“My Unfinished Journey” ( My introductory post)
Hello everyone , I am super excited to finally be a part of this lovely family of unique bloggers. Being able to get your thoughts into writing is really a gift and should be taken advantage in every way, so join me as I take you on my journey “Unfinished” which will be simple and relatable. I believe everyday is another opportunity to add beautiful strokes of color to our simple yet intricate canvas(life). I intend to make the best of it as well as share my thoughts and perspectives with you guys.

On our unfinished journey of life which comes with its ups and downs, more lessons and realities spring up which shed light on what life is really about and if you are full of humor like I am, you are probably grinning at the painful but eye opening experiences you had in the past.
I am Azua Rachel Sewuese,( also known as Coco) a brown skin girl from the food basket of the nation (Benue state) in Nigeria. Although my parents are from two different major tribes in Nigeria, my friends call me hybrid because I don’t look like I am from a particular tribe because my mum is from Oyo state. Well just like I can’t change my skin color, I have learnt to embrace both tribes equally. Growing up was super fun as I am the first child and off course the Captain Jack at the top of the food chain. I grew up watching Disney and reading books driving my urge for writing my own stories and off course the reason I decided to be a part of this blogging family.
Although I am clearly on a different part as a Microbiology student in a federal university, I know one path doesn’t affect the other as long as I know what exactly I want.I also have a keen interest in radio presenting as I have a private podcast I run every Friday called “Rachel and Coco's” on Speaker. With constant unavoidable strikes that occur in the University system, dabbling in a whole lot of activities are a thing as I also make crochet pieces for sale.
Not a jack of all trade but a Jane that wants to improve herself in every way. From the information I have provided about myself, its not hard guessing writing is one of my hobbies as well as singing, reading , travelling and watching movies.
I will be sharing quality contents not restricted to a particular audience but will be beneficial to this community as well as enhance my skills. Just like one of my favorite quote says “Once you’ve accepted your flaws, no one can use them against you”, so I hope you learn to embrace yourself as I embrace myself on this blogging journey.

Hmm.. there have been a fair amount of scammers claiming to be from Nigeria. Hopefully this isn't one of them. Keep that in mind if you're in the introduceyourself section, don't give them votes if you can prevent it. I've commented on about 100 of their posts and only about 5 of them have been real people who have stuck around.
Glad i came here to check her introduction post, i was wondering why she had a (1) in red beside her reputation @cmplxty i can testify she isnt a scammer claiming to be a nigeria, i invited her some month ago but wasnt priviledge to put her through some certains things. i started explaining the platform to her and i had to tell her to drop her introduction post before starting her full blogging in the hive community. @cmplxty i understand there are alot of scammers claiming to be a nigerian nowadays but she isnt one of them.
Thanks for vouching for her then, let's hope she can be consistent and earn back a positive reputation to beat the bad rating.
ok, will watch and guide her through

Welcome to hive! I’m glad that you’re on here with us, it’s a wonderful place full of lots of great people!
I am sure you'll be able to find some commonalities with folks here on the platform. With your varied interests, there are definitely communities for you to go exploring! I just want you to remember that posting is one thing but engaging with others in the comments of posts is often times more important as a beginning user. If you are able to get out there and comment on others in a beneficial way, you can potentially gain some good followers and make a name for yourself.
There has unfortunately been a fair amount of scammers creating accounts from Nigeria so I'm not going to vote on yours due to that unfortunate fact but if you stick around and are consistent, you might be able to get something eventually!
We’ve got a beginner zone, so-to-speak that has lots of important information you can learn from. I would recommend you check it out to learn some stuff about the place, lots of great information is posted there.

One of the things I wanted to do is give you a piece of advice that could make this place awesome for you! Talking with some of the people who have been here for a while, we remember one of the best things we did was find other people’s posts through others or go looking and start commenting meaningful things. If you drop small phrases it won’t get you much attention but if you look at a persons post and leave a great comment, a lot of times they will appreciate it and talk with you. If you continue to do this you will develop a friendship with them and will gain followers and grow your account. This is not an easy and fast process. It takes time but the more effort you put in the more you can be rewarded, with limitations of course.
I just say this in hopes you go out there and really connect with people and grow your account. The more we all do this, the more people will come here to take advantage of such a great place.
With commenting and posting, we consume what’s called ‘resource credits’ and in the beginning you don’t have a lot, you have to earn more. If you want to consistently comment and post, the website https://giftgiver.site/ does 10 day delegations for you to increase your credits to comment or post. Give it a try if you need some! Please feel free to ask me about this if you are confused!
There’s also a great article that can answer a lot of the questions you may have. Please visit it at:

Here are also some great communities of people you can check out! The list is a work in progress so please take them as suggestions but there are a LOT of others besides these!

Welcome and looking forward to reading more about your culture(s).
And we indeed as human beings are dynamic and have more to us and to offer than we initially thought.
Beautiful quote by the way. Who's is from?
Hive is shit- and Steem's course is soon 50% higher than HIVE's. And are you all still happy here ? You have been lured here by a gang of power obsessed witnesses, who only wanted to enrich themselves and also have been lured here on the chain that is doomed to perdition.
Thank the Nazi witness @pfunk that there is spam. It's his fault because he flagged a social project for the few cents of income. This is just the beginning I have 300 accounts but unfortunately the bots on your shitty chain are not working properly. 5 months ago he flagged an account from a non profit organization on behalf of an @louis88 to - 4. This time I'm not giving it a rest, I get hundreds of accounts and I'm also taking money to buy or lease stakes.
Megalomaniac witnesses like him will destroy HIVE. Because of me the first HIVE are leaving, including some medium sized Stak Holder.
