This is my official #minnowoftheweek challenge by @runicar. If you also want to join the said contest see the post here


Who am I?

I am Zairos Maranan Aguado, I was 12 years old 10 years ago 😂😂😂. I was currently studying Bachelor of Science in Information Technology and was in my final year (though I'm not sure if I can graduate due to the documentation of my developed system that I'm failing to comply). My course focuses on computer programming, developing desktop applications troubleshooting computer hardware problems, networking and some other stuff related to technology. The ticket to my graduation is at risk as I still chasing to comply the documentation for my system (so let's don't mind my studies hahahahaha 😂 😂).
Am I a dancer? NO, a singer? NO, an artist? NO, a designer? NO, a photographer? NO, owww maybe I am a fan of reading books/articles/blogs? NO

So what do I do !!??

Nothing 😂
Actually I can't really think of a thing that I'm good to 😂. I think I don't have a talent at all 😂, but I can develop some applications (if you categorize it as talent then maybe I have one 😂)
I was awake most of the time, I usually sleep when the sun is having its pace to rise and wake up before noon. I was satisfied even in a 3-5 hours of sleep, maybe becoming a programmer is the reason for this behavior. I usually see my self very productive late at night rather than in the day.
I'm from a poor family in the Philippines that found difficult to send me in school. My father is a tricycle driver and my mother is a housewife. I also became a service crew in a fast food chain to help my parents supporting my studies.

My Steemit journey

How do I discover the platform ?
Discovering the steemit community is an accident, as I was searching for some solutions in my project I accidentally opened an article that was posted in the community. The said article was written in a serious manner, it really aims to give information to the readers. As I finished reading the article something caught my attention, seeing the article earning profit makes me interested in the platform. I've watch many reviews about the platform and decided to register after seeing the potential earnings and knowledge I can get.

How do I Start ?
January 12, 2018 when my registration was approved in the platform. I was so excited that I rapidly create a post, a very useless introductory post. It takes a couple of days before I posted my Official Introductory Post.
In my first week in the community my post really don't earn, there are also time that I was the only one who upvotes my post 😂 😂. This trend continue until I was introduced to a family, the @steemitfamilyph. The family give me a warm welcome and really help me understood the community with the simplest possible way. They have supported my posts, give me tips and suggestions and help me grow in the community.
We all started with a vote worth of 0.01 and sometimes it became 0.00 when I abuse upvoting,

"How can I help the family if this is what I've got?"

This is the question that runs on my mind every time I upvote someone in the community, so I decided to prioritize on growing my account. I set aside the thought of making money in the community, increasing my vote worth is my main goal. As of now I have 22.426 owned Steem Power and 347.833 Delegated Steem Power that I leased in the @minnowbooster. It is not much but I think it would be a help to the @steemitfamilyph.

What are my Goals in the Steemit Community?

Becoming a WHALE and making money would definitely be the personal goals of almost all the users in the community (including me), but I have another plan. Being a computer programmer (even I am still a student) would be a great help in the community and to the @steemitfamilyph family.
After I finished my project in school I am planning to develop a bot that would help the @steemitfamilyph to upvote all the family members for free.
I believe that upvoting is not the only way to help and contribute to the community, how can I cater upvoting all the family members in the community? In developing a bot I think I can cater all of them and I can also use my account the way I want (not that I would stop helping the family but rewarding all worthy posts that I can see)

What am I sharing (will share) in the Steemit Community?

Basically I would share my little knowledge about computer programming in the community, also I would love to share all my findings about the platform. I would also ,share all the things that I learn in the @steemitfamilyph to other newbies that would be arriving in the platform.
I also held a contest (once) and reward a total of morethan 6 SBD to the winners (see the contest here and the winners here). I was also planning to host more contest in the near future.

Why do I deserve to Win?

Hmmmm, so why do I deserve to win? Making me a winner would be like making @steemitfamilyph and its family members also a winner. I can't think of any reason except for that 😂 😂 hahahahaha. As of now I can't count my doings a help to the family (because I'm quite busy in school) but time will come that I would develop a bot for them 😂
