Tick Tick... Time Flies By, But It's Not The Only Thing.

July 17! Wow, if you don't keep track of the days, you get a shock when you do. Ever since I've been in America, the days seem to run into each other. The week feels like weekend, the weekend feels like holiday. It's been interesting. This is mainly because I haven't had any set schedule to keep.

At times I like this and other times it's a real test. However the past few months have been very good, especially the past 2 weeks. I've been pretty busy (which is why you haven't heard from me). As you know I have been studying the web, focusing on Internet marketing and blogging.
As of know I have 4 small personal blogs, some of which has brought in a little bit of money, and I'm designing 3 or 4 big ones for different people. This takes alot of time. So my days are pretty much full at the moment. The latest weblog is about Relationships, I am working on this one with my dad and will be available for you to see soon.

Now! That's for time, BUT we have something else that has been flying by. Sent by Satan himself to torment us-FLIES. That's right hundreds of them buzzing around the house. We were warned of this, but honestly I didn't expect it to be quite this bad.
  • Early risers:They wake me up at 5am
  • No respect: Mate right in front of everyone!
  • Share: They think we share meals and drinks

I say you can't even curse them, because by the time thats done they dead and you then have to deal with their children. Every now and again, someone will get very irritated, bring out the can and fumigate the house, much to Moms disagreement.

Nonetheless live goes on in Lancaster County, with the cows, corn and now flies.

Some work

The internet is really a college on it's own. There is so much to learn off it. I have taken advantage of this, since college isn't really an option right now. It's so expensive in America.
I've been looking at online marketing and affiliate marketing. It really is another world out there, you just need to know your way around that world, if only you could take a gps. As you probably know, many people have started buying online, instead of going to the store. The general idea is to have a niche blog or website, where you have articles and begin to promote product. The best part is that you don't even need to have your own product to begin with, you can just sell other people's products. My only problem at the moment is that finding a niche is not as easy as it sounds. It needs to be something that I can write alot about and preferably I have an interest in.
Anyone have any ideas?

Another online thing is FOREX, this may sound new to some of you or not. It is the foreign exchange. You buy one currency against the other. Sounds easy? Well, its not. I've had a forex practice account and I seem to be getting better, when I focus on it.

If I had to look at options of different kinds of work.

Option 1: Use what I'm learning now to make various avenues of revenue. Sure it's not safe and reliable. Sometimes, I wonder how it will turn out it years from now?

Option 2: The other option is to be stuck in a, which is not allowed to happen right now anyway for me. If I think about it, I would rather risk taking a chance on making $100 in an hour than working 10 hours in the day and making the same amount.

In my mind, it's better to work smarter with less hard work. Maybe this is just what I think.
How is it working out for you in your life?

Dreaming

If we don't keep considering our dream it will stay a dream or worse, it will become a nightmare.
