i really like how you connected similes to something i didn't expect - pick up lines.
the change of scenes made this video much more active. still, the "similie" thing freaks me out but i really like how you're very natural in this.
and great performance. you should aspire to be an actor
i reallyyy like this video.
You used the word in many different cases, so it really worked for me :)
I love the way you used the teddy bear, hahaha
and I also really liked they way you changed scenes and moods...
GOOD DEFINITION!
Oh you also did the performance first. Good performance. It was good that you gave a lot of examples how to use simile
Yay! Everything is there. Love the new ending. Though different, it flows. I'll never forget simile again.
