Good morning from this part of the world, dearies. I am so elated to be here, after several weeks of attempting to subscribe to this amazing platform. My name is LINA BUCHI but I will like to be called @angelinacobbs here on hive. I am a proud black woman from the eastern heartland of Nigeria. It is with a good heart that I decided to join this platform, many thanks to @mrenglish, @cool08 and @tozil for their unrelenting spirits of talking some senses into me to ply my trade or rather craft here.
I come from a family of four and I am the only girl and last child. Nah! stop thinking, I am not a pampered child. life has been somewhat good to me, to say the least. My father is an insurance expert and mum is the real deal, she is a business woman with focus on clothing and jewelry. From my childhood, my brothers, the least is about eight years older than I, have been very protective of me, at some point that I needed to have some space, I had to speak out that I am no more a child that would be directed here and there. In all, I do really appreciate my brothers for expressing their love towards me.
After I graduated from the prestigious Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife in 2019 where I studied Economics, the need to start a private life overwhelmed me. My mum was totally indifferent about the move but I persisted. A year later, I broke the jinx by creating an agency for the Girl Child with headquarters in Lagos, Nigeria. The agency is supposed to be celebrating her third anniversary on the 11th of October this year but that is not meant to be as something dramatic occurred in the second year after the creation of the defunct AMAZING GIRL CHILD FOUNDATION. In the second year after creation of the NGO, we got our first major support from an international grant agency, the USAID when the group saw how much activities we have engaged in within the period of establishing AGCF. Before we cold continue the conversation with the USAID. Some bad folks hijacked our website and probably cashed out the support from the agency that wanted to support us. this led to the death of the amazing girls foundation. The dream is not dead yet as some other plans to kick off another non-governmental organization is still in the pipe.
For leisure, I love to play Scrabble game. In 2017, I represented my alma mater in a world championship in Scrabble at Asaba, in delta state, Nigeria. That was my last major involvement the game of scrabble. In that competition, I won a silver medal with some cash prizes for myself and for the school. today, I only play the game for pleasure and teach the younger generation.
Currently, I work with a first generation bank in Lagos island. This banking job is my first major job with any organization other than for myself. Banking jobs are very tasking and time consuming but what can one do than to find his or her way around it.
My weekends are always for rest and taking care of my surroundings. As a single lady, it is paramount to care for my basic need. So, every weekend, I stock the house so that I do not get distracted within the week. most times, I return home late in the evening and fatigued too. For some weekends, I attend parties. Some for colleagues who are getting married and at other times for family or church.
I am a strong believer that Nigeria is one of the greatest countries in the world. Though, we are struggling to prove that, we are not where we used to be. And as a crawling child, there is hope that everything will come to shape with time. I love to discuss politics, the Nigerian politics. I do not follow any political party, what I do is to support a preferred candidate. As a die hard Manchester United fan, I am a football fanatic with strong love for RC7.
Let me welcome you all to my blog. I am looking forward to having new friends from all over the world. Thanks for having me here again and do enjoy the rest of the week.
I love your name @angelinacobbs 😍

Hello! Welcome to Hive, @angelinacobbs. I found you thanks to @heyhaveyamet 's introduction post.
You've come to a wonderful place where you can develop any interest you can think of. The limit is up to you!
The learning curve is steep at first, but ask any questions you have, read and observe.
Here are some resources to help you get started:
Link to The Terminal Discord server, highly recommended for learning anything about Hive and @heyhaveyamet 's home.
Link to Ecency's Discord server, my favourite frontend and where you can find me most of the time.
Link to the Ecency resource library, where I'm adding practical tutorials in Spanish and some are in English, too.
Little by little you will find the places where you feel most comfortable, get in touch with other hivers and success will come.
Greetings from Spain. 🤗
Thanks for the links, they were quite helpful. I look forward to blogging from the ecency front end too.
You are very welcome and remember to ask any question you have! 😉🤗
Welcome. I hope you enjoy here.
You are a really smart woman. I’m glad you are here. I can’t wait to see you pen something 🤗
