Steemit Comment Challenge #20!!!
We are now up to round number 20 of the Comment Challenge!
Please get your pencils, keyboards, touchpads or whatever you use ready and be prepared to deliver some outstanding comments. For this round I will make some changes to the prizes. 1st prize will remain at 10 SBD, but the runner-up prize will change to a 2 weeks 200SP delegation.
The partnership with @davemccoy & @mudcat36 from the #newbieresteemday initiative will continue. I'm truly impressed by what they have accomplished and it is a great pleasure to work with them. The Newbieresteemday initiative is an excellent community for new Steemians. This challenge is meant to strengthen interaction skills, to support and motivate better participation, and what better way to interact with others than through excellent comments.
Get ready to deliver some magnificent comments! Polish your keyboard and sharpen your mind, I wanna see those comments rolling in. Please show me what you have got!
It is important to get followers, but you also want the correct type of followers. Followers that are truly interested in your blog and what you write, and not the βI-follow-you-if-you-follow-meβ kind of type. And to attract the right type of followers, you need to write godlike comments.
This challenge is all about writing godlike comments.
- In each challenge a post from a fellow minnow will be featured.
- The challenge is to write an amazing comment related to that post.
- I will resteem the post.
- I will give it a 100% upvote.
This will be part of my campaign to help other Minnows. The #minnowsupportproject helped me and I want to help others.
Join the challenge and practice your skills.
Please join the fun! π π

- The definition for a Minnow from #minnowsupportproject will be used. A Minnow is someone with less than 5K SP. (I have removed the followers requirement as I don't see that as relevant.)
Post To Review
Here follows the post for you to review:

Hi @starjewel, welcome to Steemit! We're just alike, new steemians although I got my account last January but don't know what to post so I leave it hanging for almost a month and then I just came back from posting just 2 weeks ago up to now. Well, I'm a Virgo person and doesn't quite know anything about your horoscope but to tell you, I feel like water is my element too, I love going to waterfalls here in our place. Im naturally inclined to arts too but the opposite of yours, I like sketching and drawing any thing that comes to my mind through the use of my used pencils (I'm utilizing my old pencils to save money for other purposes :) ). Your Fish ornaments were cute, especiially those little golden creatures having a party. What i like too is that the ornaments can attract neighbors or people passing by in your house - it can add more friends in your life. Much more, what i like about your ornaments is that you spend much time making it and the passion you have on making one of those ornaments. Hope I can learn how to make such too.
Have a wonderful weekend rest and congratulations on being selected to be the featured post in the game #steemitcommentchallenge !

CONGRATS Mr 1st Prize Winner!! :)
Thanks sir @danielsaori, I didn't expect much about being chosen as the winner of this comment challenge contest. I was just surprised when I watch my replies section. Thank you so much :) Looking forward for more commentchallenge.
Hi @danielsaori. I never have a chance to enter your contests. My teammate did once I think. I stopped by @starjewel's page and saw her wonderful creations, so I had to comment. Adding it here too. Thanks for your support to the #newbieresteemday initiative. We love what you do in encouraging engagement in the community.
Here is my entry:
My daughter is a Cancer too. The zodiac sign says Cancer traits include being highly imaginative, sympathetic to others, and a fondness for art and relaxation by the water. Mommy has no artistic talent but I do love the ocean! In that, we can relate. I too, am not brave enough to venture into deep waters for snorkeling. The beautiful wonders of the ocean creatures we are totally missing out on.
The fish ornaments are really cool! I especially like the golden creatures and can imagine them swaying their little bodies to the smooth sound of Peter Cetera or the more upbeat swagger of OneRepublic. π
Have you ever had an accident and dropped ALL THE BEADS on the floor or carpet? Oh my, I can only imagine the cleaning up involved, piece by piece of beading torture.
Thank you for sharing your wonderful artwork with us!
Confirmed!
Happy to see you finally made an entry of your own. :)
We had an accident with beads when my daughter was around 5. While playing with them she thought it would be a good idea to stop one of them up her nose... As you might imagine, it wasn't the best of ideas. ;) We ended up in the emergency room as we failed to remove it ourselves. It was nothing critical, but when talking about beads it is something I will never forget.
oh my goodness, your poor daughter. Did it stay stuck in the nasal passage or shoot it's way elsewhere? It is so not a laughing matter since those canals can lead to the brain. I worry all the time when the grandparents give my little one tiny objects to play with like m&m's. You never know what their little mind tells them to do with a small object like beads and delectable m&m's.
I'm glad to hear it was 'dislodged' and no harm done.
It was stuck just barely out of reach. We could see it and tried to take it out ourselves with a tweezer, but didn't manage. In the emergency room, that was exactly what they used as well, but they were more skilled :) and got it out in a matter of seconds.

I love the ocean myself. I had a boat once and used to go fishing in it all the time. But like you two, I did not like the thought of jumping in the deep... I think Jaws fixed me for life in that category!!!
duunnn dunnn... duuuunnnn duun... duuunnnnnnnn dun :)
you saw it!!! haha... yep, that's what did it for me alright ;)
Sounds like another trip to memory lane. :)
We are definitely enjoying @davemccoy's trip down memory lane! I wonder if his 'Spikey' had the chance to enjoy that boat of his. If she braved the ocean waters to swim with the sharks? ;) Did you know Spikey as a fish is really poisonous and destructive to those around her? Dave was quite disheartened to learn that one.
I am so behind with comments, but did hear Spikey's story down memory spurred a saga. I can't wait until I find time to catch up and see where Spikey ended up.
Spike never made it onto my boat... She had wild hair and pouty lips, but she didn't look quite right in a bikini.... In fact she was always upset when I even mentioned going out on the boat, so I had to start sneaking out on it on my own.
And looking back I should've known she was so poisonous and destructive, but I was just an innocent young lad looking for a girl with pouty lips and wild hair!
lol... you are now caught up ;)
hahaha... I remember that scene well :P lol
Thank you @danielsaori for this awesome contest.
My entry:
I want to say something about handcrafting first. A lot of people don't care about those saying that it was boring and easy. But trust me, it is one of the hardest things in the world. You can't just create something just because you have the right equipment. It requires a beautiful mind and a strong heart.
I can tell you it for sure because I have experience in making those. When doing handcrafts, my teeth start to clatter and my body starts to sweat. Aah! Thinking about that makes my head hurts. To be honest, I don't have the qualities.
So that's why I'm telling these people are miracle workers. We can be sure about that after looking at @starjewel's blog. Her wire creations are just so amazing. I never thought such beautiful things can be made with wires. The wire is just an object that can be easily bent and easily brakes. But with a touch of a beautiful soul, it turned into a beautiful piece of art.
And I like to point out another thing, the seed beads she used to decorate her wires. Can you imagine the process that she followed to put those through the wire? One by one, very carefully and patiently. Just thinking about that makes my hands shake.
That's why I'm saying she is an amazing, super talented person. The shape of these cute arts shows how creative she is and the seed beads that covering wires symbolize her hardworking and patience. I think she deserves a lot more.She is an artist that hard to find.
Her works somehow remind me of the movie ''The walk''. The main character that did a great job and succeeded his life with a wire. I think @starjewel will also win the world with her wire. I wish good luck for her :)
Confirmed!
Nice to hear from someone experienced in handcraft. Thank you for the great comment.

very good @mashiliyanage... for a young lady, you sure do have a good grasp of how to make a great comment! Wow... Very impressive response and I'm glad to see you interacting! I love your own work and if you keep engaging with people like this you will make many friends and propel yourself to the top of steemit!!! Have a wonderful day!
Oh, thank you so much for your wonderful reply @davemcoy!
Your honest appreciation made me so happy and proud.
If the other great steemians love my work, it's my greatest pleasure.
I think interacting with others is the best thing here on Steemit. A lovely comment always makes me smile and I want to make other people happy from my comments.
Thank you again sir, I will try my best in here :D
A nice day to you too ^^
You just need to be you, you're a natural @mashiliyanage :)
Everyone (or almost everyone) will love you. You are very polite but also very expressive. If you ever need my help with anything please let me know, I would be honored to help you along your future path of success. That can be with ideas, knowledge, or just encouragement. I think you have a great quality about you at such a young age and I would like to see you really do well here!
It is nice meeting you and please contact me whenever you need any help or guidance!
ps... if you have an available tag, you can use #newbieresteemday and not only do I follow many posts on it when I can, but we have plenty of others that do too!
Gotcha, thanks for your advice and time :D
Also, thank you for your kindness!
Nice to meet you too :D
You want comment - I got comment.
In fact my comment was such a comment
That it was a comment amongst comments
In fact my comment came before this post was ever written
..............it's a good way to support minnows like us man. Thanks and keep it up.
I won't be participating in this contest even though I want to (Last contest I tried to participate on Steemit was a kick in my teeth and it was all on me). I really do appreciate this effort on your part. We noobs here need all the help we can get.
Thank you hashcash.
I wish you best of success here on Steemit. And if you ever change your mind, you are more than welcome to join this contest or future editions. SteemOn!
Thanks man. Appreciate it.
Ahh fellow countryman of the Water Nation and I must say these kind of posts are very close to my heart. I love the water and everything in it. In fact, I live in place where all directions are bounded by beautiful seas and is even called the surfing capital in the North. I surf and swim and do all kinds of stuff. If I could grow gills, I'd live underwater! As for @starjewel's artwork, they are just plain awesome. You can see the creativity and dedication she puts in in each one coz I know that medium takes alot of work.
Like I said, I love the water and everything in it, so here are my fishies
Now you know why I love this #minnowsupportproject so much haha.
Anyway, @starjewel, it's not easy making it here. It takes a lot of effort and sacrifice Steeming but with the kind of passion you have for your art, I don't think effort and sacrifice will be much of a problem for you. So from a fellow water bender and a fellow minnow; keep steeming, we'll find our big break soon! More power to you.
Ps. @starjewel can you make a Molly next time? haha
Again, thank you @danielsaori for this awesome contest!

Thank you @danielsaori for the #steemitcommentchallenge and for showcasing @starjewel's talents and creativity!
@starjewel, you are very creative! All your creations are very charming! They seem to have their own personalities! I am especially curious about "Spiky" who managed to usher @davemccoy into sweet Memory Land - hehe
@starjewel, I look forward to seeing more of your talent! Incidentally, I am a Cancer, like you and an "island girl", so water is definitely in and through me!
I have Resteemed and Upvoted both posts
Lol @kismet2018. Spiky sure did take @davemccoy into sweet memory land. The pretty blue eyes and soft pouty lips!
hahaha... sweet memories indeed ;)
Hahaha
Confirmed!
Thank you Kismet.
hahaha... yes @kismet2018 it was sweet memory land indeed!!! lol
good comment and always love to see what comes out of your creative mind!
Haha ... Please give me no credit, @davemccoy! How can a person be unaffected by YOUR words, "Pretty blue eyes, soft pouty lips, and of course the bad hair days that happened more times than not! lol" Sheer poetry, my friend! Sheer poetry!
One question though ... How'd you let that one get away?
Was it the wild hair? hehehe
I don't think we'll ever let Dave live this one down! LOL. You have to go visit @starjewel's post on Spikey, @kismet2018. He was quite disheartened about his-blue eyed beauty.
Hahaha ... I have been laughing so hard about this! Poor @davemccoy! He almost needs to write HIS Spikey Story! ... or maybe not! She's not around for a reason! Meanwhile, this is hilarious! I did go give our talented @starjewel some luvin! Spikey's story and post has been Upvoted and Resteemed. Also following our new friend!
Voted.
You took the time to visit another of @starjewelβs post on Spikey and left a sincere comment about your shared interests in the arts. You are sincere and genuine. Letβs not forget fun! We are having lots of good cheer poking at Daveβs blue-eyed Spikey! π
Hahaha ... you just elicited another belly laff from me @beeyou! Poor @davemccoy!
"The One that Got Away" ... How's that for a title for His "Spikey Story"? Hehe
As for being rewarded and awarded for giving our talented Miss @starjewel a little bit of "Shuga", are you kidding? Getting to meet her and have a look at her super cool creations was pure delight! Plus, this entire "Spikey" thing's been a "hoot"! Everytime I see one of your comments or Dave's responses, I truly bust out laughing! Is this a type of Steemit insanity? Not just connecting but sharing belly laughs with amazing people "out there" somewhere! I absolutely love it!
Thank you @beeyou, again, I am not quite certain of the significance of most of these "prizes" but I am deeply honored and happy about all of it!
Speaking of luvin' did you catch my new friend @lil-mich and her ORANGE post? She sent me tons of giggles yesterday! The magic of Steemit ... People "meeting" People, without leaving the "farm"!
Here is the link to @lil-mich's (Michele) post ...
https://steemit.com/colorchallenge/@lil-mich/colorchallenge-tuesdayorange-a-stranger-spotting-the-obvious
Thank you again for EVERYTHING you do @beeyou!
I haven't see @lil-mich's post but I saw yours... You look very comfy in that orange chair!!!
And I'm glad the ladies like my "Spiky story"... It will give us many fun things to talk about which is why this is indeed a form of blissful insanity!!! You can laugh at my boyish charm anytime @kismet2018, I enjoy every interaction I have with you!
Ok now off to check out @lil-mich's post... I am so far behind this week in engaging that Asher might kick me out of his league! :)
We got a glimpse into our one and only Dave McCoy @kismet2018. We have to poke some fun right? I do wonder how @davemccoy would scrpitwrite βThe one that got awayβ. Blue-eyed beauty in all its glory or the havoc caused by some pouty lip and wild bed-head hair. Lol, we are a hoot!!!
I think the Steemit insanity may be only amongst our group. Iβll tag you on another post that I couldnβt stop laughing.
My vote is cast to where I see sincerity. There are some top performers already with all the votes. Itβs not all about winning. Enter, learn and have fun! Iβll stop by both yours and hers to check out this orange post.
lol... @beeyou .. I think I will never forget my "spikey story" again! You all seem to like my description of her so maybe I should get out my pen and see what I can scribe. At the risk of being "poked" again, of course! ;)
Yes this place is awesome and I know you will see all that goes on... While you might be right the fun stuff might be only limited to us, the awesome thing is "us" keeps expanding by the day!
ps... I like that "enter, learn, and have fun!" ... you have given me an idea... stay tuned ;)
Another stay tuned from you?! I know I must have told you how wary I am when you say idea and stay tuned.
hehehe I like to get you excited in anticipation! I know you tell me different, but I have a hunch you always like it! :D
Yessss ... hands clapping here ... @davemccoy is going to do his Spikey Story, @beeyou!!! Yessss!!!!
Did you see that Spikey moved on and now is completely over me??? I am the past, she has a new boyfriend but yet, now he has gone..
Does that mean my love can be rekindled? Do I have a chance? Or will I die alone with only those blue eyes and pouty lips (and of course the bedhead) in my memories?
stay tuned!!! :D
Congrats kismet! 2nd Prize is yours. Well done!
Great idea with a comment challenge.
I started on Steemit yesterday, and I still have so much to learn - writing good comments is one of them.
I will check the winners of this challenge to learn more about what to write in a good comment, and how to format it.
Hi @sindore. I remember you, 'blood daughter or blood elf'. :)
Glad you took some time to look around at some of the contest activities on here. Commenting is important as to how you portray your message and getting it across to the author. But don't forget, equally important is being interested enough about the author and content to be able to make a genuine and sincere comment. I know I appreciate comments that let me know he/she actually read my material. An overly exaggerated 'Wow, you are SO talented and beautiful, heck, why not throw that last one in too :) won't impress me much. Now, if the person said they like my lame attempt at being funny, that, I might be more impressed. :)
very good @beeyou! That's an impressive display of engagement!
Lol, hey Dave. I do love reading raving reviews about my wonderful talents and beauty, but I like some depth too. π
hahaha... I've noticed!!! :D
And that, @beeyou, is a perfect example of a great comment :) Thanks.
aww, thanks @sindore.
Be sure to enter the next contest so you can get a chance to earn some SBD. Also, our #newbiegames tag has a lot of contests too. It's always best to browse around first when you're first starting out. See what you like to do on here. :)
Happy to have you here. Looking forward to your entries in the future.
welcome to steemit @sindore! This is a game you should keep paying attention to! Lots of different topics every week and its fun to interact with everyone! Glad to have you here and have a great day!
Thank you, @davemccoy :) I will pay attention to this game. I'm beggining to recognize names and finding so many interesting posts to read.
Thankyou @danielsaori for the comment challenge to encourage and help new bies grow more in steem. I pray more steem dollar to your account.
Sister sister @ starjewel welcome to steemit, you are already a star all thanks to danielsaori and projects partners.
Here is my comment and observation on your creative art work.
Firstly, i must commend your unique skills as an entrepreneur, the act of studying your environment and making great innovations from your environment.
I have also learnt the power of imagination to great innovation.
Secondly as a scientist i have learnt new discovery of a destructive and poisonous fish, i pray no fisher man comes across this fish.
I also believe the fish has great unique role as a fish in stabilizing the water life with it destructive features.
I am really trilled at your imagination, innovations and talent in you, please don't stop inspiring your world.
Confirmed!
Voted.
You took the time to stop by another post of @starjewel on Spikey. I respect that you took the opportunity to learn about her and stop by her other posts, not just the one highlighted in the challenge. That is sincerity at its best and you have my vote.
Thankyou@beeyou....
Mine entry:
Greetings, sweet starjewel.
For me, your decoration is beautiful. I think that in assembling these decorations with the beautiful little fishes, he is showing us all a piece of his soul.
I am a psychologist, and I know that art is a beautiful expression that one can do. I have attended to a person with depression who after much research with her, we have been able to find art as an activity that gives her great pleasure. This alleviated many of its symptoms. So I know how important it is for a person to express himself in that way.
Thank you very much!!!
Good Morning
Very nice @julisavio!!! Good job and glad to see you playing @danielsaori's game!!! It a fun experience every week, I look forward to it!!!
Confirmed!
Thanks a lot for your entry. Happy to have you here.
Here is my entry:
Though there are lots of arts and crafts that are made of beads, I only had an experience making bracelets and necklaces out of beads and they are really beautiful. We even designed the bracelets with letters and names to personalized them. I like your creations and this is actually the first time that I saw such bead ideas with the use of wire to create bigger decors. I just followed you to see more of your creations in the future.
Confirmed!
Sounds like nice bracelets the one your described with letters.
Thank you, it looks something like this.

You can also play around with different designs like this one:

When making these kinds of bracelets, we only need the small beads and transparent spring nylon. :)

Those look amazing. How long, on average does it take you to make a single fish? I'm envisaging ones where you mix in mirror beads and other similar enhancements to bring them even more to life.
Your talk about water, reminded me of the Kelpies (mythical and in sculpture form):
Near Falkirk in Scotland are two, 100 foot high sculptures of Kelpies in their horse form: The Kelpies
It's said that whenever you see ripples in water, that's the Kelpies moving their loads from one place to another.
Here's a pic I took last time I went to visit them:

The enormous talent and creativity of all the artist on Steemit is something that I have always enjoyed. And while it is easier for most people to appreciate the traditional forms of art like painting and drawing, I have found it much more difficult to get the same type of following for things that fall outside of those mediums.
Sometimes it just takes the right words to connect with an audience, like when @starjewel mentioned in her post about her passion for Wire Art:
And I think many artists can relate to that.
When I look at the Fish Wire Art I see the type of art that comes from a deep connection with who you are as a person, and how it combines your skills with your spirit to produce something that you simply can't copy or mass produce. That to me is the kind of art you can't put a value on!
Confirmed!
Excellent! This is one contest that I definitely want to participate more regularly :)
Good to see you here @plushzilla! Its a good place to meet new people and have some fun! Good entry!
Hello again thanks for the opportunity, I show you my message as entry to the contest, I hope the translator will help me because my mother tongue is Spanish.
Water is a magical element that transmits life, I feel identified with water maybe because I am a scorpion, I love the sea and the life in it is interesting, it would be a good idea to learn to dive, so you will have more ideas for your beautiful crecaiones, I congratulate you.
Confirmed!
That's a lovely comment Melvadg. Well done!
very nice @melvadg!!! I love that you use a translater to get your message across!!!
I envy your skill and patience! Your works are totally beautiful! I especially liked the blue and yellow one, I hope you keep it up and wish you much luck and all the best!
Confirmed!
Yes, Spikey was a cool creature. :)
Heres my entry, wishing you all much love
Wow i love your beautiful creation of Nemo the clown fish, it must have taken such a lot of patience and so many hours to create.
The yellow and blue lionfish is so cool too, im imagining a whole aquarium of different fish floating around in the window
You should consider a #steembay auction for your gorgeous work.
Keep up with the wonderful posts full of inspiring, multicoloured creativity too @starjewel π
Confirmed!
Thanks for your entry and the tips about #steembay.

@starjewel welcome to steetim. Its a nice place to spend your time instead of wasting it on other social networks. I love your expression of endowment through art. Art is a communication and interpretation of nature. To survive here, you must apply the golden rule "do to others as you would like them to do unto you"
Keep steeming with what you know how to do best.
Confirmed!
True about steemit, at least it can bring some profit for "wasting time" online. :)
Wonderful work your doing here sir, trying your very best to promote and show others the beautiful talents we have here on steemit..
Well-done
Here's my entry for the comment challenge:-
The Bible book of proverbs 22:29 says:- have you seen a man skillful at his work? He will stand before kings; he will not stand before common men
Wonderful display of hard work, commitment and passion you've displayed here..
Trust me, am not missing words when I say ' I have seen @starjewel, and she's more than skillful in her works, and for her work to be featured at @newbieresteemday and at @danielsoari in steemitcommentchallenge#20, she's already started standing before kings'
Well done... Really surprised a unique thing like these could be made out of tiny beeds
Confirmed!
My entry, posted as is to starjewel:
Hi there Starjewel! Love your arts. I myself like Spikey, the lion fish. The similarity is awesome! :D
I've read you made lots of these, are you selling these? I believe these are good enough to be sold. So, you could earn money from your hobby. I think turtles would attract many Asians, as it symbolizes longevity. Good luck to you! Steem On!
Confirmed!
My favourite was Nemo, but I agree with you that Spikey is pretty cool as well. :)
Wow... So it's on ready.. Wonderful competition..
Guess I'll join you and read beautiful comments.
Have they results of the challenge 19 been announced?
The winner for round #19 will be announced today, in around 8 hours.
Here's my entry:
Hi @starjewel those are fascinating form of art. As an art enthusiast, I love seeing eye catching things. Keep on doing those crafts. Doesn't matter if not too many appreciates it, as long as you're enjoying making those then it's all that matters. It is a great form of diversion from day to day struggles. Lastly, dont worry if you're not getting attention as of now. It's all about sharing masterpieces the recognition will follow. Keep it up! : )
Confirmed!
Great to see you back Vanj. :)
I joined again because of a relatable topic. I can't relate on the previous ones. I'm somewhat glad you noticed my absence. : )
Great game, love to support you with resteeming to my friends and followers.
I am the "Tag-Lifter" and you have been resteemed because you tagged your post #newbieresteemday

