My journey on Steemit started from December 2021. During that time I stopped working for a minute due to various obstacles. I didn't have a phone of my own which made me lag behind by entering Estimator long ago. But now. Try to stay connected with everyone.

I had a wish for a long time to meet my friends directly on Steemit. However, even after a long time, this wish remained unfulfilled. Meanwhile, last month on August 19, @mostofajaman brother told me to do a meetup. I I immediately agreed to his words. My home is Kushtia. Mostafa Zaman bhai organized the meetup in Kushtia. But I am currently living in Satkhira due to my job. I was not able to go to meet them in Kushtia because I did not get leave from the company at that time. It was bad. A desire for so long was on the verge of becoming old, but I got an obstacle.

After some time I heard @mdkamran99 @enamul17 brothers & @shiftitamanna siste. organized a large-scale meetup in Dhaka. The date is 6 September 2024. Since I had a three-day holiday at that time, I agreed to do it with them. Although the distance from my home to our meetup was about 250 km. I did not prioritize the distance. I grasped the desire to have a nice meeting in my mind and made preparations accordingly.

So now let's start my journey that day

I had prepared everything in the evening night. And the previous day I decided to go by train. And I went to the station and arrived at the time of the train. I woke up at three in the morning. Because the train will leave the station at 4:48 in the morning, since the station is far from my home, I I had to leave home earlier. I woke up at 3 o'clock feeling refreshed and left with my bag. I remembered a van driver the previous day to take me to the station. I went to his house and found him sometimes asleep. I woke up and left for the station.

I reached the station and found the entire station empty. Some people are sleeping in the station. Most of the people who are sleeping are mentally disturbed. I went there and sat at one end of the station for some time. I was waiting for the train to come. I was very sleepy as I had little sleep at night. As I was suffering so much, I still I adapted myself to the time. Although the train was supposed to leave at 4:45, the train left the station at five o'clock. I got on the train and sat on a seat. In a short time, I fell asleep in the train.

Our meetup time was 11 am. But after I left the station, I saw a lot of jam outside. It was a Friday, there is usually not much traffic on Fridays. I took a rickshaw from Kamlapur station to Motijheel metro rail station. Metro trains are closed on Fridays. Due to this I was very late to reach the desired place of our meet up. There was a lot of jam on the road. It was 12:30 noon when we reached the botanical garden. I was very hungry after traveling all the way. From there I went to the hotel for a meal and had rice with shrimp and fish. After finishing two meals, I went in front of the botanical garden gate.

Finally I reached my destination. By the time everyone left only I was left to participate with them. I took a picture from outside before entering inside. I had to collect tickets to get inside. I was accompanied by one of my class friends. .I collected two tickets for me and my friend to enter inside. Each ticket was worth 100 tk. As soon as I entered inside I felt very good. I called Kamran bhai as soon as I entered to know their location. And I walked towards them.

I reached them, as soon as I reached them I was given a t-shirt. I went and saw everyone taking photos. I also put on my t-shirt and sat together with them for a photo session. The day was very beautiful but very sunny. Went to the pond. The name of this product of botanical garden is Padma pond. There was a canopy on the pond where many people can sit and relax. We sat under that sound and had a photo session. And discussed something about the stream with each other.

After we spent a long time there. From there we walked to the restaurant. The restaurant was inside the botanical garden. The food was ordered in advance. We went there first and freshened up. Since we were a lot of people, we first arranged the tables and chairs for our own seating. We Everyone was enjoying the food sincerely. And talking to each other. And having a lot of fun. We finished our meal and settled our food bill ourselves.

Since there are many people in the restaurant. Except us, many other people come here. That's why we finished eating and quickly left there. And started looking for a place to do our next activity. We walked from there to a pond. Boy by the pond is a beautiful sitting place. There our team leader @shiftitamanna sister motivates us with her beautiful speech to istimeter. Also @mdkamran99 & @enamul19 brothers give us very motivational speech. Also join us via video call our all favorite @ ripon0630 brother.

As our time was running out. Everyone participated in this meetup from far and wide. As we had to go back home again, we wanted to finish our activities quickly. Then we moved on to our next activities. Then we were again given an advisory speech. @shiftitamanna sister, @mdkamran99 @ebamul19 mahadisalim brother.I listened to all of them attentively and we like their words very much. Their advices were very good for me.As time was short we completed our program quickly.

Then, we participated in the quiz competition, which was hosted by @enamul17's brother. @khuhinur's sister won. Then, our team leaders served us ice cream. Thanks to the team leaders for serving ice cream, as the weather was very hot today. We still do photoshoots. We do a lot of photo shoots to keep the day as a memory.

After that we left for our farewell program. Although it was very important for everyone to return, but no one wanted to go back from there. Because that time gave us a lot of joy. This day will be written in golden letters on the pages of our memories. Because it is like this. I never enjoyed the day. Anyway we all took photos separately with everyone in our farewell event. I took some photos with Bangladesh community admin and moderator.

I am very grateful to steemit platform for introducing us to people from different parts of the country through meet-ups. I feel like every member is my own brother and sister. We take each one as our own. We are all Steemit family. I have a very happy day. was If we can meet all the users of the entire Steemit platform, we will be fulfilled. We promise to have such a nice meetup again when we come back from there. And soon we will have such a meetup again on a large scale. Because this day was very good for us.

Many thanks to Steam for Bangladesh community for giving me such a day. More thanks to all the users who gave me such a happy day.👇
