Good to be Here! - Got here because of a Radio show

in introduceyourself •  7 years ago  (edited)

I wanted to say "Yo Bitches", but I'm not in my twenties or thirties anymore, so I'll say,
Good to be Here!

The basics

( I didn't put "steemit" on the paper because I figured I'd use this image also for match.com )
Picture 78.jpg
The first thing about me, I'd say, is I freakin love technology, but it may have carved my brain into being too left-brained and too analytical ( which may be I started to pursue spiritual and metaphysical topics later in life to balance)

My thing right now, is working on a ReactJS ( it's a javascript-based library created by facebook that's super fun to program in ) application, that lets people queue stuff up to post to Twitter. Later, I'll also add posting to Instagram.

Not very original, but I'm trying to create features that would make people go, "oh wait, I can't do that with QueueMyShitUp.com ( site doesn't exist ), or that service over there".

I also want to learn more about blockchain development, with respect to apps, such as how Ethereum works, but I know zero about that

But I'm also majorly into the "big picture", of what we are, and what the Universe is, as described by people like Deepak Chopra, or Wayne Dyer, or Neville Goddard, or several other New Thought authors. I watch the Matrix once a year in January, as a ritual because I love the general message behind it. Keep questioning what the media is telling us what is true.

I keep moving to different cities, also, like I'm restless or something, but it's not really that.. I don't know. nevermind.

Some of my favorite books

( you can see that Neville is my favorite )

My favorite movies

  • The Matrix ( as mentioned )
  • The Last Samurai
  • Forrest Gump
  • Light Between Oceans
  • Vanilla Sky

Why I'm Here

I was half-asleep with my radio turned on in the middle of the night, and a guest to the Georgy Noory coast to coast am show was on, and he mentioned steemit. I very groggily made a mental note to check it out, turned off the radio, and then a month later finally signed up.

I like the fact that my involvement in Steem means I am keeping my mind open to what exchanging value can really implicate, and its contrast to what the centralized "authorities" want us to make it mean. ( that probably didn't come out well )

Note: I like the fact that I'm not in a job interview, and I don't have to explain what I meant by that.. don't you hate those kinds of interviews

My Details

51 years old

Los Angeles native

Speak: English and some Spanish

Education: Acheived up to a 2 year A.S.degree - which took 13 years to complete, becuase I didn't like the hot A/C-less rooms in the college and didn't like school, period, and I figured you don't need a degree for programming or for being an entrepreneur which is true in both cases

More About Me

My favorite type of work outs are high intensity interval training, such as doing kettlebell swings interspersed with goblet squats, or doing pushups mixed with other high intensity stuff.

These days, not doing much because I'm recovering from adrenal fatigue, or at least it feels like that. So I'm cutting caffeine and trying to get better sleep and upping healthy unprocessed carbs.

I love dogs, but my apt doesn't allow it.
This would be awesome:
