My Introduction To The Hive Platform

in GEMS โ€ข 3 years ago (edited)

Hello there๐Ÿ™ƒ, Lazyartist here!!! Well actually, the name is Oghogho Igbinomwanhia. A young lady, born and bred indigene of Edo state, Nigeria, Earth, milky way galaxy, universe. One would wonder why I'd call myself 'The lazy artist' but honestly it's just something that suits my persona as an actual lazy artist. Although I've been working a little harder lately ๐Ÿ˜Œ.
How did I get to know about Hive? So My good friend, fellow artist and awesome teacher @officialuroga was the one who introduced me to the Hive platform and has been and is still the one putting me through what I need to know about this community (thank you so much ๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜ฉ). Although I still have a lot to learn, I feel it's going to be a good ride here.

So here's just some additional information about me๐Ÿ‘ฝ. I'm a graduate of Plant Biology and biotechnology (Bsc.) from the university of Benin, Benin city, Edo state and although this is what I studied in school, I have a passion for painting.

Painting is the form of art I currently practice (I sing too and play my guitar) and I love writing even though there's a lot of room for improvement with my writing skills. I'm actually way better at expressing myself and narrating my experiences through writing, but with time I hope to be able to do the same through my paintings. I love Pets and have lived with them through most of my life (cats, dogs and birds). Currently I'm a cat mom although I haven't been home in a while and I miss my cat Meowkins so much. She's such a loving, calm, cute and graceful kitty and it's kinda sad because I don't know when we'll be united again ๐Ÿ˜”.

A natural hair enthusiast! Yes, that's me. I've been on a journey towards maintaining and growing my natural hair out for the past 5+ years and I've learnt a whole lot since I started and would probably use this platform to share most of my knowledge as well.

And so, I hope to have a great time here as well as get to meet and relate with new people. There's a lot about me, hopefully you'll get to find all that out with time. Thank you for taking your time to read throughโค๏ธ arigatou!!

Wow girl you are a lot to know about and I am glad I met you here thanks to @officialuroga he is a really good teacher, you are in safe hands hehehe.

I love your art work, if not for one thing I would have said you should remove the lazy from your blog name ๐Ÿ˜‚ because you are a really good one dear.

And you have pets? The cat is beautiful but babe I can't stay close to them, I can be really scared of pets so how do I visit your place now ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ˜‚

Last but not the least, I love your hair ๐Ÿ˜˜ natural is Bae and you have been growing it for 5years? Awesome, keep it up and I can't wait to learn from you about how to grow such a beautiful hair.

Welcome to Hive dear, I am happy to meet you. Let's do the newbies initiative together come next month okay? ๐Ÿ˜‰

Hey hey good morning! Thank you so much ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜Šand yeah uroga is a great teacher, giving his time and patience. Haha as for the lazy artist it's just a fun name, I don't plan to remain lazy๐Ÿ™ƒ.I gave it to myself when I took a break from Painting.

Well your reasons are valid, I've lived with pets for a long long time so I got use to them from an early age. When you visit I'll teach you how not to be scared of them ๐Ÿ˜.

Thank you again, I'll definitely write about some tips I've learnt through my hair journey!

As for the newbies initiative how exactly can I participate?

Don't worry much, you will surely get the update when it starts, it's always on the first of every month so we are waiting for May's edition. I will do well to notify you about it okay?? Or you can also ask official about it too, he should know about it I think ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

Finally ohhh, my OG is here, okay guys, meet one of my very good friend, and I am glad you are here. Hive is a lovely platform, my advice to you is this, don't start your journey with the thought of only the reward, start your journey with the thought of you really engaging with others and developing yourself, afterwards, the reward will come. Enjoy the platform, explore (I know you love to explore), learn new things and also share your knowledge with others. Read the rules of every Community you subscribe to and please, and please, say no to Plagiarism, I can preach the gospel on this now, because the angels of hives have touch me ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ I am a living experience of the phrase "You don't want to know what will happen" ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ so, stay true with your post 100%. I love using myself as an example because after the experience, I realized I would be limiting myself by doing that, and today, I am proud of everything I write. And I have let myself learn and grow. @starstrings01 is a very nice guy here, if I will recommend anyone to act as a guide and also to learn from, I will recommend him. Enjoy your stay here dear.

Hahahaha omoo, with all the warnings you've given me I better listen and do the right thing, thank you so much โ˜บ๏ธ. I truly appreciate your effort and everything.

You are welcome anytime. Please do the right thing, you need to do it.

@thelazyartist You are welcome to the community. We Hivers are happy to meet a newbie on board. Nice to meet you and hopefully will see more of your works through writing and painting. I can see @officialuroga is doing well in bringing more people to Hive.
Don't worry, you will so much learn and earn from this platform once you obey the rules here.
There are different discord channels to join to help you grow with your account.
Also, by next month, you would enrol for the newbies initiative by @aliento. This is to help all newbies build their account quickly and also get to know many other content creators. Have fun here.

Thank you so much I'm happy to be here. I'll check the newbies initiative out, thank you for the info ๐Ÿค—โค๏ธ.

Well, I am trying to let more people see what the platform is about, honestly, it's not easy trying to make people understand.

This is why I stopped oo ๐Ÿ˜… People are looking for fast money and do not want to do anything. They want to do small work and wake up next day to see thousands ๐Ÿ˜…
I am tired of talking and explaining to them.

Honestly, it's just not easy, lately, I only bother telling people I feel will do great here

Lazy artist? Tell me about it ๐Ÿคฃ
Maybe I can use some of your lazy tricks. I love painting and drawing too and just like you said you are lazy, I feel the same way most time and I am also learning how to improve this skill and passion.

As for your Natural hair? Girl, you could just lend me for about two years what do you think? Hahaha. Nice way and I can imagine the routines and things you have done for the past five years to maintain it.

Anyways before we forget why we were here. Welcome to hive! Hahaha.
I am sure it's gonna be a smooth ride but nevertheless, when it gets a little bumpy, don't worry much since I have already told you before hand lol.
Hope to read and see more of you

Hellooo thank you for welcoming me๐Ÿ˜ƒ. Now Lazy artist is just a name, I'm hardworking now๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ˜‚...I think ๐Ÿ˜.
As for the hair I will gladly lend it to you๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ if you can grow it to 30inches and return it back in 2 years cause I'm tireddddd of the routines I have to keep up with๐Ÿ˜ฉ๐Ÿ˜ฉ.

Hahahahaha, If you see 2 inches in that two years won't you take it? hahahaha. Please I can't keep up with the routines please and I can't wait to relax my 1 year natural hair hahahaha.

๐Ÿ˜‚I absolutely understand. It's not easy at all but either way it's fine.

welcome to hive
