Hi everyone, good evening from here, i am happy to be part of this platform today.
I hope everyone is doing good and having a blissful new week already. Today marks a great day in my life as i came to realise that there is such a great platform like this.
In my life i have never had an encounter with any legit platform where i can just write articles and get rewarded for.
I am Gloria Effiong by name and i am 18 years old, i was born on the 22nd of february 2003 in the family of Mr. Akpan Effiong, i am the second daughter and the third child in my family.
I was born and raised in Lagos state in Nigeria but my parents are from Akwa Ibom state so i am automatically an Akwa Ibomite.
I started My early education at St. Francis pupils school in lagos and there i finish my grade 3 and then my parents had to change my school. I continued my grade 4 to 5 at sacred heart cathedral school at Apapa Lagos state where i obtained my First school leaving certificate (FSLC).
I started my secondary education at St. Mary girls college in lagos state and there i completed my secondary education and obtained both my junior secondary school certificate (JSSCE) And senior Secondary school certificate (SSCE).
I graduated out of the school as the best physical education student in my set and i was awarded for it with a little cash prize and other gift items.
Since i finished my secondary education, my parents were not buoyant enough to push me further with the university education so i decided to apply for a job in a school in Apapa in lagos where i worked as a creche teacher, taking care of the kids and i was paid for my services.
I only spent 6 months working there as a teacher and later left the job because i was not well paid.
I now traveled back to Akwa Ibom state to see my Dad and there i started learning another new trade. i am still working under my boss learning how to sew both male and female dresses which i am very much in love with what i do to survive on a daily.
I was introduced to steemit on the 17 of December 2021 by and there he helped sign me up though i could not write my first introductory post because it was getting late at night. He helped explain the function of all the keys and how i can use them.
He downloaded the keys as Pdf file and saved it in my phone and also told me not to expose my private keys to anyone because i might lose my funds and lose my account.
I am very happy that i have been able to explore this community and also seeing good and quality articles written by the users of this platform.
I am lover of good music and my favorite music art is Beyonce, i also love traveling a lot, meeting new people, singing, dancing, swimming and reading ancient stories, making simple fashion sketches and lots of other things i do for fun.
Well, unlike everyone else i hate lies, fake friendship, gossips and fake rumours, i do not want to find myself around hypocrites and in my life i have no room for racism.
I believe everyone was created by one true being and for this reasons i do not discriminate any religion or peoples believes.
Lastly i want to congratulate the Hive members and everyone here that is making this platform a lively place and also for their good and quality contents. I also want to thank for helping me sign up this platform and for bringing this opportunity to learn and earn from writing articles.
With the little time i have explored this platform i have been impressed with what i have seen here, unlike other platforms like Facebook, instagram and the rest of many others have not been able to reward their users for writing and blogging in their platform which is not really nice though they try to keep people in touch with each other.
One thing i like about this platform is that they blog mostly about the world of crypto currency and rewards their users in cryptos. They do not ask for peoples credentials and this makes everyone have control over everything they do here.
One thing i like most in my life is having control over my privacy and this platform makes it happen that i can control everything in my account here.
Thanks very much for reading through my first introductory post.
