20 YEARS ON PLANET EARTH, 2 WEEKS ON PLANET STEEM (An Introductry Post)
Dear Stemians,
I signed up a little over two weeks now and during which I've had the opportunity of meeting amazing people already but I haven't officially introduced myself. This Is the purpose of this post.
My Background
My name is Buter( pronounced /bu'tay/) Daniel Dooyum and I got to know about steemit from my soul brother @gunneresq. I'm from North central Nigeria, from Benue State precisely where the culture is so rich and the food is good.
My first and last names are my tribal names. Born into a family of four, I was lucky to come last. I'm 20 this year and I happen to be closer to my mum than anyone else. I'm not so tall but I have a lot of tall goals.
My career
I'm a budding solicitor and attorney. And yes!...
...Legal practice can be really boring sometimes though I'm trying to get used to it. I'm Currently reading law in University of Nigeria.
I recently concluded a summer internship at Olaniwun Ajayi and trust me it was fun (You can always refer back to my page for tips on career advancement and development especially in the field of legal practice you can connect with me on LinkedIn @Buterdaniel)
Creative juices
I'm a creative writer and a poet. I write when I feel things, most times I write poetry without having it think of anything at all in particular. I hope to interest you with most of my beautiful poems subsequently. I write all kinds of poems from sonnets to ballads, blank verse, free verse but here's an introductory piece, it's a Japanese type of poem (Haiku ) with just 17 syllables

I also write prose. Here's a link to my first flash fiction 21st July, 1968 source (You can visit my page from time to time to read up my flash fiction stories)
Entrepreneurship
I'm an investor and an entrepreneur. As an ardent believer in the theory of value creation I, have a business venture known as CRIMSONS.
I deliver great fashion accessories and clothing to students in the school environment I also give sound fashion advice to guys who have a knack for corporate dressing.
I'm developing my business it to become a recognised brand someday.
Leadership positions
Currently, I'm a leader of a group of Student writers called "Nwokike literary Club" it was established by Nigeria's pioneer author Chinua Achebe. In Nwokike, we are focused on grooming young writers to develop their potentials in creative writing .
You can check out our works on our Mirakee account @nwokike_literary_club_unn
We often get published in Several online magazines but we have our own collection of works known as "Nwokike literary Journal "
My Justice Campaign
I am also a founder of a foundation known as "Justice with a human face " which is a human rights movement concerned with raising awareness of fundamental human rights of citizens and also providing legal services pro bono to People.

My circle
Someone once said
"you circle may decrease in size but increase in value "
Indeed, my circle is a very small one,although I have a very small circle of friends who I cherish very much. One of such persons is @gunneresq, in him I've found a brother, one whose mind syncs with mine.
Although I hope to make new friends on this amazing planet and time goes on.
My Realities / Expectations on the steem planet
I'm a writer and writers are searchers. I'm also a thinker and strategist developer. I have a knack to human relations and hope to build solid relationships in this platform(refer back to my page later on to see posts on strategy formulation, how to influence people and principles of power) .

I'm also a Christian and serious about my faith, I'm not religious though.
While growing up I uses to have to have a low self esteem but somehow I got over it.

@ogochukwu
You know when we said on our Nwokike group about how people never believed the possibility of a radio when it was to be invented, I'm ashamed to admit that I was among such 'unbelievers'.
This was until I went to spar the other day and when I was about walking out, I was issued a reward card. When I asked how it works, the issuer explained that each time I come to shop , I should bring along the card, and each I bought something, I get points on the card. The points can be subsequently converted in such a way as to enable me to buy something the next time I come with points accumulated. I then realised how quickly the world had changed without some of us realising it
This was the point I remembered your reference to coins in subway surfer.
It was at this point I became a believer and here I am. I've perused your wall and it's really enlightening there, I look forward to subsequent interactions in this whole new planet. Cheers!
Welcome, the post is quite huge so I skimmed through, but I admire the effort
Thanks a lot @boontjie I see you're a programmer and I've always had a knack for programming. I guess there's a lot to learn from you.
Thanks for reaching out.
