Meetup

I had THE best day today. This morning, before work, I went to a networking event in Soho for people working with media. I was a bit anxious at first.. "who to talk to?, will anyone talk to me? am i interesting enough?".

It turned out to be a really awesome event, and i am so happy i went even though i was doubting my decision when heading there. The venue was on a roof top terrance and we were served Mimosa (Bella: mimosa at dawn!!), croissants, sandwiches and coffee. Everything for free. There were about 30 people, who all had signed up through meetup.com, which by the way is the best website ever! It is a website for people living in London and anyone within the community can start an event that anyone can attend. Every event has a nische. Some are for new girls in the city(joined!), some are for entrepreneurs, others for art lovers, some for italian speaking people(i joined, might as well refresh my italian when in UK), some for the gay community, some for business networking and so on and so on. The greatest website for people who are new in town or just want to meet people.


Any how, I met some really nice people at the event, movie producers, reporters, 3D effect guys and a girl who had an agency for actors. A truly random crowd but i loved it!! Will meet up with one of the girls for drinks. 


 And YES, we did wear name tags.
