Pamulang, July 24th, 2018.
I can believe myself that this is gonna be my 11th entry for this contest. I joined this contest on week 4 after my dear @cicisaja featured me and I have nothing else to say but jumping in the bandwagon and look... I'm growing! I will make a separate post about the total of my featured bloggers, later.

Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succed is always to tray just one more time - Thomas Edison

I have been thinking about to giving up this contest after 2 weeks. Yeah.. I'm giving up to win the contest because I'm not good on curation and my time on Steemit is limited. Now, I'm glad to be part of this community and will be a regular contestant, no matter what my situation is. So, Let's have a look back to the first two weeks of my participation.

I was featured by my @cicisaja in week 4 and then joined right away and here is the link to that old post PIFC Week 4

  • My First Featured blogger was @seanlloyd Rep 41, but his post that I featured in 3 months ago seems to be the latest post from him.
  • The Second Bloggers was @ambriya11nov Rep 50, his latest post was 9 days ago, someone who consistents with single picture and single line too.
  • Third Blogger was @kandywriter Rep. 43, here check on her latest post 2 days ago sunday drawing I think kandy still active and still struggling to get a used cars from her earns on Steemit.

Now Let's see how the Week 5 post was going PIFC Week 5, to be honest, I wasn't thinking about participated that week, but @kandywriter featured me, so I kept my entry submitted.

  • The fourth Blogger was @yokondap Rep 36 and She's still posting her latest post, well.. actually the blog belongs to her brother and he doesn't speak english, though nobody appreciate his works, please check on his blog and share him a little love.
  • The Fifth Blogger was @winruhdikopi Rep 41, He still actives and keep on posting his wonderful homeland, Tano Gayo Pictures, but he didn't write good story lately. Here is His latest post from 3 days ago amazing foto luttawar lake
  • The Sixth Blogger was @tillysfamilyfarm Rep 53 and very active with her flowers pictures for the challenges and life on the farm, but I can featuring her again due to the 200 words policy, LOL. Check on her latest post nasturtium

So The result of my "looking back" is 4 actives, 1 inactive and 1 unsure.
and Now Let's move forward... Here is My Nominess for this week.

@cicisaja Rep 46.95

Yeah.. this is not fun at all, when there's no rule about not featuring your wife, but I think I need to do this to be able to move forward. She shows me how serious she is on Steemit, now. Just Check on her latest post while I'm writing this, she's preparing something to post about normal things she found in the vegetables seller cart Let's Check out What the Vegetables Seller has in his moto-cart

@nomadgirl Rep. 30

Not so active steemian, maybe because she's busy travelling and taking pictures. Let's give her a warm welcome because She has wrote a nice travelling post about Namibia Roud Trip Through Namibia. Her name is Christa, Joined on May 2018 and only has 4 posts, and I hope She will keep Steem on after this.
image isn't she creative?

Thanks for your entry. 100% vote given to this post from @pifc and both your bloggers have been upvoted. You are right no rule against featuring your lovely Wife for a week as long as the post is quality as she always does.

All very good bloggers. I have recommended one for curation elsewhere already. I am also following your Venezuelan. I agree that he has good articles, but little love so far. I will be watching for an extra good one for curation elsewhere.

thank you @viking-ventures, I'm going to check on your featured bloggers too.. They're entering the contest before me.. and glad that they become a regular contestant for this contest too. Gosh.. it's 4 months already!

Hard to believe, isn't it?
I haven't got my post for this week yet. My revisited post was good, but I didn't see anything I wanted to feature this week... So, I'll go hunting here in a bit.

not my blog... I haven't create any eligible post lately.. LOL.. freewrite and travelling always had great bloggers.

That's okay. Hope to see some great work soon. :-)

Thanks so much for the feature! The truth is that I HAVE been busy traveling since I joined in May, but I put my first post up just two days ago and am really trying to make it happen on here now! I really appreciate the support, it's very motivating :)

and you must put all your travelling stories.. you should meet more traveller too... check on @ultrabike, @delishtreats or @traveleranna, I think all of you have the same quality of great traveller and blogger as well

Thank you for the mention! Will check out the other travellers too! @nomadgirl has a rad profile, so thanks for featuring her!

