Happy Cake Day! | A Year into Blogging in Hive.

I was able to invest in a course to help me gain new skills and hopefully soon have another remote work. And recently, I graduated from a masterclass called I AM Creation which help me connect more with my divine self, release limiting beliefs, and have a clear vision of the life I want to create and manifest in alignment with who I am.

All these because of Hive and to all of you who supported me in this journey! So thank you.

GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

Last year, our small local group started these meet-ups to introduce Hive to our friends. It was fun and gave us the chance to stay connected with the local group until the lockdown happened many times and so we had to transition to doing virtual onboarding and webinars. Our biggest webinar was the Hive Talks! We should organize another one this year @ybanezkim26!

Anyways, I'm not great with onboarding new faces but I always share Hive with new people I come across and provide support whenever @intoy.bugoy and @chillwithshanna need assistance on sharing Hive with their friends. Due to unforeseen events, we then transitioned from our local group to be a part of @hiveph - the Filipino Community. I won't claim I'm always active there but I try my best to do my part since @adamada gave me a role I can't refuse. 😏

We still do our webinars in our discord channel and some improvements have been made within the Hive PH community even though it's a slow process.

MINI MILESTONES

With a little push from @ybanezkim26, I decided to create our Freediving Community so that we can have a niche space where we can showcase our freediving adventures. I intend to invite more freedivers soon once I will be able to have more connections with our local freediving community.

We were also able to organize two charity events. The first one was the Moalboal Dog Rescue where the funds that reached $470 were used to help rebuild the dog sanctuary after Typhoon Odette. And the second one was the HIVE PH donation drive for the Typhoon Odette Victims where we were able to raise $700 through Hive.

CELEBRATING HIVER-SARY WITH @chillwithshanna

As I mentioned earlier, I never had plans to celebrate but @chillwithshanna insisted we celebrate our anniversary together with her birthday! I couldn't say no to having Samgyupsal since I have been craving it for some time now.

She invited me to dinner together with @thegaillery, her bf, cousin, and her handsome hunky Unit Head named Jhonny! 😏 Good thing I came! @ybanezkim26 you missed the fun! It was so refreshing to get out of the house, eat at a restaurant, and have a meaningful and fun conversation with these people.

So cheers to me, to you @chillwithshanna, and to all of you who have been part of this journey even just connecting with me through your comments! That already means a lot! I am looking forward to another year here in Hive and I don't know what's in store for me but I'm excited about the future!
