Hi steemit, introducing myself to the world of steem!

Hi steemit, from the title you must have noticed that i am new here😀😀 well, you noticed correctly!! After patiently waiting for a week to get verified, I'm finally in and I'm so pumped to be here.
Now let me share some info about myself! Dont let me bore you all with basic details like height, weight, eye color, skin color and shit(lol) i am a Nigerian student(yeep!) Studying anatomy in olabisi onabanjo university in Nigeria(even though that was obvious) I'm a person passionate about writing which might leave you wondering "how has that got anything to do with anatomy?" Well you're not at fault for wondering heck i do sometimes too. Since i was a kid i have always loved writing new things and carving out new worlds out of my tiny little brain, i wrote a lot of stories in a little book until it got lost and that pretty much let me lose my inspiration then, but since then i have always been yearning to write again and that's what I'm planning to do right here on steemit.
My purpose here on steemit is to share my stories so that it would reach a wider audience(and also make a few bucks off them lol) and also prove my friends wrong! Yep my friends would always discourage me whenever i tell them about steemit mostly saying "ugh! Steemit doesn't favour new people", "no one would upvote a Nigerian post", " whales hate new people", "its hard to get followers over there" and such blasphemies hehe! and I hope the people here are not as my friends preach.
So to put all my gibberish to an end all I'm saying is that I'm hoping to make a positive impact in this place and i really hope my impact will be felt on this website, gracias for reading this stupid piece of mine.yeah thats me!
