RE: Building Friendships on Steemit - Tell Me Something About Yourself and Have a Chance to Win 10 SBD!

in #community7 years ago

So a little about me (this is big, I've tried to stay anonymous on here)... Well half anonymous.

I play volleyball, have done so for about 17years now.
I am the Treasurer of my Volleyball club
I have in the past played soccer, basketball, karate, judo and for about 2 terms at school trumpet and the flute.So I know I have no musical talent.

But I've always been good at being the class clown.

I just started a comedy competition. I won't post a link because I don't want to divert your followers. I would however like to talk to you about participating. You have a great voice that somehow works with you ukulele. Here I spent most of my life thinking only Elvis and that big hawaiian guy could have a ukulele cool then you popped up.

Anyway I would like to invite you to sing a funny song and post in my competition. And If I happen to win you competition, pick someone else's name. I've read your followers comments below, they are far more deserving.

Hi @idikuci!! You’ve been so kind to be a consistent supporter of my posts, so it’s great to talk with you and get to know you a little better!!

So cool that you are still playing volleyball after all those years. You know you have a true passion when it is still fun 17 years later. Unlike the flute and trumpet... sounds like you determined you didn't like those pretty quickly. 😆 Still, it’s really cool that you have it a shot. Learning an instrument is no easy task and you tried with two!

Thank you for thinking of me for your contest! I just read through all of the rules, and it is such a great idea. :-) I can’t wait to go check that tag and just listen to some of the funny entries!

Quick question on the contest... I see that it says original work only, which makes sense. My only dilemma is that I’m not very good at writing songs! It is something I am actively working on, but most of the time I just end up staring at a blank wall. Maybe this will be just the push I need to finally get something completed!

On a similar strain of thought, does the entry need to be 100% original work, or would “spoofs” be considered eligible? I was just thinking it might be fun to take a popular song and change the words to make it funny. Let me know your thoughts on that!

Ps... if you want to put a link to your contest here... I don’t mind at all! Up to you, but I think this sounds like an awesome contest and I’m sure lots of people would enjoy hearing about it. 😘

Spoofs are original!. Well I think so. Sorry no musical talent so I don't look at it like a musician.

So by original content I mean I don't want things that I can get elsewhere on the internet by googling or going to reddit or facebook or whereever. So a spoof of a song absolutely counts. As an aside, back in high school my friend and I (now this will show my age a bit) wrote a spoof to "I'm bringing sexy back" called "I'm shaving hairy back". Unfortunately the words are lost to the ages, but I absolutely encourage you to do a song spoof, would be awesome.

Mmmm okay now my brain is turning!! I’ll start working on making a fun spoof video!

Now that I know “I’m shaving sexy back” is taken... I’ll have to go to plan B. lol

Also, that song came out when I was in high school too... so I’m pretty sure you just called us both old. 😆

Wow you must have been smart to start high school at the age of 7.

Awesome, I look forward to your entry :)

Funny. Let's try an other train of thoughts:

You are watching at a cover in a music store that arises your attention. You are looking around and you discover a poster for a great party the next day. You are stepping ahead the poster to remember the exact date and location.

A few days later you are listening to a song on youtube that you really like. The voice is in your ear and you want to know more about the artist. You are using a search engine and find out that the cover from the music store matches perfectly to the song and you laugh about yourself that you got sooo much attracted by a simple poster in a store that you ignored the beautiful picture that attracted you at first.

Find your own cover. Kind Regards.

I like karate and judo too!
But I haven't played any of them^^

I don't have any talents in music too. But there is a saying that everybody has a talent. So I'm going to enter your competition believing that!

Awesome news. :-)

wow i think i should come to you for tutorials on Karate

this little about your history means a lot to many like me who have tried our hands on big things but have not gotten the recognition we deserve, I just found out from you that being anonymous would even mean you won half the prize.

and maybe wen you win the competition forward you prize to me...... you will be deeply appreciated.

If @coruscate does include me in her draw and pulls my name out. You may have the prize instead.

haha
that is so interesting.......

i will stand up for you if you turn out to be the champion
thank you
