Its a wonderful feelings coming back to steemit platform after months of registry here but was not active. When l made my comeback, someone got messed up with my key that l have to create another account courtsey @zoneboy after days of trying to retrieved the old account to no avail.
I remain myself Kalu Chima known elsewhere mainly as mrsareiball, a Nigerian from eastern states. Well, l decided to take a new name @Chesschaser on steemit because of the new feelings the name gives me as a chess addict. I love chess with passion the same way l love football particularly Chelsea football club in the English premier league as well Enyimba fc in Nigeria league. Blogging is part of my life style now as l have come to understand it and this platform give me another opportunity to express my view about things but l base my content on sports related as much as possible.
My Childhood love for sports
I really enjoyed my childhood experience as l grew up among different types of kids mainly at school. Coming home was coming to live a lone life because dad must not see you outside when you should be inside if you are not doing anything, just sleep. He was a disciplinarian and was always afraid of us being influenced negatively by other kids in the neighborhood even though there were all from good homes and earn decent income. Those days, some grown up in our mist exposed us to lot of games especially when our parent left us with the house girl for business of the day. Football was the first sport l could remember coming across especially international matches was being discussed. TV were not many in the neighbourhood then. Is either you see the big guys we called brother playing it in our school during the evening hours or we heard them shouting in a neighbours places during matches.
Why the name Chesschaser
Though the debate still ranges if it’s a sport or not, Chess is my best board game and l started got to know about it officially by seeing the mate and pieces in real life 5 years ago as l was about finishing the University. Being highly a game of the brain, mind and aims to bring out the best of our thinking ability and handling of situation on board which can be translated to our day to day activities and decision making, l fell in love with the game. I got registered in the school club, bought books about the greatest moves and secrets of Chess legends like Casparove in particular and some other online books l got from friend in some social media groups from Philippine. I dedicated my time to studying game until l became competitive. Fast forward to 2 years after, l started going for competitions within the southern part of Nigeria. The biggest even was hosted by former Governor Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom state where l witnessed top players across the world gun for the prize. I really learnt a lot and had fun while it lasted and since then, l have been developing not too fast with online Apps.
