New discoveries, new friends, happy faces is what I hope to achieve here. Ya I'm new here and I'm still learning how to do everything.
Its a good thing I discovered hive from a very experienced lady username: @ijelady. More to that, she is my mentor, and she's also very nice person so I know I'll learn pretty fast.
I believe To learn also means to explore, at least that is my finding and it has been very useful, so I plan to explore everything here.
