Blogger Interview: Jue & Hanie

Hey guys and girls! This is story of an interesting event when my editor, Azham Vsvc assigned me to set up an interview session with TWO best friends + allied blog writers Jue and Hanie from Jue & Hanie's Blog! The meeting point was at Nando's Restaurant KLCC right after these career ladies clocked out from their offices nearby, so busy they were and still are!





Our main agenda was to hang out in real life since the three of us have only seen each other "on line" but somehow it ended up like an interview session. The truth is I was nervous to finally confronting Jue and Hanie for the first time so I sounded very much like a reporter. 

My questions were not steaming hot as these Peri-Peri sauces; it was just a dire curiosity to know how they started blogging and the gist of our interview session has already been concluded by Jue and Hanie in their blog post here. We had fun in getting to know each other and exchange ideas on how we operate and manage our blogs. 

Jue and Hanie are so sweet; no hesitation in sharing their unique ways of "blog walking" and replying bloggers' comments to me at all. To trace back on how our "blogging-relationship" began...wow it would take a while! One thing that caught my attention back then was the fact that both of them run the blog as TWO AUTHORS and they told me that they will not FOLLOW any blog unnecessarily. They prefer "mutual visit" rather than the "I FOLLOW YOU, FOLLOW ME BACK" basis, which I later adopted and applied the idea. 





It was indeed a productive meeting but too bad that another close blogger mate of mine Saiazuan did not have the chance to join us. It is okay, I will try to organize a proper Blogger Meeting and gather other blogging mates in a near future hopefully. Thank you once again Jue and Hanie for the special Nando's treat, I will return the favor one day okay hehe. I really hope that our "blogging-relationship" would last and needless to say...the two of you are AWESOME! Until we meet again, take care and God bless.
