@morgoodie I forgot to mention, one of my dream jobs when I was young (not too young) was becoming a mother. And Yes, the dream has come true! 😀

I always like to be with kids, and I thought of studying child education, but I ended up studying in Engineering, then changed to IT, as I like programming.

Being able to work from home is good. When I studied IT, I thought it’d be good if I can work from home as well, and now I really do. 😀

@grecy095 That’s not shallow at all, I think what you wanted to be are interesting! I have no idea what a procurement analyst does. It’s a foreign area to me.

@slayer08 It’s good to realize what we want, and go for it. Good for you! 🙂

@shohana That’s not silly at all! During my time, most police movies showing on TV are male police, but rarely female police, I guess that’s why most boys dreamed to become police, but not girls. It’s good to be a heroine! 🙂

@peachpurple Yes, that’s why sometimes though I was planning to read the blog posts, I ended up just visit the latest few posts, but didn’t go further.

I like your idea of sharing the related posts in your blog post, I think that will certainly help to bring your readers to read them, especially when they are interested in that topic.

@rapidblue I just think that whether or not we will eventually be paid, at least we are still learning something from the site and from each other. Of course, I still trust the site so far. 🙂

@sunil I also do not have any plans for writing, though I wish I can do that. I have read that some bloggers really plan well on what they are going to write on each day or each week. There is a blogging plan for them. I just write whatever comes to my mind too. It’s just that there are a few sites for us to write now, so I need to think which sites to publish those topics I’d like to write.

@morgoodie Though sometimes I wish I can be a professional writer, and I really admire those writers, I am just not. As you said, we can keep writing and practicing now, perhaps we will move to that direction. Be it or not, I am still happy to just write here casually.

May 12, 2016 at 2:44 pm

@sunil Perhaps you have too many payment requests, hence it seems like you have entered wrong email id quite a number of times. I guess it’s good to just focus when you are entering the email id. 🙂

Yes, I agree with you. No matter how, it’s good to stop worrying too much, but just focus on what we want to do. I always reminded myself with this, as I used to worry quite a lot: “Worrying is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it doesn’t get you anywhere.” 🙂

@dawnwriter Yes, I agree that some of us do not have much online time, and we would like to stay active in several sites, so we just have to do that. I can’t open too many tabs, as it’ll slow down my computer performance. My computer is a little bit old, and the software project I am working on requires more resources, so I just try to limit to two sites when I am working. It helps me to stay focus too.

@slayer08 I totally agree with you. It seems like we think alike on this. 🙂

May 12, 2016 at 2:30 pm

Though I would like to set up my own blog, as I will have more controls on what I want to write and not limited to any topics or requirements (as long as I follow the rules of the blogging world), I don’t think I would like to do that now, as it requires much time and effort to do so. So, at the moment, I would prefer to write on these writing sites, and earn some extra money. Moreover, there are already members in the site, where we can easily get readers and interact with each other as well. It can be more fun too!

I know some people just do not take others’ advice seriously, but some people just can’t make up their mind, I have no idea why. I think these people are really struggling to make decision, hence they would like to get advice from others, from almost everyone, even with different mindsets. I guess when gathering so many advices or information from many people, it even makes them more difficult to make up their mind. 🙂

I am a stubborn person, especially when I grow older. I know what I want, and just go for it. Sometimes I would seek advice from my husband, as he really knows me well.

May 12, 2016 at 12:16 pm

@sunil It’s good to hear that! I guess it’s good for us to live in the moment, enjoy our present too!

@slayer08 Yes, I totally agree with you! 😀

May 12, 2016 at 12:11 pm

@slayer08 Sometimes I would also think there were a few moments or big decisions in my life, how it would be if I have made a different choice. But, I think I might still choose the same path, at that time, with that mentality, with the restriction from my parents. I was still who I was, and I don’t think it would be different. Hence, I think there is no “IF”, when we are put in that situation, we might just choose path A, but not B. What if we choose path B? Then it will be a different story. Even if we could go back, we might still choose path A. So whenever I want to make a decision, I will decide on the criteria at that time. Once I have chosen it, I will not turn back or regret, but if it’s not a right path, I just turn to another path. That’s it. 😀

Yes, I agree with you. If I have made something changed in my life, I might not be able to meet my husband as well. I always believe, we are meant for each other, so no matter how, we still met each other, fell in love, and now established a lovely family. I guess it’s same to you as well. 🙂

May 12, 2016 at 12:01 pm

This happens to me many times, from several people. I actually do not mind if they do not take my advice at all, as I always respect different people have different thoughts. But I just wonder if they do not like my advice, then why do they still keep coming back to me and ask for my advice, again and again. Well, I still give my advice, and it depends on them whether they want to take it or not.

