Introducing Myself through a mild Identity Crisis!
I signed up to Steemit a week ago and I’ve been mulling over this post for quite some time because I didn’t know what to say, but then I realized, how hard can it be to introduce yourself?? So here we go:
https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRVLqcp6Kau6Fc6owuk4Y3q7aTjrL8H19UN3LcBey19si/Selfie.jpg
My name is Essen and I am 28 years old (yes, I am of legal age. Don’t be fooled by my high-school-ish appearance). Interestingly enough, this post comes at a very inopportune time because I’m at that stage in my life where I’m actually trying to redefine who I am and I have no clue what it’s going to look like [insert panic attack].
I’ll start with who I was before:
https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQmWD789fiDDf4mqbsAebF62Lhr6ZZf5QjWQmr7CJZwKJ/Dancing.jpg
I grew up as the daughter of a Diplomat, and that has greatly influenced who I am today. My mother’s assignments took us to live in Spain and New Zealand for 6 years each, and I’ve only spent a little time in my actual home country, which is the Philippines. I understand diplomatic protocol, international relations, the impact of immigration and the culture shock you experience whenever you start living in a place you cannot speak the language of – no, not just a tourist for a couple of months, but as a person who also gets to absorb and adapt the culture.
https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSpxHR69trPjXs3Rk13Km96JRi9AwuEZ61BxKrPjKvfjH/Old%20Dancing.jpg
That said, I am not a typical Filipina anymore. I don’t feel Filipina, if that even makes sense, even though the images above show how me dancing Tinikling which is a cultural dance, and our National costumes (the Filipiniana and the Barong). I know how conservative we are and I understand our history, but I am also quite “liberated” in terms of my values and my attitude towards certain things. Being part of the Diplomatic Corps though gave me such a different point of view of the world and that has made me far more tolerant and open-minded than I think I ever would have been otherwise.
I think because of this, when we came back to the Philippines after I finished university and I stayed to work there for the last 7 years, I realized two things:
- I am not someone who can stay in a place for longer than 6 years at a time anymore – the itch to move and discover and live in other places is too much now. I feel restless—as if my life is not moving forward if I don’t move.
- I need growth and challenges in life, or else everything is just completely pointless. It can be a personal challenge, a career challenge, anything just as long as it’s not stagnant.
Quitting my job:

Because of those two realizations, I quit a perfectly well-paying, stable job as an Admin Manager last December to take a very long break (4 months and counting now?) and figure out what I really want to do in life. I had already felt the travel itch earlier last year, so that led to a solo, tri-city trip to Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto and Osaka), another one to Dubai, and ending the year with my family in San Francisco and Los Angeles (the itch was well-scratched lol).

Which actually brings us to how I am on Steemit right now – and how I met the boyfriend (@david-krug) on an 8-hour bus ride from Los Angeles to San Francisco 4 months ago.
Next?:

In all honesty, a relationship this year wasn't even within a mile of what I had planned. I was having too much of a crisis about what to do next (still am actually), that I was completely blind-sided by the last four months. As if leaving all security behind wasn't enough, here was this guy who wants to add to my freak-out equation. And yet the other night we celebrated his birthday by hanging out with some street kids (started with 1 at 7pm, ended up with 11 by 10pm), lending them his skateboard, and tried to bring in some health into their lives by buying fruit and feeding them fruit.
So right now, I think I'm just rolling with the punches and whatever else life throws at me. I’m still trying to discover myself. I know most people do this during the earlier part of their 20s, but I think I was just so focused on my career at that time that I submerged myself deep into it, never coming up for air until now. And when I got my head out of the water, I literally had no idea how far I’d come or where I actually was. I didn’t mean for this to be an identity crisis post, but apparently that’s where this went to lol.
Hopefully by my next post I’ll have a clearer idea of who I am? Thank God I have a very solid support system in the form of friends and family, who no matter where I am in the world or whatever quarter or 30-something or mid-life crisis I have, will always be there to love and guide.

For now, I guess you’ll be joining me in more quarter-life crises, self-discovery, growth and travel adventures! Yay!
Talk to you all later!

