Achievement 1: My Introduction post to steemit, Mentorship by @cryptokannon

Hi everyone, I am Ubong Francis while on Steemit I go by the User Name @rubee2as1. I am from Iton-odoro in Ikono local government area of AkwaIbom State and that makes me a Nigerian.
My village is among the top producer of palm oil and palm kennel. My village is politically placed under North (Ikot Ekpene Senatorial District) of Akwa Ibom State.

I presently live in Uyo, which is much more like the capital of Akwa Ibom State.
I grew up in a community where people struggle to make earns meet. From childhood, my parents always encouraged hard work, they believed in the idea that hard work pays and has the slogan that "the fruit of one's labour is sweet when it has ripens”. And my father believed in savings. It was when I grew up that I realised how much I was influenced by their example.

[ Area of Study ]

Primary Education: I went to Nkwot Ikono Primary School not too far from my village, it was not a very prestigious school but was enough to create a good foundation for me to build on academically.

Secondary Education: In order to get more qualitative education, I was moved to the city of Uyo where I attended Uyo high school. The school was one of the best school and had obtained many trophies in competitions both locally within the State and nationally. I made great friends while at Uyo High School. I specialised in Chemistry/Physics. I graduated from college in 2007

I got a diploma in computer repairs and maintenance from IBML.

By the year 2010 I got a direct entry admission into the University of Uyo to study Physics and graduated five years later.

[ How I found Steemit: ]

I was introduced to Steemit by @udyliciouz as a platform that rewards it's users with a cryptocurrecy called Steem. The fact that I did not have to put in any money for a start was very appealing so in my mind I said "there is nothing to loose here"

I wish to build up so much Steem Power that other Steemians will smile each time I up voted them. And that I am told will come from many power ups.
