Of warm nights, getting more money, and i love blogging

These are one of the few nights in a year that I really hate: WARM NIGHTS!

And I’m sure that I’m not the only person experiencing it. My parents, who don’t usually utilize their air-con, had had it running for the past few nights (or longer than that).

When I came out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel just now, I was damn surprise that I didn’t feel that it was any cooler than it had been IN the bathroom. And I just had a really warm shower (till you can sort of see mist around)! These nights have been so warm that I had to resort to sleep on the floor since my room doesn’t have air-con. Then I get shoulder aches… Haihz…

Lately, I’ve been thinking about adding my income. I’m working and have barely adequate money to spend but there are just some extra things that I would like to get. Mainly gadgets la, which is why I need to add my income.

I’ve thought of getting another job since I’m only working part time. I work three days a week and joli the other four. I don’t know who else would want to hire me the rest of the four days. Besides, if I commit myself to other jobs, I wouldn’t have enough time to kaypo around in Penang. It’ll be nice though to get a one-day job like Little Penang Street Market. I work from 8am to 6pm and get paid at the end of the day. Ala kais pagi makan pagi, kais petang makan petang. If you know any of these jobs, recommend la…

There’s another kind of easy money job that I’d really like to get.It’s a focus group thingy. I’ve only been to one of those. They round out a group of suitable people and do a survey e.g what do you do in your free time, how long do you spend on the internet, etc. Sometimes they ask you to test out certain products and give your comments on the product and it’s marketability. I got RM100 for that. I love that job.

So lately, I’ve been thinking of earning $$$ online. Maybe by putting ads on this blog, and I’ve even thought of selling something online. Just haven’t figured out what I have that I can sell.

The thing about putting ads is, I’m not really an ad person. I think ads are fine as long as you don’t overdo them but I’d just prefer not to have them.

Putting ads will mean that I will HAVE TO blog. And I don’t like the idea of that. There is a minimum amount of posts that you will HAVE TO write per week and you NEED TO HAVE a certain amount of traffic into your blog. And in this blog, I just have a few regular friends who regularly visit my blog (they never leave any comments but call themselves friends). Good enough for me =P

I don’t really want to spend time to think of how to make my blog MORE popular. And what happens when I haven’t got the mood to write or run out of things to write? *Will have to find out more about this*

I kinda like blogging actually. I like it cuz it’s a documentation of my thoughts and daily activities (I JUST FOUND MY BLOG TITLE! Weee!!!) and it helps me organize my messy brain. Someone told me before that feelings change when you write it down and now I see that it’s true. For me, it’s actually a time where I sit down and reflect on things that has happened and a time I where analyze and rationalize myself, my views, and my feelings.

It’s a very private moment and it’s the only time I enjoy being alone. I very pantang that people disturb me when I’m halfway typing a post. I hate it when my flow of thoughts gets disrupted and that’s why I like to blog at night when my whole family’s asleep. I get really offended and annoyed when someone reads my post as I’m typing it, even though it will be published in the end.

I can spend 2 hours typing a post like this even when things are uninterrupted and words are dispensed from my fingers smoothly. After blogging, I feel a sense of contentment and calmness because I have spoken what I have to say. There has been a few times where I actually felt edgy the whole week because I didn’t write out something I wanted. Funny.

Back to ads on blog – I’ve checked out some online ad companies and I’m actually seriously considering them. So don’t be surprised when you see ads on this blog. I promise I won’t let them uglify my blog too much.

* The title for my blog might seem a bit formal and proper but I think I really like it
