elenyae I remember I once wrote SO MANY articles on the Obama Economic Stimulus Package...I never want to hear about it again...EVER. Hahah, I think that's one of the downsides of some of these writing jobs. You just have to spin spin spin and eventually you just...

elenyae I still love the Backstreet Boys...and yes, I went to the music store and bought their new album. Paid for it unashamedly as well. I don't really care what people think about my taste in music, because I think that a lot of modern "popular" music sucks.

elenyae I got my freelance job off GetAFreelancer. Sure, it doesn't pay a substantial amount, but it definitely beats PTCs!

elenyae Yup! I've found that the same thing is the case. I make so much more through my writing than I could ever hope to from PTC or GPT sites. I find just churning out the penny articles simpler than starting up a blog as well, because it's like...you have to figure...

I grew up in a generation where the children sleep with the parents and all together in one room until I became a teen-ager where I wanted to have a space of my own. But I know a lot of couples where they let the baby sleep on a...

elenyae Yup! I'll definitely do the same thing with my child when I have one unless space really doesn't permit it. I don't think I turned out with any problems, so I'm pretty sure my kid won't either. :D

elenyae As I said in my post, I've always slept separate from my parents. I'd hardly consider myself gloomy. In fact, I've had a number of friends refer to me as bubbly and bright. I think it's even worse if you continually coddle a child until they can't take care of...

I'm curious. Has any of you tried or are even pursuing freelance writing as a source of income whether extra or main? I've been writing freelance for almost two years now. I'm working through middlemen, although my friends and...

elenyae I'd never have the patience to write the big articles. I mean, I start getting bored around the 500 word mark sometimes so it's unlikely that I'd ever consider taking on a large writing project of more than 500 words. I'd only take something like that on if I...

elenyae aixsha, I think that's probably a sign that you should stop typing in "chatspeak" so much. I mean, I'm one of those people who lapses into chatspeak while talking for humor's sake, but I have NEVER spelled something in sms-spelling while typing up important...

elenyae I say "lol" when something is funny but not so funny that it merits a full out laugh...or when I'm being sarcastic. Yeahh, this is in real life as well. I also happen to use the abbreviations when I'm around friends because *I* happen to think it's funny (even...

elenyae Hahah. Yes, I definitely agree that how we view the government is based on how their policies are affecting us at the moment. I mean, I'm totally biased too because I feel like they've messed up Youth Allowance and done some things that I consider "unfair" for...

elenyae I'm sorry, this seems like a totally unrelated question but what's the "labret"? And, because I've always wanted to ask someone with a tongue piercing, is it really weird the first couple of days when you first get it? Like, do you have to learn how to talk...

elenyae Nope, I had my ears pierced with the piercing gun about 2 years ago and they still threaten to close up if I don't put anything in them for a couple of weeks. As in, you start to feel the skin closing up the hole again. I think it feels a little bit like a...
