'Kia Ora Azania, I'm Sophie i like the way you described how they tasted how they looked how they smelled and how they feel. It made me get a picture of a big chunk of pineapple covered with chocolate. Maybe next time you could miss a line its really hard to see the words properly. From Sophie.'

Today's Blog Comment of the Day goes to Skye from Tangaroa.


Skye's Comment...

'Hi Anika! I love your slideshow on Benee, she is such an amazing artist and I think she deserves all the attention that she gets. It's cool how you called her 'cruisy and funky' she definitely fits that description! Maybe it could do with a bit more editing (such as, making sure her name is consistent, as in it's mostly Bene but then on one occasion it was Benee. And also adding some punctuation here and there.) Other than that it was awesome. Keep up the good work! :)'

Natalija's Comment...

NatalijaJune 2, 2020 at 11:45 AM
'Tena koe Eden, I absolutely love how you explained how you shouldn’t use your mobile device during a important situation for example, when your phone is ringing you should put it on silent or excuse yourself and take the call I think speaking from my heart that this post is helpful for people who need to learn manners for certain situations, like spending time with whanau etc I feel ashamed that I myself do that when my mother comes to visit me which is a behavior I need to improve on I hope you’ll do better and better in the near future, Nga mihi Natalija.'