You have been resteemed as part of #newbieresteemday ... I made today my #newbieresteemday, and invite you and others to do the same. To learn more: Come Join Us!!! (Newbie Resteem Initiative)
You are very talented. I love the gaps in the wire which makes it look 3D. Great job! How long did each one take? Joy
All my fish ornaments are fully 3D. π Nemo took 3 weeks, Spikey 1 week, and the party a couple of days each. I work just 1-2 hours per day.
I always wanted just one tiger or tigershark fish and I would love to hang your ornament outside the tank. (they fight)
Did you check out peer hub? Just in case you want to sell some for sbd or steem. I make soap. When I figure out the details I'm going to look more into it. I'd pay $30 for one. Great work! Joy
Confirmed!
I didn't think of the 3D effect before.
Haha. The sun rays helped me to see 3D right away!
Joy
Here's my entry:
wow...those are beautiful works of art, they must be time consuming too, but the results are definitely worth the time, lol spikey is my favorite, wouldn't want to encounter that in the dark
me too @darkmayhem! Spikey was cute, but looked like it could cause some pain too ;)
Lol...i say the same thing about my niece
Confirmed!
Meeting spikey in the dark sounds like it can cause any kind of mayhem.
Ouuu...nice
A perfect reply doesn't exi....
It's always a beautiful thing to me seeing humans trying to help others grow...it negates the generally accepted notion that humans in their primal form are essentially self centered. This is indeed admirable. @Danielsaori. Beautiful minds
Once again @danielsaori what a wonderful job of doing this game every week! I love it and think you are really opening people's eyes! I also think the 200SP will be something that people will love. That is a very nice award that will mean a lot to all of us (if we win it) :D
Here is my entry:
First @starjewel welcome to steemit! I haven't met you yet but I'm happy @danielsaori's game introduced you to us! You seem like a wonderfully nice person and I love how you express yourself through your art! (I can see you enjoy it by the "fun party" your golden fish are having! hahaha)
I particularly was drawn to Spiky though, she is a cute little thing and reminds me a of girlfriend I once had. Pretty blue eyes, soft pouty lips, and of course the bad hair days that happened more times than not! lol :D
Have a wonderful rest of your weekend and congratulations on being selected to be the post featured in this awesome game #steemitcommentchallenge!
Confirmed!
You are on fire, being the first entry of the week.
I curious as to how that old girlfriend of yours looked like... ;)
hahaha.. she was a cutie!!! I loved the wild hair though :P
My sponsor wanted me to give these out.. He's cool guy!!! ;)
Voted!
I didn't know we can vote for more than one person @danielsaori. If only one vote count, it has to be my first vote to @vonromulobalsamo though. I enjoyed Dave's stroll through memory lane, but vonromulobalsamo got me at his sincere comment to @starjewel about how he can relate to her with being a newbie and shared interests in art.
Several votes allowed, but only one per comment.
Gotcha :)
Hi @starjewel. I must say you're good at your work, with just some wire and other stuff, you made that? Supercool

Hi @starjewel, welcome to Steemit! We're just alike, new steemians although I got my account last January but don't know what to post so I leave it hanging for almost a month and then I just came back from posting just 2 weeks ago up to now. Well, I'm a Virgo person and doesn't quite know anything about your horoscope but to tell you, I feel like water is my element too, I love going to waterfalls here in our place. Im naturally inclined to arts too but the opposite of yours, I like sketching and drawing any thing that comes to my mind through the use of my used pencils (I'm utilizing my old pencils to save money for other purposes :) ). Your Fish ornaments were cute, especiially those little golden creatures having a party. What i like too is that the ornaments can attract neighbors or people passing by in your house - it can add more friends in your life. Much more, what i like about your ornaments is that you spend much time making it and the passion you have on making one of those ornaments. Hope I can learn how to make such too.
Have a wonderful weekend rest and congratulations on being selected to be the featured post in the game #steemitcommentchallenge !
Do you think copying a comment is a good way to join a comment challenge?
You have 24h to fix your mistake.

Sounds a lot like @vonromulobalsamoβs entry.
Thx BeeYou for spotting it!
@beeyou rarely misses anything... I don't know how one person can be in so many places! lol :)
Sting like a bee π
In the sense of moving swiftly.
The comments are pure like silk π
haha... I love the reference @danielsaori... I'm not sure @beeyou will, since she's not a big sports fan... But she is "The Greatest" at what she does ;)
