The Day I Met @surpassinggoogle (Terry) in Steemsummit

I still remember this amazing day, with a special surprise at night and an unforgettable adventure after. We were having Steem summit (A collaborative event spearheadee by @ybanezkim26, @thegaillery, and @legendarryl) where hundreds of Steemians gather together for this amazing event.

(How communities play a big role into user experience), Terry provided us a sweet inspirational message Steemit, the power of communities and about life.As a way to inspire us more during the event, I requested a video from @surpassinggogle to share an inspirational message to us participants. Along with @sndbox founders @hansikhouse and @voronoi inspirational video

SummitNot in my idea and nerves that @surpassinggoogle have a very special surprise to us Steemians. A very special gift that cost a lot. Yes, he flew here from Manila just to attend the event. He went here without anyone knowing he will be attending the . Just when we thought his video was enough for us to have during the event, we never knew we will be meeting a tangible @surpassinggoogle.

I'm one of the lucky members to stay after the event. I probably stayed there because most of the Steemians who also remained were friends I got closed to. @smaeunabs, @olaivart, @nikkabomb, @indayclara, @themanualbot, @ybanezkim26, @thegaillery, @legendaryll, @xaydtrips, @iamqueenlevita, @ninyea, and many more. There, we ha

There, we had a talk in one whole table. Sitting next to each other, with him being at the center. We threw questions, he answered. He asked questions, we responded. We had serious talks and funny ones. We discussed how will Steemit be in the next coming years and how could it solve the revenue monopoly of the existing social media sites.

After that, we had a dinner. Just when we thought it is pay to eat dinner, we're glad Terry shouldered all of the bill in his pocket. That was really selfless act that we were really thankful of. We're around 13 Steemians gathered so I'm pretty sure the bill was heavy to shoulder. He managed to pay them all.
