Woot woot! I reached 1k followers to date! I am glad and delighted upon seeing my followers reach this milestone and because of that, I am finally up to my first ever Steemit contest! It's my first time to host a contest so bear with me if ever I miss out something.
I don't want to really stress myself with hosting a contest. I know that it would be hard to read all blogs if I would require one so I am giving that as an option instead.
Thanks to @mermaidvampire, I am using her previous contests as the guideline to create this. So, the contest will have the following criteria:
Tell me about your greatest, most unforgettable scar!

In 30 days time, I am going to celebrate my first anniversary after being operated for Ectopic Pregnancy. It was a dramatic experience for me and my husband because we prayed for a baby but unfortunately, it was a failed pregnancy.
I never thought I would go through that procedure, two and a half hours in the operating room was a pain, I had been shaking as a side effect of the general anesthesia, I couldn't feel any pain but I felt really really cold. It was almost an hour of shaking and I was delirious, I want to close my eyes and sleep so I won't see any of what was happening although the doctors had placed a piece of cloth in front of me so I won't see what they are doing, still I could see shadows and the other nurses walking back and forth, I could hear them talk in our vernacular and I can sense them slicing through my skin but I can't feel any pain at all.
But I couldn't sleep, as per the doctor who gave me the anesthesia, I am not allowed to sleep but I kept begging her and finally she agreed. I woke up right when they were stitching the wound and the anesthesia was already fading so I felt the pain of the needle piercing through.
I sometimes would find myself laughing whenever I remember that operation. It was my first ever operation and the scar that it left in my tummy is a remembrance of that bad dream but don't get me wrong, I had already accepted all that had happened.
To all the moms, soon to be moms, the single mamas, the women who lost theirs too like me, a snappy salute to you all for being strong!
Tasks:
So, it's time for me to know your own scar. Don't be shy about it. I have a lot of scars too and I laugh and sometimes cry whenever I reminisce about each of them. Most of them I got from childhood when I was carefree and didn't think of the future but nonetheless, my childhood was a joy to remember.
You may create a post if you want but a comment is what I prefer. And yes, you can add a photo if you like.
The most impressive and winsomely presented for me will win. Yes, I am also the sole judge to this so I will do my best to read each comment!
