The Freshman _Steems_

in #introduceyourself6 years ago (edited)

Hi, I am Elinor Acorda, a 19 year old lass who is a native of Lumban Laguna, Philippines.

I find and expect steemit to be fascinating and relishing as my english teacher, @jaycelanne, introduced this platform to me.

As I write my first blog, I feel thrilled and privileged. This would be a new one to be added to my hobbies, a new way to enhance my writing skills, and to share my passion to people who have the same interests as mine.

Last May 17, 2018, I had just graduated from Senior High School at Colegio de San Juan de Letran- Calamba. I took up the Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics strand. It was a great 2-year ride in this community which I know will contribute to my success in the near future.

As I have finished my mission on one of my stepping stones, I am now going up to the next level--college. My interest in algebra and chemistry lead me on taking up Bachelor of Science in Chemical Engineering at the University of the City of Manila. I expect this field to be rough of course, but I hope it will be overcame by my love and interest for this course.

Music is one of my likes. Since I was a kid, I love singing along with Celine Dion's My Heart Will Go On.

I loved singing even more which made me participate on theatrical plays and different performances so I continued enriching it as I grow up.

Moreover, to add color to my music, I started playing piano when I was 13.

Eventually, I found ukulele as another instrument to play. I have a big spot for music because it always gives me a great feeling whenever I am on my sunny moments or even on the bluest ones.

Dan Brown, Rick Riordan, John Green, and Bela Padilla are some of my favorite litterateurs. I spend some of my leisure time on watching movies, writing poems, and reading books.

Now that I am already part of the steemit community, I look forward for an extraordinary interaction with my fellow steemians as we share our parallel interests and diversing experiences.

Hello acorda.elinor! Welcome to Steemit! Hope you'll like the community here. As a start, here are 5 tips that we believe will be helpful to you:

  1. Keep your passwords safe: Unlike conventional sites, Steemit has 4 types of passwords. Each offers varying degrees of access to your account, so know where and when to use each of them. Also, make sure to keep them all safe and secure.
  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
  5. Have Fun and Enjoy!