Thanks for the well done introduceyourself post! Welcome to Steemit.
You've had a very interesting life moving all over. My parents moved a lot when I was a child too, so staying in one place for a long time is hard for me as well. I get the itch to move about every three years.
Congratulations on the new relationship with @david-krug too! I've followed you both. Here's a post I made a while back to help new people:
https://steemit.com/steemit/@finnian/welcome-new-steemian-account-creation-steps-introduction-and-tips
Welcome to the addictive community of Steemit bae! :) She was so embarrassed that I was reading that she stormed out of the room so now I can write here without fringing so much, but instead she is fringing in the other room haha.
Just so you guys know she ran out of SP and should be back in a day or so.
These two are like music to my ears:
"I am not someone who can stay in a place for longer than 6 years at a time anymore"
That suits me so well. In my case it is more like a 1-2 month limit now before I want to move on or at least to a new part of the city. We have now stayed in 5 parts of Manila in 2-3 weeks.
"I need growth and challenges in life, or else everything is just completely pointless. It can be a personal challenge, a career challenge, anything just as long as it’s not stagnant."
Trying out new things and growing through challenges is so stimulating! Not always fun, sometimes frustrating and disappointing, but always gives us some dream or goal to strive for and some more meaning.
“Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.”
Earl Nightingale
See you in a few seconds and thanks for the mention. ;)
I followed you too, Essen can't reply or follow today due to SP. ;) Cheers and I will check out the article!
Welcome to steemit @essen.vicente.
Welcome the new steemians. Have a great day!
Hello!

Much love to you from all of us at @helpie!
Keep up the great work!
Welcome to Steem! Here's some cake to celebrate your arrival.
Manually curated by @futuremind.
I helped with a small delegation that I'll leave for a while while she's getting started. This should help with being able to comment more frequently. Thanks for bringing new people in and helping out ;)
Welcome to Steem. It's a pleasure to have you here with us. Really nice job on your introduction.
Thank you for sharing some of your life journeys with us, and the imagery was very pleasant too! I can't wait to see your future posts!

Welcome to steemit !! :)
@finnian, thank you so much for the link! I believe it's one of the most useful and comprehensive posts I have read on this site so far. I didn't really understand what people meant about bandwidth before (clearly, since I ran out of it on the first go lol), but your post actually explained it really well. I'll take the advice about commenting and upvoting to build a network well into account :)
Thanks @futuremind brother, I thought her Steem went up a bit faster than expected when it said she could do 27 now, highly appreciated. :) !
I looked for where to do delegate some of mine too but couldn't find where to do it and it was turning bedtime.
And you are welcome too, I'm happy to do my part in bring people I like in here. ;)
@futuremind -- okay didn't expect this, but my goodness, thank you so much! I was a little surprised because my account said last night that it could only comment once, and could do zero posts, etc, etc. But this is much more than I was actually expecting! :)
@futuremind, I'm just going to say thanks again for delegating SP :) I'm glad you liked the pictures. I really hope to share meaningful content on this site for the next few days so that all that SP is put to good use!
Hello @essen.vicente, welcome to the steemit platform. Hopefully you will grow and reach what you want here. Greetings from me @anroja, if there are questions please contact me. Don't hesitate to follow me.

@gemseven, thank you for the welcome! ^_^
Vi tu perfil, y me encanta que subas posts en ingles Y español!
Por pura curiosidad, te parece mejor subir contenido en español en Steemit? Es que note un poco que hay muchisimos mas upvotes en lo que subes en español que en ingles. :)
I sooo bet you regret introducing me to this site right now, hahahaha...
At this rate we'll never get anything done (you are right - it is incredibly addictive)
Apparently, I can only tolerate reading your replies (while knowing that you've read the entire thing) when I am more than a 5km radius away from you (I am still cringing by the way). I hope I get used to being so public like this one day.
But I am glad you like half the post and hopefully we get to do more crazy, fun, and productive stuff during the next few weeks. Love you! ;)
@Ma1neEvent -- thanks so much for the upvote and the resteem! I have checked Volume #65 of the curated posts and I am thinking much of the support for this post has been coming from that. Will make sure to check out the links and interact :)
Hi @anroja! Thank you for the welcome comment. If you don't mind me asking actually... Do you feel like there should be a particular niche to write on when posting here, or is it better to spread out your content on to different topics and find out which ones fare better?
You must focus on a particular topic, for example in digital currencies, or food, or travel. Sometimes you can post about others. Have fun here
i thought the bae thing was strange until i looked a littler further. yall are hella cute. great story. glad to have you both in the community

