Steemit!! Steemit!!
I heard about this platform around mid January of this year from my very good friend @kay1 . We had just returned to school from a long break and one of the first things he told me about after exchanging greetings was steemit. He said "Guy, you know how to put good words together and I'd like to introduce you to something". He has read a number of my posts on Facebook and those I have penned down on paper. He told me about a poem he had written from home and how he expected to win something from it. My first question was "Am I going to pay any amount to start?" (I asked him because I had fallen victim to Ultimate Cycler and MMM. Only Nigerians can relate, lol.) When he said no, I was ready to join Steemit. I registered and I almost quitted when I wasn't approved for about five days. On the day of my eventual approval, @kay1 got free 5SBD for winning a contest. That motivated me even more to "steem it hard" like he always says. He advised me to not post yet and that I should stick to commenting on posts and entering contests, just as he was advised by @rasamuel. @kay1 is who is inspiring me to not give up and stay for a while. I haven't made any friends cos school is leaving little time for steemit. I have succeeded in bringing a friend and a roommate here. He's @kehindeayomide. He's just a few hours old on steemit It's my third week or so on steemit and by participating in this contest, I think I am on my way to earning a cool 4SBD
