I first tried Smorty when I started doing paid posting job. I did well on them but soon advertisers become less and worse, i never had any reviews from then at this very moment... Never had for the past few months, I was happy with them at first because they do pay me well but sooner I just get disappointed from them. Good thing that there are great other paid posting services that makes me survive this job. They are a lot better than smorty. They never let me down up to now. I'll be posting other services that I'm in to on my future posts.

this post was inspired by my Big Bro MichaelWong's comment on my kookaboo blog few days ago. It started when I commented on his blog and mentioned that I am busy these past few days and sharing that i am doing a bit well on making money online.
@hey sis, thanks for stopping by. I updated my blogroll with all your new links. Keep them coming. I'll add as many as you have because 1) i love link exchanges 2) you're a wonderful person. WOW! You have been crazy busy and I am so happy to hear that blogging and posting has been paying off nicely for you. So what do you do with the money? Do you go shopping? Do you spend it on fancy gadgets? Most of my money is spent on restaurants and clothes. I really should start saving. I'm going to start making the rounds at your other blogs and learn something. Cheers and keep smiling smiley. -mw38
hmmm... what do I actually do with my earnings??? Honestly as far as I remember, when I started earning online for the first few months, I just did nothing... I want to save this money, that's the very thing that's stuck on my head.
But after few months again, I just realized that I'm earning a bit well and I must enjoy and reward my self for the hard work, so I started to withdraw from my account. I don't know the exact date on which I started to withdraw from my account but thanks to Paypal that they have this history on which you can view your account activity up from your very first earnings up to now. I receive all my earnings from Paypal. So if you are planning to work online, better sign up in Paypal now!
According to my Paypal history, I got my very first payment on Feb. 7, 2008 which is $44.40 USD. Then it was on May 16, 2008 when I started to withdraw. From February up to May, I had $369.70 on my Paypal account. But I just withdraw $180 from it, haha... I'm afraid that I could spend all of it so I just get the half from it.
So what did I do? I ate outside with my friends, I treat them of course, buy some clothes... some make ups?? haha... but I'm really careful not to spend so much.
At present, I have more money of course, I will share the details on my next posts, on how much I have on my account now and others. And now that I have more money, I spend most of them buying some groceries for our house, some clothes, foot wear, and treating my family and friends outside. Actually I'm spending more for others than for my self, I just don't know but it's what I am, kindhearted and very giving...*ehem. :D
I think twice and even thrice before I buy myself something but when others are in need I don't think twice to be able to help them. For me I've spend a lot already but I still have more on my account. So I'm still thinking of my plans in the future on where should I spend this money, wisely... Fancy Gadgets? No Big Bro, I just had my laptop (my moms gift for passing my local board exam) and 2 cellphones. I'm not into gadgets really. :D
I just thought of this: as for my short term goal, next month I would like to customize my laptop through Gmask since my laptop's cover looks bad already, I don't know what happened, it looks like a moist or something, I tried everything to get rid of it but i really can't. That's why I want to put a gmask on the cover, that's around $50-60 I guess... I'm really excited now.. :D

I find this beautiful template for my Other site Bloom and Shine | Beauty Tips. I really liked its design but there are few things that I don't like about this template. One is that it is not that wide enough, and side bar is actually on the left. I did a little bit of experiment, just try my luck if I could put the side bar on the right side.
How did I change my side bar from left to right:
go to your edit html tab on layouts and find the /*-- (sidebar wrapper) --*/ codes specifically like this code below: it might be not exactly the same, make sure to preview the outcome of every change after you save.
#sidebar1 {
height:100%;
margin-top:30px;
text-align:left;
vertical-align:top;
width:250px;
float:left; --- change to right! (float:right;)
Then your all set. Preview to make sure it has changed from left to right.
How to make your template more wider.
This is one is a bit difficult. I just did some experimentation to be able to get the right and wanted size of my template. Again I tried to manipulate the codes. I find the URL/Links of the images of the template, edit it in adobe, I made the size wider, from 600+ to 1000, and save in on my own account in photobucket and replace the links with my newly edited images.
Its really difficult and would take much of your time but with your patience and perseverance you can actually find solutions. Just don't be afraid to try for your self, just be careful then you'll succeed. One of my wishes is to have a site of blogger templates, I just learned how to use adobe in editing templates and i think I'm doing well, just a little bit more experience then I can actually make my own template and build a site about it. Can't wait.. hihi...

It started when a friend introduced me to blogging. I started blogging as a form of hobby but after some time, I started to do some explorations and realized that blogging could be a sort of an income, not much but you can have more if you give so much effort. Soon and I started to monetize my blog, made another blog and made another one and another one.... Later I just realized that I became addicted to blogging. Maybe because I'm really a computer person and I'm really frustrated when I went into being a nursing student instead rather that went into a computer course. I have no choice, my mom wants me to. Anyways, I do explore things on my own so I really don't have that knowledge in terms those SEO stuffs, building traffics, designs, etc... etc.. But I am really trying hard to explore and learn by my self. There are many helpful sites there for bloggers on which they provide blogging tips that is really helpful to bloggers like me and you. So I just hope that I could learn more and do more on my blogs... Have a nice day everyone!
