I am really good at keeping a secret. I mean really good.
I got a phone call from Kate Moore, a producer at Cityline asking me if I wanted to take part in a special show focused on bloggers and social media. I tried to be all cool and calm, but I was doing the Hammer dance the whole time we talked. Cityline is launching a new feature on their website called, Blogger of the Month, and Kate said I was going to be the first one {cue more happy dancing and add happy claps}. She and Patrick Reynolds {yes the Patrick} came to my house to film the segment. It was so much fun!
Then came the hard part: I could not tell anyone. It was not easy but I did it. I so wanted to crack on the drive in with Christine, Christine , Ana and Vanessa but I was a vault.
The audience was packed with many familiar faces and some new: design bloggers, food bloggers, beauty bloggers and ‘mommy bloggers’.
Cityline encouraged tweeting throughout the show and had our tweets on a large screen in the studio. Fun
Tracy Moore was on her laptop throughout the show too.
The show’s guests included my fabulous boss, Erica Ehm, design diva Leigh-Ann Allaire Perrault, beauty expert Tracy Nicole Peart and chef Claire Tansey. Each segment connected to social media in some way. I loved it. My favourite part of the show was when the ladies dished on their social media dos and don’ts.
Oh....and the part when I was on. I was so nervous because I knew Tracy would ask me a question but had no idea what it could be. I *think* I handled it well though!
After the show we went to the super fabulous Ritz Carlton Hotel for a tweetup. I’m not gonna lie, it was fantastic!
I can’t wait to see the show at 9:00 EST Tuesday, March 29th. I hope you watch too.
If you do not get Cityline {poor you!!} then you can watch online at www.cityline.ca. I will have more info on my blog about how you can be Cityline's next blogger of the month!
Also? I can’t believe that I wrote about always wanting to be on Cityline here, and now I actually have been. I can’t tell you how incredibly lucky I feel. I need you to pinch me. Wait, no I don’t, because if this is all a dream, then I don’t want to wake up.