You're welcome.. I know that travellers always encourage and share good experiences with each other, right?

Thank you for the mention! I'm pleased that you like my blog! 😊

@dipoabasch
you and cici warm my heart. You are a true steemian friends.
Thank you for the mention and the support.
I gave up on getting a car. Not as easy as I thought.
For now I am just happy to support my fellow steemian 's and try to build up my steem so my support will be worth more than dust.
WOW already into week 17 pay it forward contest . That's fantastic. What a wonderful group of people that run it. Love your post and the featured bloggers. Keep up the good work.

well.. at least you wtill trying your best to create best post as always @kandywriter, I appreciate your comments, there's so many good things happened here in steemit though the price still low.. but will do my best tocacth up with all of your post too

Hi @dipoabasch, I'm @checky ! While checking the mentions made in this post I found out that @energyadddict22 and @erodedthought don't exist on Steem. Maybe you made some typos ?

Hi just wanted to pop in real fast. I am not online as much this week but will be sure to visit your picks. Well you know I would visit one of the already anyway lol.
Thanks for the mention too.

hello @headchange, hope that you'll enjoy the other featured blogger post too.. well you know how my wife is.. she's so persistent on spending her time on Steemit rather than me.. LOL

Both features are very good. Your wife will be a big whale one day so watch out.

I already knew your wife, as she has been featured before... and she also commented on my posts but I loved to know @nomadgirl! She appears to be a very interesting and adventurous girl!

Thanks for your article, @dipoabasch! 😃

hehehe.. I'm just feeling a bit lazy to find new bloggers as usual, I need to finish my immediately that time because I have to attend emergency meeting with clients... lucky that @nomadgirl just appear right after I check on travel tag... I'm lucky I guess.

will go check on your featured bloggers soon.. need to do the looking back again, now

Hi @dipoabasch,

I'm so surprised you could knock me over with a feather! I had NO idea that you were dear @cicisaja's husband! So I have to say 'pleased to meet you' all over since I'm now clear on your connection to her. It's so lovely to know that we have a married couple within our @thedarkhorse's Pay It Forward Contest!!! Very lovely!

So The result of my "looking back" is 4 actives, 1 inactive and 1 unsure.

Those stats are very good for your past PIFC nominee bloggers, @dipoabasch. That's what this Contest really is about. Discerning which of the bloggers we see creating great content consistently have a high probability of remaining active on the platform and encouraging and appreciating their work.

You've done well curating in the past and I'll be cheering you on as you continue.

I'm also soooo happy about the synchronicity of you nominating @cicisaja. I wanted to nominate her this week but figured I'd choose a couple bloggers who are closer to the 55 cut-off.

I'll visit your other blogger too but have to go offline for awhile first. Just wanted to post and support your blog before doing so. Best of luck and keep curating, @dioabasch.

How about adding one #ulog post each week, btw? The #ulog community is already big and growing and your #ulogs would be welcomed.

Wouldn't have to be long and it's to just share a slice of your day... anything you feel comfortable sharing that was meaningful to you... happy, sad, frustrating... whatever. Just YOU. ;) If you do one, let me know and I'll come and support you.

Thank you so much @angelacs, really love to have your comment here. Nice to meet you too and at least PIFC has a copule who compete each other not just to complete each other.. hahahahaha.

How about adding one #ulog post each week, btw? The #ulog community is already big and growing and your #ulogs would be welcomed.

Well.. I already know about #ulog because so many featured bloggers also uloggers lately, and yes I'd like to try it later, I already try busy, minnow support, esteem surfer and perhaps later will try more steem connect initiatives too. well.. it's gonnabe hard to start ulog because I don't do one day one post too.. but thank you for your suggestion @angelacs, will let you know when I made my First later.

hope to see your entry soon, too, and I will keep my VP to support your featured bloggers

Thank you for the entry @dipoabasch!

you're most welcome Mrs.Courteau
