WHO IS geelocks

Hi hivers, am Annie short for Anastasia (meaning resurrection or reborn). My mom must have felt reborn when she gave me the name. Anyways, enough about my name, let me tell you more about me.

EDUCATION

I have a Bsc degree in English from the University of Ilorin, Kwara state. Hey, don't go looking for perfection in whatever I write, thinking doesn't she have a degree in English?. You will become be surprised, because you are sure to find some errors, omission and, mistakes. Remember English is broader and wider than what you think it is, and am not a professor.

LOCATION

Currently, I live in Lagos state, Nigeria, because that is where my office is. Lagos is such a beautiful place to live, however, if you loathe traffics and crowded places, Lagos is not for you. That state is only for the strong hearted. I guess am also a strong hearted lady for loving Lagos.

CAREER

I work as a sales manager in a fashion company in Lagos. My job is very interesting at the same time stressful. I have met different types of people, my job as offer me the opportunity to attend different fashion event. I love my job but I miss my home sometimes, currently am homesick. I want to go home, I want to fight with my sisters, play with my nieces and nephews most importantly I want to be pampered by my mom. Home is with family and my family lives in Kwara State.

HOBBIES

I love reading novels, novels of any genre. Reading is my mostfavourite hobby. I also love watching movie most especially horror movies. I love the thrill and fear that comes with watching horror films, at home, we watch horror movies together sort of like a family tradition.

My third most favorite hobby is eating. Not only food though but goodies, my favorite being chocolate, oh the joy I feel when it melts in my mouth,so yummy. I do love cooking also, I like the feeling of trying different things with food.

Traveling, I absolutely love traveling. Traveling expose you to the world, you meet lots of people, know new places, learn about different cultures. Traveling is an eye opener, it shows you the world. I haven't travel a lot, I have been to some states in my country but not all. I am planning to set up an account solely to save money for traveling.

RELIGION

Am a Christian. I respect each person views about their religion and believe that irrespective of the views, we should all live in harmony with each other because love and tolerance is what makes us humans.

HOW I LEARN ABOUT HIVE

I heard about hive from my elder sister's friend about two years ago. I don't really know her username since she is not a close fiend of my sister. She mention hive when I asked her why she was taking pictures of shadows and other things, I became interested and did online research to know more about hive. I love what I read and decided join, however, I was unable to open an account then. Last month, I saw a post on twitter about hive, so I tried to open and account and I was glad it was successful. So here I am on hive platform.

MY EXPERIENCE ON HIVE SO FAR

Hive platform is kind of overwhelming for a newbie like me. I have been taking my time to understand the platform. Understanding the platform as been interesting for me so far, a big thank you to @ksam and @starstrings01 for making me feel welcome on the platform. @ksam has been really wonderful, making out time to answer my questions about hive.

MY INTENTIONS ON HIVE

I am hear to start my blog, I love writing. Am also hear to view other people's blog, I have read some people's blog and it was amazing. I want to communicate and form relationship with other people. There are a whole lots of things to do on hive, I guess I will figure it out as I familiarize myself with the platform. Hive is a big community and am happy to be a part of the community.

Hello Annie

Welcome to the Hive blockchain and platform, Yes its happening you are a hiver or Bee as we are calling ourselves now. This is the moment to warm welcome you as a new user. And you receive this message because you used the #introduceyourself tag!

I was welcomed with good advice too when I started so here I am returning the favour. I know that Hive may seem very overwhelming right now but don't worry. After a few blog you will be a great blogger and contributor.
If you have any questions just ask your questions on any of my blog posts and I'll be more than happy to assist you with whatever questions you may have! I may know the answer. If not I will know someone who does.

Very important I recommend you to never give up any off your passwords they are yours.
To blog i use Peakd, to control your account use Ecency, also an App I use is great, it gives you insight on what is happening in your account.

Maybe great to join the terminal in Discord and visit @heyhaveyamet to See more newcomers onboard.

Good Luck, Have fun and I wish you loads of success on here! :)

GREETZ from Holland
Britt

Welcome to the blockchain @geelocks, hope you find your community here. There are some really good places to start like the Discord servers of Ladies of Hive, Dreemport, The Terminal, Ecency and others to learn in and have fun.
So, here is the FAQs of the blockchain, maybe read through them a couple of times: (sorry, forgot to include the link in the original comment- oops hahaha)

Welcome to the Hive community @geelocks!
We sincerely hope you find everything you are looking for and have found a new home here.

Seven suggestions to consider:

  1. Guard your passwords carefully, and only publish with the posting key,
  2. Use your active key only for wallet transactions, Keychain, Peaklock, and Hivesigner,
  3. The master password and the owner key are only used to reset compromised passwords,
  4. DO NOT lose your passwords; copy and store offline,
  5. Do not publish other people's work, be it photos or written, without credit, and be sure to source all of your work, even if it is your own.
  6. An introduceyourself tag is used only once , and
  7. DO NOT OPEN any links in memos or comments that you do not know who they belong to. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is, so the old saying goes. There is nothing free here.

I found you because @brittandjosie and @jamerussell from @heyhaveyamet presented and promoted your publication to get more exposure and help you grow faster.

If you find yourself overwhelmed and need some guidance, or if you have any questions, there are informed Hiveans available who can help you; you can click to go to The Terminal in Discord here:

Have fun and happy Hiving!

What I loved is your positive attitude toward respect and value for everyone. Sometimes remaining away from home becomes difficult when you have such siblings and such friendships with little kids. Literature student hmm princes of fairy tale 😉

It's a nice choice to join hive when you have enough capability for writing and fashion designing 😊 hehe glad to meet you, dear. Welcome to Dreemport🐣

Do you also write fiction???

Welcome to Hive @geelocks. It looks like you've made quite a splash with your introduction post.

I'm glad you've already found your way to Dreemport and so many Dreemers have welcomed you already. Dreemport is a great way to find your way around Hive through daily curation. There's always fun to be had and right now all the Dreemers are chasing treasure clues left by our very own Cap'n @dreemsteem.

Don't worry if you can't get involved in this month's challenge, there is always more fun to be had every month. You can dip in and out as you find your way around. Overwhelm is completely normal for anyone new joining Hive but we've got your back!

You might fancy taking a look at this series of posts written by @shadowspub that explains so much about Hive here. The best thing at the start is to just pace yourself. Think of Hive as a marathon rather than a sprint and you'll gather all the knowledge you need along the way. 💛
