LouRhi's Responses

Some times life just sucks, you know?

Sparks @sparkofinsanity (20471) • Regina, Saskatchewan 1 May 10

I am throwing in the towel. I have lost my mind. Or at least my short term memory. So I appeal to the lot community to help me fill in the holes of my swiss cheese brain..... A fellow lotter is in trouble and needs help...

LouRhi I wish that we lived close enough for me to be able to offer a space on my floor, if I had any more room than that it would be yours. I hope that someone is able to come through for you. Sending you lots of love, fairy wishes and butterfly kisses and hoping...

Do you think eating less but sleeping much can add up weight?

jeanryzel @jeanryzel (54) • Philippines 13 Mar 10

I am eating less but I sleep much as 8-10 hours a day. I have noticed that my weight is increasing. I found it difficult to lose weight.

LouRhi Weight loss is such a tricky thing to manage. Eating less is not always the right answer. You need to ensure that you are eating enough to provide your body with adequate energy otherwise as you are finding out you are left sleepy and lethargic. Eating a...

How do you promote a 'new-born' Facebook page?

luneliza @luneliza (197) 13 Mar 10

Today I have created a Facebook page for my blog but I have no clue what to do next to build my list of fans. I know that you can put a widget or a button on your site to invite your visitors to join, but I'm a bit reluctant to do...

LouRhi Hi Eliza, You are right it is a vicious circle. You should still put a widget on your blog, it is a great start and will encourage current readers to sign up and stay connected to you through the fan updates. I don't know how much it costs but maybe you...

How do I get people to post on my site?

luneliza @luneliza (197) 13 Jun 09

I've got a new blog suggesting different topics, plots and ideas for writers. I've written a few posts myself but I've also got an option for people to post their own ideas. I'm looking for contributors with talent and imagination...

LouRhi Hi Eliza! the website sounds great, give me a link and I will share some ideas. As for getting others well I guess it all just depends on how many viewers you get to the site. Good luck with it and I hope the world is treating you kindly

What's the longest time you disappeared from mylot and what makes you come back?

wondericequeen @wondericequeen (7876) • Hong Kong 18 Apr 09

I disappear from here from time to time since sometimes I get really indulged with my online projects. I think the longest time I have been away was around 9 months or a bit more. But I always come back. Sometimes to catch up with...

The hardest part of interviewing for jobs

Sillychick @Sillychick (3275) • United States 9 Apr 09

The hardest part for me, besides waiting for an answer afterward, is what questions to ask of the interviewer. I know it is good to have questions to ask, but I can never think of any. So, what questions would you ask, for...

LouRhi Not that I have had an interview lately, or even that many ever, but I know exactly what you mean. I struggle with coming up with questions for them as well. What type of systems they use, do they have performance review systems, how large is the office,...

Should I call... or wait?

Sillychick @Sillychick (3275) • United States 6 Apr 09

I had a job interview last week, on Wednesday. I was told they have other candidates to interview, but I would get an answer either way 'very soon.' I am so anxious and can't stand waiting, but I don't want to seem pushy. Should I...

LouRhi I would call. Right now. Before you read another word :) lol Seriously though I think that if you still haven't called them then you should definitely give them a call. I would probably given them a call on Friday sometime and at the latest Monday morning....

What was your reason for joining myLot?

yAks89 @yAks89 (589) • Philippines 8 Mar 09

All of us have our own for joining myLot. It may be because someone invited you, just stumbled upon the site, or because you wanted to earn some money. As for me, I joined the site because I like the people here. They, or you,...

Do you insist on not dying your hair?

wondericequeen @wondericequeen (7876) • Hong Kong 9 Mar 09

I have a friend and he is a die-hard fan of not dying his hair, not that he has a bad experience, but he just doesn't buy the idea. What about you? I, of course, dye my hair from time to time, I know it's not that healthy to...

LouRhi Most definitely yes! Depending on my mood and what is available I would have anything from chocolate, milk, honey toast, chips, banana. Possibly even a sandwich or left over dinner. Does your cooking site have any quick and easy yet terribly yummy snacks?

wondericequeen @wondericequeen (7876) • Hong Kong 23 Feb 09

Skipping Dinner: Do you do it? Often?

wondericequeen @wondericequeen (7876) • Hong Kong 23 Feb 09