Sometimes it just hurts a little bit, as they heard my advice but listened to someone else, and later they regret. This happened to the same person not just once, but several times. I do not blame her for not listening to me, but just think she should listen to herself, know what she really wants, but not just listen to everyone. If she found she has made a mistake and regret on the first time, she should learn the lesson, but she just keeps making some decisions and then regret again.

I guess there are just some people who are very difficult to make decision or make up their mind.

May 12, 2016 at 11:51 am

This is an interesting question. I might choose not to go back, as I really enjoy where I am now, with my supportive husband and my lovely children. I am happy to be where I am now. I can’t think of any particular time or period that I wish to go back and anyone I wish to meet too. It’s not that I do not miss some of my friends whom I have not seen for years, but I am just satisfied and contented with the loved ones I am with now.

@sunil If the money has been sent to someone successfully, then I suppose they couldn’t do anything as well. Hope someone really received that money and found good use of it. 🙂

@slayer08 Yes, I agree with you. Actually I think multitasking is not a good way to manage our time. While I am doing multiple things at one time, it doesn’t mean I am effective in doing all of them actually. I would actually prefer to focus one thing at a time, then move to the next too. What I am trying to do is perhaps I set 30 minutes for task one, then 5 minute break to do something else, then come back to continue either task one or two, depending on the priority. This helps me to manage my work better. But, sometimes I am just too tempted on some sites, like LB or mylot, as I will keep on reading and responding. 😀

I think it’s fine to watch a video while clicking on ads, as I don’t pay fully attention on watching some videos, that’s why I still click on  PTC sites. 🙂

Though I do read online, as we can easily find many good articles or ebooks for free online, I still prefer to read a printed book. I do not have a kindle, so I do not know whether it’d be the same feeling when reading from a ebook reader. I enjoy flipping the printed book, and I still feel better reading it.

Moreover, I do not allow my children to use computer much, so I still buy books for them to read, and also read books together with them. I think it’s a good family activity to read books together too. It’s just very different for me when seeing the whole family looking at the tablet device, ebook reader or mobile phone. 🙂

But, I just can’t buy too many books, they are costly and it seems like having too many books at home is not a good idea too, it creates clutter. So, unless I really like to read the book, I try not to buy too many.

@haraka I like to have a small library in my home too, though sometimes it creates clutter at home. It’s nice to look at the bookshelves, and just grab a book to read. I like the feeling of this too, and yes, I do love the smell of books too.  So, I don’t think you are weird at all. Being in a library is such a blessing. 🙂

It seems like we have many book lovers here – love to smell and hold the books. 😀

@sunil That’s weird. I thought the system will always validate the email address, especially it is for payment purpose. $387 is a lot of money! Did you eventually get it from Bubblews?

Good to hear that the admin promised you to get it right.  Hope you will get the payment soon.

So, this is a good reminder to all of us too, be more cautious when entering our email id. 🙂

May 12, 2016 at 9:53 am

@melissa1024 I am glad you like to be here. I am also grateful to have found such a friendly community and these supportive and helpful friends online. Isn’t this world very beautiful? Though we are here to make some extra money initially, we get to learn from each other and gain friendship here.

I am planning to take some time to read the blog posts today, so I will get to know better what topics this site accepts. It will certainly help me to come up with a blog topic easier.

May 12, 2016 at 9:45 am

@grecy095 Yes, I agree with that. I just think if I really do it carefully and trustfully, I shouldn’t receive any warnings. If I really do, then I will just have to accept it. I have the similar thought for chatabout too, I just do whenever I still can. 😀

I am just thinking we might get the similar ads, as both of us are in South East Asia. Perhaps it’s just that we check at different time. There isn’t ad all the time, but sometimes there is one or two if I check on it more often.

@morgoodie I don’t think we can use traffic exchange site for these blogging sites, otherwise we might get a lot of referring visitors, which might not be fair to the site. So, we’d better not to take the risk. 🙂

I am really glad that I finally joined Ayuwage. It’s a fast earning site for me, as compared to the rest.

@Anonymous Good to hear Ayuwage works for you as well. I wonder how anonymous can participate in the forum, but I can’t click on your username. 🙂
