Best Cebu Blog Awards 2013: Third Time's A Charm

Best Cebu Blog Awards (BCBA) is now on it's 6th year. They say "the third time's a charm" and coincidentally, it's my third time to be nominated and be a finalist for this annual award under the food niche. Well, I don't have any expectations or hopes this year, but I'm grateful to Khonie for whatever she sees in me or rather my blog that is worthy to be nominated for this. Thanks a bunch, Khon! :D

The brains behind Best Cebu Blog Awards is Mark Monta of cebufitnessblog.com who founded and organized this along with the following bloggers:

Agnes Jimenez of empressofdrac.com
Bjorn Bernales of bjorncebuano.com
Gezelle Tapangan of geemiz.com
Chanel Imperial of shankybaby.blogspot.com
Rabsin dela Cruz of finlust.blogspot.com

BCBA, for me, is somewhat the benchmark for my blog’s existence. Barely a year into blogging back in 2011, I found my blog nominated for the BCBA. And somehow, Babe for Food has been consistently nominated yearly since.

I started blogging because I merely wanted to share my thoughts on food and

4th Annual Best Cebu Blog Awards

I've been blogging for around 7 months now and it's been really fun so far. No regrets. I believe this is truly something I've always wanted to do. What was initially just an outlet for my gibberish on food and eating has now become my memory bank and has developed a deeper sense of nationalism in me for Cebu and the Philippines. I hope my readers and everyone else can see (or read) that in my writing.

Being a competitive and adventurous person, I decided to nominate my blog for the Best Cebu Blog Awards this year on http://www.bestcebublogs.com/ although I think it was quite late because the nomination and voting started in October and I nominated mine in November close to the end of the voting period. Haha. So basically, I really didn't expect anything out of it. I just thought it was worth a try. Until....

I got an email from Best Cebu Blogs inviting me to the awards night which is later today at SM Conference Hall 5 pm. This was definitely a lovely surprise!

Thank you, dear readers and to everyone else who voted for me. I'm happy enough to be a finalist, one of 40 over more than a hundred bloggers. Incredible! I made it under the food and personal category. :)

I was told to prepare a speech in case I win but I haven't prepared anything because I don't really know what to say. Haha. I really hope to make it to the top ten!

Winners will be given trophies, certificate of recognition and a brand new Nokia unit and Globe Tattoo!
