I was checking out the tasks section this morning when I saw a 500 words article (writing) task. There was only one vacant slot left, and I wondered if I should finally try my hands on it. I accepted the task a while later, and started my research on the topic. It took me quite a few hours to complete it as I did not know much about the topic. I finally finished and submitted the article at around 4 hours ago.
I was in myLot looking through the various topics a while ago when I saw a message alert. I was surprised and happy to see that the task had been approved. Well, I was surprised because it was approved within a day. I don't really expect them to approve so fast, but I was very happy too that they did recognize my efforts which I had put in for this task.
I will like to ask what's the fastest time you had received an approval for a task you've done in myLot, and how do you feel after receiving it?

Hey congratulations on doing this since I found them pretty tough to do and I dont think ill do these 500 words or 4 paragraphs write about a certin topic. Mainly because I usally dont know words that they offer. If they picked some words that I knew about then I would try to complete it. But once again congrats on doing this.

Well, I will say that it's definitely tougher than the 4 paragraphs writing tasks I had attempted so far. However, I sometimes do like to challenge myself with these tasks, especially when I'm free. I would say that I'm also not very familiar with the keywords they had given often, but with some research of the topic using the keywords provided, I did find it interesting and thus a bit easier to do. It's also good in a way to do the 500 words task as it do helps me in my typing and also I get to learn new things.
Happy mylotting...

Well, I do sort of agree that the task do takes some time, especially the writing tasks. You will normally need to do research before writing down all the information you have absorbed in your own words. Thus, I do feel that the writing task is "not really for everyone".
Thank you very much for your comments. Happy mylotting. Hope you can also find some time to try some tasks too...
