Congrats! What a “wow” year you have had, @kaelci! You are certainly no longer a newbie! I really enjoyed reading this post and learning about all your milestones. And yes, we can always improve our efforts in the community, our commenting and of course showing up as our “real” selves, even if it pushes us out of the proverbial comfort zone! Hugs! ❤️

Hugs!! Thank you!! :D Yes, it's been quite a year. I really never imagined that I'd come this far... I was really focused on another forum when I first joined and swiftly shoved all my efforts over here instead. So very glad that I did!
It was someone on that forum who recommended Steemit in the first place, telling everyone that they could write the exact same stuff they were already writing and get paid in Crypto for it, and I caught it just before it was deleted by the moderators. I have no idea who even wrote the thread now so have no idea if they, too, are still here... :( hopefully they are and they didn't give up in Crypto Winter.
Oh my! I’m sure the mods were threatened by the idea! But wow, what a fortuitous moment for you! And here you are, getting ready to graduate to dolphin-hood. Just got there, myself. It took over a year and a half for me, but I see you on a much faster track!

They had a strict "don't send users to other websites!" policy, which I completely understand. I wouldn't want people taking my viewers away, haha! But still... totally grateful I saw it before it disappeared into Internet-Nothingness.
✨ Congratulations on Dolphin-Hood!!! 😀 ✨
I'm almost up to 3000SP, half of which I bought myself or from recent Steem Monsters card sales. Over the halfway mark -- it can totally be done! 🎈
