I can't believe it's been a year already!
Where does the time go? It seems like just yesterday that I was begging for follows and making all the newb mistakes that most of us inevitably do when starting out. Steemit has changed a bit in one year and has changed me as well.
I'll drink to that!
There have been a few notable events in my journey since joining in June of 2017.
The SBD pump
The flag wars
@lordnigels merkin debacle
But the thing that has changed me the most in this past year is the community. For that, I would like to give you all a big Thank You! |

I won a steem T-shirt in the early days from @reseller. Thanks bud I cherish it. This lit a fire to host my own contests and join in the steempocolypse contest hosted by @papa-pepper who at one point sent some ghost peppers to me which I, in turn made some ghost pepper salt out of and sent to @improv in California.
I've met tons of great people who I never would have if it were not for steemit. One being a Scottish fella in Vietnam by the name of @derekcowan. The power of steem bringing folks together. I was able to meet many Vietnamese steemians thanks to the lovely @hanggggbeeee and participate in the Hanoi steemit meet-up.
@fronttowardenemy, @hanggggbeeee, @derekcowan, ME, @little-princess
Our local Portland meet-up last year was fantastic and it actually led to me working with @natureofbeing at her ceramics studio for SBD! Sadly the job ends soon, but how else could I have found a job that pays in crypto?
Looking back one year, I could not have imagined all the different folks I would meet and interact with here on steemit. I am truly thankful. It is the people behind the platform that really make it. So to make this a celebration...
I want you to post a gif in the comments that is celebratory in nature.
I will send 1 SBD to 5 of my favorites.
It doesn't have to be OG just grab one off of giphy .
Congratulations @doctorcrypto! You have received a personal award!

OMG! I wish I was there!
Tell everyone that @doctorcrypto says hi. :)
Congratulations on the big 1-oh. Goes by fast, doesn't it? So glad we got to meet in Portland, and here is to many more years of great fun and wackiness and Steemit successes. Full Steem Ahead and Damn the Damn Torpedoes. (Stuff we DON'T like on here.)
I can't make a GIF worth beans (as in, can't), so pull this picture up on your monitor, then scooch your chair up and back really fast with your eyes on the screen, to make it LOOK like it's popping out of the screen like a GIF. My present to you. Foghorn Leghorn as "Autumn Beauty". One of my first posts LONG ago. Cheers and many more years.
HomeMade Jiffy
That there is an old fashioned gif. Hehe
Thank you sir!
Oh man, Congrats! I can't believe its been a year. My year will be on 6/17, keep up the great work and here's to another year!
Well you are putting in much more work than I am and you are doing great.
Keep it up!
At first I didn't think I had celebratory gif, but I found this.
It's a lot better than the celebratory banana gif I was going use.
I'd say anything is better than that banana.
What makes me curious is what exactly is the gift. It looks like a lego set but that reaction would lead me to believe it may be a gaming system. Huzah!!
You Win!!! 1SBD
Congratulation buddy :)
Have in mind, the best is yet to come💪🏽
Yes! I can't wait for the hardfork. That is when the tron boards come out. :)
Congratulations, my friend. I have definitely enjoyed our interactions since I started following you! Here's to many more years of community!
Haha! I'm just going to sit here and make that creepier.
Well played, sir, well played!!!
All right.... you win 1SBD for your nipple twisting gif.
Very celebratory indeed.
Awesome! Thank you so much! Nipple twisting in 3..2...1...lol
