The Person Behind The Name

I first heard of Steemit.com on January 13, 2018 from an old-timer IRC friend, @davidngtv. With only 6% battery level left, I quickly took a screenshot for my reference later. The topic came up as part of survival ideas during the current challenging economy situation. Weeks later, I finally signed up. So here I am, days after I got my approval with my debut introduce-yourself post!

My name is Mel, short for Melinda. I once enjoy blogging, but somehow I got burnt out to the point of letting my domain/hosting expired as of last year. It would've been its 10th year this January if only I'd kept it on. I set my goal on writing more this year, so Steemit.com is indeed a perfect platform to kick off the plan!

Fitness and martial arts especially Brazilian Jiu-jitsu (BJJ) are another interest of mine. I just started coaching again; strength and conditioning (not BJJ!) after a long break to recover from a knee surgery. The process is not fun and frustrating, but it also teaches me to appreciate all the little things that I used to take for granted. From fat to fit to fat again, I am now getting back on track to achieve my fitness goals again. If you have issues with this, trust me, I know what you are going through. So if you need someone who will walk the journey to achieve your fitness goal with you, you can find me at Valor Martial Arts in Market 88, Kota Kinabalu.

I could go on and on but let's not bore you yet. Why reveal all in a post, when a little striptease for the mind is good to keep you on your toes, yes? For now, let's get the Steem on!
