It took me a while to finally complete my first ever post. As I had to read the FAQ, many #Introduceyourself post and lots of post to learn what steemit is all about and how it really work.

My name is Reneeson Rico III a.k.a Thirdy 

Funny thing is, there is no other "Reneeson" in our family haha but here I am, carrying the suffix "III". I'm currently a working student. I work to help myself finish my long overdue degree. Currently taking up Bachelor of Science in Information Technology at the First and largest IT University in Asia. 

I'm a part time Online ESL Teacher and Real Estate Virtual Assistant. 

I thank the people who invented and started the Homebased or Work from Home industry as it really helps me to juggle my studies and work at the same time. I just went back to studying last June of 2017 after I stopped last 2010. It was really hard to study back then while working as Customer Service/Technical Representative/Email Support in a BPO Company. During my first year of working, my thinking was "I'm already earning, why do I still need to go to school." Until such time that I'm having a hard time to apply for a higher position because of lack of degree. Honestly, it's tiring to take calls, answer inquire, problems, rants and talk to irate customers (Believe me! I've been doing that 7 years in a row haha). 

As a Student

Then our government made a decision that all undergraduates who don’t go back to school by 2018 will have their ass whooped ROFL! Kidding aside, undergraduates who don’t return to studying will start again in Grade 11 or 1st Senior High School regardless of what year he/she stopped. (Source) So here I am, scared to go back to SHS, I enroll myself again while still working. I'm doing the best I can to balance everything. It's hard, but now, I'm done with second semester and ended it with flying colors. In a few days, third semester will start and those sleepless nights will return but I know this will all be fruitful someday.

What brings me to Steemit you ask?

I saw a post in Facebook about someone earning here just by writing and following his passion. Then lots of people commented on that post, I followed the thread then signed up. Waited to be approved, created my account and read lots of blogs, post, comments from @steemitfamilyph @surpassinggoogle @jassennessaj @deveerei @davinsh @itinerantph @jon24jon24 @steemph @steemnest @steemph.manila @steemgigs  (Thank you guys!)
