My Introduction in Hive @arkicarls #hiveintro

in OCD3 years ago (edited)

Hello Hivers!
My name is Carla, or you can call me @arkicarls (sounds like ate Carls as well) from the super south-side of Cebu. Super south because our accent/tone when speaking differs from the people in the city and I’m proud of it, though others may put a joke about it and it’s totally fine for me. Provincial life is the best. Getting here in the fast-paced city made me miss my hometown even more. I’m not saying the city is bad but as I got older, I found simplicity, peace, and calm more appealing and delightful. Plus, nature is so therapeutic! And a lot of free fruit and veggies are freshly picked in our backyard or our neighbor’s lol!

I'm an Architect by profession and currently into sustainable fashion (thrifting/preloved), minimalism, and anything Korean (drama, beauty, and food of course!). Just recently I celebrated my anniversary at work and at the same time hustling my fashion and food biz. It's not an easy ride, but I enjoyed it a lot because I love all that I’m doing. Just like this saying that goes “There is no growth in the comfort zone and there’s no comfort in the growth zone” -from Mission President Agustin, Lubbock Texas mission.

Just do it and it will all come to pass. The lessons you’ll get and the experiences you’ll encounter are priceless resources that will always stay in your heart and can’t be stolen. Take heart and do something you love or something you want to learn.

Me and my love for k-food (food biz I started last year)

I don't know how to put it but I am super elated to be part of this community. It's been a week since I've attended Hive Orientation together with my friends (thanks for inviting us @intoy.bugoy). As someone whose field is in art and architecture, I love exploring, seeing new things, and expressing myself through creating and curating designs. In short, hive totally got my heart. I'm grateful for this community because it's a great avenue for me to share my passion, exchange ideas, discuss discoveries, learn from others, and meet new friends (isn't it amazing?)

What to expect in my blogs:

  1. Arts & Architecture - to inspire aspiring architects about tips when I was still studying, taking the boards, some architecture books, software that I personally use, and my experiences as a legit architect in the field (like designs I’ve made and projects I’ve handled)
  2. Minimalism - actually my boyfriend and I want to live simply, being mindful of our purchases and living a life less cluttered, and sharing our thoughts about the minimalist lifestyle.
  3. Sustainable Fashion - currently into thrifting, and I love to thrift hunt, curate, and sell premium fashionable clothing.
  4. Food adventures & travels - me and my boyfriend love to eat and explore new food places, especially those that are underrated but offer great food and service.
  5. Anything Korean- sharing my favorite dramas or series, skincare, and cooking Korean food that I’m trying to achieve lol.

All I can say is that HIVE is an ocean worth diving for. Thank you so much, Hive Fam!
Here’s to a new adventure and chasing our dreams!❤️


Annyeong! @arkicarls here and see you in my next blog Hivers....

Thanks for the warm welcome @intoy.bugoy and for helping me get started here in hive! The best! :)

Plus, nature is so therapeutic! And a lot of free fruit and veggies are freshly picked in our backyard or our neighbor’s lol!

This is so true. Free stuffs are the best especially if its fruits and veggies. Nature is therapeutic indeed? Where are you from the south? Not that I know anyone from there but I used to go there a lot.

Welcome to Hive! I'm excited to see your post especially if it Korean Food related, Minimalism and Sustainable fashion! Hope to see you soon! You will surely enjoy your time here on Hive!

I agree. Nature is the best. My hometown is Barili. I don't know if you’ve heard about it but it also has some tourist destinations like beach and falls.

Thanks for the warm welcome!Excited to see your future posts as well. See you around in hive!😊

I've been to Barili. I went to Mantayupan Falls and Sayaw Beach. I went there by myself. I love the rice fields going to Mantayupan. It reminded me of my province. Sayaw Beach is not as nice as the other beaches in the south but it has a great sun set view. Great to meet you here.

Wow! Well said @asasiklause. Glad to meet you here as well.See you around 😃

but as I got older, I found simplicity, peace, and calm more appealing and delightful

In short, I soooo old. haha. Seriously, I learned this recently as well. Gave all those notion that in order to be happy you have to achieve a lot and climb the ladder fast. But this is the old paradigm.

So WELCOME TO HIVE!!! Proud to see you exploring this new adventure! I'll be here to guide you if you need me. I'm really excited to seeing you grow and share your knowledge here in Hive.

I couldn't agree more @indayclara ☺️ Thank you for welcoming me here in Hive and for guiding a newbie like me in the platform. I’m still trying to familiarize the keys and all but I know I’m not going to be alone doing it because of you guys. Again, thank youuu so much!

Also, as Hive can sometimes be quite confusing, the newly launched Newbies Guide is a growing repository of useful and easy to understand posts about how the Hive ecosystem works.

Please be aware that Hive is a bit different from other social media platforms since you are monetizing your blog, so it is important not to include content that you don't own without sources (and it shouldn't exceed 50% of the post). For more information, check this post - Why and How People Abuse and Plagiarise by hivewatchers.

In addition, since you're new, you may run into an RC (Resource Credits) error when trying to comment/post because you don't yet have enough Hive in your account yet. For assistance with a temporary delegation to get you started, be sure to check out the Gift Giver site.

I'm sure @intoy.bugoy will continue to help you as you start your Hive journey, but if you have questions, feel free to hop into the OCD Discord server and we'll do our best to answer them, and again welcome to Hive!
