Game: Spiral Knights
Heya! I’m Josh, a 19 year old (soon going 20) from the Philippines. Feel free to call me by my username, ‘Anima’ too if you want. I actually have some friends who call me by that . 😄
I pretty much found Steemit through a friend when she shared her blog to me and a couple of other friends. At first, I thought it was just another blog like WordPress where people can share their thoughts and experiences. I did start off with WordPress a few years ago after a teacher required us to put some entries as a course requirement. I enjoyed posting there because I like to share my thoughts on some topics, but it didn’t really keep my interest that long since there wasn’t really anyone there to read my outputs. So when I found out that Steemit had an active community which also gave attention to newcomers, it sparked my interest again to continue blogging.
I’m very passionate when it comes video games. These shaped my childhood since I was 4. Growing up, I didn't really have a lot of neighborhood kids to play with, so I spent most of my time playing with toys and army action figures. When my dad introduced me to my first video game which was Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis (now called Arma: Cold War Assault), I was instantly hooked and from then on, I started playing more video games like Rome: Total War, Counter-strike, and Call of Duty. 🎮

I’m also very curious simply about just the world around us. I find it really interesting learning about strange phenomena like the Mandela Effect, legends like the Fountain of Youth, or the mysterious cryptids. I actually developed a fear of the ocean when it comes to the deep and dark areas already because of my readings about sea monsters like the Kraken.

I find studies like history, science, culture, religion, philosophy, and ethics also intriguing and I feel like these have had a huge influence on who I am as of now. These pretty much stem from my curiosity of the world and my experiences from video games. Other likes and hobbies include anime, dancing, swimming, watching movies, series and documentaries, and browsing the internet. 🤔

I’m really looking forward to my time here on Steemit and the rest of you, the community! I’ll try to post my thoughts often (hopefully I don’t get lazy again lol) and share them with you all so I can also get a view of what you all think as well. I hope you all enjoyed reading my first entry here and have a good day! 😄
