Spending Time with Mylot Until the Wee hour, have you done that?

Philippines
January 9, 2010 12:24pm CST
I am still here tinkering the computer and it is already 2:20 A.M here in my country. I couldn't sleep. No matter how I toss and turn on my bed, it is not just working. So, here I am decided to spend the remaining hours here in Mylot, not primarily to gain money but just to kill my time in an enjoyable way ( money is a bonus factor, though.:-)) Hopefully, I can collapse later in bed.LOL How about you? Have you done this? Thanks in advance.:-)

Yes. Everyday, every night... and my eyes are getting sored now. That's why I'm taking "food supplement for the eyes" everyday to support my eyes..

Hi, Magtibaygom.:-) Why are you doing that? That is pretty odd, if I may say so. Most of us couldn't sleep because of insomnia or restlessness of the mind but I wonder why you stay up late every single night.:-) Is it because of Mylot, too or some other reasons, perhaps.;-) Thank you for participating in this discussion.:-)

Just be careful to put too much importance to your monetary wealth. There are also other valuable things in life other than money, like your health. Young and ambitious, if I may say so, you are. If you can build a career and make your life better by doing that then, you are most lucky to have find a niche to build your business and name. I congratulate you for that. Truly your perseverance and patience will let you go places.:-) Kudos and goodluck to you, Magtibaygom.:-)

Oh, thank you for that... You are so sweet in saying that. By the way, may I know what's the meaning of the word "Kudos"?

Hi Eureka! I work on mylot mostly during day time. I have not attempted responding to discussions till late at night, at the most I will quiet by 10.30 P.M., as I need to get up very early in the morning, therefore, I just cannot afford to remain awake till mid night or wee hours. I think if one can work on mylot during night, there is no harm in it, because at night, you can fully concentrate yourself on the discussions,as the chances of getting disturbed by external factors are minimum. Hope you would have enoyed your 'night' working on mylot. Have a nice day! Deepak

Hello again Eureka! :-) OMG! You were there on mylot right till 6 a.m., what a stamina and dedication you have.. Working on mylot through out the night is really an upheal task, even if you do not feel like sleeping. You can say that I am lucky because I hit the sack in time and go to my dreams..... Please don't consider that you are not lucky, you may be lucky in some matter, which I am not.............lol! It is true that mylot is one of the best options to spend time,when one is alone. Keep smiling! :-)

Hello again, dear.:-) It wasn't dedication and stamina that made me stay up so late and hang out in Mylot until daybreak. It was finding a way to spend my time in a productive and yet not boring way. I opted to tinkering the keyboards since I didn't want to disturb my partner and daughter who were already snoring by that time. I can't read, too, because I have no reading materials that I am so interested in right now. I don't read through internet either. I am lucky, of course, in a different way. I don't think I am unlucky, my dear. I have friends to talk to even during the odd times. And I wasn't feeling alone. :-) I am making sure that I am ALWAYS smiling these days.LOL. Thanks to you!:-)

Hello,Deepak.:-) I surely did have a great time here that 'night'. As a matter of fact, I stayed up until 6 A.M. I was disturbed by my daughter who woke up really early to ask for an energy drink.lol You have a day job to think of and for sure you are not like me who finds it difficult to sleep even in nightime.:-) You are lucky you can hit the sack and dream that early, my dear.:-) If I have a choice I wouldn't trade a goodnight sleep for anything else.But, since I am a victim of sleep deprivation, I am just glad there's Mylot to spend my time so as not to waste it staring at blank wall or counting sheep.:-) Thank you. And have a great week:-)

I do write in the wee hours. I'm a night owl, also, so it's pretty normal for me to write at night. I feel like I can get a jump on the days responses if I spend hours writing in the dark, quiet hours. It is only me and the cat during those times.
• Philippines
11 Jan 10
I do agree with you on this one, Cripfemme.:-) My brain is most active during the night. It is maybe because of the absolutely stillness of the night plus it is also not so humid here in my during this hour. Thus, I have more concentration and I get to come up with a better topic either in my articles or here in Mylot.:-) Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. Have a great day ahead.:-)

last night i was on mylot till 1 am. i have to say we're the same in this aspect. i wanna sleep earlier for health, but i'm a night owl, how can i change it? i can learn English, make friends, and earn money here. that's why i love mylot. but i've got panda's eyes for always staying up late. the black circles on my eyes definitely affect my beauty. maybe tomorrow i should get up very early, then maybe tomorrow night i get sleepy earlier and go to bed earlier. i'll give a shot.

Hello, Canteen.:-) Good morning to you and thank you for responding to this discussion. :-) As you can see, I am here again at this odd time of the day.As if I am getting this as a habit but, no. I just couldn't sleep. And would you believe, I don't mind getting a panda eyes. THey are becoming a prominent features on my face that I look different without those black rings.LOL Mylot is a great way to lay away time that should be spent resting but you couldn't afford. We should be glad there's a site like this worth hanging around in times like this.:-)

Yes I have been known to mylot until early morning hours. Sometimes not so much because I couldn't sleep as because for awhile my husband and my schedule was that of a night owl. We would stay up all night and sleep all day! Now though, with me having a job that calls for early morning goings in, I must go to bed atleast by Midnight... So all mylotting is done on the weekends or during the week at night before bed.

