Hey guys, you know what? I just won a contest!!!
Well, not today. But the day before yesterday. And It's
's delegation contest!
Usually every morning, as soon as I wake up, even before I brush my teeth :P I open a Steemit tab on my laptop. Yesterday I was just checking my feed and saw an anime drawing. I always admire them because I'm a fan and my hand slid to the upvote button. When I clicked it, some kind of weird bar appeared. I was like ''what hell is this?'' but I remembered later that I have seen it before. There's no way... I checked my wallet rubbing my eyes. Then I saw my wallet.
How could? I called my sister and showed it to her and she said it might be SPAM. ''Haa! What kinda spammer would send SP to others?'' (seriously, we both are super idiots). Then I saw the reply from one of the people I love the most in her. ''Yun won the 700 delegation from Karen. Congrats''
Can you imagine how I felt? No need for words. Here's how I felt.
Actually, what I appreciate more than the delegation are Karen's words. Just kidding, I'm so grateful for the gift. But she made a description about me and mentioned me in her dlive video. Even though she made up my username XD (opened her mouth too much in y and g) I'm so moved by her words. This is one of the rare moments someone mentioned me with respect, being a child and all.
So a big hug to
, thank you so much. I totally adore you <3
Now... back to business
I'm not just writing this to blabber about my luck. I have something to tell you. Now I have some decent amount of steem power for a month. Now my vote has increased from $0.01 to $0.1 so it means I'm kinda valuable. I have to use wisely or otherwise I'll be wasting generous giveaway.
I'm looking for quality posts from good authors who don't receive what they deserve. I know that even now my power isn't that great but I'm trying to help them as I could. Something is better than nothing.
Still, I haven't told you what's in my mind. This was an idea of my sister, but she couldn't take an action for it. She gave me the permission to start it because she doesn't have much time and I'm almost catching up her
.In Steemit, there are many good writers who wrote blogs about different things, from different countries, in different ages. But there is a rare category of writers I'm so happy to see here. I can comment on their blogs without hard thinking, I can share my ideas with them freely and most importantly, I can help them and give them my opinion without feeling awkward.
Now you might be thinking, who are they?
They are what I am. The future generation.
Recently, I have seen many teen bloggers here. When my sister is first having a taste of steemit, there weren't many steemians around her age. But now, I see a few introduction posts with youngster faces every day. Every one of them is interesting and have many things to share about their life and school.
Now let me tell you why would I want to give them a hand.
I would like to back to go back 6 months to the past. When my sister started her journey in here, she was alone and lost. Nobody was there to help her, give her guidance or anything. All she knew was this is blogging platform and she kept on posting google articles and commenting ''follow for follow, upvote me''. She had a very hard time.
Step by step slowly, she learned basics about this platform, all by herself. She started to write quality posts and from it, she was able to make some money and got to know some kind people. From the support she got from them, she reached her place now where she's standing.
I didn't have such a hard time because I knew the basics and my sister got my back. But I don't think too many youngsters who arrive here the beginning of their journey will be that smooth. There are many communities here to help the newbies from their countries, especially I love the Philippine community. But what about the young faces from countries that not-so-popular-here, like us? They will give up, not knowing how awesome this platform is.
And there is another reason. I know that most of you are not like this and we couldn't stand up without your help. But some people don't like take their hats off and listen to the short ones. No offense to all of my lovely elders, but I couldn't help on noticing that.But I understand it's reasonable. Who wants to read a post about a child blabbering about his school life when there are more important things here to do? But I like listening to them, as a child. So I think a when grown-ups not in sight, I can help them a little.
So, ladies and gentlemen, I want to start a community for teenagers in here.
I want to build a place that they can feel like home, they can share their ideas freely and have friendships with their peers from other countries. They can write posts in there. And I can support their posts by reading and upvoting. I want to collect all of them into one place, so none of them will be feeling abandoned. They can gain many things in here while building their financial platform.
The most important thing I might have a big dream but I can't achieve it alone. I don't have the slightest idea to do that and I'm still a little fish here. So I need your help guys, A LOT. Please give me your opinion and ideas to me. Every word from each of you is welcome. If you have a plan mind, please let me know.
I want to give something this place which I love and respect a lot when I have the chance. Up to this time, I gained far more than I thought I would from here, so it's my turn gave my help in return.
So this is what I want to say. I couldn't put all of my thought into words. I'm not so good at handling words so forgive me. And also I humbly apologize if I had said something wrong.
I would appreciate if you share this message with others. Then it will add a more meaning and effort to my dream.
And I like to take this chance to give my thanks to all my supporters, ,
,
, and many more. Without you guys, I wouldn't be able to stay here like this. Salute to you!