Nice to chat again friend, keep up the great work!
It's my pleasure! I'm so happy it helped! I hope everything is going good so far, feel free to ask if you need help with anything!
Bueno creo que eso depende mas del contenido que quieras subir... siempre es bueno revisar ver que hay en tendencia , claro esta la comunidad de habla inglesa acá es mucho mas grande y hay curadores o ballenitas jaja bien regordetas , pero aveces es un poco difícil llamar su atención , aunque igual creo que vale la pena, pero en fin para no irme por las ramas es cuestión de intentar, si tu lengua materna es el español sube contenido en español si quieres llegar quizás a mas publico escribe en ingles :) saludos y mucha suerte!!
No claro, muy buena respuesta. La verdad es que todavia estoy intentando entender esto de los upvotes, y lo del por que cierta gente tiene mas peso cuando le dan el upvote a alguien. Pero si, entiendo bien lo que dices! Gracias por responder! :)
Welcome to the steemit community @essen.vicente!

I hope you steemit life go beeg... and when we first come here we all start think what we go say and text. But all starts what one post, when it is out you start to think what next and you want try more and more... 😁👌 I hope you also use esteem too.
AND LOOK YOU NOT LOST YOUR KEYS, HOLD THEM OUT FROM PC. USE JUST POSTING KEY LOT TIME IF YOU CAN. 🔑
Thanks! @nigelmarkdias I've uploaded a couple of videos on @dtube and trying to do another one now and tried last night, but it seems to be bugging a bit at the moment, won't let me post. Will check the users out, thanks again!
You’re welcome. @david-krug
• If it’s a video less than 60 seconds, @APPICS should work.
• @DMania takes 1-10MB, I think.🤔#DMania, am I correct?
• @DTube: could be bandwidth: on your end? or at #DTube’s end? For long videos say >10 min, it’s worth being patient with #DTube.
As always, one DApp may be more suitable for:
• Specific content
• Specific topics
Of course, it’s easier to build a community on one DApp.
Hope that this helps.

Welcome to steemit!
Hey @ednabenitez! Checked your blog :) For a moment there I have got to say, I was confused as to whether you were a man or a woman. Gave you a follow back, mostly because you've been to Spain? I tried watching the Dtube video but I guess the internet connection to this hotel is a little flimsy.
Oh wow, only saw this now! Thank you so much for resteeming my post @nigelmarkdias! :) I see you even made the effort welcome in Tagalog :D
I am actually thinking quite a bit about the content - I mean, you are right about how when you do one post, you just want to start posting more and more, hahaha... Might get a little too addictive for me so I'll try to limit myself to one post a week or something, just to keep things consistent and controlled 😁
@enky-petrozky Gracias ^_^
Hi there @brittandjosie! I have actually just checked the @Heyhaveyamet blog now, and realized you'd included me there a couple days ago. Thank you so much for the promo!

Wow.
I cannot write to Essen Vicente. Maybe she blocked me or something.
Britt, I think @essen.vicente blocked me on Steemit because I can't reply to her but I can reply to you on her own thread. I get an error when I try to send her comment but I can send you a comment. I don't get it.
Did Essen block me?
Very addictive but I can't write to Essen.
I love travel too.
I love the Rock.
I love travel and I was in Vietnam.
Can I get some cake?
Awesome.
I love Discord.
Same to you.
Hey man.
Chao em.
I think Essen blocked me.
Yeah.
I love ponds.
I lost my keys and I think Essen Vicente blocked me on Steemit.
Hey girl.
Welcome to you too.
Too bad I can't.
Hey man.
Howdy. Did she block me on Steemit?

Hi joey, did you check steemworld.com? And sometimes mute is pressed by accident who wouldn’t want a great comment by you. Let me know how it goes
Why would you think she blocked you?

