My Steemcamp Experience (Miss Steem)
Life is always full of experiences and these experiences forms our memory log. I got to know about the Steem Camp audition from a link i clicked on Port Harcourt Recylce Whatsapp group chat , the next icon i saw was the Steem Camp audition flier, i was glued to it because i was really excited that apart from promotion and meet up , people could actually come up with something as innovative as a beauty pageant and a talent hunt.
.
I was so excited and could not contain it , i had to look for the criteria for the audition and i followed steemcamp on steemit to get more heads-up and to my surprise they have been doing so much on the steemit blockchain.
Later that day, i made publicity about it on my whatsapp status and my friend told another friend and he registered @itztarry for the One mic steem, i decided to contest for the Miss steem because i had a bit of knowledge about the platform .
Oops! There was a challenge somewhere, i have never done this before (Pageantry), a lot came to my mind, what if i don't qualify?, what if i get too tensed?, what if i fall while walking out of tension?, can i really do this?. A lot came to my mind. But i made a decision " Braide just do it, what could be the worst, go and have fun!".
On the day of the audition, i got up very early and i did a final rehersal in my house and head straight to the audition ground at Lesuka Hotel at Transamadi, Port Harcourt. There i met with @itztarry, we had a little chat. Then @michealcj assembled all the contestant and he did a briefing and he asked a question "who know what the Steemit blockchain is about " and everybody was mute, and like in the movies "Show time baby". I answered and i was excited that i did.
Time for the audition came, Damn! cold from nowhere held me . I had to hold myself " Baby you can do this", and while i was saying that i could feel my heels shaking and i took a deep breath and i said a little prayer and i got a relieve inside. And i heard the announcer calling contestant number 2, and i walked out with a faint smile because i was still careful not to make mistake. But it went all good, and i was finally relieved and i interacted with the other contestant after the event.
