properly then a surprise gift/prize was given :D. I myself personally was shit scared of what I was going to say if my name popped up >_<. And yes, my name popped up in the huge screen so I got up and took the mic and introduced myself then I had to read the lines on the screen and for that I had to tell everyone that I wasn't wearing my specs to I walked all the way towards the screen to read the lines and for that I was given a small surprise gift! :D. I was surprised and full of joy and thanked the Indiblogger guy for handing me the little surprise gift woohoo! By the way if your wondering what the gift was, it was a small battery operated head massaging machine :D.
This picture shows that there was a balloon bursting activity or something like that. This was before I arrived so can't say much about that. After 2pm the lunch was served. Sadly, I forgot to click photos of the food so in that part no food photos. The food was great. Both veg and non veg was there. Biryani, paneer dishes, fish yellow curry, salad, dessert was gulab jamuns, ice cream, kulfi, and jallebies :D.
And then this pretty Dr. Lais Koelle from Brazil talked about the history of PANTENE and the NATURE FUSION product and the whole goodness about the product. And specially explained us about the Cassia Plant which is one of the main ingredients added in PANTENE's Nature Fusion line.
After that we all were given flowers and a flower pot where we had to do flower arrangement and few stuff to decorate and create a pretty flower something - something in the end, ours looked like this. I know I know, no need to be polite and lie that ours look pretty. Ours looked weirdest is what it looked in reality lol. We laughed, we gossiped and we laughed some more. I, myself enjoying the pretty flowers, started making jokes and wearing few left over flowers on my hair lol.
We were served coffee and tea with cookies later on. Met new bloggers and made new blogger friends! :D. No matter how many followers you have in your blog, there's a different feeling all together when a person comes up to you and tells you how much they like reading your blog and some how makes my life feel so complete! Making me feel that my life means something and worthwhile! Yes, I am such an emotional person XD.
Yashodhara Lal, the author of "Just Married, Please Excuse" she was talking about Happer Collins contest for GETTING PUBLISHED and informing us that if anyone of us is interested then we can participate :D. Do check that out if your interested ^_^.
And then in the end we all received a
PANTENE gift bag and inside there was a Shampoo and Conditioner bottle of their newly launched
PANTENE NATURE FUSION hair care line and a green zip pouch and an
Indi Blogger + Pantene T shirt which I was wearing while I was clicking this pic lol. And we all received a
Paper Sky Balloon from
PANTENE. Its a balloon made out of paper which you gently, carefully unfold and there is a flat stand where you place a t-light and you have to make a wish and then release it into the dark night sky. I'm very excited about this one because I have seen it in loads of K-Dramas where people get together and light their paper balloon and makes a wish and of course romance happen as well because its a K-Drama! haha.

This is how the
Paper Sky Balloon looks like and when you make your wish, you release this and it goes up. In the end, I had so much of fun thanks to
Indiblogger and the
PANTENE people. And ladies, if any of you reading this who attended this event were there then please leave a comment down below with your blog's address and I will follow you back ^_^.
Loads of love,
