One reason I have not been on mylot is because I am going to college online. I started on Feb 8 and I am entering my third week of classes today. I am doing rather well but I do not have as much time for mylot like I use too. I miss being here and wanted to let all my friends know why I have not been here as much. So here is my question if you were in college would you be on mylot as much?

It is not that the classes are hard I just want good grades. I am here more often now because I am fitting mylot into my day. I do work other sites as well but I love mylot so I am trying to be here more than I have been. Thanks for taking the time to respond to my discussion. Happy mylotting as well.

We all have a finite amount of time and if college is taking up a lot of it then we have to choose what to reduce - it sounds like you made a good choice. I am interested that you say you are going to college online - how does that work? Is your course entirely remote-learning?

Well you apply online and the class enviroment is online. So far so good I know that I love it and like that I can set my own type of schedule. I do my work in the morning and in the evening that is why I am nto on mylot as much. But I am fitting mylot in now because I do love the site and like my friends and the discussions. Happy mylotting to you.

I would not be on mylot as much as i used to be before but i would sit on mylot during boring hours.I have to keep studies first because then i can move up in life fast.I will be active in mylot during my free time.I am doing a part time computer course from my university so i need to concentrate more in studies if i need to clear the paper in the first attempt.I too miss mylot during my exam times and when i do my work from home transcription job.

I wish that I was as lucky as you are and that I had the opportunity to go back to school. That is one thing that I would like to be able to do in my life, I completed three years of undergraduate education, but I ran out of money and was unable to complete my last year. That said, I know that if I was to go back to school to finish my education, there would be far less time in the day for me to be typing comments on here.

Way to go!It's understandable not been here as much as before after entrance into college.I just login in after all the works have been done.You must set your school work as the more important one.

Mylot is probably the first thing I would cut out. I went to school and worked several years back and it was really hard. I know it can be done but it sure takes a lot of time and energy. so I always tell the young people if you can get your schooling out of the way before you start a career.

That's good to hear.. Just like you, I am going back to school this coming school year(June) and i'm pretty excited about it.. however, i am feeling kind of sad because i'm sure i won't be able to do the things I used to do before like mylotting, facebook-ing, updating my blog and twitter account, going out with my hubby anytime of the day and a lot more.. i would miss mylot for sure but i'll make a way to visit my favorite site at least once a week.. :)

Hi momtrying2makeit!
Congrats on going to school!...Good for you and GoodLuck in your endeavors. If I were still in college, maybe I won't spend as much time in mylot as I have now. Maybe once in a while I'll log-on, along with my other social networking sites like facebook. I would ensure all my schoolwork will be done before I log-in. Sometimes, I admit to be a procrastinator. haha. But I would consider going online and mylot to be a sort of reward and a stress reliever after a whole day of schoolwork. ;)

I guess I will not be in Mylot that much as I know being in school requires load of works, from assigment to exams, to school activities. We must prioritize school other than any of the site we have. WE can understand if you do not visit here that much, the important thing is you are dropping by once you have a time so that we your friends is not bothered why you are not visiting the site. Of course you meet special friends here, i am sure they are missing you.

Most likely no I would not. I would concentrate on work, home and school and not worry so much about mylotting, but I would try to mylot whenever I could.

If I were in college, I would still try to be a little active. I would "grill" my friends for information and resources, to questions and talk about what I was learning, I might even start a discussion about the best thing I learned at class...I do that with what I learn in Network Marketing, I love how it reinforces what I have learned.
I appreciate and believe in you.

I'm in University and I'm on MyLot... however much I'm on MyLot right now hahah. But that's because I don't really need to work hard to meet my expectations in University, so it's more like a "meh" sort of thing to me how much time I spend on MyLot. If I'm not here I'm probably playing some online games anyway. =P

I'm in college right now and spending hours on mylot everyday :) but the thing is, I have 6 units left (2 subjects) because I'm graduating. So I have lots of time to spend online :)
