'Tis the Season to Give to a Steemian
*Hey everyone, sorry I'm posting this super late on December 17th, I had a hectic day and I apologize for the delay (rhyme intended).

This contest is now closed!
While I was writing an article a few days ago, I came up with this really random phrase: "Tis the Season to Give to a Steemian". I don't think anyone else has put that phrase out there, but correct me if I'm wrong!

That does sound delicious. Might have to attempt making that myself! Congrats on 1st place!
Wohooo thank you so much @khaleelkazi ... Cheers!
That sounds Yum :)
Steemit favorite aspect to me is the fact that knowledge can be shared easily and one would still have a stipend to earn investing knowledge.
I totally agree! Knowledge and community are my favorite parts about this platform! Earning money for adding value to the platform is such a great way to cultivate quality content and relationships! Thank you for your continued support and congrats on 2nd place!
I'm done after this lol
How do you consume music? Digitally or through physical media, and do you tend to listen to playlists or through entire albums of artists you like?
Cheers :)
haha, I'm glad to see all your responses, thanks for taking so much time to participate! I was honestly surprised that you only won once! When I saw how many times you commented, I expected you to place at least twice in the top 10!! Congrats on third place and thank you for your support!
I don't listen to podcasts and there isn't really a movie I'm dying to see this holiday season.
I'm pretty new to Steemit so I don't spend too much time on here yet, but I think I end up spending an hour or two a day reading posts and sometimes posting myself. My favorite part of Steemit is the fact that it allows people to earn from what they would otherwise post for free on Instagram or Facebook.
I love all holiday desserts really :)
Yes, totally agree.. Why make big corporations filthy rich when we can all earn for participating in the platform!
That's a good way to put it! :)

It's realy my pleasure!
I would love to see "The Last Jedi". I saw the first Star Wars movie when I was a child. I love the whole concept.
As far as steemit. I spend more time here than I actually want to. It's kind of addictive. On purpose I have to deny myself and get some off-time putting the phone on airplane mode.
Adding up bits and pieces... around 2 hours.
Thanks for spending so much of your time with our community, you're really active here and I appreciate your support! I agree, Steemit has become an addiction that's a bit out of hand for me. I've probably spent 8+ hours per day on here in the last week ☕️
