First, first @runica, happy birthday in arrears, I know its like 10days ago. Actually posted on your wall, but you didn't reply, only upvoted. 😢😢😢
Now back to the story
My Steemit journey.
Steemit,
Steemit,
Steemit,

Oh! How have you showed me patience and endurance. I joined this wonderful platform this month, though I heard of it from a friend, but was very much skeptical about it.
C'mon, who wouldn't, how can you make money 💰 just by posting things on the net, so I thought it to be a scam, once bitten twice shy.
I finally gave in, thanks to @magdnrobinson, who sweet talk me into it. But I later found things a different way from what he said.

Challenges.
Who ever said making money 💰 is easy, well certainly not me.
I came in with the zit and readiness to start making cool cash (truth be told), though with the thoughts of it will soon crash. 😂

little upvotes
My posts yielded very little, and I kept seeing folks with 1m$, 80$ etc, and am like what are they doing that am not.
Some of my posts gets 0.06$, 0.01$ after 7days. Really not fair.
But as @magdnrobinson, "make a community, grow your community, remove the money from your mind."
So now am just going with the flow.

*new terms
This I had to quickly adjust to.

*time management
How can I balance my academics and Steemit as well as other part of my life.
The holidays are over and school 🏫 is hot in progress. I joined during the holidays and had time, but right now, so many text books to read, but I still go with the flow 😂 😂.

But wait a minute, aside the challenges faced, I had tremendous time and still having them.
Meeting friends from another country, woah, that's wonderful.
Different people with different personalities, but hey I still love to go with the flow.

my name is Etim Jasmine precious, but you can call me jasladin, cos i like to think myself as the princess Jasmine, waiting for my alladin.

I love life (well, who doesn't), I love music 🎶, could lost in there, love cartoons, don't disturb me when am on it.
Going out, traveling, exploring I love, hopefully I would visit Disney World. Maybe be like Alice in wonderland.

My goal for steemit would be to make this platform colorful. 🌈 🌈, Meet other great minds, learn from them and build a relationships started already and am loving it.
Met someone today and we actually had fun offline.
Why do I wanna win this?
Aside this being my first contest, would really wanna add to my wallet, had to ask a friend @magdnrobinson to send sbd for my transport back to school, not funny case. Bad timing with the ongoing fuel scarcity.
2---> made a promise that I will give 2sbd to support world cancer ♋ day feb4th. ( But hey, don't let it look as a pity for you to make me win,) I'll do it anyway.
Thanks to @runicar for this opportunity, reply messages, pls.
you just gave me the opportunity to rewrite my introductory post.
Bless your heart.
