So LET'S START !

Hi STEEMIANS, I am Joseph Emmanuel T. Ganate. I am 17 years old. I live in Cebu, Philippines. I am a Grade 12 STEM student. I work part time job in MCDOnalds SM Cebu, Philippines. I am friendly,positive thinker, and a hardworking person.

I'm interested in may things such as playing basketball, reading Trivia and Facts ,studying mathematics and listening to music. I love to hangout with my friends because they are one of my stress reliever in life.

I find basketball as the best and my favorites sport especially when I am with my friends. I see basketball as a fun and a very good form of exercise . It is a great way to get my mind off things and express myself.

Reading trivias and facts give me knowledge on things which I really won't even take a glance at. Specifically, I am interested at trivias which talks about mathematics.

We all know that Math is one of the most hated subject of a student. They feel that Math is the worst subject they had encounter but for me I like math because it is important and is also an essential subject which can be applied ni real life circumstances.

I always have earphones on since music cleanse my soul, gives me peace and which oftentimes makes me stress-free.Moreover, music is my only escape whenever I get to encounter problems that are usually unbearable or out of hand. Because music soothes the pain brought by the problems. Music is somehow my cure.

I'm personally interested to become a Civil Engineer. However, there are lots of career opportunities but I do believe that a job should be one's interest, desire and passion.

As for my family, I have two siblings; 1 brother and 1 sister. My father is a machine Operator while my mother works as a subcontractor. She works at a construction site as a steamcoater. I only have a simple life living with them but I never regret that they are my family because they always support my decision in life.

WHY DID I JOIN STEEMIT?

I joined STEEMIT because I want to:

1. share some good stories to other people.
2. improve my English skills especially in writing.
3. interact with other people.
4. share insights and learn from other people's post.

I think that would be enough. Thank you for reading and have a nice day !