How would you know she blocked you?!
Posted using Partiko Android
I can reply to you but I can't reply to her. I get an error when I try to leave her a comment. I can leave comments on other people's comments on her post but not on hers directly. I get an error that says invalid characters.
I can't reply to her but I can reply to you. When I try to leave her a comment, it says invalid characters. But there were no invalid characters. I tried many times. No matter what I write to her, it gets rejected. I get an error box.
Here is what happens when I try to write to her: I get this error:
This is what I see at Steem World:
So sorry its steemworld.org
Today steemit had Some problems, i think you were inthat period, maybe you should try later
appreciate it! I subbed to you as well
I tried again just a second ago and I still got the same error message:
I Will sent her the message for you
Fuck i got the same message
Leave it there are more Nice newbies dear joey
You can tell her that she has awesome photos and that I love travel too.
Do you know if muting can cause this? Maybe you could mute me right now for 24 hours and then unmute me after that and maybe I can find out if muting also blocks comments from those you mute. That would tell us. I wonder if other people have done that experiment or not.
Ok dear i Will mute you now and if there is a message i am In discord too 👍
ok.
Hi boy :) You are Vietnamese ?
Chào :)
I taught English in Vietnam. I am American.

Welcome to Steem, Essen! Thank you for giving us your fantastic introduction. I'm of the camp that it's never too late to strike out into the world to explore more of what it has to offer and more of yourself in the process. Blessings to you for taking chances and to your friends and family for how supportive they are to you and in your journey!
We encourage everyone to explore the various posts and to leave personal comments on those that you wish (for example - thoughts regarding the content or a sharing of a similar experience you've had). This platform thrives through interaction as it's the best way to build relationships with other Steemians while finding communities and initiatives that peak your interests.
We like to advise bloggers to cite if images, videos, etc. used in their posts are of their own creation. This practice gives the creators an opportunity to have it clearly labeled that the works portrayed are the rightful property of the party posting it.
Another tip that we share with everyone is to be careful of copyright infringement when using material that is not of their original creation. Content (for example - images from a website) that grants permission for reuse is acceptable for content creators to utilize within their posts provided there is appropriate attribution to the source. Here's a link that will provide you with more information.
We wanted to let you know, we have given you a 25% upvote, are now following you, and are introducing you to everyone we know. You can visit our post HERE.
Welcome to the Steem Community.
Hey @joeyarnoldvn! I haven't been here in a while (mostly because @david-krug and I were so busy the last few weeks), but I'm so sorry if you weren't able to reply to my post.
Usually I use Steemd to track activity and replies to any of the comment threads on my post, but for some reason none of your comments showed up? I tried looking for them elsewhere but I'm not as familiar to this platform yet, so sorry!
Anyway, I thought maybe if I mentioned you on the comment and tagged you on it, you might be able to reply to me directly. I haven't spent long enough hours on this platform to even know how to block people yet, to be honest. Lol So you will have to bear with my Noob-ness for a while. Was there anything in particular you wanted to talk to me about?
Lol Goodness, I don't know how to block people yet omg.
You can mute people on Steemit.
Welcome to Steemit.
I like your post here. I wanted to leave a comment here. I was not able to. I can leave a comment here now. So, I think Steemit had a technical problem. That is my guess. Sometimes, you may run into problems, mostly because Steemit is new and still a lot smaller than Facebook. But the good news is that a lot of people are trying to make Steem better each day and that is good.
No. I did not write comments to you before because I couldn't. Steemit didn't let me write to you. Instead, I got these error boxes. So, I replied to other comments here but not on your post directly or to your other comments directly. So, my comments will not appear in your Replies when I am not replying directly to your posts and comments. I can normally comment on Steemit since I joined in 2017. I can write to you now. Something happened. I think Steemit ran into problems with their blockchain, the servers, the code, or something. Things like that can happen. But the good news is that it is ok now I think and that is good because that means Steemit will continue to improve each day. I have been a web designer and I understand that building websites can be hard. So, Steemit is new and it is hard to build a big website. Very complex.
Hi @brittandjosie! Just wanted to ask, since I guess you might know -- I only see two activities on Steemd by @joeyarnoldvn here, but none of the comments he left on my page to anyone.
Am I tracking activity wrong or should I just check this post more often to see comments? I usually am able to see everything there (or so I thought) but are there any other things I should be looking at?
Also, I swear, I don't even know how to use this yet, let alone block anyone. Lol
Hi dear,
You can see all the information on Steemworld.org , and if you are on discord , we can help you in #steemterminal its free and a coop with @heyhaveyamet
Greetz,
Brigitte
I see, I see. I'm glad you still commented though! Thanks for the welcome :) I was a little worried I'd accidentally blocked someone and didn't know how.
I am just glad you are here. It appears you can't block on Steemit and I like that. Some people may not like that. You can mute people which ignores them and hides them in the newsfeed.