Wouldn't you know it? I say I don't stay up as long anymore, and here I am it's 2:30 something (different by either clock in the room) and I'm still awake. It's early morning! Well Mylot is a great site to earn, learn and have fun! I love it here, and I hope it stays here so we can earn a bit of pocket money as well as Express!

Cheers, SomeCowgirl.Good morning to you, then.:-) Isn't this site a little addictive? but not in the negative manner though. It is also a great site to eradicate stress even for the mean time. :-) I hope, like you, it'll stay this way. :-) Have a great day ahead.:-)

That sounds good for you, still, SomeCowgirl.:-) At least you still have an option to participate here even with your schedule. Spending time at mylot is truly a great way to make most of your odd time. It is unwise to stay up late or not sleep at all doing unproductive things. I hope myot will always be a site that will give us this kind of leverage: to ear, to learn while enjoying.:-) Have a great day and thank you for sharing your experience with us.:-)

As with many sites there is an addictiveness to myLot, not necessary the money making but that it is quite a nice way to while away the hours. Except as with anything which is addictive it can take over your life as you keep checking in for responses, new discussions etc etc. Which was sort of the case with me a few months back and quite often would find myself on here in the wee hours partly because I don’t sleep but also because it’s a good way to fritter away those hours. I am sure many of us have done it at some point or another.
• Philippines

Hello, Sir, that is if I'm not mistaken.:-) Thank you for joining in this discussion.:-) Mylot is partly addictive, I should say. This is a sensible site to while away the hours. Unlike other sites that offer nothing except a bad headache after staring long hours in the computer. Here, we can find variety. Variety of friends, topics ,discussions and ideas. It always amazed me how others view things differently, even the most absurd ones become logical sometimes.LOL I'm learning to appreciate learning from others.Knowing that my knowledge is limited, Mylot has been a great help for me to see the world is a wider scape. You are probably correct by saying that many of Mylotters have been on this same spot as we are right now. :-)

No I coundn't be here that time because I'm sleeping very early. I can't force myself to stay awake that late I tried once but I coudn't think anymore. Usually I want to be here in the afternoon than in the evening so I can think better when I'm not so sleepy.
• Philippines
10 Jan 10
Hello, Agv.:-) I am happy to see your post here in my discussion.:-) Well, this wee hour thing is not for you, then. I'd like to say I envy you for being able to get enough sleep but I couldn't really feel that.;-) Mylot has made it a little bearable knowing that while people like you sleeps I am earning and learning. I didn't choose to stay up late, I am often force to because of insomnia. Now, at least I have a great and productive way to spend my odd time.:-) Have a great day.:-)

Yes I have, and for the same reasons you give. If I don't fall asleep within a certain amount of time, I either read a good book, do some writing, or come online and visit mylot! Karen

10 Jan 10
Hello, Karen. :-) It is my pleasure to see you here in my discussion again.:-) Whenever I can't sleep I tend to force myself writing an article or reading a book but it isn't really advisable since I am sharing bedroom with my husband and daughter. They hate it when the lights are still on during bedtime.LOL I do my readings during the day and I do mylotting during the night, at least that's what I am planning to do whenever my insomnia decided to deprive me of some sleep. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and have a great day, my dear.:-)

i dont do like that,i have no this habit to play computer past midnight.it make me tired if i have good sleeping.especially when i get up tomorrow,i feel dizzy and uncomfortable.if i could not sleep at midnight,i often read the book for a while,so i can go sleeping quickly.
• Philippines
11 Jan 10
Hi, Bingchen. :-) There are people who can't stand not having enough sleep or getting to get to sleep early. And I say you are lucky. Unlike other people like myself and some of our mylotters who responded here, we tend to have difficulties getting to bed early.:-) It is a good thing there's a site like Mylot where we can be productive even during those odd hours. Stay healthy. Have a great day.:-)

Hi, Eureka! Yes, I have been there and will still be there in future. Normally when I couldn't sleep and my mind is not too tired, I would definitely log into myLot and start to browse for the discussions that I find interesting. I have noticed that during these odd hours, I have more ideas to share and I am able to construct the sentences easily, so, it's better to myLot if I couldn't get myself to sleep as it has more advantages where at least my earnings are accumulating heehee... So, what time did you sleep last night?
• Philippines
10 Jan 10
Hello, Corrycrystal. Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.:-) We have that same mindset to post or comment discussion during the times when everybody as normal people go to bed or perhaps already sleeping soundly. I do find this time of the day (night) peaceful and therefore I can concentrate and my thoughts are more organized. It's when my brain is working at its best. I'm not sure how will I fair with the payment for my latest participation here sine this is the first time I have spent a really great deal of time. Will see.LOL I hit the sack at exactly 6 A.M today.:-) Have a great day.:-)

Hello, Lindiebiz. Thank you for the participation in this discussion.:-) I do agree with you that earning a few extra bucks is worth our time, especially those odd times when everybody is already in dreamland and yet we are still so wide awake. :-) Have a great day ahead.:-)

