Black Enterprise Host “Black Blogger Month” Kick Off
Last night was a glorious night, filled with bright lights, glitter, and happiness all over!!! Just a beautiful night!!!! Okay I’m overexerting a lot, but the night was fun :-). I went to the Black Enterprise “Black Blogger Month Kickoff” hosted by The PR Circle; sidenote – am I the only one who is wondering were all these months come from and who makes them up? Any ways it was held at the newly renovated 40/40 club in Flatiron, which actually made the event that much better.
The event honored top black bloggers (so in my mind I was honored also) and it was a huge networking event. A lot of prominent people were in the building and everyone seemed to really be enjoying themselves.
The 40/40 club was actually much nicer than I expected. I had never been before it re-opened, but I heard it was just a small fancy sports bar, this was totally not the case. Everything was on point, even the DJ (who played my new guilty pleasure song that I’m embarrassed to admit that I love). The waiters were kind of snobby, which I didn’t mind since it weirdly fit the environment. Trendy people plus trendy spot also makes for a good time!
Ciroc sponsored the event, so it was open bar, which always helps people network. Since it seemed most people knew each other, I sat in the back and thought of ways to interrupt people conversation so I could introduce myself. Luckily the event got packed and people were sitting near me so I just start chatting with them, which worked perfectly!
Overall it was a great event and I’m glad I went (I almost didn’t go since TWO of my friends flaked on me SMH), but I have learned never let others stop me from enjoying myself!
Until next time xoxo!!!
