Entering the Abyss

Hello, Currently in the internet world I go by Scrub and these are my thoughts.

I'm a young man in college, just recently turned 21, that will be graduating with a degree in Economics soon and on his way into the world. I plan to either join the military for a few years or else teach English abroad for a few years so that I can pay off my student loans and explore the world a bit. I would like to go to Korea since I have been learning Korean and find it quite interesting, but it is a little expensive and difficult to go. It might be better to just get a career and start working, but what I really am passionate about and dream of is raising a family and homeschooling my children with my wife. (Currently single so this dream has a long way to go haha)

Currently, I read a lot. Mostly Jung and Nietzsche currently in between my studying for school. https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/80218623-scrub Here is my Goodreads, but it isn't too full lately as I just started logging the books I've read. I'm a bit behind in my reading sadly since I didn't read too awful much when I was growing up, so I have a lot of catching up to do, although I find it quite enjoyable. I also enjoy writing and keep a journal of my day, of my dreams, and of the my dialogues with myself.

My most recent hobby is creating youtube videos, that are a bit blog like I suppose. The most recent one is right below. I hope to maintain this channel daily from here on out, and I would like to make a text blog on here about the video each day, further expanding my thoughts as I find it much easier to get what I want across through text than just speaking (although many people don't like reading anymore.)

I also enjoy playing video games from time to time, I play League of Legends, Runescape, Mount & Blade, and a variety of rogue-likes. I've been dabbling in Streaming lately and may just open up a stream whenever I decide to play. I feel like streaming while I play is more beneficial because I end up talking while I play which tires me out so I don't play as long! ;)

My final hobby is that I take pictures, I used to do it daily, but I've been slacking lately. You can find them on my minds account. https://www.minds.com/ScrubThoughts I use minds more than any other social media platform, but I am not too good at the whole social media scene. I am a very reserved person, introverted if you will, so I never really got the appeal of it. Recently I have been getting into it more since I have started making content and it has been quite fun. 1 (6).jpeg

Thank you for reading. I hope you enjoyed and will come along with me on this journey. I know I didn't post a picture of me with my name, but you'll just have to trust that the person in the video is me ;P ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

  2. Get Steem rewards: When writing a post, you'll have the option to choose how to receive your reward: "Default 50%/50%" or "Power Up 100%". As of this moment, choosing Default 50%/50% is the better option. But this can change over time. Check our post to know more.
  3. Upvote wisely: When upvoting, wait at least 30 minutes after the post is published to maximize your curation reward. Also, make sure not to upvote too much too fast so as not to drain your voting power.
  4. Know your Steem, Steem Dollars and Steem Power: Steem and Steem Dollars are the 2 main currencies here. Convert and power up more Steem into Steem Power so you can have higher values on your upvotes.
