Greetings Steemit Community!
Hi to all fellow users on here, I am from a country called Malaysia, and I found this place via word of mouth from a friend who briefly told me to just join and see what's going on, so what is going on?
I am working in marketing, I am aspiring to be do comedy full time, I currently am running a few personal projects like setting up a video channel to have an creative output. I write poems but mostly it's for myself since I don't keep a diary, poems are a way to make it less obvious but I would know what its really about. I play the guitar, I love board games.
2016 was a quite a year, my business went down in flames because I've trusted the wrong people, my dad had a stroke but recovering, my sister got a divorce, my family financial status is deplorable due economy and my business amassing huge debts, I got robbed of about $4,500 in broad daylight, I went through a downward spiral of minor drug addiction, I've attempted suicide and my guitar got stolen.
How am I still here?
Well, religion has kept me going, superb support from friends and my love for my family. I'm done with drugs, I am currently working to pay off debts and supporting family.
What do people often say of me? Here are the top 3 things:
- He speaks his mind.
- He is weird
- He needs a gf.
I don't know what I am doing here, but I do hope to learn more, Happy 2017!
