Achievement-1: Introducing Myself To Steemit Platform(02:12:2025)

My name is Idara Etim, but many people like to call me Darlington, and I kind of enjoy hearing it because it sounds fun and friendly. I am a young lady who lives in the lovely city of Uyo. One thing you should know about me is that I am a hair dresser. I love making people look beautiful. Sometimes I even practice new styles on my friends or on my doll heads when I am feeling playful. When I see someone smile after I make their hair, it makes me feel proud. I joined Steemit because I want to learn, share my little world, meet kind people, and maybe show some of my hairstyles too. I hope you like my posts and I hope we can all be friends here.

About My Family

I want to tell you a little bit about my family because they are a big part of who I am. I was born into the family of Mr. Augustine Etim from Mbak Itam III in Itu Local Government Area, and I feel happy saying that because it reminds me of where I come from. We are not a very big family, but we are close and we care about each other a lot.

I have two sisters, and they make life interesting. Sometimes we play, sometimes we argue over small things, but at the end we always laugh again. I love them, even when they act a little stubborn. I am the second child, so I am in the middle. It feels funny sometimes because I get to learn from the older one and still guide the younger one too.

I grew up in Uyo, it is where most of my memories live. I am single, and for now I am just focusing on my work, my dreams, and my simple little life. I hope you enjoyed reading about my family.

Academic Background

I want to share a little bit about the schools I went to, because they helped shape who I am today. When I think about my school days, I remember small classrooms, friendly faces, and teachers who always tried their best to help us learn.
I started my education at NUCO School, which is located on UDOETTE Street. That place feels like where everything began for me. I learned how to read better, write neater, and even make new friends without feeling shy. Sometimes I still remember the playground and how excited I felt during break time.

After that, I continued my studies at Royalty Special College on Ebong Essien Street. Going there made me feel a little more grown up. The teachers were kind, but they also wanted us to take our work seriously. I learned many new things and even discovered some subjects I enjoyed more than I expected. It was a place that made me feel confident, like I could actually do something good with my life if I tried. Both schools helped me grow, little by little, and I’m grateful for everything I learned along the way.

How I Knew About Steemit

Today, a young girl came to introduce one of my colleagues to the platform so I decided to join as well because I have been seeing my other colleague take lots of pictures everyday and write about her day and it is such an interesting thing to do so I asked that I also be induced to the platform too.

What I Will Bring to Steemit / My Pledge

First of all, I want to share my stories, ideas, and experiences with you. I am a hairdresser, and I love helping people feel beautiful and confident, so I might share things about hair care, styles, and even little tips that can help others.

I also want to bring kindness and positivity. I believe that Steemit can be a happy place where people learn from each other and feel encouraged. I promise to be respectful, honest, and friendly with everyone I meet here. Another thing I hope to bring is a little bit of fun and creativity. Life can be serious, but I think we all need to smile and enjoy the little things. I want my posts to be interesting and maybe even inspire someone to try something new or feel happy about their own journey. My pledge is simple: I will share, learn, and grow together with the Steemit community. I am excited to meet new friends, make connections, and enjoy this amazing adventure with all of you!