Abndrepc, thank you for your participation.:-)Whatever our motivation in spending time with Mylot, ti doesn't really matter because it is a win win situation wherever you look at it.:-) It is a wise idea indeed to spend time here while battling stress due to insomnia rather that browsing nonsense videos or hunting for online lovers( opps, I hope I'm not offending anyone)... Just keep on. You will never regret your decision of becoming a part of this community. Goodluck and happy mylotting.:-)

Yes i spend my time on myLot as it is really fun being here discussing regarding any thing which you want and more over getting money for this enjoyment over here...Thats AMAZING... I don't sleep much already so whenever i get time i am over here to share my views and try to do my best to respond. Money is not only matter here..matter is real fun in the site... I had posted one interesting topic that this site can make me rich..lol in which i got so many positive and negative responses...

Hello, Chdsandeep.:-) Firstly, thank you for adding me and welcome aboard to this fabulous community of great minds.:-) Your reaction as newbie to mylot is simply an indication that you are convinced you've come into the right place. Being able to connect and reach out to people you hardly new nor met is quite liberating from there's also a monetary reward for your already satisfied self.:-) Mylot is indeed a great way to spend time when you have nothing else to do. At least this site is sensible and worth our time.I, too, did not regret I am part of this group.:-) Happy mylotting and goodluck to you.:-)

hello dear! yes it always happens to me.due to insomnia i have a hard time going to sleep that's why Mylot really helps me to enjoy the night time discussing and commenting on different topics until i get sleepy.then after waking up in the morning it became a routine for me to login first in mylot and see my posted discussion and also my earnings for the day.But I'm not after the earning it's just a plus factor here.I'm after the knowledge and the friendship that mylotters shares.It'll be my 1st week here and I'm really addicted.So sad that I've just discover mylot last week through my bro.It's really amazing site.
• Philippines
10 Jan 10
You are right, earnings here are just secondary factors. Besides, why would I deprive myself of the much needed rest just to earn a couple of cents? I value sleep more than anything else since I am often deprive of it due to insomnia.:-) Mylot has truly been a great way not to be stressed and get envy of others who are already in dreamland. Plus, I discovered some more logical facts and thoughts about life. This site offers a win win situation.You earn while you learn There's no way you can be at the losing end here. Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us.:-) Have a great day and happy mylotting.:-)

Well, today is my second day as a member of mylot. I haven't experienced anything like that yet, since I'm still new to the site. However, I can see myself going in the direction of being an active member in mylot. Hopefully it doesn't become a habit where I can't get any work done.

hi eurekafemme, LOL. It's 3:35 am already and I'm still online. I actually work night shift so every weekends or during my day-off, I usually sleep in the morning or day time. Main reason why I am still up right now. hehe!! I usually up until 6 am or sometimes up to 9 in the morning.

Good morning to you, Danitykane. We almost have the same time zone or perhaps we're living in the same country.LOL. Mine is the Philippines. Wow! What a different life you have. You've become a nocturnal person because of your job.But I guess you can fairly handle it. I am up because I couldn't sleep. I'm an insomniac. I'm glad I've something to keep my brain busy while relaxing (How's that?) like Mylot. I will be definitely be up until the first ray of the sun takes a peek on my window. Have a restful weekend to you, then.:-)Thank you for joining in this discussion.:-)

Boredom tends to get the best of me. Therefore, I spend a lot of time at MyLot. Including staying up real late on occasion but mostly getting up early in the morning. After I had a chance to get up, I log onto the discussions. See if there is anything I can contributed. The good thing is that there is always a chance for something to be happening at MyLot. You just need to find the right discussion. Still its a night way to kill time, really early or really late or any time in between in fact.
• Philippines

Hello, Megamatt.:-) Thank you for joining in this discussion and good morning to you.:-) I do agree with you that you can always find something great happening here at mylot, and that is, at any given time. This site seems not ceasing to give something for its members' fulfillment. I often hang out here mainly for the discussion boards and hardly for the task, unless there is really something interesting or challenging like Sharon Bucks.:-) I find mylot worthy of my time. This site has given me more than just a mere way of laying away boredom. The members are equally interesting as the site itself. Have a great day, Matt.:-)

It is a good thing for us that there's Mylot. Have a great day ahead.:-) By the way, thank you for being the first to respond.:-)

Greetings eurekafemme . I haven't been up that late yet on myLot. Lately I have really been needing my sleep. But it does come in handy if something comes up. Like a few days ago the dog kept wanting out. Well she wanted out at around 5:20am. I usually get up around 6am so, why try to fall to sleep again. So I went on myLot.

Hello, Pastor. Good morning to you from my country.:-) I often go to bed really late but before I used to spent time chatting with friends because I thought there was no sensible way to spend my waking hours until I will finally call it a night (or day). But I realized that why should I waste my time chatting with my so called friends and hear stories I have already heard before. So, this time around I'll be sticking my nose up here in Mylot.:-) 40 minutes of your time with Mylot isn't a waste of time, Sir. It is like a new way of reaching out to brothers and sisters we didn't know exist until we came here.:-) It is my pleasure to see you commented in my discussion, Pastor. Thank you.:-)
